who knows, maybe he had giant gambling debts or other addiction(s) or bad real estate investments and/or lost half of it all to an ex-wife first. things that Jony might be readily aware of. assuming there is more than a kernel of truth to this - and i can't imagine not, the OpenAI comms guy who responded already scrubbed his X account - it doesn't surprise me that Tan was a criminal, it's that he was such a bad criminal

What did he scrub? Looks like an account with posts to me

Isn't scrubbing any of the data on a public platform that everyone sees AFTER you are being sued is not the smartest decision?

Eh, not a lawyer, but my experience with internet PR problems is that the Internet is pretty lazy with a short attention span.

Take something down and most of the Internet is too lazy to dig up an archive and they wander off to find something else to score internet points off of.
