Oddbean new post about login | logout I’m still keeping a close eye on OpenAI because I’m fascinated to see if the company can stay at the top after losing its star engineers.
It can stay ahead because it has completed the product verification phase of chatGPT. It has crossed the threshold from product 0 to 1. Now it just needs to add 0 after 1. 100, 1000, 10000, 100000000. Adding 0 after that means it can continue to develop with capital and existing AI data and product models. But without star engineers, it may lose the opportunity to create new innovative products.
