Seems board severely underestimate the amount of friends Sam has

You mean firing the founder who brought all the employees and funding to your company might be bad for morale? No way! Who could’ve possibly seen that coming? Clearly no one on the board.

The board was more insulated than usual from the actual company because of the weird corporate structure of OpenAI and some members were uniquely unqualified.
