I’m pretty ignorant about all this, but this type of loyalty to one guy feels very cult-like. Do the employees actually think this guy gives a shit about them?

Also, the rumours say that the board wants a careful approach while Altman wants to blast ahead without ethical concerns. I'm definitely not on his side

Employees are joining in the coup in the hope of joining Microsoft. I wonder if Microsoft is gonna pull a rug on them and only hire the key employees in the pack and ditch the rest of them

They've already been guaranteed spots at Microsoft, by Microsoft. There's no need for them to pull some 4D chess move.
