    We need a new rule that mandates every such "I am leaving <AI company> because of <concern>" post to disclose how much equity they have in the company and how much they have already cashed out. Easy to suddenly find a moral compass when you, your kids and their kids never have to worry about working for money again.

    Mr Robinson if you are reading this – if you are truly concerned about AI safety share proof of donation of 100% of your OpenAI earnings and equity towards undoing the damage you have done to society during your time there.

    In the absence of that this is simply a career pivot into being an AI "influencer" and/or raising money for a new scam.

      Regardless of whether someone did earn a nest egg, raising an alarm still matters for the rest of the world
