The company is run, somehow, by people who have never run much of anything in their lives. Results are as expected.

How that situation came about would be an interesting story in itself.

Does that not apply also to Sam Altman?

When he got started, yeah. I don't know how he became a YC partner without investing a lot more than he would've netted from the Loopt exit.

At this point I don't think anyone can question his track record, based on OpenAI's success at both R&D and fundraising. They are apparently trying to get him back onboard, if that means anything...
