But you would need to convince the rest of the board with _something_, right? Like to not only fire this guy, but to do it very publicly, quickly, with the declaration of lying in the announcement.

There are 3 other people on the board, right? Maybe they're all buddies of some big masterminding, but I dunno..

The one thing they all have in common is being AI safetyists, which Sam is not. I’d bet it’s something to do with that.
