He already had a bulk load from his time at OpenAI.

And? He acted directly against his own financial interests to say what he said.

What are you talking about? He is very young, definitely made millions to not work for a lifetime in many places around the world and is insanely popular with his drama.

In your view he may have sacrificed more millions in the future but I very much doubt he is struggling now.

I didn't say he was struggling, I said he acted against his own financial self interest to warn about AI safety... which he did. I really doubt he figured the popularity from tweeting about quitting anthropic would benefit him more than vesting his stock, as his virality wasn't guaranteed.

Why wouldn't I think he's genuine? What self interested incentive does he have that is stronger than just staying and vesting stocks?
