Mass Resignation from xAI

12•hargup•13h ago
Seems like xAI is having a Fairchild semiconductor moment, saw at least half a dozen people posting they are leaving xAI, and seems like all of them are starting something new, together.

Redundancies after the merger? “Resigning” to save face?
TheAlchemist•11h ago
Is that surprising ? The merger doesn't make any sense at all. Everybody knows it's a bailout and Musk's empire is running out of money - it's almost the last attempt to save it. He still has 2 more jokers left - SpaceX IPO or merge SpaceX with Tesla. But the writing is already on the wall.

If I thought that AI was going to change the world, and I found out that my AI company was instead going to be used to raise money to cross-fund something else that was failing, I might well leave too.

If you thought that, you would be really delusional about what is actually failing.
AnimalMuppet•7h ago
Care to elaborate?

Musk burns through people at his companies. This isn’t that surprising. They’ll trick someone else into working there.

How many people work there that six would be considered "mass?"
sloaken•4h ago
Valid point. I am often amazed the reports (all sides of the political aisle) will list a number without context. Twice as many as last year. Went from 1 to 2, and we want you to be upset. It forces me to check multiple sites to understand the real numbers.

In the past I have attributed this to people being bad with numbers, but it is more and more apparent it is to hid the real meaning and push an agenda.

What are they quitting from? Twitter? Xai? Spacex?
