The moves have led some to wonder just how close OpenAI is to a long-rumored breakthrough of some kind of reasoning artificial intelligence if high-profile employees are jumping ship (or taking long breaks, in the case of Brockman) so easily. As AI developer Benjamin De Kraker put it on X, "If OpenAI is right on the verge of AGI, why do prominent people keep leaving?"

There's certainly been no evidence of anything approaching AGI, I'm not sure why people might think it's gonna spontaneously occur somehow given the current directions.
