So if I understand the story so far, Ilya and the researchers are generally annoyed that every time they make some progress, then Sam grabs it and deploys it to production with reckless abandon. Then, Helen writes a paper where she blasts OpenAI for doing so. Sam say's "don't shit on us, we're gonna be rich." Ilya and the move-slow-ers say "We're supposed to be the fire alarm that stops the machine before it destroys humanity. " Sam says, 'Well, I'm the CEO, bitch.' So the move-slow-ers say, "OK, you're fired," essentially pulling the fire alarm. Then Satya, a bunch of investors, and a surprising number of employees side with Sam and say "don't shit on us, we're gonna be rich." They force the move-slow-ers to step down from the board, and get back to business. So the board which was supposed to be the safety check against a rampant AGI pulled the fire alarm, but instead of the machine coming to a halt, it just fired the board and kept on moving fast.

that seems to be the story. they're dazzled by $85B.

If that was the story, the board should have communicated that to the public?
