      He’s the guy that tried to stay true to the mission, realized that Sam was becoming a problem. Had little business sense to calculate the drama that ensued.

      Realized that openAI getting destroyed in a single week was worse then having Sam run it. (Micrososoft and google where just going to gobble up the void)

      Then was forced into compliance by Sam who had conditions to return. Add in the fact there long time Personal friends, Sam is a super high level speaker while Ilya usually keeps to themselves. The super stressful days everyone was on during the times.

      You may understand why he didn’t want to continue fighting and just eased into a slow leave to do better elsewhere.

        Well the same letter he signed also more or less threatened the company with most of its employers quitting and going to Microsoft to join Sam. So saving their AI technology from clutches of other big tech story does not really add up. It looks more like a failed power grab and then switching back sides when things didn’t go well.
