> Joe Rogan could fire all his staff

I think the premise is that it is only ever one person.

> Meta "bought" Alex Wang for $14.3B.

> Ilya Sutskever's "business" (really his skillset/personal brand) was worth $1B+ the minute he stepped away from OpenAI.

And that we're not talking about a personal brand, but a real company with real ongoing revenue.

Basically it's a shortcut for the belief that all those other people that founders hire could be replaced with AI.
