Man really switched to his wife’s account and thought no one would be able to track him there. Calling this amateur would be an insult to amateurs.

How does someone this dumb get hired at openai?

50% is looking and sounding the part, the other 50% is having a good university on your resume / good networking.

Yeah that. After three bad experiences in a row they are no hire status.

There’s plenty of better people out there who just aren’t interested in that sort of stuff.

Smart people can do dumb things. Their LinkedIn profile looks typical for an OpenAI engineer.

We also don’t know if this person did it under duress.

If you think about it that’s more likely than any other explanation.

Using AI to pass the interview of course! I wish I was joking...

It's AI inbreeding all the way down.

Probably went to a prestigious university or had connections.

Technical skill and common sense/street smarts are usually inversely related.

I could def espionage better. Does that qualify me to work at OpenAI?

You might want to have a seat first if you want this explained.

It's so bad, it seems fake. He gets a little fine or something, along with a large backchannel payment, all to keep attention off of something else...

But that's crazy talk
