Mass Resignation from xAI

19 points by hargup ↗ HN
Seems like xAI is having a Fairchild semiconductor moment, saw at least half a dozen people posting they are leaving xAI, and seems like all of them are starting something new, together.

Redundancies after the merger? “Resigning” to save face?
TheAlchemist
Is that surprising ? The merger doesn't make any sense at all. Everybody knows it's a bailout and Musk's empire is running out of money - it's almost the last attempt to save it. He still has 2 more jokers left - SpaceX IPO or merge SpaceX with Tesla. But the writing is already on the wall.

this gonna age like milk

this move denominates everything by energy instead of money

those who left are anticipating it too, everything else theyll build is towards that

you either see things clicking together or you dont

Musk burns through people at his companies. This isn’t that surprising. They’ll trick someone else into working there.

How many people work there that six would be considered "mass?"

What are they quitting from? Twitter? Xai? Spacex?
