Shout out to OpenAI for always keeping the innovation and drama on max. In a juicy plot twist, Ilya Sutskever, the brains behind the botched coup against boss Sam Altman, is saying sayonara to OpenAI, the company he co-founded. After the failed mutiny, Sutskever realized dethroning Altman was a fool's errand. Now everyone's dying to know his next move - will he start a rival AI company, retire to sip margaritas on a beach, or scheme with another tech titan? He gave a hint on X.

Now, we wait to see what this brilliant guy does next and how OpenAI will operate without him.

What a wild ride we are on with OpenAI at the moment!
