So why is it highly plausible that Altman could return to OpenAI as its CEO after a weekend off? As always, follow the money.
Throughout the history of the tech industry, whenever something threatened a power law-style return of 20, 40, 100 times invested capital, the VCs took whatever extreme measures were necessary to protect their investment.
But what is clearly being said in that possibility is that the money behind OpenAI believes that there's no one better than Altman to continue to grow the value of OpenAI such that it pays off for them. Even better, let's say, this blip creates an opportunity to do some disaster capitalism, if you will, and correct the fundamental flaw in OpenAI's business.
