Most of this is interesting but unsurprising. Having reflected on it for a bit, I do find one thing surprising. It is very strange that Illya doesn’t know who is paying his lawyers. Really, he assumes that it is OpenAI and is apparently fine with that. I’m surprised he isn’t concerned about a conflict of interest. I assume he has enough money that he could hire his own lawyers if he wanted. I would expect him to hire at least one lawyer himself to ensure that his own interests are represented and to check the work of the other lawyers.
