The speed and strain of OpenAI’s “bias towards action”
An employee about a week into the job says a suggestion to grab lunch can become a calendar invite within five minutes. They admire the energy but say it can feel like everything is “behind a hair trigger.”
TLDR
After about a week at OpenAI, an employee describes an “absurdly high bias towards action.” They say a casual discussion about a possible future can lead to a PR waiting at their desk, while a lunch suggestion can become a calendar invite within five minutes. The pace has downsides, they say, but they consider that energy hard to teach or regain once lost.
