  I resigned from xAI today.  This company - and the family we became - will stay with me forever.  I will deeply miss the people, the warrooms, and all those battles we have fought together.  It's time for my next chapter.  It is an era with full possibilities: a small team armed …

  Sir, our FOURTH co-founder has left xAI.." [image]

  xAI seems like it's completely cooked. I don't know how you can recover at this point. Grok 4.2 is going to be dead before it arrives. Kinda sad.

  Another xAI cofounder leaves the company. (caveat of there's lots of movement among AI execs)

• @vahidk Vahid Kazemi on x

  I left xAI a few weeks ago. That was short! IMO, all AI labs are building the exact same thing, and it's boring. I think there's room for more creativity. So, I'm starting something new.

  After @SpaceX merger, most of the co-founders are quitting @xai , this isn't looking Good. Something is fishy 🤔 [image]

  They're dropping like AI company co-founders.

  Tony Wu is the fourth cofounder to leave xAI in the past year. He led the reasoning org and began reporting to Elon Musk last year. XAI underwent a reorg a few weeks ago and cofounder Guodong Zhang took over some of Wu's responsibilities, insiders said.

  He really didn't like the idea of going to the Moon before Mars, did he?

  Private secondaries markets have totally changed the way talent moves in Silicon Valley Now if you pick the right company you can be set for life in 2-3 years Vesting agreements will have to change [image]

  This is now a full leadership turnover at xAI

  $100M seed round coming soon...

• @umbisam @umbisam on x

  Wow. YTW is a xAI co-founder. My guess: team didn't like the X merge first & SpaceX acquisition later.

  This keeps being truer and truer. [image]

  When leadership goes it usually means the boss isn't happy with their progress. Not good though.

• @yuchenj_uw Yuchen Jin on x

  xAI co-founder left xAI. I believe this makes it the 4th co-founder to leave. Also Greg Yang is sick. Still wish xAI can build top models.

• @teortaxestex @teortaxestex on x

  Many people are leaving labs with tons of resources (while legends from pre-AI software are joining the labs). What is most remarkable to me is that the first group seems confident they'll build new companies outside. Anthropic folks are skeptical about that.

• @aiandcloudtech @aiandcloudtech on x

  Anthropic is still the only AI company that has managed to retain 100% of their cofounders.

  One of the cofounders of xAI leaves the company
