Key Points and Considerations
- Talent Acquisition: SSI is focused on hiring individuals with "extraordinary capabilities" and good character, rather than emphasizing traditional credentials.
- Computing Power: The company plans to partner with cloud providers and chip companies to meet its computing needs.
- Corporate Structure: Unlike OpenAI's complex structure, SSI has adopted a regular for-profit structure.
- Potential Conflicts: The involvement of a16z and Sequoia in both SSI and OpenAI raises questions about potential conflicts of interest.
