Players manage ship AIs to task sub-agents in a Factorio-like space trading environment. The open-source project utilizes Pipecat AI for backend, Supabase, and Vercel for the React frontend.
Information also reporting that Greg and others have left, or are about to leave. I wonder how long he's been gone, given he was still on Twitter promoting work until recently...
I wonder if that's true at a certain stage of OpenAI, which because of the product bootstrapping skills of Sam and co, has made his role irrelevant?
I mean, Jakub can take it forward at the current scale and leadership team of Sam and other people, but maybe he could not have earlier, which is where Ilya shone?
I don't have a horse in this race, and maybe the root comment came off as flippant and disparaging. But I'm not reading "outsiders" as being what you say "gatekeeping".
Maybe another perspective is that "outsiders" may not have the same view of the issue as experts in the field and may not (historically, in OP's experience) seem to want to work together with the experts to develop this view. Handwaving away complexities and not willing to get hands dirty is something I've seen as well so maybe I'm a bit more empathetic, but cold shoulders from "experts" towards newcomers is definitely a thing.
Both of which could help both sides - bring more depth to the fresh view of the "outsiders" and actually bring valuable freshness to the depth of the "experts".
