Last summer he left OpenAI, started an AI investment firm, wrote a long essay, and showed up on a bunch of podcasts.
But after June or July, it seems like he just disappeared. No updates, no interviews, nothing.
No matter what you think of him, he had strong opinions and interesting ideas. Feels weird that he would just go silent.
Does anyone know what he’s been doing?

He’s probably busy running his investment fund. He only seems to go public when it benefits the fund. If you look at the timing of his podcast appearances and his essay, it lines up with when he was trying to raise money.

Why does it seem strange? He never seemed like someone who wanted to be in the spotlight all the time. He just does his thing.

I think about this once or twice a month. Wonder where he went.

He seems to have had a good grasp on where things were going with AGI. Maybe he just stepped back to focus on bigger things?

He went on that one podcast and then vanished. Makes you wonder…
