I'm confident that GP is good faithed though. Maybe I am falling for it. Who knows? It doesn't really matter, I just wanted to be nice to the guy. It takes some balls posting as OpenAi employee here, and I wish we heard from them more often, as I am pretty sure all of them lurk around.

It's the only reasonable choice you can make. As an employee with stock options you do not want to get trashed on Hackernews because this affects your income directly if you try to conduct a secondary share sale or plan to hold until IPO.

Once the IPO is done, and the lockup period is expired, then a lot of employees are planning to sell their shares. But until that, even if the product is behind competitors there is no way you can admit it without putting your money at risk.
