Executives and managers are the ones who correctly understood which game was being played. The game we are playing is not one of making good products, it's one of getting money from people who both have more money and are stupider than you. They're succeeding at that. We're also doing it, but we're not getting as much money.
In many cases, the people who have more money and are stupider than you are other executives. Sam Altman is arguably one of the executives who know how the game is played. OpenAI is at the front. Microsoft's executives are an example of the ones who got played.
