    You clearly have no idea how much ai engineers are paid, and even less of an idea how their stock options are priced.

      What are you talking about. The engineers the ground level folk that a developing this stuff yes they’re paid highly but they’re not millionaires by any stretch in the imagination. Building a system that will crash the entire economic system of the Earth is not beneficial to them.

        The main engineers buildings this stuff are millionaires. They’ve been making probably $400k on the low end and we know of salaries over a million on the high end.

        Still not enough to survive an actual world collapse though.

        At a 2tr$ targeted valuation (yes that number is silly but it’s also the IPO target) 1$mil is only a .05% equity stake and engineers usually get .1-.2%
