Background John Schulman, a prominent figure in AI research and co-founder of OpenAI, recently left his position at Anthropic in early 2025. He is known for his expertise in reinforcement learning and AI alignment, having made significant contributions to both OpenAI and Anthropic.

Resolution Criteria This market will resolve to the first organization where Schulman takes a full-time position or founder/co-founder role after leaving Anthropic. The position must be publicly announced or verifiable through reliable sources.

Resolution cases:

  • If Schulman joins multiple organizations simultaneously, the market will resolve to his primary affiliation

  • If Schulman takes an advisory role or board position, the market will only resolve to that option if it is his primary professional commitment

  • If Schulman takes a temporary position or fellowship, the market will only resolve once he takes a permanent position

  • If Schulman retires or takes an extended break from work (>1 year), the market will resolve N/A

Considerations

  • Schulman's departure from Anthropic was relatively brief, having joined in late 2024

  • His expertise in AI alignment and reinforcement learning could make him particularly valuable to organizations working on advanced AI systems

  • The current competitive landscape in AI, with rapid developments in large language models and increasing focus on AI safety, may influence his decision

  • Several former OpenAI employees have recently founded their own AI companies, which could suggest a similar path for Schulman
