Greg Brockman is taking a sabbatical through the end of the year: https://twitter.com/gdb/status/1820644694264791459
Will he return to OpenAI at the end of it (and continue working)? I will resolve this market within 2 months of the end of the year.

3.00@chilli resolves Yes? Or are waiting for something else? https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/12/openai-co-founder-greg-brockman-returns-after-three-months-of-leave.html
@Fay42 I'm fine with resolving this to yes, but ideally I was waiting for some amount of confirmation of actual work being done by Greg Brockman.
It's not uncommon for senior leaders at a company going on a sabbatical to "come back", not do much, and then leave a month later.
In this case, his public proclamation that he's back makes that less likely, but it was the situation I was worried about.
@Agh why did you resolve this to yes? the market creator set the resolve date to March 2025 and said they were "waiting for some amount of confirmation of actual work being done by Greg Brockman" the question description clearly states "Will he return to OpenAI at the end of it" (and continue working)?" it's not yet clear if he's actually going to return successfully and continue working. The Information titled their article "Can Greg Brockman Find a Future Back at OpenAI?", which implies uncertainty about that.
@salexashenko This should only resolve if he returns AND continues working– i.e. he comes back and stays until at least March 2025. (the resolution date of the market) There's a significant chance that after returning he won't continue!
