Musk to Greg Brockman, Ilya Sutskever — “They will do whatever it takes to obtain what we develop.”
Musk says that they will do whatever it takes to obtain what OpenAI develops and calls it maybe another reason to change course, linking to a mobile.nytimes.com article. He offers Brockman and Sutskever each a Founder Series Model 3, notes these are the earliest cars produced and not available to the public, offers the same to a few others at OpenAI such as Wojciech, and later writes that a dinner was extremely important and the road ahead will be more difficult but exciting.

By the way, in appreciation for what you've done to get OpenAI to where it is today, I would like to give you each a Founder Series Model 3. These are the earliest cars produced and are not available to the public.
If there are a few others at OpenAI who you think also really deserve one (maybe Wojciech?), I am happy to do the same for them.
Hope you like it!
Elon

Cool, that turned out to be an extremely important dinner!
The road ahead will definitely be vastly more difficult than the past, but extremely exciting.
