This lack of transparency is causing some staff to consider job opportunities elsewhere, with rival AI company Cohere receiving several inquiries from OpenAI employees.

Other companies, including Salesforce, have openly attempted to poach talent from OpenAI, with Salesforce's CEO offering immediate employment and matched compensation to any OpenAI researcher interested in joining their team.
