風投稱一萬名AI員工已成為百萬富翁
門洛風投合夥人迪迪·達斯聲稱,約一萬名在openai、anthropic、nvidia和xaic的員工在過去五年中積累了超過2000萬美元的財富,這讓矽谷的其他人感到被拋在後面。
venture capitalist deedy das of menlo ventures describes a 'frenetic' mood in san francisco driven by an extreme wealth gap created by the ai boom. he estimates that around 10,000 individuals at companies such as openai, anthropic, nvidia, and xai have accumulated over $20 million in wealth recently, with 75 openai staff becoming multimillionaires last fall alone. meanwhile, the majority of software engineers face layoffs, stagnation, and a feeling that 'why even work at all for peanuts,' as mid-level management roles are hollowed out. das notes that even the sudden winners often feel a lack of purpose, illustrating how the sector has shifted from rewarding hard work to rewarding the luck of being at the right firm.
