What did people genuinely think was going to happen with OpenAI?

All the employees wanted to simply get rich and support Sam Altman's and his mission to get them there (why else would be a revolt upon his firing?) so with that in mind, I can't help but to think that self-deception is the best weapon people have to use a facade for their greed.

I frankly have more respect for scammers, at least they know firmly where they stand on a moral spectrum.

OP is comparing scammers favorably over openAI employees, a rather bizarre honestly crazy take. Of course the replies are going to be equally in the same bucket.
