When you take a shot at someone influential and miss, falling on your own sword is a kinder fate than what will happen when they turn your direction.

Did he miss? Sam was fired.

This subthread isn't about the article; we're on a tangent about OpenAI.

He was fired [at] and didn't die. Now he's back, and looking for revenge.

Board hired him back. They could have said no and stuck to their guns. No shareholders to give them the boot.

Then they’d be falling on their own swords. Literally the whole company was ready to walk away. Never in history has that ever happened, as far as I know.
