Steipete on why Europe can't retain talent due to regulations and labor laws
🇪🇺 @steipete on why Europe was unable to retain him as talent:
"In the US, most people are enthusiastic.
In Europe, I get insulted, people scream REGULATION and RESPONSIBILITY.
And if I really build a company here, then I get to struggle with things like investment protection laws, employee rights, and paralyzing labor regulations.
At OpenAI, most people work 6-7 days a week and get paid accordingly.
In Europe, that's illegal."
