Honest question: Do they not each worry they are each, in their own way, going to be Linda Yaccarino?

The thing with Linda is that while she's theoretically the boss, and Musk reports to her as CTO/CPO everybody knows that Musk is the boss and she's there to... sell ads? Actually I don't know what she's supposed to do, but it doesn't matter, she's certainly not allowed to touch either the product or the technology and Musk can fire her at any point as owner/chairman.

This, OTOH is a just a simple straightforward C-Suite. Sam is the boss, and he hired two reports to handle areas where they have expertise. This might be the simplest corporate thing OpenAI has ever done, lol.

I understand they have each taken steps to avoid that, notably by installing the OpenAI app on their phone's home screen.

In what way?

I think he's insinuating that with a figurehead such as Sam Altman, that Sarah and Kevin might be more showpieces than given autonomy to operate.
