Lilian Weng (@lilianweng) posted that leaving was “a hard and sad decision,” and that she shared a message with colleagues at **Thinky** (Thinking Machines). Verified post text: > It is a hard and sad decision. I shared this message with folks at Thinky. Thank you all for the time together♥️ Just as the last sentence in my message: The future worth building is human. Neutral summary of the accompanying note (as reported from the image/message she shared): she said she did not feel able to continue at the pace a startup requires, after months of stress/workload that had pushed beyond what her health could sustain. Keep this as a first-person departure signal—no further speculation.
