It's really, REALLY hard to keep an engineer on the inside from stealing your code. All it takes is a thumb drive or an email.
The biggest deterrent is the legal ramifications, as this engineer has likely destroyed his career and will be going to jail for corporate espionage.
He's up 7 mil, plus whatever he got from OpenAI for the corpo espionage. Even minus taxes, he's probably golden for life, what's a year or two in rich-person-jail?
in a few weeks, it will be
better to throw a known opportunist who would steal secrets for profit under the bus than risk going under trying to defend him.
