A.I. researchers are negotiating $250M pay package...
Sounds vindictive. And yet. According to Forbes, the top 8 richest people have a tech background, most of whom are "nerdy" by some definition.

Those are nerds who did founding rather than being an employee, though. Maybe that's the distinction they're trying to make?
