Read the article and where it talks about accelerated vesting of Groq shares for both the leadership team that goes to Nvidia and the regular employees that stay at Groq. Is that even guaranteed? It's not an IPO or an acquisition, so why would vesting schedules change?
I would assume there's no accelerated vesting but there's also nothing stopping Nvidia from issuing refreshers of equal value to unvested options. That's been a common recruiting tactic for a long time.
