I worked with Kate for 10 years at Meta and the main word that comes to mind is “legend”. So happy to be reunited!.
She’s all signal. No noise. Highest integrity leader I know. Very good news: for OpenAI, for all of us.

Thanks @fromedome! 🙏.
Big. @fidjissimo has excelled as CEO of Instacart, which is a great product, a complex (and growing) business, and, in my personal experience, a well-run company. But this seems like a once-in-a-lifetime kind of opportunity, for someone who very clearly gives a shit.

So excited to be joining @openai and contributing to its mission. Thank you @sama for the opportunity- it will be such a privilege to work with such a talented team on one of the most important and ambitious endeavors in history. I’ll remain CEO of @Instacart for the next few.
so excited that @fidjissimo is joining openai in a new role: ceo of applications, reporting to me. i'll remain ceo of openai, but in this new configuration i'll be able to increase my focus on research, compute, and safety. these are critical as we approach superintelligence.

Such a fascinating prompt and I love the answer I got! (The answer for @tobi is so spot on too!) .Prompt: “Tell me something incredibly special or unique you've noticed about me, but you think I haven't realized about myself yet.”
