This closes with: "If you are chasing something you think you want or need, or are doubting whether you are enough, take a minute and give this a listen. It had a big impact on me at a pivotal time." An inspirational speech? Nope! It’s a link to a nearly 2-hour DJ set in Bali.

Really fun: To end the year, we asked a bunch of smart folks to write what they thought OpenAI becomes. They range from OpenAI is Lehman Bros. to OpenAI is Salesforce to OpenAI is Taco Bell. Take a stroll through here: https://t.co/s3wihEPq3z
