A year ago tonight I got a slack letting me know that we were silently launching a "low key research preview" in the morning and that it shouldn't impact the sales team.
Happy Birthday, ChatGPT.

The irony of all the p(doom) hysteria: Dario left OpenAI over safety, took what he learned and built its biggest competitor - massively accelerating the AI arms race. If it were just OpenAI, Google & Meta pushing the frontier right now, I suspect the pace would be meaningfully slower.

I have felt this anecdotally but wow the data! 😍
RIP Bip City.
Car break-ins, long a symbol of dysfunction in San Francisco, have plummeted in recent years — from 22,700 in 2022 to 1,764 so far this year, thanks in part to surveillance technology.

We had a ChatGPT awakening in December 2022 and a Claude Code awakening in Dec 2025.
If your company started after Jan 2023 you are AI-native; if you started after Jan 2026 you are agent-native.

There is far more outrage from tech leaders over a wealth tax than masked ICE agents terrorizing communities and executing civilians in the streets.
Tells you what you need to know about the values of our industry.

Big news for me: I’m joining @AcrewCapital as a GP.
At @OpenAI, I helped deploy a world-changing technology and had a front-row seat as companies tried to figure out what to actually do with it.
I'm excited to share with AI founders everything I learned along the way.

We are all so fucking lucky.
We are the luckiest mfers in history.
You can fly anywhere on Earth in less than 24 hours.
Your great-grandfather died within 50 miles of his birthplace.
You can talk to anyone alive from your pocket, for free.
You can start a business from your toilet.
You can learn ANYTHING, instantly, for free.
Nearly everyone before you died young, never left their village, had three career options.
They’d sell their fucking souls for ONE DAY of your life.
Travel the world. Make friends. Build cool shit. Enjoy it. We won the lottery.
You can just do things.
So go do them.
Plan later what.
Fortune favors the fast.

The irony of taking a Waymo - an extraordinary feat of technological innovation - to the SF DMV where I’m told after a 20 min wait that “IDs are down. No ETA.” The next available appt is November.

Governance of an institution is critical for oversight, stability, and continuity. I am happy that the independent review has concluded and we can all move forward united.
It has been disheartening to witness the previous board’s efforts to scapegoat me with anonymous and misleading claims in a last-ditch effort to save face in the media. Here is the message I sent to my team last night.
Onward.

OpenAI is nothing without its customers. Thank you for standing by us.
We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam Altman to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new initial board of Bret Taylor (Chair), Larry Summers, and Adam D'Angelo.
We are collaborating to figure out the details. Thank you so much for your patience through this.
