And so the book, it's a beautiful book.
It came out really well.
The editors were absolute superstars.
I was able to have more influence over little things like layout and the cover that I normally haven't had.
So that part is actually fascinating.
Pretty exciting.
And then when I was done with the book, I was doing the acknowledgements and I did two things.
One is in my acknowledgements.
I then uploaded the whole book to GPT-5 and I said, I'm doing my acknowledgements, but you're a named co-author of the book.
Would you like to have one paragraph of your acknowledgments?
Who are you thanking?
And it gave this kind of beautiful, if sycophantic, paragraph that's in the book.
And then I said, connected to your question about copyright.
Who did it thank?
Sam Altman?
Actually, that's why I said sycophantic.
It thanked me.
It said, this has been such a meaningful collaboration.
And it was very beautiful.
And I said, this is really sycophantic, but it feels good.
