I've never witnessed a silly Ilya, but I look forward to that as well. I was at a dinner party with him recently, and he was playing with a puppy. And he was in a very silly mood, very endearing. And I was thinking, oh man, this is not the side of Ilya that the world sees the most.

I feel great about the new board. In terms of the structure of OpenAI, one of the board's tasks is to look at that and see where we can make it more robust. We wanted to get new board members in place first, but we clearly learned a lesson about structure throughout this process. I don't have, I think, super deep things to say. It was a crazy, very painful experience.

I think it was like a perfect storm of weirdness. It was like a preview for me of what's going to happen as the stakes get higher and higher and the need that we have like robust governance structures and processes and people.

Yes. Just on a personal level? Yes. I think I'm like an extremely trusting person. I always had a life philosophy of, you know, like, don't worry about all of the paranoia. Don't worry about the edge cases. You know, you get a little bit screwed in exchange for getting to live with your guard down. And this was so shocking to me. I was so caught off guard. that it has definitely changed.

And I really don't like this. It's definitely changed how I think about just like default trust of people and planning for the bad scenarios. You got to be careful with that. Are you worried about becoming a little too cynical? I'm not worried about becoming too cynical.

I think I'm like the extreme opposite of a cynical person, but I'm worried about just becoming like less of a default trusting person.

I think you could make all kinds of comments about the board members and the level of trust I should have had there or how I should have done things differently. But in terms of the team here, I think you'd have to give me a very good grade on that one. And I have just enormous gratitude and trust and respect for the people that I work with every day.

And I think being surrounded with people like that is...
