This looks like a happy ending to one phase of SI's history, and the beginning of the next. You managed to spin off CFAR, which should have a bright future, and also managed to maintain in existence an organization recognizably devoted to the FAI problem, without the organization collapsing into dogma or dissolving into nebulosity, both of which are serious risks when there are so many imponderables still to solve. When the dust settles, we'll all be able to get on with the task of seeing how SI fits into the ecology of organizations out there that are pushing at the threshold of AI, and what may lie ahead.
