I experienced almost none of the Summit, because I had my ear glued to a phone the whole time.

But, people tell me it was the most well-organized and professionally presented Summit yet, probably because we got e2k involved.

People seemed enthusiastic about my own talk, which is nice because I had almost no time to prepare and was literally reading from notes on the podium most of the time. Many people didn't even notice I was reading from notes, somehow.

And yes, I got Eliezer's permission to steal my conclusion from The Human Importance of the Intelligence Explosion.

It's good to see you guys outsourcing stuff like event management that isn't covered by your core competencies.

Aww, I'm sorry you didn't get to enjoy the Summit, Luke. :(
