Thursday assorted links


1. “Olympiaders were 1500x more likely to be billionaires and 4000x more likely to be unicorn founders than the average person!”

2. An SRO approaching to regulating AI.

4. Craig Venter, RIP.  Here is the NYT obituary.

5. What happened to Haiti?

6. With the UAE’s departure, OPEC will become much more an instrument of Iranian power (FT).  But also weaker.
