2/ AI, energy, and biosciences are promising fields where you can make a huge impact. It's what I would do if starting out today.

3/ Looking back on when I left college, there are some things I wish I had known.

4/ E.g. Intelligence takes many different forms. It is not one-dimensional. And not as important as I used to think.

5/ I also have one big regret: When I left school, I knew little about the world’s worst inequities. Took me decades to learn.

6/ You know more than I did when I was your age. You can start fighting inequity, whether down the street or around the world, sooner.

10/ @SAPinker shows how the world is getting better. Sounds crazy, but it’s true. This is the most peaceful time in human history.

11/ That matters because if you think the world is getting better, you want to spread the progress to more people and places.

12/ It doesn’t mean you ignore the serious problems we face. It just means you believe they can be solved.

13/ This is the core of my worldview. It sustains me in tough times and is the reason I love my work. I think it can do same for you.
