Don’t worry, we’ll just make rhetorical promises instead, it’s much more freeing. After all, who cares about nonprofit law in a new era with super high stakes? It’s all about agility now that we’re irreversibly in the Intelligence Age, and if you don’t let us abandon our obligations, we won’t be able to successfully bring about the Intelligence Age!
