> With an overall mass of 3,300 tonnes, the wall must have been the work of a substantial settled community. And to have lasted 7,000 years, it was clearly an extremely solid structure.

> "It was built by a very structured society of hunter-gatherers, of a kind that became sedentary when resources permitted. That or it was made by one of the Neolithic populations that arrived here around 5,000 BC," said archaeologist Yvan Pailler.

> Who is its auditor? It’s a simple question, which ought to have a simple answer.

> Most public companies in OpenAI’s notional market cap weight class are audited by one of the Big Four: Deloitte, EY, KPMG or PwC. At the lower end of large-cap US stocks, names like Grant Thornton or BDO creep in.

> OpenAI’s auditor is not disclosed. Now, as a private company, it is under no obligation to release this information — but it’s not trivial. The lack of information has left several people we’ve spoken to on Wall Street a bit confused.
