Is it a classic or a modern sabbatical?<p>In a modern academic sabbatical, researchers generally visit a different university and work on a problem adjacent to their regular research interest (there's a whole paper about this phenomenon: <a href="https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/1360080X.2022.2140888" rel="nofollow">https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/1360080X.2022.2...</a> )<p>Sounds more like a classic, 'period of rest', sabbatical. Seeing where someone from OpenAI goes on a modern sabbatical would be interesting.
