I think I kind of nailed the seven minutes part. But the topic that I chose was basically pointing your energy towards something that you care about a lot, and that makes it easy to dive in and really make a difference in that thing. Obviously for me it's, you know, these tech videos, but these are graduates of a tech school and a business school and all sorts of stuff, so they have a bright future ahead of them. And also, they were kind enough to give me an honorary doctorate degree while I was there. So the running joke is like, autocorrect and all those autocaptions from years ago would always say weird things instead of MKBHD, and one of them was MKPHD, and now that feels kind of like foreshadowing instead. Kind of prophetic. Impressive. Anyway, figured I'd share this in case it was inspirational to anyone who's young, who is graduating, who is also in the right demographic to enjoy it. So I'll let it take it from here.

我想我已經做到了 "七分鐘"。但我選擇的主題基本上是把你的精力集中在你非常關心的事情上，這樣你就能很容易地投入其中，並真正在這件事上有所作為。很顯然，對我來說，就是這些科技視頻，但這些人都畢業於科技學校、商學院和其他各種學校，所以他們前途無量。而且，我在那裡的時候，他們還好心地給了我一個榮譽博士學位。所以我經常開玩笑說，自動更正和多年前的那些自動字幕總是會說一些奇怪的東西，而不是 MKBHD，其中一個是 MKPHD，現在感覺有點像預示。有點像預言。令人印象深刻。總之，我想我應該分享一下這個，以防它對任何年

So I'm told I have seven minutes to really make an impression on you guys. Most of the videos are heavily edited and way longer than seven minutes, so I'll try to keep it concise here so you can graduate. But first of all, I feel like I stand in front of you a little bit shocked at where we are, because I feel like I was just there not that long ago, like a minute ago, I was sitting here graduating from Stevens, but then I checked and it was nine years ago, so 2015, it's like ancient history to you guys, so they say time flies.

我被告知有七分鐘的時間給你們留下深刻印象。大多數視頻都經過大量剪輯，長度遠遠超過七分鐘，所以我會盡量簡明扼要，以便你們順利畢業。但首先，我覺得我站在你們面前，對我們現在所處的位置有點震驚，因為我覺得我不久前還在那裡，就像一分鐘前，我坐在這裡從史蒂文斯畢業，但後來我查了一下，那是九年前的事了，所以 2015 年，對你們來說就像古代歷史，所以他們說時光飛逝。

But when President Favardin invited me to come back here and give the commencement speech to you all, the class of 2024, the school that I graduated from, I'm obviously honored and excited and maybe a little bit nervous, there's a lot of people here, but I want to give you guys two things. I prepared two things for you. One is for now, and one is for later.

但是，當法瓦丁校長邀請我回到這裡，向你們，向我畢業的學校 2024 屆的同學們，發表畢業典禮演講時，我顯然感到榮幸和激動，也許還有點緊張，因為這裡有很多人，但我想給你們兩件事情。我為你們準備了兩樣東西。一個是現在的，一個是以後的。

So I'll start with the thing for now. And I'm going to start with a quote, actually.

所以，我現在就從這件事說起。事實上，我想從一句話開始。

So it goes like this. As a large language model, I cannot help with your request to write a commencement speech. Just kidding. I'm kidding. Kidding. I wrote this whole thing myself. I thought you guys would like that. But I'm actually going to start with a quote from an Ultimate Frisbee teammate, so I know that's not the reason I'm here, but a lot of you guys may know I played Ultimate Frisbee when I went here to Stevens. I still play to this day. I remember really, really early in my Ultimate Frisbee career, sort of the beginning of freshman year, there's a tryout process, and then the team was formed. And

事情是這樣的作為一個大型語言模型，我無法滿足您撰寫畢業致辭的要求。開個玩笑。我在開玩笑。開玩笑的這都是我自己寫的我想你們會喜歡的。但我要引用一位極限飛盤隊友的話開頭，我知道這不是我來的原因，但你們很多人可能知道，我在史蒂文斯上學的時候玩過極限飛盤。直到現在我還在玩。我記得在我極限飛盤生涯的早期，也就是大一剛開始的時候，有一個選拔過程，然後隊伍就成立了。然後

I remember we went to our first tournament. We were all in the huddle before our first game as a team. And the captain said, hey, guys, everybody take a beat, just take a deep breath, and just look around this huddle for a second. Like, really appreciate this moment of becoming a team for the first time. Because you're going to blink, and the whole season is going to be over way faster than you think. And he was totally right. You know, there's obviously we played the game, there was lots of long points, and then lots of long weekends of practices and travel, and it's a grind, but we loved every second of it, and we all evolved a lot as teammates and as players, and it was great. But at the end of the season, we could all remember that first huddle. We remembered that moment of just taking a beat. So while I have the chance, I want to encourage you all, sitting here with the gowns and the hats and everything, to just take a beat and look around at your fellow classmates and your friends, people who you just spent a lot of time with, your families here. This is your day to celebrate, and starting the next chapter of your life, but I also promise you that you're going to blink, and it's going to be ten years later. So take a minute to enjoy where you are now. Now for later. I give you that for now, something for later.

我記得我們第一次參加比賽。第一場比賽前，我們在隊內集合。隊長說，嘿，夥計們，大家靜一靜，深呼吸，環顧四周。就像，真的要好好珍惜第一次成為一個團隊的這一刻。因為一眨眼，整個賽季就要結束了，比你想象的要快得多。他說得完全正確你知道，很明顯我們打了比賽，有很多漫長的賽點，然後又有很多漫長的週末訓練和旅行，這是一種磨練，但我們熱愛其中的每一秒，作為隊友和球員，我們都進化了很多，這很棒。但在賽季結束時，我們都還記得第一次集合的情景。我們都記得那一刻，我們只是打了個節拍。所以，趁著這個機會，我想鼓勵坐在這裡、穿著禮服

Here's the thing. I've always struggled with giving advice, I feel like. I don't know if

是這樣的我一直都很難給出建議，我覺得。我不知道

President Favarda knew that when he invited me to give a commencement speech, but I feel like I get asked to give advice a lot, and I don't really know what to say. Typically, it's like, here are some things that I learned, and I can pass them along to you, but I've got to be honest. I feel like a lot of my success comes from giving advice, and I feel like a lot of my success, you know, was the state of the world, finding a niche, capitalizing on good luck, like there wasn't really any playbook or set of things that I strictly followed that I can pass along. It kind of felt just like it was something that I really dove into because it was exciting to me. So now I'm in this bizarre position of trying to give advice, but the more I've thought about it, the more I feel like the best advice that I can give you is to find something that gets you excited. That's really what it comes down to. So you're all sitting here today because you've made it to the end of a very challenging process called college, starting the next chapter of your lives, and you're armed with a bunch of tools that you picked up along the way. You're basically at a launching pad. You just need somewhere to point that energy, somewhere to dial it up all the way to 100. And so I really feel like my best advice for you is this is the perfect time to take a minute and ask yourself those big questions like who am I? What do

法瓦爾塔校長在邀請我做畢業典禮演講時就知道這一點，但我覺得我經常被要求提供建議，而我真的不知道該說些什麼。通常情況下，我會說，這是我學到的一些東西，我可以把它們傳授給你們，但我必須實話實說。我覺得我的很多成功都來自於給別人的建議，我覺得我的很多成功，你知道，是世界的現狀，找到了一個利基，利用了好運氣，就像真的沒有任何劇本或一套我嚴格遵循的東西，我可以傳授給你。這種感覺就像我真的投入其中，因為它讓我興奮。所以，現在我處在一個試圖給出建議的奇怪位置，但我越想越覺得，我能給你的最好建議就是找到能讓你興奮的東西。

I really want to do? What do I care about? How do I want to make an impact? How do I want to give back? What makes you feel excited? What makes you feel nervous? You've already been challenged, clearly, and you've made a lot of tough choices. You've had to learn new skills. I went to Stevens, I know. You had to solve problems in innovative ways.

我真的想做什麼？我關心什麼？我想如何產生影響？我想如何回饋社會？什麼讓你感到興奮？什麼讓你感到緊張？很顯然，你已經接受了挑戰，做出了很多艱難的選擇。你必須學習新的技能。我上過史蒂文斯大學，我知道。你必須以創新的方式解決問題。

You had to work alone. You had to work in groups. You had to make time for things that are really challenging. So you have all these tools, but purpose is also a tool. And to me, I feel like it's the most powerful one. It won't necessarily be a smooth ride finding what that is for you. Some of you are already sitting here like I know what it is. I know what I want to do. Some of you, it may take trying something. It may be taking a risk.

你必須獨自工作。你必須分組工作。你必須擠出時間去做真正具有挑戰性的事情。是以，你擁有所有這些工具，但目的也是一種工具。對我來說，我覺得這是最強大的工具。找到自己的目標並不一定會一帆風順。你們中的一些人已經坐在這裡，好像我知道那是什麼。我知道我想做什麼。有些人可能需要嘗試一些東西。這可能需要冒險。

For some of you, like me, it may be something that literally doesn't exist yet, which is very exciting. But whatever it is you decide to do, making a dent in the universe is much easier when you care deeply about that part of the universe. So for me, it was tech videos on the internet, but for all of you, the sky's the limit, clearly. So I'll end with this. Graduation is an exciting time. It's also a great word. Graduation. It's also a great album. But you actually, you graduate many times as a person, I think. You continue to level up and build and graduate over and over again yourself. I mean, obviously, wow, you obviously already had high school graduation. You're having, for many of you, this is your formal education graduation, but you might also have your first job graduation or your second job graduation or learning a new skill graduation or overcoming a new fear graduation or maybe you talk to someone and you get inspired and absorb some information that unlocks a new part of your brain. That's another graduation right there. So class of 2024, I wish you many more graduations. This certainly will not be the last one. Congrats on getting to this launching pad and from one duck to another, congrats and good luck. Thank you.

對你們中的一些人來說，就像我一樣，這可能是一個還不存在的東西，這非常令人興奮。但無論你決定做什麼，當你對宇宙的那一部分深感關心時，在宇宙中有所作為就會容易得多。所以，對我來說，這只是互聯網上的科技視頻，但對你們所有人來說，天空顯然是無限的。最後，我想說的是畢業是一個激動人心的時刻。這也是一個很棒的詞。畢業。也是張很棒的專輯但實際上，我認為，作為一個人，你會畢業很多次。你會不斷地提升自己，不斷地成長，不斷地畢業。我的意思是，很明顯，哇，你顯然已經高中畢業了。對你們中的很多人來說，這是你的正規教育畢業，但你也

Thank you.

謝謝。
