It's like, oh, we have computers now.
That's not what happened because it's such a slow progression.
And with AI, we're going to see the exact same thing.
It's just more automation.
It allows us to write different kinds of programs that we couldn't write before.
But AI is still fundamentally a program.
And it's a new kind of computer and a new kind of computing system.
But it has all these problems.
It's going to diffuse over time.
And it's still going to add up to the same exponential.
And we're still going to have an exponential that's going to get extremely vertical.
And it's going to be very foreign to live in that kind of an environment.
Basically, I guess what I'm saying is for a while, I tried to find AI or look for AI in like the GDP curve.
And I kind of convinced myself that this is false.
And that even when people talk about recursive self-improvement and labs and stuff like that, I even don't, this is business as usual.
Of course, it's going to recursively self-improve and it's been recursively self-improving.
Like LLMs allow the engineers to work much more efficiently to build the next round of LLM.
And a lot more of the components are being automated and tuned and et cetera.
all the engineers having access to Google search is sort of part of it.
