I think it's tractable.
I'm only sounding pessimistic because when I go on my Twitter timeline, I see all this stuff that makes no sense to me.
And I think there's a lot of reasons for why that exists.
And I think a lot of it is, I think, honestly, just fundraising.
It's just incentive structures.
A lot of it may be fundraising.
A lot of it is just attention, you know, converting attention to money on the internet, you know, stuff like that.
So I think there's a lot of that going on, and I think I'm only reacting to that.
But I'm still, like, overall very bullish on technology.
I think we're going to work through all this stuff, and I think there's been a rapid amount of progress.
I don't actually know that there's overbuilding.
I think that we're going to be able to gobble up what, in my understanding, is being built.
Because I do think that, for example, cloud code or OpenAI Codex and stuff like that, they didn't even exist a year ago, right?
Is that right?
I think it's roughly right.
This is miraculous technology that didn't exist.
I think there's going to be a huge amount of demand as we see the demand in ChashiPT already and so on.
So yeah, I don't actually know that there's overbuilding, but I guess I'm just reacting to some of the very fast timelines that people continue to say incorrectly.
And I've heard many, many times over the course of my 15 years in AI where very reputable people keep getting this wrong all the time.
