Like, okay, I've got a four-way trade happening here.

Here we go.

I am hearing more about it.

It's very cool.

So I do want to give a shout out to our buddies at Sakana because they are now the highest valued private company in Japan.

Wow.

And that happened, I believe, over the weekend.

So go, go buds.

Sakana.ai, they were evolutionary model merge.

It was where we started to look at them, where you combine three models with differing abilities into a model that could get more ability.

There are a bunch more that we said.

It's just the names have not stuck as much.

There's a machine, model machine.

There's like, yeah.

And, and it still is, I think, because the idea was you could take relatively small models and do the process.

It's a research lab.

So like they give you the recipe because of course they want to replicate it to make sure that this works.

But I, I went in at one point and I was like, okay.

like how long would this take and how much would it cost right and it was like oh maybe like you could do it probably for 250 and 250 to get to the um what I was looking for which I think was music like two music uh models and a language large language model to be able to interface with it yeah

I did not pursue that, building my own personal music model.
