And Jeremy actually takes the time, where many people don't, to really dive deep into why is the beta parameter of the atom optimizer equal to this?

And he'll go survey and understand what are all the activation functions and the trade-offs and why is it that everybody that does

You know, this model, pick that thing.

So the why, not just trying different values, like really what is going on here.

Right.

And so as a consequence of that, like he's always, again, he makes time, but he spends time to understand things at a depth that a lot of people don't.

And as you say, he then brings it and teaches people.

And his mission is to help lift people.

You know, his website says, making AI uncool again.

Like, it's about, like, forget about the hype.

It's actually practical and useful.

Let's teach people how to do this, right?

Now, the problem Jeremy struggled with is that he's pushing the envelope

Research isn't about doing the thing that is staying on the happy path or the well-paved road, right?

And so a lot of the systems today have been these really fragile, fragmented things or special case in this happy path.

And if you fall off the happy path, you get eaten by an alligator.

Well, so that's another really interesting problem that I knew about, but I didn't understand how big of a problem it was.

Python packaging...

A lot of people have very big pain points and a lot of scars with Python packaging.

Building and distributing and managing dependencies and versioning and all this stuff.
