The world has changed.
No, not really.
I think that, again, my thing isn't AGI, it's intelligence augmentation.
I'm making sure everyone has a heater, at the very least.
We don't build big enough models for AGI or emergence.
On purpose.
On purpose.
So I held back release of my image models.
We could train much bigger language models, but we choose not to.
So we're a fast follower on language models.
We try not to push the boundaries, and we're focusing on the edge.
Not general purpose models, but models that can transform your private data.
So a different focus.
Image models as well.
We could have much better image models if we just went big.
We're focusing on what can work on a smartphone so we can give it to all the kids in Africa and Asia and other things like that, where we can transform your private data at a very low cost of inference.
So the objective function is augmentation versus generalization, and that's different to most of the other people that are pushing the boundaries here.
Um, so, but I think the new thing is it's good as bad.
I want to really want to see that movie Oppenheimer.
I think it just came out.
