Explain a little bit to the ordinary intelligent listener to our podcast, what are the potential threats of bioweapons and why you would need a particular structure to deal with it?

And it's a general model.

It also would be quite good at writing Shakespeare sonnets.

It's great at creative writing.

Just to understand, presumably there are two different things.

One of them is that the thing will be much better at finding the bug or the little backdoor into your system.

The second thing is that it presumably could mount many, many more attacks

very, very quickly and respond very quickly to the defense.

So instead of some dude sitting in their backyard, trying something, failing and then trying again, this thing could be generating tens of thousands of these attacks and learning all the time.

Okay, now, again, sorry, Jay, I keep interrupting, but I just bring the audience along.

We were told two years ago, don't worry about this, because exactly the same moment as the cyber attack capacity increases, the cyber defense capacity will increase.

Who told you that?

Well, I don't know.

But I mean, these are people that you know well.

And in fact, some of them you were talking about before we came into the room, but I don't want to drop the minute.

But I literally was with them two and a half years ago.

I raised exactly this problem.

And I was told very, very straightly by these people, don't worry about it, because cyber defense will increase at just the same speed as cyber attack.

Okay, quick break and then back for more.

Sorry, what won't be true for very long?
