Apparently, he said that this was something they put a lot of thought into, because when they were coming up with their logo for their process, it was a super drawn out process.

And it was really hard for them all to agree on a logo and trying to think of something that illustrated what they're trying to solve.

And so he's trying to create this smarter, essentially this model that is optimized for building trust and, you know, creating this kind of long term value of clarification, this context building.

He said right now, basically all of the AI models are optimized for giving this like immediate user satisfaction and answer correctness.

But they're not trying to do these other things.

So they want their model to ask questions the same way maybe like your colleague would ask.

They said they want it to be really selective and purposeful and with memory and some prior interactions that you might have had with it and integrate all of that into the response it's giving.

It's a very ambitious project.

It's also kind of vague and opaque and hard to understand.

If I'm being 100% honest, there's a lot of buzzwords thrown in there and a lot of like, this is a problem.

And if I'm being 100% honest, I don't know if all of their problems are problems.

I'm excited to see what they come up with.

And if they just have a model that's really good at one specific thing, or if they pivot to that in the future, I'll be thrilled.

They've raised, you know, half a billion dollars, I think they're gonna be able to pull something off.

And I'm not trying to be pessimistic, but sometimes I do feel like that.

One of their co-founders, Peng, said, part of what we're doing is making sure that as the model improves, we can co-evolve the interface and behavior into something that actually makes sense as a product.

I think, obviously, what they're trying to do is not build a model that is just simply plug it into some existing collaboration tools.

They want to build their own collaboration layer that they that they were actually creating.

I think it's definitely a crowded space.

There's a lot of competition here.
