And if I can learn to do a new task, well, then if it can do all the tasks, then maybe I'll learn something new, but I'll learn that task.

How seriously should we take this possibility that the models are on some timeframe on track to just be able to do all the tasks?

Odd Lots

I think it's pretty obvious when it's going to be scarce.

Odd Lots
Alex Imas on Why Economists Might Be Getting AI Wrong

And I think you already see this in many economic trends.

Odd Lots
Alex Imas on Why Economists Might Be Getting AI Wrong

What's scarce is if we're lucky, we get 100 years on this earth.

Alex Imas on Why Economists Might Be Getting AI Wrong

I have plenty to eat.

Odd Lots
Alex Imas on Why Economists Might Be Getting AI Wrong

I have

listen to plenty of music and I can like go see a concert if I want to see a live piano player.

Odd Lots

The one thing I have is a scarce amount of time and I will just spend every marginal dollar, including not just on doctors and gym memberships, but organic berries because I need and all this and that every marginal thing is somehow becomes health related.

Odd Lots

And you see it in society overall, the health obsession on every dimension.

Odd Lots

Universal basic ETF.

Right, but yeah, but it was like everybody had Safegate, right?
