I haven't seen it in a long time.

And a lot of these things like six fingers just went away and no one talked about it because it was only fun to talk about when it was sloppy and terrible.

And now people are like, wow, the victory lap was like two days in tech Twitter.

And then everyone moved on.

And they found some new bone to pick, which is maybe the human condition.

We'll always find something to complain about.

But yeah, do you have like some end state or do you think this is a life's work?

Is this something that we're going to be pursuing?

Talk about transfer learning in taste, where taste applies more broadly.

We were just talking to the CEO of Arm Holdings, chip design firm.

In labs, they talk about research taste.

I imagine that there's a lot of chip design that can be done just with a deterministic like Verilog model, Verilog fine-tune model.

I would imagine if I actually went and talked to the best designers at Arm, they would say, yeah, there is a lot of taste in what we do.

And I'm interested to know if you think there will be knock-on effects, because everyone probably goes to images, front-end design, the visual taste of a visual designer.

But I'm wondering if you think

see yourself as doing something that is in the path of solving challenges outside of visual taste.

And maybe there will be implications in things that maybe people outside the industry can't see the taste that goes into the design of a CPU, but in fact there is.

There's no price to work.

how predictions, how many years until we see someone affectionately and nostalgically embrace AI slop, like the slop core aesthetic, they're bringing six fingers and they're prompting the latest and greatest models, the nano banana seven.

And they're like, I want you to add six fingers because that has a retro feel that takes me back to Dolly too.
