And oftentimes the right thing to do is go collect new data.
And so once we actually start like peaking out on like intelligence capabilities, um, you know, either plateaued because of research or like plateaued because we've actually got like AI that's close to AGI.
The limiting factor then becomes like the ability to acquire new new information, new data.
And so in synthetic, like or on the internet, that's gonna be a function of like, you know, in in sort of software bits world.
and then the one beyond that is gonna be well, how do you get literally go make contact with like reality, the universe?
Yeah.
And that's your that's your feedback mechanism to get new information into the system.
So you can like increase your overall intelligence.
statement about just the paradigm of deep learning uh compared to program synthesis, is the bet that um that we're making uh at NDA.
Um DIA program synthesis is a regime that's much more sample efficient or generary um models that can just that can generalize out of distribution.
Um but I think it's a completely statement.
It's a like it's a very damning statement that like we've got AI today that's trained on some colossus of like all of humanity's knowledge and text, right, over the last like five thousand years, it's on the internet.
And like what have what new ideas have have they produced?
And you know, maybe maybe I could point to like Alpha Evolve, which I think is very, very impressive Frontier AI system, you know, and it's legitimately finding new knowledge, it's creating new ideas, you know, very verifiably.
Um, but but they're very small and they're on the margins of things that we kind of like already have been doing, right?
Multi matrix multiplications, things like this, or in kind of in the regime of things that we we kind of know about and can define and spec out for these systems.
Where
Whereas like if I took either of you guys and I gave you somehow the superhuman capability to have like all of humanity's knowledge in your head at the same time, like I think you'd probably be able to produce at least one idea, like connect two random, you know, divergent domains.
They're like, oh hey, this kind of looks like this.
Shit, what what here's a new thought.
