That's the reaction and the same one for me as well.

And the more you dig in, you're like, okay, yep, there's not just empirical evidence over the last four years that it's unbeaten, but there's theoretical concepts behind why.

And I completely agree at this point that new ideas basically are needed to be dark.

And there's a lot of current trends in the world that are actually, I think, working against that happening.

Basically, I think we're actually less likely to generate new ideas right now

Um, you know, I think one of the kind of trends is the closing up frontier research, right?

The GP4 paper from opening.

I had no technical detail shared.

Uh, the Gemini paper had no technical detail shared and like the longer context, uh, part of that work.

And, and yet that open innovation, that open progress and sharing is what got us to transformers in the first place.

That's what got us to elements in the first place.

So it's kind of disappointing a little bit, actually, that like so much Frontier work has gone closed.

It's really making a bet that like these individual labs are going to have the breakthrough and not the ecosystem is going to have the breakthrough.

And I think sort of the internet open source has shown that that's like the most powerful innovation ecosystem that's ever existed probably in the entire world.

How much do you get if you get the best submission but don't crack it?

So we got a million dollar, actually a little over a million dollars in the prize pool.

We're running the contest on an annual basis.

We're starting it today through the middle of November.

And the goal is to get 85%.

That's the lower bounded human average that you guys talked about earlier.
