And we can talk about public service as much as we like, but the reality is that's going to be a massive driver.

So we have to break this nonsense about paying no more than the prime minister.

And we have to pay much more like the civil servant in Singapore that are paid upwards of half a million dollars or a million dollars a year to get the best talent.

Some of the best parts of these models are their personality.

They're creative, they're funny, they're kind of witty, they're cheeky.

Those things are entertaining.

They make them even more productive and useful because they help the user feel calm and comfortable and relaxed and able to think clearly.

I've actually seen a lot of people that are using these vibe coding tools love the fact that the engineer, the AI engineer,

is kind of funny and be like, are you sure you really want to do that?

Is that I'm going to have to really spend a lot of tokens to refactor this code base.

Don't you think we could have planned this out a bit better ahead of time?

That's, that's funny.

And it's actually helpful to the productivity case.

Where it's unhelpful is where it descends into romance or into political action.

And I think that there are some parts of our civilization which have to remain off limits to AIs.

Elections and electioneering and campaigning has to be one of them.

Yes, it's inefficient.

Yes, it produces outcomes that we all disagree with at times, but it is fundamentally a human process.

And I think that that's a very hard line that all labs should draw is that these models should not be capable of electioneering or persuading people to vote in one way or another.

And that's very challenging because obviously we do want to provide factual information and the models are very good at providing factual information.
