But then I heard about this co-pilot and I started playing around with it and I built the app by myself.
And so I think we'll see a lot more of that, of people that are non-technical or semi-technical who previously thought, here's something that's way beyond what I could ever do.
I need to find somebody else to do it.
Now I can do it myself.
You know, you could help build prototype systems like that.
You can do research.
You can ask, give me a summary of this topic.
What are the important things?
What do I need to know?
As you said, creating artwork and so on, if that's not a skill you have, they can definitely help you do that.
Looking for things that you don't know is useful.
And so I think just being aware of what the possibilities are and having that as one of the things that you can call upon.
It's not gonna solve everything for you, but it just makes everything go a little bit faster.
I think it's kind of mixed.
You know, any kind of software, any kind of goods with zero marginal cost tends to concentrate wealth in the hands of a few.
And so that's definitely something to be worried about.
With AI, we also have this aspect that the very largest models are big and expensive.
They require big capital investments.
And if you'd asked me two years ago, I would have said, oh, you know, all the AI is going to migrate to the big cloud providers because they're going to be the only ones that can build these large state-of-the-art models.
But I think we're already going past that, right?
