And then there's another set of people who might have a different opinion. Well, what if you like Actually, let me not get into that, just in the interest of not making this answer too long. So I think there's one category people are like, okay, there's generalized human knowledge.

You can kind of go, if you learn that, that's open domain or something, if you kind of go learn about the Pythagorean theorem. That's one end of the spectrum. And then I think the other extreme end of the spectrum is...

is art, and maybe even like more than, more specifically I would say it's like doing, it's a system generating art in the style or the likeness of another artist would be kind of the furthest end of that. And then there's many, many cases on the spectrum in between.

I think the conversation has been historically very caught up on training data, but it will increasingly become more about what happens at inference time. As training data becomes less valuable and what the system does accessing information in context in real time or...

you know, taking like something like that, what happens at inference time will become more debated and what the new economic model is there. So if you say like, if you say like, create me a song in the style of Taylor Swift,

even if the model were never trained on any Taylor Swift songs at all, you can still have a problem, which is it may have read about Taylor Swift, it may know about her themes, Taylor Swift means something. And then the question is, should that model, even if it were never trained on any Taylor Swift song whatsoever, be allowed to do that? And if so, How should Taylor get paid? Right.

So I think there's an opt-in, opt-out in that case, first of all, and then there's an economic model. Staying on the music example, there is something interesting to look at from... the historical perspective here, which is sampling and how the economics around that work. This is not quite the same thing, but it's like an interesting place to start looking.

I wasn't trying to make that point because I agree in the same way that humans are inspired by other humans. I was saying if you say generate me a song in the style of Taylor Swift.

Okay.

Okay.

I think personally that's a different case.

We have currently made the decision not to do music, and partly because exactly these questions of where you draw the lines. I was meeting with several musicians I really admire recently, and I was just trying to talk about some of these edge cases. But even the world in which... If we...
