I personally don't think that's given the AI quite enough credit. Like, AI can learn, you know, through simulation and through real life pretty quickly how to handle different situations. And I don't know that you need exactly the same number of arms and legs and wheels, which is zero in the case of humans, as humans to make it all work. So I'm probably less...

bullish on that, but to be fair, there are a lot of really smart people who are making humanoid robots, so I wouldn't discount it.

If you vibe code, yeah. I'm embarrassed to say this. Recently, I just had a big tiff inside the company because we had this list of what you're allowed to use to code and what you're not allowed to use to code. And Gemini was on the no list. Oh, you have to be pure. You can't... I don't know. For a bunch of really weird reasons that it boggled my mind.

I mean, nobody would enforce this rule, but there was this actual internal webpage. For whatever historical reason, somebody had put this and I had a big fight with them. I cleared it up after... a shockingly long period of time. You escalated to your boss. Oh, I definitely told Sudhir about it.

No, no, he was very supportive. It was more like, I was like... I could talk to them, I was like, I can't deal with these people. You need to deal with this. I'm beside myself that they're saying we can't.

No, but I'm serious.

I guess so. Anyway, it did get fixed, and people are using it.

No, we're trying to roll out every possible kind of AI and trying external ones, whatever the cursors of the world, all of those, to just see what really makes people more productive. I mean, for myself, it definitely makes me more productive because I'm not coding.

That's a great question. I mean, look, I don't know. You guys can take a guess just as well as I can. But if I had to guess, things have been more converging. And this is sort of broadly true across machine learning. I mean, you used to have all kinds of different kinds of models and whatever, convolutional networks for vision things. And you had whatever RNNs for text and speech and stuff.

And all of this has shifted to transformers, basically. Yeah. And increasingly, it's also just becoming one model. Now, we do get a lot of oomph occasionally. We do specialized models. And it's definitely scientifically a good way to iterate when you have a particular target. You don't have to do everything in every language and handle whatever, both images and video and audio in one go.
