And so one tester wrote a script that created graph after graph after graph and printed it on an old school dot matrix printer.
And it turns out if you did that for like two days, it would write sin dogs to that one spot in the file.
And I thought it was all contextual and it was based on how much memory the computer had, how long it ran for, and what printer and device driver was all in use.
We could have very easily just concluded it did this.
The Excel brain decided to print SynDog somewhere.
But we didn't.
We actually went and debugged it.
And then we put in all of this telemetry.
The first thing I learned when I got to Microsoft was how to figure out buffer overruns and memory allocation and to put that code into every product.
And then there was a version, you know, what happens is there's a version of Excel that runs that has all this extra logging.
And we ran that internally for the beta tests.
And so all of that infrastructure, I have no idea in these models how much is there.
I can just tell you reading the reports that OpenAI put out, it's not enough.
They're just, they're not grown up yet as platforms for doing what they do.
And they've got to figure that out.

They should just wake up and say, we have to go do that.

Like literally this is their, it's like you have one job, making software that works.
That's it.
