This is the other thing.
Everyone's like, well, what we do about the things that can now be done?
Well, they are legal.
Our existing body of laws is pretty clear on how we think about fraud.
Yeah.
I mean, but like, it's not like, again, now I feel the need as everyone who talks about this to acknowledge that they are, you know, anything that's powerful can be used powerfully for good and for bad.
What then matters is how distributed it is.
And I think it's awesome that we live in a time where like, I don't know, like the second, like, again, I run a company,
that makes billions of dollars of revenue and is worth hundreds of billions of dollars.
And I am on WhatsApp with
the people running and training these models at all the labs because i am of industry and i know them i have no access to better models than everyone right like it's it's um the second they release something it's going into an api that api can be called from everyone's computer that's connected on the internet which really is every computer
with the right command that you can literally copy from a website and paste into a window of a program you've never launched called Terminal.
And it will respond from that quality API for less than a penny.
And it's awesome that we live in a world where, like we could live in an alternative world where these things are trained and someone pays
$100 billion to purchase it, and then there's a one-on-one, and only one entity or one company could use this, and we are not living in that world.
And I think that's amazing.
The open nature and the direct distribution is the thing that I'm so thankful for because it's completely path-dependent.
This just happened.
This is how the first one got released.
It created an aesthetic for releasing these, and therefore all of them are released.
