20VC: Why Scaling Laws Will Not Continue | OpenAI vs Anthropic vs X.ai: Who Wins and Why | How Far Will Model Providers Go Into the Application Layer | The End State for Models: Many Specialised or Few Generalised with Victor Riparbelli @ Synthesia

And it's like slightly better in this area and in this area. And I think that's awesome. But I think for the average business around the world, the current models are already pretty good and can solve a lot of problems.

I think what has happened in very broad strokes is that we democratized distribution with the internet. There are no gatekeepers. Anyone can make a website. Everyone can share that content online. That's been really, really powerful. Then we saw, to some extent, the democratization of content creation because all of our smartphones have cameras in them.

The price of camera equipment dropped and all those things, which, I mean, this setup like 30 years ago would probably have been like 100x the price of what it is today. What's about to happen now is that we're truly going to democratize content creation.

We're going to change the world of making content from something that you need to where we capture things with sensors in the physical world to being able to generate everything digitally, right? And that's going to have huge implications. When you think about text, that's just like a fabric of society. We don't really think that much about text, right?

But text went through this journey of like, you know, the printing press is like one of the first really big inventions around text. Then we invented the keyboard, the computers. And now text is everywhere. Everyone can create content online. It's entirely digital, right? And that's really powerful.

With something like music, we've somewhat also seen that go from being something we generally do in the real world and capture with sensors to something we can do digitally. So most music today is not made with real instruments. It's made with software instruments. I can recreate almost any song I want without real instruments. I can synthesize that on my computer.

And that changed the music industry in many, many, many, many different ways, right? And I think we're going to start to see the same with the video and audio industry, where you are going to be able to bring your ideas to life without needing much more than just your imagination. And this is going to have a whole bunch of effects.
