It's hard to imagine us continuing the way we're doing for that much time.
But you imagine like whales and dolphins, you could easily imagine them doing the same thing they're doing for millions of years into the future and being happy to do it.
Um
But this also, you know, leads me to think about like what thoughts our language supports.
And I used to think that English was was good enough.
Um but now I'm not so sure.
And
I think what's really interesting is we've taught these language models not just English, but all of the human languages that we could get our hands on.
And I think something that's particularly relevant is the computer languages and the mathematical languages that we've also put into that system.
So it has representations that it can map into English, but it its mind, so to speak, doesn't really operate in English.
It operates in these thought vectors, these word vectors that are independent of any particular language.
And if it was i and if it was German, you would just smush them all together, right, and make one new word out of it.
Right.
Right.
Which I think Turkish does actually as well.
Okay.
So is that what you meant when you were saying you thought English was enough?
Right.
Okay.
That it was this like you mentioned, a universal software framework.
