71.117 - 94.956 Sean Kelly

No. I mean, no. I mean, in 2018 when we started AI was cool, but it was mostly people, you know, making their own custom machine learning models on their own data for like pretty niche use cases. And then it was really 2022 when ChatGPT came out and the sort of foundation model era began that, yeah, this event and just the industry in general has started growing like crazy.

No. I mean, yeah, the number of things that are going to be possible or that are possible is insane. From, you know, Reflecta to tomorrow you're talking to, yeah, the Woolly Mammoth guy. They're using AI a lot in their stuff. To even, yeah, I live in Austin and just seeing the Waymos drive around is not really, you know, an LLM thing, but it's still new and a sick example of AI.
