I think there's going to be more hype rather than less coming because certain things are really starting to work at scale from a revenue perspective and really quickly. And like any other wave of enthusiasm, you'll see people abandon it as well as a technology. There's so much at stake in terms of the positive things this technology can do for the world. I actually am quite a bit of a doomer in the long run. But in the short run, I think that regulation or misregulation can really take things down a dark path. How about you? Yeah, let's talk about nuclear first and we'll go back to that because you brought it up.
This week on No Priors, Sarah and Elad do another hangout to answer listener questions. Topics include debunking common misconceptions about AI and its implications on the world, the analogy to nuclear power and nuclear safety, the impact of larger context windows, developer productivity, incumbent announcements of AI products, and some requests for (fat) startups.
