Episode notes

A lot of people are not happy with how closed OpenAI has become. Who do you think is going to win? It's, if you pattern match open, open tends to win. But there's like a catch here, which is the next big wins are not necessarily going to come from whoever is going to continue to train more. And so as long as meta is in the game, I think there's a chance for open source to sort of stay there and like, you know, win in the long run.
