Key Quotes:
“It's very hard to take these AI structures and say that they can do all of these very complex things that humans can do, when they're architecturally designed very differently. I'm a big fan of biologically inspired, not biologically accurate.”
“Do you really need AGI for a lot of real world applications? No, you don't want that. Do you want some really complex system where you have no idea what you're doing, where you're pouring all this money in and you know, you're not really getting the results that you want? No, you want something very simple outcomes razor approach, make it as simple as possible, scalable, can adapt, can measure for all of your business metrics”
“We have reached a point where you can do the most with AI models with minimal compute than ever. And so I think that is very exciting. I think we have reached a point where you have very capable models that you can deploy at the edge and I think there's a lot of stuff happening in that realm.”
