My favorite thing about AI is that the field elicits some of the most reasonable and level headed takes in all of tech.

@tunguz I under estimated the danger so as to not alarm people

@growing_daniel Blink twice if Dario hacked your account
@growing_daniel @powerbottomdad1 isn’t it the other way around? Meaning token spend is opex, buying servers to host your own models is capex
@growing_daniel Fucking finally Jesus take me
@growing_daniel I think everything will work out
@growing_daniel its a fact that 8 billion ppl will die if we dont have AI. not all at once. but ive never met anyone who disputes this fact.
@growing_daniel If proprietary models retain their edge and maybe figure out a way to let companies use them them to protect themselves without safeguards then nah.
@growing_daniel storage, memory, cpus, the underlying intelligence infrastructure and gemini, the non-intelligent AI remains safe though
@tunguz No human has escaped death yet (to my knowledge)
@growing_daniel The price we pay for e/acc is eternal vigilance.
@growing_daniel Trillions(in marketcap)must die
@growing_daniel The endgame was always the GPUs never the application layer. Nvidia’s Nemotron is an excellent model trained as a weekend project. It’s that easy.
@powerbottomdad1 Zero capex all opex is a more attractive business
