and yes 40% is a hyperbole now, it's potentially not a hyperbole in 6-12months though
and no i don't have insider info i just extrapolate on how fast the models get better
when i grew up sweden and the US had same gdp per capita, and now american gdp has doubled while sweden stayed flat and no one is aware
and most rest of europe is doing even worse. except poland they're doing great somehow

@gabriel1 It will be too busy getting fucked up from a huge market crash when the TAM drops from 7 billion people to 300 million.

@gabriel1 This is over optimistic about the impact of AI on the economy

@gabriel1 it already feels like fake news to think that europe and the US were economically comparable in my lifetime

@gabriel1 meanwhile Europe's gonna issue a 47 page paper on AI ethics while missing the entire shift 😭
that productivity gap gonna get funny fast

@gabriel1 regulators in brussels aren't even allowed to use the latest models

@gabriel1 They’re not just banning them internationally. USG is blocking access to its own citizens too!

@gabriel1 Wat

@gabriel1 I wonder how bad things have to get in the EU before we wake up. More refugees, more welfare, more regulation, more degrowth and in 2-3 decades we will be literally third world.

@gabriel1 the usa needs to make the best models and make them globally accessible imo

@gabriel1 Regulate first, innovate never. Classic EU.

@gabriel1 I assume, with positive intent, that EU leadership understands the historical moment we are in; I don’t understand the obsession with minor risks. I’m critical of our reactionary governance against Mythos; but the EU bewilders me.

@gabriel1 DALLE-2 is still in regulatory review. the models it generated have since graduated college.

@gabriel1 Wild how the EU thinks you can regulate your way into relevance while everyone else is just building.

@gabriel1 kinda wtf happened in poland in 2020?

@gabriel1 Wonder how a lot of countries can begin to get their engines running again
If europe is doing bad, look at places like thailand and how they are doing.
Hoping for the best

@gabriel1 Not being helped by the majority of the EU replacing its citizens with people from the third world.

@gabriel1 Great point

@gabriel1 Once you look at the most important factors it's not very strange why Poland is doing well, but an even more interesting comparison for Sweden is Schweiz. We did a 3-part series about it a while ago. https://open.spotify.com/episode/35DcZ1GRVwcrxUg6ZIuxRD?si=9PpVONbbQ3Wt05ptbkT3_Q
