I've heard of this use case, even seem to remember reading about it somewhere. I like the idea, but I struggle to figure out we could validate what the AI produces in response to those animal sounds; we can't ask the whale if it's correct.

Drug development is one of the very few *good* uses of LLM AIs that I can see out there. A few others I really like include battery tech, instant realtime voice translation services, and climate modeling.

Good interview. A thought - you said that you can't think of a single thing that AI really enables, product-wise. Something that is really novel and valuable.
Question: what about research? Have you seen this use case? Would love to hear your thoughts on it.

Laws are only as strong as their enforcement. If enough people pretend like he has powers he doesn't actually have, at scale, this will inhibit enforcement and weaken associated laws. That said, gotta pick and choose your battles, or you're likely to burn out.

You're not wrong, there's a strategy in what's playing out. Problem is, Trump has never played by the rules, and somehow he *keeps getting away with it*. It's like playing Chess with a pigeon - no matter how well one plays, the pigeon will just take a shit on the board and strut about like it won.

Yeah, good luck with that. I mean, I hope he does have mercy, but that's not really in his vocabulary, at least not for anyone except the violent mob that attacked the Capitol on his behalf. Trump wants to know what those scared people have done *for him* to deserve his mercy.

The Internet, like most technology, is a double-edged sword. Important to recognize all the ways instant global connection has benefitted humanity, while also recognizing all the ways it's harmed. IMO the real problem is Power, which Corrupts, since time immemorial. My 2 cents.
