In their words

The transcript segments this claim was taken from

“Exactly. So like AI is already good at hypercubanette. Like if you give it like a bunch of examples of brown dogs and pink cars,”
“AI will still be able to generate an image of a pink dog, even though it's never seen one in a train data or something like that. Right. So it can work on this hypercube, but it cannot yet work outside. It cannot yet define completely new concepts that combine lots of other things we've never seen before,”
