The speaker suggests that exponentially growing compute could eventually make some calculations possible in principle under cubic scaling, given enough time for Moore's law to advance.

“Yeah. No, okay, okay. Yeah, but with exponentially growing compute, you can argue that in in cube scaling size, eventually you could in principle calculate things. You just wait till Moore's”

“But as long as you know, yeah, yeah. But as long as in cube is a good scaling, you can”
