Erik's long-term vision is for Modal to offer a broad toolkit of composable building blocks for building AI applications.

“I, I think the long-term view of, of Modal is, like, basically like, you wanna build some cool AI shit, like, you know, we got you covered. Like, you know, we got all the building blocks.”

“Like, come to us and, like, we'll help you, you know, take all these building blocks and compose them, and that's the beauty of software is, like, you, you can, you know, build almost anything if you have the right building blocks.”

“So that, that's very much the sort of company and the product I wanna build. When you say training, are you focused on more of, like, the bigger enterprises doing huge training runs? No. Or are you- Okay. No.”
