The transcript segments this claim was taken from
“i think it will definitely like go through stages because because i mean this is assuming there's like one discontinuous event where suddenly we fix like”
“like weight updates continuously and like in practice i think it's much more likely to be like the cartridges and stuff allow you specialized in deployment then you generate traces you put that in your model like three months later you come up with a model which is better at this stuff you specialize it again you like consolidate it again and then eventually we'll just like make this loop faster and faster so instead of like every three months we release a model now it's like every week and then every like day and then every hour at which point we basically have always solved it”Play from 54:31Report a misattribution
