The speaker’s group has examined returns to research effort across traditional software, including linear/integer and SAT solvers, and AI, including computer vision, reinforcement learning, and language modeling.

“Those estimates is thinking about the kind of returns to research effort and, you know, we've looked into the returns to research effort in software specifically and we look at a bunch of domains in traditional software or, you know, like linear integer solvers or SAT solvers, but also in AI,”

“like computer vision and RL and language modeling. And there, like if this model is true that all you need to do,”
