Doesn’t have to be ZIRP. As long as FAANG has more cash than they can spend on short term product development they will invest in research.

Not saying that, just that it can distort incentives (and we don’t have a lot of insight into the o3 training process.) A long and varied list of AGI benchmarks is needed.

Every field has a deluge of low impact papers, that’s just academia. Imagine if the high impact papers came once every 5 years instead of a couple months.

Just my opinion here. It seems plainly untrue that most tracking applications are “negative”. e.g. every car on the road should have pedestrian tracking. Also strange that you call out quadrupeds as primarily military, that is the least developed of any real quadruped use case right now.

It happens. The only cure for impostor syndrome is knowing it exists.

Thanks!
