Maybe they mean 220 million people as in 220 million US taxpayers as in bailout lol

They should sell NFTs for those GPUs. Finally a good use for that amazing invention

He meant he meant once they go public he can watch people get destroyed on their short positions. Sadly right now there is no way to short OpenAI

They obviously couldn‘t just patch it on top of LLMs, this would require a whole new architecture
November 20, 2025 at 7:33 AM
Dogs trying to become physicists is what LLMs are. The whole idea of world models is to create a model that allows reasoning and true understanding. And how to do that is big open question.
November 20, 2025 at 7:32 AM
Much bigger complexity… like how many variables does the real world have, and more importantly how many rules (cause and effect) does the world have. So you will need a very smart architecture. If it‘s even possble to replicate what the human brain does
November 20, 2025 at 5:41 AM
There seem to be several definitions. The narrow „world model“ would be modeling spatial relationships and physics. But they real deal would be a model that knows cause and effect. A model that describes how the whole world actually works and that allows planning and reasoning, like us humans do.

If they succede (i hope they won‘t) it would be HUGE. This would create AI with actual understanding and solve all the problems LLMs have, like hallucinations and the inability to come up with any novel thoughts. Which means then they could actually build their agents™️ and make everyone unemployed

I don‘t know much about LeCun, but i have the feeling he‘s an idealist and actually wants to create AGI, or superinteligence or whatever the word of the month is
November 20, 2025 at 5:21 AM
The huge difference is that a world model would mean actual understanding. LLMs don‘t understand anything, they‘re just matching patterns from their training data
November 20, 2025 at 5:17 AM
That‘s the narrow definition of world model. What they are probably trying to build is an AI that actually understands the world (not only physics) - as opposed to LLMs
November 20, 2025 at 5:14 AM
What they‘re doing is probably fundamental research. From what I know, no one has any clue how to actually build world models yet. From LeCun‘s perspective it makes sense, since at Meta it‘s all in for LLMs and they‘re obviously a dead end.

Google definitely is using their in-house chips. They trained and ran all of their Gemini generations completely on TPUs
November 20, 2025 at 2:21 AM
And Gemini 1
November 19, 2025 at 5:42 PM
This is not big news, Google already did the same for Gemini 2

Why are you posting all of this under a comment for Ed Zitron‘s blog? Did you read any of his articles? Of course there is an AI bubble. And yes it will be like 2000. It‘s not even a debate anymore, the only big, million-dollar question is WHEN will it pop
November 18, 2025 at 4:41 AM
Softbank actually *had* to buy more OpenAI stock, because they had promised the money ($22.5B) in an investment round earlier. They also had to sell off a bunch of other stuff to free up that amount.

FYI I just found out that Burry CLOSED his positions already, he sold those options late October. So it might not be a wise idea to buy these exact puts. Especially the Palantir timeframe seemed very risky to me anyway.

* And if and when the AI bubble crashes it will bring down the S&P 500 HARD. The dotcom crash is the comparison here, and S&P 500 went down 50%. So siding with the house right now might not be the best idea if the house is batshit insane.
November 16, 2025 at 4:49 AM
You are aware that there are talks of an AI bubble, right? and that it would bring down the whole stock market, right? Buying and holding $SPY right now is only a good idea if your timeframe is 5-10+ years and you are OK with wasting money for quite a long time.
November 16, 2025 at 4:45 AM
GPU demand is here to stay? Have you read any of Ed's articles?
November 16, 2025 at 4:40 AM
It‘s definitely risky though, especially Burry‘s Palantir bet. The stock would have to drop >70% by Jan '27, and crashes take a while. So i think he‘s betting that Palantir will start to crash within the next 2-3 months. I personally would give it more time.
November 15, 2025 at 10:21 AM
The maximum loss for put options is what you paid for them, and the potential gains are more than 1000% in this case. If your bet is that the AI bubble will burst hard within the next 1.5 years, this sounds like a good deal.

I really hope that Coreweave will be remembered as the Pets.com of our era
