TIL: Incorrect music metadata is a huge problem and is causing artists to lose millions in royalties. This disproportionaly affects independent musicians. But structured NLP can help!

Interesting to see the text-to-software space grow. As models get better.
But, few things are hype though.

The text to software products are cool as models get better.
But I do wonder if falls into the bucket of no-code tools of the past. Were their are great for the first draft or basic software. But any precise customisation. There it becomes more difficult than actually coding the software yourself.

My experience with o1 and DeepSeek, are great for programming. But provide critical mistakes making the code un-usable.
Here the human always needs to be at the wheel.

LLMs are powerful tools, not magic solutions. They're part of your toolkit, not a replacement for human judgment.

Prediction: Massive Cost reductions coming due to DeepSeek.
The Flash Gemiai already has similar costs to Deepseek. Stay tuned for "mini" models getting a big upgrade.

Been seeing some takes - Post DeepSeek. About demand for compute.
No - Compute is not going away.
Much more efficient yes. But still lots of gains by scaling up new frontier models.

I won't be surprised if DeepSeek releases a big model within the next 3 months. Using the same arc as R1.

Think Compute will decline after DeepSeek? Not true.
It means you'll get more for your investment. The same billion-dollar spend on DeepSeek Arc enhances your capabilities beyond what was possible before.
But massive CapEx from Wall Street is over IMO.

Everyone's shouting about 20% AI growth, but here's the inconvenient truth: transformative tech rarely creates overnight revolutions.
It creates compounding gains. Like electricity before it, AI's real power is in the slow reshape 🌱

Seems like LLMs can deal with the cold start problem for new projects.
Founder: “here’s a product idea we should do.”
Dev team: “Ok. We’ll build a prototype. It will be ~2 weeks.” 1 month later there’s a prototype. Another 2 months to ship.
Now: founder builds prototype in ~4 hours, shows to dev team. Team builds a prod ready one in a week and ships to customers!

Fascinating pattern: Pro investors start broad, then drill down strategically.
Meanwhile, newer investors showed 21.5% query redundancy (vs pros' 14%). Experience shapes how we interact with AI. 🤔

A common pattern I've seen so far is homes that have been saved through domestic fire prevention practices. Ex fire retardants, homemade sprinkler systems, and brick houses.
These are quite costly investments - moving back means someone has to pick up the tab.
