This is exactly the sentiment I listened to often when OpenAI started ("how could the few of you possibly compete with Google") and 1) it was very wrong and then 2) it was very wrong again with a whole another round of startups who are now challenging OpenAI in turn and imo it still continues to be wrong today.

"strong agree. this is why I'm not a trader ;) forgive my exaggeration I just mean that's it is mostly a next token prediction problem that happens to print money. It's also highly data constrained (e.g. at mid or low frequency). It's not what we're working on "trading which we have to acknowledge is the most valuable next token prediction problem from a pure economic perspective" This is bleak. AI should be more. Trading ads so little value to the world. Its so far downstream of anything real for anyone but the trader. "trading which we have to acknowledge is the most valuable next token"

"A conventional narrative you might come across is that AI is too far along for a new research-focused startup to outcompete and outexecute the incumbents of AI. This is exactly the sentiment I listened to often when OpenAI started ("how could the few of you possibly compete with Google") and 1) it was very wrong and then 2) it was very wrong again with a whole another round of startups who are now challenging OpenAI in turn and imo it still continues to be wrong today.
