  1. To have fundamental differences with the Government and still not get delicensed is the kind of freedom we can’t even begin to imagine in India. Such a company in India growing so exponentially but not agreeing to every wimps and fancies of the Government would be regulated out of existence. Of course there’s so much more to building such a ground breaking company than just this but how many much smaller dreams die in India due to Government regulations and partiality.

  2. This dude is telling us that we are going to replace jobs! We need to be pro active! We need to stop charging so much for education. We need to listen to these smart guys that are being honest with humanity.

  3. Bloomberg focused on the politics of warfare when the pentagon uses multiple LLMs from different sources. Get your story back on track. Whoever has the better model should be used to prevent the poor decisions.

  4. Is it just me or does everyone in this video dress like a clown? It's as if they're trying to peacock their excessive wealth by getting weird drip/skins.
