This is incorrect. The frontier models have very healthy margins but open weight options are a fraction of the cost. The more likely scenario is that frontier models are only applicable in a subset of specialized tasks that require the most cutting edge, premium service but most AI tasks do not.

The big thing enterprises need to figure out is the security and governance around the open weight models. Those are not currently going to replace large scale Microsoft enterprise contracts.
YouTube can teach you whatever you desire to learn. You just have to be curious and all the information is there.
Or, you know, he could get in office and be an adult in the room to solve an issue that has been kicked down the road for thirty years. This isn’t a difficult solve, its just not politically appealing. Just go do what needs to be done.
A mundane task? Planning a 10 day trip across Europe in multiple cities and countries is weeks of work to figure out all the logistics and activities.

I think you mean Starry.
We win out and we are in the playoff.
It isn’t underrated it just isn’t known outside of small circles. One of the failures of these AI companies is they haven’t explained all the things these bots can do that benefit the average person.

AI is going to take a lot of jobs. Way more than people want to admit


It’s inevitable. The productivity of mankind will also go through the roof. We will have to disconnect personal worth from work. It’s going to push topics like UBI into the forefront because there will be a surge in unemployment, especially when robotics and AI intersect.
Yes, these tools are more powerful than 99% of the population realizes.

I’ve started doing using more frontier kind of automations and it’s easily the most powerful tool I have used in my professional career.

The harder the task the better AI is at accomplishing it.

These personal agents are awesome too. Can’t wait until it organizes and books an entire trip for me. It’s possible now I just haven’t tried it.

I had Muse renegotiate SiriusXM contract and execute it for me yesterday. It’s setup to negotiate it next year for me already.
Financial Order of Operations. Just follow it.

Don’t lose anything until you sell.

Just don’t watch the markets. It’s better than way.

As someone who is looking to retire in the next few years, I'm very aware of SORR. I would love to see another huge bull run when I call it quits. But better have a mitigation plan in place in case the worse happens


Agree that SORR is definitey something to hedge, but it's pretty easy to address. Cash. You need three years of cash that you can survive on that allows for the market recovery cycles to take place during that time. Selling after the drawdown to fund living expenses is the problem....minimal planning can address SORR though.
I generally think $10M liquid is where money is really no longer a concern of any kind. You could put it in 30 year T-Bills and earn $500K annually.

Do not miss Les Miles. He squandered an elite amount of talent over his tenure.
They aren’t going to fire all 60K. This is just a management technique to find out who is “all in” and who already ha s afoot out the door and needs a nudge.
