addition here: you have to have trees you can build on to apply the new waves of compute.
if you don't have new use cases or things you're thinking about for the next generation of models you're in the wrong line of work.
whatever you’re working on, no matter how exciting/ambitious you think it is
it will probably be 2-5x less exciting when the next model drops (at least)
so you should be working on things which have 100-100x the ambition levels, the potentially batshit crazy impossible ideas
