This isn’t technical progress but is regulatory progress. Technical progress is the current limiting factor so I agree that it is more important to emphasize right now. On the other hand, I disagree that user videos on YouTube is a sign of progress. 1. There is an obvious selection bias as only a minority of people with access to the software actually upload videos. 2. The videos are qualitative in nature and it is not feasible for a single human to go through all of them and form an objective opinion on the state of the art. So it’s prone to confirmation bias too. I’d argue that there isn’t a common yardstick of technical progress for game theoretic reasons but I’d love to see one.
