respectfully, 20 yrs of software dev experience doesn't entitle you to understand the last 2 months of AI if you didn't spend the effort to keep up. jargon happens, its not your fault but also people need to communicate thoughts concisely given a base of knowledge. its ok to ask of course but the rest of us who have been keeping up can parse this well enough (even though I disagree with some of the assertions)
