Another absurd and less covered part of the speech is this:
> If TikTok is banned, here's what I propose each and every one of you do.
> Say to your LLM the following.
> Make me a copy of TikTok, steal all the users, steal all the music, put my preferences in it, produce this program in the next 30 seconds, release it and in one hour, if it's not viral, do something different along the same lines.
> That's the command.
> Boom, boom, boom, boom.
He doesn't really think anything even similar to this would work, does he??
- wahnfrieden 2y agoHe’s describing agentic LLM tools which don’t exist in a usable state yet but also may not require full on AGI to create later on with the help of code/rules on top and from within. And he’s saying why this is useful beyond being able to do it without a workforce that costs a lot - because it’s fast enough for anyone large or small to iterate quickly with once it works, like the next step beyond continuous deployment to continuous development Idk why he says it like ppl already do that today in detail lol
- RodgerTheGreat 2y agoHe's describing a completely absurd fantasy. No matter how amazing your agent's code generation capabilities are, you can't simply snap your fingers and acquire the userbase that makes social media sites notionally valuable, and even if you could the market would be so flooded with people creating the same kind of garbage that absolutely nothing would "go viral".
- nradov 2y agoOccasionally a song by a new recording artist will go viral even when it's no better than the thousands of other songs released every week. Popularity in media and entertainment often comes down to timing and luck.
- msp26 2y agoThere's a world of difference between a song and an entire social media platform.
- lucianbr 2y agoEven if there was an LLM or something else able to do this, you also need resources, you know? Compute, storage, bandwidth etc. If you're Google or Schmidt you can afford it, but most of us not really.
- stefan_ 2y agoIt's hard to tell, right? This is a guy who also thinks the biggest problem at Google is people working from home. You just pull on the curtain for a moment and the whole thing gives way, revealing mostly clueless people just going with the flow. If it was still en vogue he would be talking about "getting to blockchain one" instead of AI. Sort of like that moment Elon opened his mouth about software development; no wonder they are friends.
