 My answer might be tricky. I don't want the current AI architecture (Transformers) to define the future of LLMs or ML, that would be disastrous. We need a breakthrough!

It's not that I can't live without it, but AI has countless potential use cases across fields like computer science, medicine, and space exploration. It's already penetrating every industry, these new generative models being just a part of it.

That's why I believe it's crucial to shape AI for a better, less centralized future.

What amazes me is how the open-source community has kept pace with frontier models. If OpenAI disappeared tomorrow, we could still rebuild up to GPT-4o using just open-source models.

I hope it makes sense 😅, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
