So, as mentioned,

00:05

I'm probably most well-known as one of the transformers authors.

00:10

Transformers are, of course, the T in ChatGPT,

00:15

and are the architectures that run

00:17

most of the state-of-the-art artificial intelligence.

00:22

If I think back to that time

00:24

when we were working on the transformers,

00:28

I remember it as a very organic,

00:32

bottom-up kind of project,

00:34

where the idea came from talking over lunch

00:39

or scribbling randomly on the whiteboards in the office.

00:47

And importantly, when we felt like we did actually have a good idea,

00:52

we had the freedom to actually spend the time

00:56

and go and work on it.

00:58

And even more importantly,

01:01

we didn't have any pressure that was coming down from management.

01:07

No pressure to work on any particular project,

01:12

publish a number of papers,

01:15

to push a certain number up.

01:18

So that's the image I want you to have in your mind, right?

01:22

That is the kind of environment

01:24

that allowed the transformer to come into existence.

01:30

An organic, open-ended

01:34

and with a lot of freedom to pursue the ideas

01:37

that we thought were interesting and important.

01:40

And my deep concern is that right now in the AI industry,

01:46

we do not have this kind of environment.

01:50

And I want to talk about why not

01:54

and what can we do about it.

01:57

So the main paradox that I see in artificial intelligence research,

02:02

or the industry in general right now,

02:05

is that despite the fact

02:07

that there's never been so much interest

02:10

and resources and money and talent,

02:15

this has somehow caused a narrowing of the research that we're doing.

02:22

And to me, I think the reason is fairly obvious.

02:27

It's because the immense amount of pressure that comes with that, right?

02:31

Pressure from investors

02:33

that are going to ask for a return on their investment

02:37

and pressure that comes from individuals,

02:40

because this is such an overcrowded industry right now,

02:44

where it is very difficult to stand out.

02:48

And the researchers are really feeling this pressure, right?

02:53

If you're doing, let's say, standard AI research right now,

02:58

you kind of have to assume

03:00

that there's maybe three or four other groups

03:03

doing something very similar or maybe exactly the same.

03:07

So you have to spend the time checking to see if you've been scooped,

03:11

to see if someone else has put your idea out there.

03:15

And even in academia,

03:16

where you would hope you would have more freedom,

03:19

there's pressure to publish, right,
