J Bostock comments on Ryan Kidd’s Shortform

[J Bostock]

What are some representative examples of the rest? I’m wondering if it’s:

• AI wrappers like Cursor

• Model training for entirely mundane stuff like image gen at Stablediffusion

• Narrow AI like AlphaFold at Isomorphic

• An AGI-ish project but not LLMs, e.g. a company that just made AlphaGo type stuff

• General-purpose LLMs but not at a frontier lab (I would honestly count Mistral here)
