Great exercise and apparently the answer is ‘no.’ Which is interesting given the magnitude of investments taking place. nber.org/papers/w34243

Still the most undervalued AI company

Infrastructure is capital-intensive, and we’re building a lot of it. Time to get back to work.

In retrospect it is surprising that OpenAI released o1-preview. As soon as they showed off reasoning, everyone copied it immediately.
And if they had held off releasing a reasoning/planning model until o3 (& called that GPT-5) it would have been a startling leap in AI abilities.
Noam Brown@polynoamial
@OpenAI o1 is trained with RL to “think” before responding via a private chain of thought. The longer it thinks, the better it does on reasoning tasks. This opens up a new dimension for scaling. We’re no longer bottlenecked by pretraining. We can now scale inference compute too.

I used to think AI would replace workers.
Studying a database with the near universe of commercial AI (including GenAI + factory, and office tools) I found the opposite:
AI increases employment by giving low-skilled workers expert knowledge.🧵

💥 I’m starting something new inside OpenAI! It’s called OpenAI for Science, and the goal is to build the next great scientific instrument: an AI-powered platform that accelerates scientific discovery.

Best analogy for @karpathy Vibe Coding.
Is watching @justinbieber conduct an orchestra.
With no sheet music, no conducting training—just vibes, hums and vision.
And it's the future of how creators and designers will work.
We will think in ''concept level'', orchestrating AI to bring ideas to life. @antonosika on the @20vcFund
Listening, iterating, and flowing with it.
Bieber is like master Vibe-Designer here.
It's hypnotic and awesome to watch this tbh. 😎🥰
This is what 'text-to-x' paradigm will do for behavior.
And why the @lovable of this era are creating.

Is AI already impacting the job market?
A new paper from me, @erikbryn, and @RuyuChen at @DigEconLab digs into data from ADP.
We find some of the ***first large-scale evidence of employment declines for entry-level workers in AI-exposed jobs.***

Between 50 to 60 percent of a scientist's research output is attributable to the institution where they work, and two thirds of this effect is driven by the presence of star researchers, from @amitabhchandra2 and Connie Xu nber.org/papers/w33996

Does professor quality matter for training the next generation of researchers? Or will good PhD students do good research either way?
Quality matters

I wish data centers would offer tours to the public and schools could take field trips to them. They are the defining pieces of infrastructure of our generation, but unlike railroads, the grid, or anything else, we never get to see them and experience their scale.
