October 16, 2022Betting on AI is like betting on semiconductors in the 70's | Danny Hernandez | EA Global: SF 22Danny discusses the three exponentials driving AI progress: hardware, algorithmic, and spending. We'll consider extrapolating these trends 10–20 years out. We'll translate effective compute progress into GPT-2 to GPT-3 sized jumps and build an intuition for such jumps.
