Some people think the models have plateaued in quality and some people think that's crazy because what we can achieve with them keeps growing without bound.

  • Some people think the models have plateaued in quality and some people think that's crazy because what we can achieve with them keeps growing without bound.
    • I think both camps are right, but they're talking about two different things.
    • The value of a model is both its inherent ability (the model quality), and also how easily it can be used to do things (the usefulness of the scaffolding).[dg][dh]
    • The raw model quality is clearly plateauing[di][dj], but there's no end in sight to how much we can do with them, because the quality of scaffolding continues to compound.
