Long Live the Exponential

from Generative AI 101 · host Emily Laird

Host Emily Laird takes a scalpel to “the end of the exponential,” the line Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei dropped that basically screams, “you are not paying attention.” This episode breaks down why the old trick, more data, more compute, bigger models, is getting financially violent, and why the next gains may come from research breakthroughs, reliability, and inference-time muscle. Expect choke points like memory supply, adoption lag that snaps into whiplash, and the unsettling vibe that the hum is getting louder while everyone pretends the movie has not started.
