Oh hey, Pim de Witte!

For those unaware, this is a very interesting guy, because he stumbled on (creating, through his business Medal) a valuable AI dataset that - by offering to buy his company - reportedly OpenAI offered him 500M for. The dataset, I understand, is first person game video plus controller actions.

He then realized the value, which is in short a way to teach models real world and gui operation common sense. He can train a model to predict, from video, what a controller would have to do.

This is expected to lead in breakthroughs in robotics, gui controlling, self driving, and more.

He responded by learning deep learning, and starting a new company, general intuition.

I respect this guy a lot for teaching js this.

Absolutely fascinating and I take his opinion seriously.
