generative AI

“Where AI is really useful is actually all the other stuff that I talked about. So if you think about the workflow of creating content and start with, what should I be writing about? What are the subtopics? So like, 300 different keywords. What are the sub them…”

“And some people are like, oh my gosh, creative pros are going to be replaced. No, no, no, no, they're not. They're just going to find 10 X better solutions. They're going to have that capability to explore more possibilities.”

“So right now, I mean, in Photoshop, we're experimenting with when, you know, instead of just reducing an image and cropping, you can also extend an image. And that's, of course, using generative AI for outpainting.”

“And I think what we're entering now is we're going from your curation to recommendation to generation. And I suspect it will be as big of a shift that you will eventually have to rethink your products.”

“What would actually happen after piracy is that the music industry got bigger than ever, not, not just as big, but bigger than ever. And I think that could happen with this technology as well, but we're right in the beginning.”

“And I think the changes will be We'll probably start seeing things shift to paid. You have to pay for that free traffic. And the second one is there may just be a case where those keywords just don't get many clicks anymore. You might drop down to a very small…”

“Some of the things that are overhyped is that generative AI will replace humans. I don't see that happening in the near future. The way I think about it, you always need that human in the loop because AI cannot replace innovation, right? That creative spark, t…”

“The zero to one is hard. Like understanding that there's something there at all is the really hard part because you have to be lucky and you have to be talented and you have to look in the right place and like, Do some very hard work, but once you understand t…”

“And when the new generative AI, we have the possibility of stronger effects than we've ever seen before. But we don't know yet. But the suspicion is that size is going to matter. That the size of the data that you could put into the learning algorithm is going…”

“From a customer's point of view, there's AI in the early market, there's AI in the bowling alley, there's AI in the chasm, there's AI in the tornado, and there's AI on Main Street.”

“My own view currently, I don't see any change in seven powers from it in terms of an eighth power or something”

“I'm kind of the view from very much uncertain at this point that That generative AI will, its biggest impact will be that tertiary class. It will be used in a lot of things that that existed before and exist after, but are made better by it, like semiconductor…”

“The concept of these image generation models is the same as a crayon to her. Like there is no difference in her mind. And that is an insane change that I can't even comprehend.”

“And so, if this stuff is magical duct tape, It's very hard to make scaled, repeatable, large scale things out of it. It's very easy to jury the shit out of anything. And so you'll see it being used in the small, in a way that's almost entirely below the level …”

“One of the, I would say the most common pieces of startup advice out there, I would say is, you know, focus on a really niche cohort, you know, do things that don't scale, you know, make, make, make one use case that's really great. And then you grow from ther…”

“Don't, even though you keep talking about it as generative AI, be the generator and let it refine. That's the major trick. You know, that's the hack everybody should learn.”

“Because I, we have gone through we have gone into this phase of like specializations, like people like very highly specialized and people are supposed to do like focus on one thing really well, instead of being a big picture. And we don't have a big picture of…”

“So I don't think it makes the functional expertise obsolete. I think it means that teams have to be more comfortable with maybe this helps us move faster in a certain direction.”
