“No, it's not gonna replace it. You're still gonna have, like, Guillermo del Toro building, like, the film for you, but you can have another thing on the side, and another thing might be just a different experience.”

“I just not sure that they're going to follow the same rules and patterns of films where you have actors and scenes and sequences, you know, I think that I don't, yeah, I don't think that's probably going to happen.”

“It's less about one single, like, algorithmic innovation that's gonna change the entire field and more about how do you make sure that, like, those pieces are set correctly because I think ultimately it's a complex puzzle that has many different parts and you …”

“I think for a long time, all of these cultural moments of like the Six Fingers and like Will Smith eating spaghetti, I think for me, those are like focusing on a specific moment in time and trying to extrapolate from that towards the future, considering that n…”

“Most studios, it's not all of them, have some sort of, like, AI strategy or thinking through it.”

“We have now customers using Runway for, like, game design. We have people using it for, like, architects, for architectural rendering. We have folks using it for e-commerce.”

“I have emails of some of the best, like, investors in the world, or the best, like, research in the world telling me I was wasting my time.”

“We released a model called Aleph a couple of weeks ago that it's a really good model that allows you to do something that I think was previously not possible with AI models, which is you don't prompt the model with just language. You actually put a video on fi…”

“But I think for where we are right now, we'll probably continue to build models just internally, yeah.”

“I think eventually you'll get to, like, best in SAS margins, like, as 80, 90% over time.”

“Most of the, like, AI lab research margins these days for companies to build are between, like, what, 40 to 70%.”

“Building the infrastructure to get there is to have the thing that takes you the longest. Like, training a model is not, it's not trivial. It takes time. It takes time to do the right captioning, the right annotation, the right infrastructure around it, the ri…”

“I come to the office now for a hundred people.”
