“I would give, give that maybe six months before the models climb that hill, and then we'll generate data that's even harder for the models.”

Siddharth: Agentic AI will replace services firms like McKinsey, BCG, and Accenture
“So I think like Turing will probably replace companies like McKinsey, Bain, BCG, and every services company like Accenture, TCS, Wipro, Infosys, like all of these companies doing vanilla services that's going to be automated with these agentic systems.”
Siddharth: Solving multimodality, reasoning, tool use, and coding yields ASI
“Turing's the world's leading research accelerator, working with all of these frontier labs to advance them along I would say the four pillars of superintelligence which is multimodality, reasoning, tool use, and coding. If you solve these four things, you will…”

“And I think of ASI as us having automated 90% of the tasks that 90% of humans do today in front of a computer, right?”
Siddharth: AI will automate $30 trillion of global knowledge work
“This is like, if you look at those four dimensional, if you look at that four dimensional matrix, that's 30 trillion dollars of knowledge work that is going to be automated.”
Siddharth: Reasoning models ended demand for simple AI data factories
“This industry had a huge shift after the reasoning models came out late last year, O-one being the first. The shift is, before the reasoning models, this industry needed simple data. Gobs and gobs of simple data. You needed a data factory. Or, ah, this industr…”
