  14. 14 0:49 - Imo fair to say that software is changing quite fundamentally again. LLMs are a new kind of computer, and you program them *in English*. Hence I think they are well deserving of a major versio…
  15. 15 6:06 - LLMs have properties of utilities, of fabs, and of operating systems → New LLM OS, fabbed by labs, and distributed like utilities for now. Many historical analogies apply - imo we are computin…
  16. 16 14:39 - LLM psychology: LLMs = "people spirits", stochastic simulations of people, where the simulator is an autoregressive Transformer. Since they are trained on human data, they have a kind of emer…
  17. 17 18:16 - LLMs are "people spirits" → can build partially autonomous products.
  18. 18 29:05 - LLMs are programmed in English → make software highly accessible! yes, vibe coding
  19. 19 33:36 - LLMs are new primary consumer/manipulator of digital information adding to GUIs/humans and APIs/programs → Build for agents!
