Very simplified about the AI revolution happening now. We are only at its very beginning. Next, automation and integration among different AIs will increase, leading to more and more complex tasks.

There are still many problems, such as - training a truly large model, and making it accessible for general use is still very expensive and very energy-consuming. It is still not very clear what to do with regulations, because it works both ways, making it significantly easier to assemble some kind of bomb at home.

But the directions of development are already marked, which are improving speed, reducing costs, and improving tools for users and developers. For example, here is a video where an LLM goes into the database, and just by the structure of the tables(!) it makes the necessary query and displays the data it has retrieved with this query, with explanations for the user.

Yes, what I did now on the video in 7 minutes could not have been imagined a few years ago. So, everything becomes more interesting and more frightening.
