The most first-principles talk at #
AIECode# came from
@CompleteSkeptic — who co-created RLHF/ChatGPT at OpenAI and now builds Jev.
His point: today’s LLMs are optimized for assistance (a human in the loop), not automation. “95% Einstein, 5% Mr. Bean” is fine for a chatbot and fatal for a back-office decision.
The Bitterest Lesson: compute beats algorithms, data beats compute, and the bitterest part is picking the right task.
Jev’s bet: not bigger, not cheaper, but reliable.
