> but for now, if i want to have a good focus flow, without having to go back and try and fix transcriptions and such, or even worse, having to re-say everything that i initially said, i'm just going to stick with OpenAI's Whisper API for now. and then of course, Sonnet 3.6 for post-transcription touch-ups.

> when i first started using Cursor a little over a year ago, i really felt the "10x programmer" meme. especially since i was already so comfortable with the terminal and setting up automations in a pseudo-agent type of way with file watchers and procedures and loops...
> 
> you get the idea. now, with the latest Cursor update, where it has the agent feature, that initial 10x feels like another 10x. it's a steep learning curve, which isn't obvious from a first glance, even for those that use Cursor or code-gen tools every day.

> Prediction: within the next year there will be a pretty sharp transition of focus in AI from general user adoption to the ability to accelerate science and engineering.
> 
> For the past two years it has been about user base and general adoption across the public. This is very natural because user growth is a critical part any business model. But at this point I would say that there is widespread accessibility of LLMs: for most queries from the average person on earth, many LLMs can answer pretty well.
> 
> In the upcoming five years I think the focal point will be the ability for AI to accelerate engineering and scientific research, which is the engine of progress in technology. At the frontier of innovation in any field, by definition there will be many open questions and a lot of headroom for better AI to make a difference. The stakes will be very high because progress compounds and also because AI accelerating AI research itself is a strong positive feedback loop.
> 
> The other way of saying this is that there is somewhat limited headroom for improving the average user query, but massive headroom for improving the experience for the 1% of queries that would accelerate technological advancement, as well as on queries that people would want to ask the model but currently don’t because models are not smart enough to answer. AI research tends to improve where there is great headroom, and in scientific innovation there be substantial upside.

> Again, I don't see this in any... mainstream American robotics company right now. Maybe we have all of this behind the scenes, but... it's just very weird to see this coming from random Chinese startups. If we have these behind the scenes, what does China have behind the scenes?
