Transcript context
…That could be a great note to end on, but let me just give you one more opportunity. Anything else that I didn't touch on or anything else you just would want to leave people with before we break? No, I think. I think we covered a good lot of information, I think. we went into some things that I don't usually talk about. Now, in my current role as the CEO of the company, I get to talk a lot more about the business opportunities and the market aspects of the intelligence and stuff, but it's still like, at the core, we are scientists and we are really pushing the boundaries. If you're actively thinking about it day-to-day, you can't imagine, even right now, if you're talking, I'm already in the back end. I'm actually like training some stuff, and I really don't want to get away from that kind of mentality, because I think everybody can actually be able to now build, and I think that the times couldn't be better the agents are pretty... amazing, at giving you like this opportunity of really doing frontier, frontier form research. if you're curious about something, it's just that we need to find people that are a lot more curious, and improve the curiosity in people as well, to really get instead of just, fear off, everything. So I'm a techno optimist, and probably you've observed that. Like I usually like talk about technology really in a very, very positive light. And I want people like want, One thing that I always say is that we need to really get to the level where people are as curious as the scientists were, like from day one, like what gets us like into science? And the purpose of science has always been satisfying our own curiosity, and also understanding the world around us, right? So that's kind of the purpose of science. And I feel like that with the current superpowers that are given to us, like with these AI systems, I think everybody could actually start like really contributing to understanding the world around us. to generate more value and also just satisfying our own curiosity. But also it requires a certain degree of rebasing our biases towards like, oh, what is work, what is not, and what is automation? What is an army of agents working for me? What's that definition even look like? And then it's changing culture and changing way of thinking about this thing, not just for individuals, but also for enterprises where we are dealing with as well as Liquid AI. And yeah, so I think that change is something that I'm looking forward to and I think I think there's something that's going to happen. The pace of it is extremely fast, but I think we got to do it one way or another. I love that. I consider myself extremely fortunate to live to a really remarkable degree, a curiosity-driven life these days. And that's one candidate for a positive vision for the future that I think should inspire a lot of people, especially because, as you note, there's an opportunity to move into that phase already with the AI systems that we have. This has been excellent. I really enjoyed it. Thank you so much for the time. Rameen Asani, co-founder and CEO of Liquid AI, thank you for being part of the cognitive revolution.…
