Season 1 Ep. 22 OpenAI's Ilya Sutskever: The man who made AI work

[@RickardHallerback]

He is so pedagogical in the way he speaks. He makes it easy to follow and understand. Only someone who knows what they are talking about can make these types of clarifications on these different complicated topics.

Yes, sometimes the best in their fields are also the best teachers in their fields, e.g. Richard Feynman. They have the brains to see the forest from the trees, and will explain the keys concepts so that you can see where the details fit into the general framework.

[@ELECTR0HERMIT]

This is what TRUE GENIUS looks and sounds like folks. Not sitting around theorizing, but actually solving and making a next level invention. I'm so glad these guys are so young, we need a lifetime of young innovators perfecting AI, which will in turn perfect AI which in turn will perfect AI and create a self-realization system that improves exponentially. We will need this to save the planet and develop medicine and power supplies and other future challenges. I'm very very grateful and excited because things are taking off right this very minute. Hang on tight.

[@MrAshu-mx4dh]

absolutely

[@AADVS-RPY]

Absolutely! It's incredible to witness the drive and innovation these young minds bring to AI. They're not just theorizing but actively creating groundbreaking solutions like training bots for Dota, which seemed impossible at first. Their dedication to pushing the boundaries of AI will undoubtedly lead to transformative advancements across various fields, from healthcare to sustainable energy. The future truly looks promising with these young innovators at the helm!

[@AlecsStan]

These people are historical figures. These are the giants that give their shoulders for future generations to stand on.

[@AlecsStan]

@Intel Bro You are aware of his bio and the fact he cofounded Open AI and developed GPT? What have you done?

[@foreverseethe]

​@Intel Bro paid by who? I was going to make a joke about robots standing on our slumped shoulders, but your lack of awareness is more ridiculous.

[@imnbsp]

I'm not sure there will be any more generations because these individuals have opened the Pandora's box which imposes significant dangers to the future of life on earth.

[@fanyang1968]

THE best interview about LLM, GPT, OpenAI and Illya's great work! Thanks a million!

[@OsvaldoQuino]

Hello there... Ilya, good to see you again, Mr Pieter , Thanks for you program, looking forward to see it more you program. 👍💯👍🥃

[@JousefLITE]

Definitely one of my favorite episodes in this season! Thanks Pieter!

[@TheRobotBrainsPodcast]

Great to hear!

[@briancase9527]

It's interesting to listen to this today just for what it is, of course, but also because ChatGPT was, at least from the perspective of the wider world, a year away. Thanks for the interview.

[@AADVS-RPY]

Listening to Andrew Ross Sorkin discuss the early days of OpenAI with Greg Brockman is eye-opening. It's fascinating how they saw a gap in AI development and seized the opportunity to create something innovative. The way they tackled complex challenges like training bots for Dota, against all odds, shows the power of their approach. It's inspiring to hear how they pushed the boundaries of reinforcement learning, debunking initial skepticism with each milestone. Definitely a must-watch for anyone curious about the intersection of AI and gaming!

[@balapillai]

Ilya Sutskever. He who inflected AI. The magnitude genius. What great inspiration and company to my toil on steps to infinity & the source of pessimism. The first village in human evolution would not be possible with the amount of pessimism we have now. Let this sink in!

[@LoisSharbel]

Thank you for this fascinating interview. It is dense information for me, with NO study in these fields at all, yet with your charming enthusiasm, interesting questions and Ilya's meticulous answers, I am able to glimpse the processes that have led to such exciting discoveries. I am in awe of individuals like this man, you, Geoff Hinton and Elon Musk, who are openiing our minds to horizons unimagined even recently. THANK YOU!

[@osalicsomonic6069]

Absolutely great talk! Thank you. Must Rewatch, I guess.

[@prabhavkaula9697]

Thank you so much Pieter sir. This podcast is a gem.

[@TheYashakami]

This is one of the better interviews I've seen. Well done

[@nichengmo]

He is literally the smartest person behind Open AI.

One Love! Always forward, never ever backward!! ☀☀☀ 💚💛❤ 🙏🏿🙏🙏🏼

[@emiliomorales2843]

Thank you for this episode. Also It would be great listen to Alex Graves and Aäron van den Oord

[@OsvaldoQuino]

Hey big guy... Every day with be make to learn, but every time you explain something is the moment that I learn the most... Thanks you. 👍🦾

[@Kage1128]

cant believe im only discovering ur podcast now so underrated! amazing questions! wow!

Welcome aboard!

Great conversation. Thanks for sharing this

[@zeweichu550]

Ilya is a genius we should protect.

[@rrr00bb1]

Jeff Hawkins was going on about prediction being the key to everything; in an old video from maybe a few years ago. That always stuck with me. If you have senses and actuators, they are equivalent to current input, and current output. If your brain predicts how something will feel before it is touched, or predict what you will see in the next frame; then you have a generalized basis for your senses to supervise the learning. It is definitely intuitive when it's a matter of predicting the next word.

[@asheshdhakal4755]

Jeff Hawkins is awesome

[@JoePiotti]

So when AI makes a Time Machine, this is the guy we will have to go back in time to stop.

[@EccentricHusky]

He’s Miles Bennett Dyson

[@rui569]

Well and simple explained. Almost looks a easy matter.

[@aslanyureky]

WOW ! Thanks for the interview with the legend coder

[@joeremus9039]

He has great insight and is very good at explaining the core concepts. Neural nets are the way to go. Dr Chomsky believes that the are important structures embedded in our minds in addition to the fluid neural nets. Anyone care to create a Chomsky bot that would fool any interviewer into thinking they are speaking with the real Noam Chomsky?

[@JordanKlimp-rz1go]

Excellent 🎼

[@oneflow1934]

Hi, Pieter, your podcast is very inspiring to me. I wonder whether we can translate the closed captions of some podcast into Chinese and publish the content as blogs. We will keep the original link of video in the blog. I believe many others like me will find the content inspiring but didn't know your podcast before.

[@TheRobotBrainsPodcast]

Certainly! We support the sharing of information with the proper citations. Thank you for back linking to us!

[@oneflow1934]

@@TheRobotBrainsPodcast thanks very much.

[@TheAIEpiphany]

Cool episode Pieter! It'd be cool to hear a bit more details about Ilya's life and his way of working and thinking about the world. It felt slightly (khm khm :)) ) terse from his side: either because of his cultural background, personality or simply because that's his and OpenAI's secret sauce. :P

[@dreamphoenix]

Thank you.

[@johnpenner5182]

great interview, with some good probing into the insights (deeper vs wider nets). lolz at his dig about using a convNet (convolutional neural network) could provide good intution for GO compared to the 'non-neural network goblin systems at the time'. 🤣

[@billyblackburn864]

i have over 6000 hours in dota 2, i remember when openai showed out at the International. thats when i really saw AI do something amazing for the first time

[@alex-h-dev]

WOW! Amazing

I wanted to ask you about the Geoffrey Hinton podcast, when will it be shared? (You hinted sometime in june)🤔

I'll be listening to this until I understand it all.

[@AxiomaticArt]

Is there a transcript of this podcast?

[@RaviAnnaswamy]

I dont know about official transcript but you can get a usable one, in case you did not know, from this page. If you click on the three dots next to 'SAVE' and choose Open Transcript, the ttimestamped transcript appears on the right of the video. If you want a downloadable copy, you can toggle timestamps (remove) and then copy paste into a document. If you already knew this, sorry for repeating.

Fascinating. Leaves me wondering about why biological evolution invented neural networks. Doubtful that the primary driver was enjoyment though.
