Interesting one! thanks for sharing.


The author is yet a child. The hype inside him is normal.


It's not just him though. His views are very common in AI labs, who actually build these systems and have better visibility than the rest of us on what's going on.


For context: The author was 19 years old when he graduated from Columbia University in 2021. He's about 22 now.


Thanks!


Thanks!


Why?


I want to learn and grow in this area


This is a cliche answer but I think you have to genuinely have the problem or be very near to it to come up with a good idea and afterwards execution.

Throughout my life I had several projects that I've never launched. This time I decided to go till the end and launch this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dutchspeak...

Last year I've been preparing for Dutch Speaking Exams without a tutor (using Babbel and ChatGPT) and I really neede a dedicated app to quickly prepare me for the exam. So this project was born from the my actual need I had.

During implementation though I figured that it's easier to come up with new ideas (as working on something spawns ideas or at least ideas of pivoting).


Cool!
