It is remarkable how good a lot of these engineers are at hitting a benchmark once you put it out there. And we have something called the Stanford AI Index, which is 420 pages filled with all of these benchmarks. Almost all of them are how well can a machine by itself with no human help solve a…

Eric and Darren also weighed in on how AI might affect other jobs, including paralegals, game designers, and novelists. But for now, we'll end on their advice for those of you just starting out. Okay, so in the, I guess, the minute that we have left or so, Kara asks, how do we speak to college-aged…
