Yep. The thing is people (maybe because of our limited scope) just focus on the depth and not the breadth. Because this is a general purpose model - it also has PhD+ knowledge in Physics, Biology, History, etc.

I think we still don't really comprehend how much can be achieved by a single "mind" that has internalized so much knowledge from so many areas.



there's so much opportunity on the breadth of things too! I think that you end up having different people focusing on different things though.

Personally I'm a more of a breadth person and I could never compete with peers who where more of the depth type of person at college.

But I get satisfaction from connecting things that feel irrelevant on first sight, that's what drives me.


This is me too.
