Ditto- I have a feeling the investors in his latest 2.3 quintillion dollar series Z round wouldn't be as happy if he'd have tweeted "there is a wall"

My interpretation of that tweet is "there is no DATA wall" meaning "we have so much more data we can ingest: all of youtube, all of spotify, all of twitch, every real-time webcam feed on the internet, RL agents playing every video game on steam, and we can extract so much more learning per unit data than we are now" which seems plausible enough to me.

The more Sam Altman posts stuff like this, the more he comes across as a grifter hype man to me
