1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
All right, so get ready because today we're going deep into a paper

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:05,840
Yeah.

3
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:09,840
that's making some serious waves in the AI world.

4
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:10,440
It is.

5
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:14,120
It's called Relational Neurosymbolic Markov Models.

6
00:00:14,120 --> 00:00:14,960
Wow.

7
00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:15,640
Yeah.

8
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:19,280
And I know it sounds a little intimidating.

9
00:00:19,280 --> 00:00:19,780
It does.

10
00:00:19,780 --> 00:00:20,880
Something on a Star Trek.

11
00:00:20,880 --> 00:00:22,080
Yeah, a little bit, right?

12
00:00:22,080 --> 00:00:25,880
But stick with us because the ideas here

13
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,280
are worth wrapping your head around.

14
00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,480
I think what's exciting about this paper

15
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:32,440
is that it really gets at a fundamental challenge in AI,

16
00:00:32,440 --> 00:00:36,640
which is how do we build systems that can both learn

17
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:39,920
from data, but also reason logically?

18
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,360
Yeah, and we've talked about symbolic AI a lot on this show.

19
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,960
And this idea of logic versus just brute force pattern

20
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:48,560
recognition.

21
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:49,760
Yeah, exactly.

22
00:00:49,760 --> 00:00:51,720
So this is kind of getting into that.

23
00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:54,320
Now, I know Markov models might sound a little scary.

24
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:54,920
Oh, yeah.

25
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,640
But you've probably encountered them

26
00:00:57,640 --> 00:00:59,000
without even realizing it.

27
00:00:59,000 --> 00:00:59,600
Yeah.

28
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:03,360
Think about things like weather prediction apps,

29
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,440
in short, or even your phone's auto correct.

30
00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:06,240
Yeah.

31
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:11,400
They use Markov models to predict the next word based

32
00:01:11,400 --> 00:01:12,160
on the current word.

33
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:12,760
That's right.

34
00:01:12,760 --> 00:01:17,320
And that core idea predicting the future based on the present

35
00:01:17,320 --> 00:01:19,200
is surprisingly powerful.

36
00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:21,960
It underpins so many AI applications.

37
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:23,120
Yeah, it's really cool.

38
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,280
And I think that's why a lot of people

39
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:27,720
get a little intimidated by it because they're like, wait,

40
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:28,920
you could predict the future.

41
00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:29,880
Yeah.

42
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,960
How does that even work?

43
00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:32,840
Right, but in a limited sense, right?

44
00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:33,560
Right, exactly.

45
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:35,280
Like we're not talking about like, you know.

46
00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:36,080
And travel.

47
00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:37,280
Yeah, exactly.

48
00:01:37,280 --> 00:01:38,480
Yeah, but it's still.

49
00:01:38,480 --> 00:01:40,080
It's still a very powerful idea.

50
00:01:40,080 --> 00:01:43,800
And it's actually pretty intuitive when you think about it.

51
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:46,840
Yeah, and so what this paper is doing

52
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,840
is taking that simple idea and like turbo charging it.

53
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,280
With this neurosymbolic AI.

54
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,840
Yeah, this neurosymbolic AI.

55
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,120
Which is this really fascinating field

56
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:58,680
where we're trying to bring together.

57
00:01:58,680 --> 00:01:59,180
Right.

58
00:01:59,180 --> 00:02:02,720
These two really powerful approaches to AI.

59
00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:04,800
Neural networks, which are all about learning from data.

60
00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:05,640
Right.

61
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:10,480
And symbolic reasoning, which is about using logic and rules.

62
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:14,440
Yeah, so instead of just mimicking patterns,

63
00:02:14,440 --> 00:02:17,040
they're actually trying to like understand

64
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:18,920
the why behind their actions.

65
00:02:18,920 --> 00:02:21,480
Exactly, and that's where these TMMs,

66
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:23,800
Relational Neurosymbolic Markov Models come in.

67
00:02:23,800 --> 00:02:24,560
Nesias.

68
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:25,040
Yeah.

69
00:02:25,040 --> 00:02:25,360
I love it.

70
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:26,080
That's a mouthful.

71
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:26,720
It's catchy.

72
00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:28,120
It is a mouthful.

73
00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,600
So they're using this Nesi approach

74
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,080
to make Markov models even smarter.

75
00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,960
But like, how does that benefit us?

76
00:02:37,960 --> 00:02:41,160
So imagine a world where you go to the doctor.

77
00:02:41,160 --> 00:02:41,400
OK.

78
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,960
And the doctor's using an AI diagnostic tool.

79
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:44,560
Right.

80
00:02:44,560 --> 00:02:47,440
And that tool not only gives you a diagnosis,

81
00:02:47,440 --> 00:02:51,160
but also explains its reasoning in clear logical steps.

82
00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:51,800
Yeah.

83
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:54,200
That's the kind of trust and transparency

84
00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,400
that these Nesi MMS could bring to AI.

85
00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:57,760
And that makes a huge difference.

86
00:02:57,760 --> 00:03:02,000
Because if you don't know why, the AI is doing what it's doing.

87
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,120
It's really hard to trust it.

88
00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:04,240
Exactly.

89
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,640
Or think about self-driving cars.

90
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:07,560
Oh, yeah.

91
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:11,120
That can not only learn from driving data,

92
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:15,040
but also understand traffic laws at a logical level.

93
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:18,520
That leads to safer and more reliable autonomous vehicles.

94
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:20,080
OK, so this is already blowing my mind.

95
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:20,880
So let's break it down.

96
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:21,320
Right.

97
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,000
How do these Nesi MMS actually work?

98
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:26,720
So think of it as two interconnected parts.

99
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:27,120
OK.

100
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,160
First, you have these neural networks

101
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,560
that process raw data, like images,

102
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,960
sensor readings, things like that.

103
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,240
These networks act like a translator,

104
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,480
converting that complex data into a simplified symbolic

105
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:43,840
representation.

106
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,520
So they're kind of like taking this complex data

107
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,360
and turning it into a language that logic can work with.

108
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:50,120
Exactly.

109
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:52,040
And that's where the second part comes in.

110
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:54,640
These symbolic representations are then

111
00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:57,520
fed into this logical reasoning engine

112
00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,600
that can apply predefined rules and constraints.

113
00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,800
So it's kind of like you're giving the AI a rulebook

114
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:10,320
and saying, OK, based on what you're seeing and the rules,

115
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,600
what's the most logical action to take?

116
00:04:12,600 --> 00:04:13,720
That's a great way to put it.

117
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,880
So it's learning from experience

118
00:04:15,880 --> 00:04:17,200
through those neural networks.

119
00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,880
But it's also applying reason and logic

120
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,560
through that symbolic system.

121
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:27,080
And the beauty of this approach is that it's probabilistic,

122
00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:29,520
meaning it can handle uncertainty,

123
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:31,920
make predictions based on probabilities.

124
00:04:31,920 --> 00:04:33,360
Just like we do in the real world.

125
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:34,400
Just like we do.

126
00:04:34,400 --> 00:04:34,680
All right.

127
00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,040
So we've got the basics down.

128
00:04:36,040 --> 00:04:37,000
Yeah.

129
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:41,840
But to really appreciate the power of these NSEMs,

130
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:43,680
we need to see them in action, right?

131
00:04:43,680 --> 00:04:44,560
Absolutely.

132
00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:48,760
The researchers put these NSEMs to the test

133
00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,800
using a video game called Minnehack, which

134
00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:55,320
is known for its complex rules and really unpredictable

135
00:04:55,320 --> 00:04:56,160
scenarios.

136
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,240
So it's a good testing ground.

137
00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:57,760
Yeah.

138
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,240
They wanted to see how well these models could learn,

139
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,560
adapt, and generalize their knowledge.

140
00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:05,080
Video games and AI.

141
00:05:05,080 --> 00:05:06,440
Always a good combination.

142
00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:07,640
So what do they find?

143
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:09,960
Well, they did two main experiments,

144
00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:13,440
focusing on two key capabilities of AI,

145
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:16,120
generation and discrimination.

146
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:16,360
OK.

147
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:19,400
So before we dive into that, mind me what those are again.

148
00:05:19,400 --> 00:05:22,560
So generation is all about creating something new.

149
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:22,960
OK.

150
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,800
Think about composing a piece of music

151
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,240
based on what it's learned.

152
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:27,640
Yeah.

153
00:05:27,640 --> 00:05:30,280
Discrimination is more about categorizing things.

154
00:05:30,280 --> 00:05:30,780
OK.

155
00:05:30,780 --> 00:05:33,480
Identifying if a picture has a cat or a dog in it.

156
00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:33,960
Got it.

157
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:38,400
So they were basically testing if these NSEMMs could

158
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:40,200
create new game scenarios.

159
00:05:40,200 --> 00:05:40,920
Mm-hmm.

160
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:41,560
Mm-hmm.

161
00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:42,240
That made sense.

162
00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:43,040
Yeah.

163
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:46,680
And also accurately analyze existing scenarios.

164
00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:47,680
Exactly.

165
00:05:47,680 --> 00:05:48,200
OK.

166
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:50,280
And what they found was fascinating.

167
00:05:50,280 --> 00:05:51,480
Well, don't leave me hanging.

168
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:52,080
OK.

169
00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:52,800
What happened?

170
00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:54,960
In the generative experiment, they

171
00:05:54,960 --> 00:05:58,840
tasked the NSEMM with creating new game screens for Minnehack.

172
00:05:58,840 --> 00:05:59,440
OK.

173
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:02,680
That actually followed the game's very complex rule.

174
00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,400
So it's like giving the AI a paint brush and saying,

175
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,640
all right, paint me a plausible Minnehack scene.

176
00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:09,480
Exactly.

177
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:12,720
And what surprised them was that the NSEMM wasn't just

178
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:14,800
mimicking what it had seen.

179
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,880
It was generating new game states

180
00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,000
that were logically consistent.

181
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,600
That's a big deal.

182
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:21,280
Yeah, it is.

183
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:22,760
Because it's one thing to copy.

184
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:23,200
Right.

185
00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:25,240
It's another to truly understand.

186
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:26,000
Yeah.

187
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,520
And create something new.

188
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:28,240
Exactly.

189
00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:32,000
It suggests that the NSEMM was able to internalize

190
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:35,080
the logic of the game at a much deeper level.

191
00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:35,680
Wow.

192
00:06:35,680 --> 00:06:37,080
Now, the second experiment.

193
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:37,560
OK.

194
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:41,960
The discriminative task got even more interesting.

195
00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:42,240
All right.

196
00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:43,280
I'm on the edge of my seat.

197
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:43,720
OK.

198
00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:44,520
Tell me more.

199
00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:46,240
This time they wanted to see.

200
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:46,440
Yeah.

201
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,800
If the NSEMM could predict whether a player would die.

202
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:51,280
OK.

203
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:53,040
In a given Minnehack sequence.

204
00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,880
Ooh, a life or death scenario.

205
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:55,360
Yeah.

206
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:59,160
So they just show the AI a bunch of gameplay.

207
00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:02,320
Well, not exactly to make it more challenging.

208
00:07:02,320 --> 00:07:06,520
They only gave the AI the symbolic representation

209
00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:07,640
of the game state.

210
00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:07,960
Hold on.

211
00:07:07,960 --> 00:07:11,120
So they were asking the AI to predict the outcome?

212
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:11,400
Yeah.

213
00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:12,680
Without even seeing the game.

214
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:13,280
Right.

215
00:07:13,280 --> 00:07:15,880
That's like trying to figure out who's winning a chess match.

216
00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:16,160
Yeah.

217
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:17,720
Just by looking at the notation.

218
00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:18,080
Right.

219
00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:19,400
And like the actual board.

220
00:07:19,400 --> 00:07:19,760
OK.

221
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:20,400
That's tough.

222
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:20,720
Yeah.

223
00:07:20,720 --> 00:07:22,560
And to make it even tougher.

224
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:23,160
Yeah.

225
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,840
They intentionally left out some information.

226
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:26,360
Oh, no.

227
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,720
About how the enemies in the game behaved.

228
00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:30,360
So they're really putting it through the ringer.

229
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,040
Yeah.

230
00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:32,520
Like an incomplete rule book.

231
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:33,000
Wow.

232
00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:33,440
OK.

233
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:34,160
So how to do?

234
00:07:34,160 --> 00:07:35,600
Remarkably well.

235
00:07:35,600 --> 00:07:36,200
Really?

236
00:07:36,200 --> 00:07:38,320
Even with this missing information.

237
00:07:38,320 --> 00:07:38,640
OK.

238
00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:42,080
The NSEMMs were able to combine the rules they did know.

239
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:43,000
Mm-hmm.

240
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:44,800
With the patterns they'd learned.

241
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:45,200
Right.

242
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,840
To pretty accurately predict.

243
00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:47,280
Wow.

244
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:49,080
Whether the player would survive.

245
00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:50,480
So it's like they were able to fill in.

246
00:07:50,480 --> 00:07:50,880
Yeah.

247
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,080
The gaps in their knowledge.

248
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:52,760
Mm-hmm.

249
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,040
By thinking logically.

250
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:54,760
Exactly.

251
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:56,880
Not just relying on what they'd seen before.

252
00:07:56,880 --> 00:07:57,720
That's right.

253
00:07:57,720 --> 00:07:59,280
And to push it even further.

254
00:07:59,280 --> 00:07:59,960
OK.

255
00:07:59,960 --> 00:08:04,280
They tested these models on increasingly complex versions

256
00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:04,960
of the game.

257
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:05,600
Right.

258
00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,080
Changing the map size, the enemy count, the sequence length.

259
00:08:09,080 --> 00:08:10,200
So they really wanted to see.

260
00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:10,600
Yeah.

261
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,720
If it could handle anything they could throw at it.

262
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:13,920
Exactly.

263
00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:14,960
So what was the verdict?

264
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:19,400
The NSEMMs consistently outperformed the other models.

265
00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:19,680
OK.

266
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:23,680
Especially when things got really complex and unpredictable.

267
00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:24,240
Yeah.

268
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:26,400
They showed this impressive ability

269
00:08:26,400 --> 00:08:28,960
to generalize their knowledge.

270
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:29,480
Mm-hmm.

271
00:08:29,480 --> 00:08:31,480
And adapt to new situations.

272
00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,360
Which is really crucial.

273
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:33,640
Right.

274
00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,440
For any AI system that's going to operate in the real world.

275
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:36,680
Yeah.

276
00:08:36,680 --> 00:08:38,760
Because the real world is messy.

277
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:39,520
It is.

278
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:40,440
It's unpredictable.

279
00:08:40,440 --> 00:08:40,760
It is.

280
00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:41,720
Things change all the time.

281
00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:42,480
That's right.

282
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,440
So you need an AI that can roll with the punches.

283
00:08:45,440 --> 00:08:46,080
Exactly.

284
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:49,160
And I'm starting to see why this research is generating

285
00:08:49,160 --> 00:08:50,240
so much buzz.

286
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:51,760
It's really exciting stuff.

287
00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:52,320
It is.

288
00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,840
But before we get too carried away with all the potential here.

289
00:08:55,840 --> 00:08:56,640
Mm-hmm.

290
00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,440
Let's kind of step back and consider

291
00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:03,160
both the strengths and the limitations of this approach.

292
00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:03,960
Of course.

293
00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:06,760
Because no technology is perfect.

294
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:08,360
No technology is perfect.

295
00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:08,920
Right.

296
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:09,360
You're right.

297
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:10,560
No technology is perfect.

298
00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:11,120
Yeah.

299
00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:11,880
But uh.

300
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:13,280
But this one's pretty cool.

301
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:14,160
It is pretty cool.

302
00:09:14,160 --> 00:09:15,400
On the positive side.

303
00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:16,000
Yeah.

304
00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:18,720
These NECMs they've shown.

305
00:09:18,720 --> 00:09:21,760
These remarkable generalization abilities.

306
00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:22,760
Right.

307
00:09:22,760 --> 00:09:25,320
They can handle incomplete information.

308
00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:26,000
Yeah.

309
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:27,440
Really gracefully.

310
00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:28,240
Which is important.

311
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,280
Which is huge.

312
00:09:29,280 --> 00:09:30,480
In the real world.

313
00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,560
Yeah.

314
00:09:31,560 --> 00:09:33,840
And the use of these logical rules.

315
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,680
Mm-hmm.

316
00:09:34,680 --> 00:09:37,240
Make some way more transparent.

317
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:37,760
Yeah.

318
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:40,480
Than your typical black box AI.

319
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:42,040
And that transparency is huge.

320
00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:42,400
Yeah.

321
00:09:42,400 --> 00:09:45,520
Especially if we're talking about AI making decisions.

322
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:45,720
Mm-hmm.

323
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:47,040
That affect our lives.

324
00:09:47,040 --> 00:09:47,680
Right.

325
00:09:47,680 --> 00:09:48,120
You know.

326
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,080
It's reassuring to know that we can understand

327
00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:53,440
why the AI is doing what it's doing.

328
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:54,200
Exactly.

329
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,200
It's not just a magic black box.

330
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:56,480
Yeah.

331
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:57,280
No magic.

332
00:09:57,280 --> 00:09:57,480
Yeah.

333
00:09:57,480 --> 00:09:58,280
However.

334
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:58,960
But.

335
00:09:58,960 --> 00:10:00,480
There are hurdles to overcome.

336
00:10:00,480 --> 00:10:01,160
OK.

337
00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:03,400
The paper itself acknowledges.

338
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:03,880
Mm-hmm.

339
00:10:03,880 --> 00:10:06,200
This issue of scalability.

340
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:06,640
Right.

341
00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:07,760
These NECMMs.

342
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:08,280
Yeah.

343
00:10:08,280 --> 00:10:10,240
At least in their current form.

344
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:10,640
Mm-hmm.

345
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:13,600
Can be computationally expensive to train.

346
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:14,560
So it's kind of like.

347
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:14,920
Yeah.

348
00:10:14,920 --> 00:10:16,680
Having a brilliant chef.

349
00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:17,240
Oh, right.

350
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,680
Who can create these incredible dishes.

351
00:10:20,680 --> 00:10:21,120
Mm-hmm.

352
00:10:21,120 --> 00:10:23,240
But only in a tiny kitchen.

353
00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:23,640
Yeah.

354
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,160
With limited equipment.

355
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,080
That's a great analogy.

356
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:27,720
They need a bigger space.

357
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:28,080
Mm-hmm.

358
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,280
To really shine.

359
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:30,280
Exactly.

360
00:10:30,280 --> 00:10:33,440
And beyond just the computational challenges.

361
00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:33,800
Yeah.

362
00:10:33,800 --> 00:10:35,960
There's the ongoing task of finding.

363
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:36,520
Oh.

364
00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:37,840
That sweet spot.

365
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:38,200
Right.

366
00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,280
Between the neural network learning.

367
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:41,880
Yeah.

368
00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:43,320
And the symbolic reasoning.

369
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:44,360
It's a balancing act.

370
00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:45,480
It is a balancing act.

371
00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,920
It's like finding the perfect recipe for AI.

372
00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:48,240
Right.

373
00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:48,560
Exactly.

374
00:10:48,560 --> 00:10:49,640
But all in all.

375
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,200
It seems like these NECMs.

376
00:10:52,200 --> 00:10:53,200
Mm-hmm.

377
00:10:53,200 --> 00:10:55,600
Are a promising step forward.

378
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:55,800
Yeah.

379
00:10:55,800 --> 00:10:56,840
In AI research.

380
00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:57,160
I think.

381
00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,400
It's not just about making AI smarter.

382
00:10:59,400 --> 00:10:59,640
Right.

383
00:10:59,640 --> 00:11:00,920
It's about making it.

384
00:11:00,920 --> 00:11:02,920
It's about making it more reliable.

385
00:11:02,920 --> 00:11:03,160
Yeah.

386
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:03,920
More understandable.

387
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:04,920
We're beaptable.

388
00:11:04,920 --> 00:11:05,160
Yeah.

389
00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:06,400
All the things that we want.

390
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,160
Exactly.

391
00:11:07,160 --> 00:11:10,120
Yeah. That shift from pure pattern recognition.

392
00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:12,400
To AI that can actually reason.

393
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:12,600
Right.

394
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:15,560
That's what excites me the most about this research.

395
00:11:15,560 --> 00:11:15,680
No.

396
00:11:15,680 --> 00:11:16,880
I can't help but wonder.

397
00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:17,640
Yeah.

398
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:20,400
Like what are some real world applications.

399
00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:20,880
Sure.

400
00:11:20,880 --> 00:11:22,120
Beyond video games.

401
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:22,720
Mm-hmm.

402
00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,120
Where these NECMMs could make a difference.

403
00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:26,880
The potential is vast.

404
00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:27,480
Yeah.

405
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:30,880
One area that's ripe for disruption is robotics.

406
00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:31,600
Oh yeah.

407
00:11:31,600 --> 00:11:33,600
Imagine robots in manufacturing.

408
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:34,160
Mm-hmm.

409
00:11:34,160 --> 00:11:35,280
Or healthcare.

410
00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:35,760
OK.

411
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:40,680
That can not only perform these complex tasks.

412
00:11:40,680 --> 00:11:41,040
Right.

413
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:46,280
But also adapt to unexpected changes in their environment.

414
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:46,640
Right.

415
00:11:46,640 --> 00:11:47,800
Because that's the thing.

416
00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:48,000
Yeah.

417
00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:50,800
The real world is not a controlled laboratory

418
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:51,800
where all things happen.

419
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:52,360
All the time.

420
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:53,480
You've got to be able to roll with it.

421
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:54,080
That's right.

422
00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:55,680
And all while adhering.

423
00:11:55,680 --> 00:11:56,160
Yeah.

424
00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,440
To a set of like logical safety protocols.

425
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:00,160
Exactly.

426
00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:03,400
So we have these robots that are not only more versatile.

427
00:12:03,400 --> 00:12:03,840
Right.

428
00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:06,280
More reliable but also safer.

429
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:06,760
Yeah.

430
00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:08,720
We don't want robots going rogue.

431
00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:09,520
No we don't.

432
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:13,240
And it's a far cry from those kind of rigid.

433
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:13,600
Right.

434
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,280
Pre-programmed robots we see today.

435
00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:19,040
It's like going from Arumba to Rosie the Robot.

436
00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:19,880
Exactly.

437
00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:21,480
And speaking of collaboration.

438
00:12:21,480 --> 00:12:22,160
Oh yeah.

439
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:23,560
What about education.

440
00:12:23,560 --> 00:12:24,720
Oh that's a good one.

441
00:12:24,720 --> 00:12:28,120
Could these NECMMs change how we learn.

442
00:12:28,120 --> 00:12:28,680
I think so.

443
00:12:28,680 --> 00:12:29,360
Absolutely.

444
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:32,400
We already have AI powered learning platforms.

445
00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:33,040
Right.

446
00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:36,480
But imagine a personalized AI tutor.

447
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:36,840
OK.

448
00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,400
That can understand your unique learning style.

449
00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:39,960
Yeah.

450
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:42,600
Taylor it's approach to your needs.

451
00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:46,200
Explain complex concepts in a way that makes sense to you.

452
00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,080
So it's like having a personal tutor.

453
00:12:48,080 --> 00:12:48,400
Yeah.

454
00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:50,200
Who's available 24 seven.

455
00:12:50,200 --> 00:12:50,800
Exactly.

456
00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:52,480
And never gets tired of explaining things.

457
00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,720
And because these AI tutors.

458
00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:55,480
Right.

459
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,200
Would be grounded in logical reasoning.

460
00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:00,960
We could have more confidence that they're

461
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:02,760
teaching accurate information.

462
00:13:02,760 --> 00:13:03,080
Yeah.

463
00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:03,840
That's a big deal.

464
00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:05,120
Consistent information.

465
00:13:05,120 --> 00:13:06,000
Especially these days.

466
00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:06,320
It is.

467
00:13:06,320 --> 00:13:09,120
It could revolutionize education as we know it.

468
00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:10,880
Personalized robots.

469
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:11,080
Yeah.

470
00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:12,640
AI tutors.

471
00:13:12,640 --> 00:13:14,640
It seems like the possibilities are endless.

472
00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:16,040
They really are.

473
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,240
But there's one area we haven't touched on yet.

474
00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:18,960
OK.

475
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,800
Transportation.

476
00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:21,320
Yes.

477
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,600
Given all this talk about self-driving cars.

478
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:24,240
Right.

479
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,520
I'm curious how these NECMMs.

480
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:26,920
Yeah.

481
00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:28,720
Could fit into that picture.

482
00:13:28,720 --> 00:13:29,680
That's a great point.

483
00:13:29,680 --> 00:13:31,320
Because that's a really big one.

484
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:31,840
It is.

485
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:32,920
With AI, right?

486
00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:33,200
Yeah.

487
00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:38,120
Self-driving cars are like the poster child for AI.

488
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:38,720
Right.

489
00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:39,680
For good reason.

490
00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:40,080
Yeah.

491
00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:41,080
The stakes are high.

492
00:13:41,080 --> 00:13:41,480
Yeah.

493
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:42,680
People's lives are at stake.

494
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:42,880
Yeah.

495
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:43,680
Exactly.

496
00:13:43,680 --> 00:13:46,840
So by combining this data driven learning.

497
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:50,160
With logical reasoning about traffic rules.

498
00:13:50,160 --> 00:13:50,640
OK.

499
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:51,840
Safety protocols.

500
00:13:51,840 --> 00:13:52,240
Right.

501
00:13:52,240 --> 00:13:54,920
We could create self-driving systems that

502
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,240
are not only more reliable.

503
00:13:57,240 --> 00:13:57,520
Yeah.

504
00:13:57,520 --> 00:13:59,160
But also more predictable.

505
00:13:59,160 --> 00:13:59,880
And cautious.

506
00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:00,600
And cautious.

507
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:02,560
Which I think is what a lot of people are worried about.

508
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:03,520
They are.

509
00:14:03,520 --> 00:14:05,840
Is that the car is going to be too cautious.

510
00:14:05,840 --> 00:14:06,040
Right.

511
00:14:06,040 --> 00:14:08,520
And it's going to cause more problems than it's solved.

512
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:09,760
But the thing is.

513
00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:10,200
Yeah.

514
00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:15,240
If you can bake in that logical reasoning about safety.

515
00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:15,600
Right.

516
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,880
Then you can actually create a system.

517
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:18,360
Yeah.

518
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:21,640
That understands why it needs to be cautious

519
00:14:21,640 --> 00:14:22,800
in certain situations.

520
00:14:22,800 --> 00:14:26,640
So it's not just reacting to what's happening on the road.

521
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:28,560
It's actually understanding.

522
00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:29,800
Understanding the why.

523
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:30,160
Yeah.

524
00:14:30,160 --> 00:14:31,920
Behind certain driving decisions.

525
00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:32,400
Yeah.

526
00:14:32,400 --> 00:14:35,680
So it can anticipate potential hazards.

527
00:14:35,680 --> 00:14:38,040
Make informed decisions at intersections.

528
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:38,760
Yeah.

529
00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:41,240
Even explain its actions to the passenger.

530
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:42,000
Exactly.

531
00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,120
Which builds trust and confidence.

532
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:44,760
It does.

533
00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:45,400
In the system.

534
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:45,680
Right.

535
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,600
And that trust is really what's going to make or break

536
00:14:48,600 --> 00:14:50,320
the adoption of these technologies.

537
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:52,280
It sounds like NECI MMS.

538
00:14:52,280 --> 00:14:52,800
Yeah.

539
00:14:52,800 --> 00:14:57,480
Could be the key to unlocking a future of truly intelligent

540
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,640
transportation systems.

541
00:14:58,640 --> 00:14:59,200
I think so.

542
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:00,920
And that's just scratching the surface.

543
00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:02,800
We're talking about a technology that

544
00:15:02,800 --> 00:15:06,600
could potentially revolutionize any failed.

545
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,640
Where AI needs to reason.

546
00:15:09,640 --> 00:15:10,760
Adapt.

547
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:11,240
Adapt.

548
00:15:11,240 --> 00:15:12,360
Interact with the world.

549
00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:12,760
Yeah.

550
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:15,160
In a way that aligns with their expectations.

551
00:15:15,160 --> 00:15:16,040
It's exciting.

552
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:16,760
It is exciting.

553
00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:21,640
So the takeaway here is that while NECI MMS.

554
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:22,280
Yeah.

555
00:15:22,280 --> 00:15:22,920
Are still.

556
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:24,200
And they're early stages.

557
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:25,160
Yeah, they're early stages.

558
00:15:25,160 --> 00:15:27,720
The potential impact is enormous.

559
00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:28,160
Right.

560
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,240
We're not saying.

561
00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:29,720
Right.

562
00:15:29,720 --> 00:15:31,200
This is the solution to everything.

563
00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:32,160
The VL end all.

564
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:32,640
Right.

565
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:33,360
But it's definitely.

566
00:15:33,360 --> 00:15:34,480
It's a step in the right direction.

567
00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:35,880
It is a step in the right direction.

568
00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,280
And the journey is only going to get more exciting from here.

569
00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:40,080
I think so.

570
00:15:40,080 --> 00:15:43,040
As researchers continue to refine these models.

571
00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:44,280
And address those.

572
00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:44,560
Right.

573
00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:45,840
Scalability challenges.

574
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,120
Scalability challenges.

575
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,200
Who knows what.

576
00:15:48,200 --> 00:15:48,400
Right.

577
00:15:48,400 --> 00:15:51,360
Round breaking applications.

578
00:15:51,360 --> 00:15:51,920
We'll see.

579
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:53,360
We'll see in the years to come.

580
00:15:53,360 --> 00:15:55,760
It's like we've opened a door.

581
00:15:55,760 --> 00:15:56,240
Yeah.

582
00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:57,000
To this.

583
00:15:57,000 --> 00:16:00,080
To this whole new era of AI.

584
00:16:00,080 --> 00:16:01,680
Whole new era of AI.

585
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:04,800
Where machines can not only learn from data.

586
00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:07,200
But they can understand the world around them.

587
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:07,560
Yeah.

588
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:09,200
In a way that's closer.

589
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:09,560
Yeah.

590
00:16:09,560 --> 00:16:11,480
To how we humans think.

591
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:13,120
And with that new understanding.

592
00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:13,640
Mm-hmm.

593
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:15,440
Comes a greater potential.

594
00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:15,960
Right.

595
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:17,280
For collaboration.

596
00:16:17,280 --> 00:16:18,160
That's problem solving.

597
00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:19,120
For problem solving.

598
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:20,000
And perhaps even.

599
00:16:20,000 --> 00:16:20,400
Yeah.

600
00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:22,240
A deeper understanding of ourselves.

601
00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:23,120
That's a great point.

602
00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:23,720
Mm.

603
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:24,040
Yeah.

604
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:25,920
It really is mind blowing to think about like.

605
00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:26,360
It is.

606
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:27,520
All the ripple effects.

607
00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:28,040
Yeah.

608
00:16:28,040 --> 00:16:29,120
This research could have.

609
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:29,920
Mm-hmm.

610
00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:32,840
We've talked about robots, education, transportation.

611
00:16:32,840 --> 00:16:33,160
Right.

612
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:35,800
Like it feels like Nessiems could be like.

613
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:36,640
Mm-hmm.

614
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:37,840
The missing link.

615
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:38,200
Yeah.

616
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:42,000
To bridging that gap between AI as we know it.

617
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:42,480
Yeah.

618
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,840
And AI as we like imagine it.

619
00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:45,240
Mm-hmm.

620
00:16:45,240 --> 00:16:46,520
In science fiction.

621
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:49,000
It's certainly a powerful concept.

622
00:16:49,000 --> 00:16:49,400
Yeah.

623
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:51,880
But it's important to remember that we're still.

624
00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:53,480
Early and early stages.

625
00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,000
We're not going to solve all the world's problems.

626
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:56,600
Not yet.

627
00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,800
With Nessiems' tomorrow.

628
00:16:58,800 --> 00:16:59,760
Not tomorrow.

629
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:00,160
But.

630
00:17:00,160 --> 00:17:02,040
But it's hard not to get excited.

631
00:17:02,040 --> 00:17:03,080
It is exciting.

632
00:17:03,080 --> 00:17:04,080
About the possibilities.

633
00:17:04,080 --> 00:17:08,400
Imagine a world where AI can not only diagnose diseases.

634
00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,080
But explain its reasoning.

635
00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:10,440
Yeah.

636
00:17:10,440 --> 00:17:11,320
To doctors.

637
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,240
In a way that helps them make better decisions.

638
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:14,240
That would be huge.

639
00:17:14,240 --> 00:17:16,200
Or imagine AI systems.

640
00:17:16,200 --> 00:17:16,560
Yeah.

641
00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,120
That can help scientists.

642
00:17:18,120 --> 00:17:18,480
Mm-hmm.

643
00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:21,240
Model complex systems like climate change.

644
00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:21,360
Right.

645
00:17:21,360 --> 00:17:24,160
With greater accuracy and predictability.

646
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:25,800
So we can make more informed decisions.

647
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:26,480
Working.

648
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:27,840
About our planet's future.

649
00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,120
And let's not forget.

650
00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:29,480
Yeah.

651
00:17:29,480 --> 00:17:33,560
The potential for AI-powered personal assistants.

652
00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:33,840
OK.

653
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:36,200
That can actually understand our needs.

654
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:36,640
Right.

655
00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:38,520
Anticipate our requests.

656
00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:39,120
Ooh.

657
00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:40,560
Like a mind reader.

658
00:17:40,560 --> 00:17:41,200
Almost.

659
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:41,520
Yeah.

660
00:17:41,520 --> 00:17:43,760
And even help us solve creative problems.

661
00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:43,960
OK.

662
00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:44,960
So we're talking about AI.

663
00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:45,400
Yeah.

664
00:17:45,400 --> 00:17:48,840
That's not just like doing things for us.

665
00:17:48,840 --> 00:17:49,200
Right.

666
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:50,520
But it's like helping us.

667
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:51,840
Helping us think better.

668
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,440
Think better be more creative.

669
00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:54,240
Exactly.

670
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:54,800
Wow.

671
00:17:54,800 --> 00:17:56,720
These are all exciting possibilities.

672
00:17:56,720 --> 00:17:57,480
They are.

673
00:17:57,480 --> 00:18:02,440
And I believe NECI-MMs represent a significant step.

674
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:02,920
OK.

675
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:05,800
Towards realizing that vision.

676
00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,400
It's really cool to see.

677
00:18:07,400 --> 00:18:08,080
It is.

678
00:18:08,080 --> 00:18:09,760
How this field is progressing.

679
00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:10,120
Yeah.

680
00:18:10,120 --> 00:18:14,120
Because for a long time it felt like AI was kind of stuck.

681
00:18:14,120 --> 00:18:14,520
Right.

682
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:15,040
In this.

683
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,280
In a rut.

684
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:16,480
Yeah.

685
00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,760
Just like pattern recognition.

686
00:18:18,760 --> 00:18:19,640
Brute force.

687
00:18:19,640 --> 00:18:20,240
Brute force.

688
00:18:20,240 --> 00:18:20,640
Yeah.

689
00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:25,760
And now it's like we're starting to see AI that can actually

690
00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:26,760
reason.

691
00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:27,640
Right.

692
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:28,360
And understand.

693
00:18:28,360 --> 00:18:30,560
And that's the game changer.

694
00:18:30,560 --> 00:18:31,320
That is the game changer.

695
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:34,320
By combining the strengths of data driven learning.

696
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:34,680
Right.

697
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:36,920
With the power of logical reasoning.

698
00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:39,200
We're opening up this whole new frontier.

699
00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:40,440
And with any new frontier.

700
00:18:40,440 --> 00:18:41,000
Right.

701
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:42,320
There are going to be challenges.

702
00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:43,040
Oh absolutely.

703
00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:44,240
Unexpected discoveries.

704
00:18:44,240 --> 00:18:45,120
Yeah.

705
00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:46,120
Setbacks.

706
00:18:46,120 --> 00:18:46,880
Probably.

707
00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:47,680
Probably.

708
00:18:47,680 --> 00:18:49,320
But that's what makes it so exciting.

709
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:49,800
Exactly.

710
00:18:49,800 --> 00:18:51,720
It's a constant process.

711
00:18:51,720 --> 00:18:52,040
Yeah.

712
00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:53,160
Of exploration.

713
00:18:53,160 --> 00:18:53,960
Experimentation.

714
00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:54,680
Experimentation.

715
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:55,680
Pushing the boundaries.

716
00:18:55,680 --> 00:18:56,920
Pushing the boundaries.

717
00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:57,240
Yeah.

718
00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,280
Of what's possible.

719
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:00,840
I think that's a great point to end on.

720
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:01,800
I think so too.

721
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:06,880
The future of AI is not just about creating machines.

722
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:07,440
Right.

723
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:08,640
That are smarter than us.

724
00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:09,120
Right.

725
00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:10,800
It's not about just outsmarting us.

726
00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:11,680
It's about.

727
00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:15,120
It's about creating machines that can help us understand.

728
00:19:15,120 --> 00:19:15,560
Yeah.

729
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,440
Our selves and the world around us.

730
00:19:17,440 --> 00:19:18,840
That's right.

731
00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:20,280
In new and profound ways.

732
00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:22,760
And I think that's a really beautiful vision.

733
00:19:22,760 --> 00:19:23,680
It is a beautiful vision.

734
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,120
For the future of AI.

735
00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:26,600
So to everyone listening.

736
00:19:26,600 --> 00:19:26,920
