At the end of last year, we're like, all right, we are quite excited about the progress.

We haven't seen the models yet.

It's like, I'm going to write this check for, I don't know, like $100 billion or $200 billion.

I'm like, Alex, are you sure this is going to work?

It was so extreme that we had the whole exec team.

I think Susan scared you a bit.

Yeah, well, yeah, no. Well, it's like the joke every time we talked about it would just be like,

yeah, and we hope it's all going to work and be good.

But there were literally, like the end of last year, other than me giving a vibe report or how our research was going

and it could sort of show some plots and whatnot.

But it was like, I mean, I was feeling good about it, but it was certainly not clear at all that it was going to work.

You guys are saying

that the essence of training a frontier model is you have to push your chips all in before

you've been dealt the cards.

You just have to decide that you're going to develop a frontier model and you don't get to meter the investment.

At this scale.

I mean, back a few years ago, the clusters didn't have to be this big, but now they do.

So I think this is part of the excitement of brooding up a frontier lab

now is basically like the ante is extremely high.

Gölgeleme Tekniği Nedir?

Gölgeleme, başlangıçta profesyonel tercüman eğitimi için geliştirilen ve çok dilli Dr. Alexander Arguelles tarafından popüler hale getirilen, bilim destekli bir dil öğrenme tekniğidir. Yöntem basit ama güçlüdür: ana dili İngilizce olan bir sesi dinler ve hemen yüksek sesle tekrar edersiniz — konuşmacıyı 1-2 saniye gecikmeyle takip eden bir gölge gibi. Pasif dinleme veya dilbilgisi alıştırmalarının aksine, gölgeleme beyninizi ve ağız kaslarınızı gerçek konuşma kalıplarını eşzamanlı olarak işlemeye ve yeniden üretmeye zorlar. Araştırmalar, telaffuz doğruluğu, tonlama, ritim, bağlı konuşma, dinleme anlama ve konuşma akıcılığını önemli ölçüde geliştirdiğini göstermektedir — bu da onu IELTS Konuşma hazırlığı ve gerçek dünya İngilizce iletişimi için en etkili yöntemlerden biri yapar.
