AI is grown, not built, and like with anything you grow, you'll never be able to predict exactly how it will turn out.

I can't predict the outcome of an RNG but that doesn't mean it grows the numbers.

Remember when the frontier labs found out that curated high-quality training was critical to making better models?

Basically, just like high-quality and more education tends to make better humans, on average, I think we can expect quality education to turn out better ai, on average, and with better repeatability than with humans because of better control over the initial conditions and environment.

Except in this care we actually understand and know how these models work. They aren't some unknown construct of the universe. They are human made with particular goals in mind.

There is no mysticism behind the curtains, just computer science + math.
