The Internet: A Market for Intelligence | Andrew Trask | 🟡🔴🔵 MTS Live
Andrew Trask joins MTS to discuss how model fusion and automatic routing are shifting the AI industry from holistic products to a free market for intelligence.
He explains the expiration dates of public benchmarks, the role of encrypted inference in creating secure evaluations, and how data owners can safely monetize their information without losing control. Finally, he addresses the future of local client models and how individuals will bring value to a post-AI economy through specialized knowledge, taste, and trust networks.
