Our Reading
The announcement sounds ambitious.
XAi thinks we need a 45-minute presentation to understand its research and development progress. Because, you know, we’re all just dying to know the intricacies of AI research. The company is finally letting us in on its secrets, but only after a lengthy presentation that’s sure to put even the most dedicated viewers to sleep.
And, of course, XAi is doing this because it’s a “rare step” for the company. Because, you know, transparency is hard and only the brave and innovative companies do it.
This is just another example of the tech industry’s love for grandiose announcements and over-the-top marketing. But hey, at least we get to see a 45-minute presentation to really get to the heart of what XAi is working on.
XAi is rebranding its research as “progress” and calling it a “presentation” to make it sound more exciting. But let’s be real, it’s just a bunch of slides.
Original Observation: This is just another example of a company trying to make its research sound more exciting by wrapping it in a fancy presentation and calling it a “rare step”.
