But they're experiencing their training data, their pseudo-randomness source, and your prompts?
Like, to put it in perspective. Suppose you're training a multimodal model. Training data on the terabyte scale. Training time on the weeks scale. Let's be optimistic and assume 10 TB in just a week: that is 16.5 MB/s of avg throughput.
Compare this to the human experience. VR headsets are aiming for what these days, 4K@120 per eye? 12 GB/s at SDR, and that's just vision.
We're so far from "realtime" with that optimistic 16.5 MB/s, it's not even funny. Of course the experiencing and understanding that results from this will be vastly different. It's a borderline miracle it's any human-aligned. Well, if we ignore lossy compression and aggressive image and video resizing, that is.
