Spoiler - What "Hasn't Happened Since Before The Depression"?
Gemini:
The phenomenon Cathie Wood is referring to that hasn't happened since before the Depression is a persistently inverted yield curve (12:15-13:00).
During the era leading up to the Great Depression, the yield curve was inverted more than 60% of the time, meaning long-term interest rates were lower than short-term rates (13:46-14:05). This contrasts with the post-Depression and post-Fed era, where the yield curve has generally maintained a positive slope, only inverting during periods immediately preceding a recession (13:02-13:20).
Wood suggests that this inversion may be becoming "normal" again, similar to the industrial revolution era, because new, deflationary technological advancements (like the five innovation platforms: AI, robotics, energy storage, blockchain, and multiomics) are putting downward pressure on long-term inflation expectations, while short-term rates reflect real economic growth (14:00-14:40).
hahaa I had the same problem! And I was doing everything out of the ChatGPT chat in a single html file rather than utilizing an IDE or CLI it was so painful! Every fix would break something else...
I remember how hard it was to get the gorilla arms in the right axis and fix the size of the head/torso etc. Now you can just say "the physics of X is off" and it will fix it so quickly. :/
Insane progress in just a year, I thought I had been vibe coding longer than this...
Just saw a twitter thread with similar sentiment about AI music having no soul...
Unfortunately if you flood the market with pretty-decent slop, the price of Soul drops precipitously...
I simultaneously had Grok 4.6 (high) make a version for comparison. It's also pretty damn good but not as polished. Like Astra, it took one prompt to get 99% then 3-4 cosmetic prompts to fix some basic physics issues.
$2 T sounded realistic 5 months ago but today sounds like a lot given how far ahead OpenAI just jumped with Astra. Their models are so expensive and people seem very willing to jump ship to whatever model provides the best bang/buck. Especially when their models refuse to do things you ask.
I just had my grok bot try to negotiate my ATT fiber bill by collecting cable and other offers in my area. Unfortunately they wouldn't budge on any discount unless I upgraded my plan lol. I tried this a year ago manually and failed those ATT CSR are hardline bastards haha
partly it turned into a meme...
haven't looked at video games in some time.. this quality looks quite insane sheesh!
...
edit: just asked google when each version was released... didn't realize it's been 13 years!

in retrospect it would have been nice if we had coordinated our attack several months earlier before Iran executed all of the protestors...
Yeah I think there are some pockets in the US as well with similar behavior- small towns in Utah etc and ski resorts where people leave their snowboards out.
It just feels like it's impossible to return to this once it's gone...
I was using replit! I still do, actually. But it was getting super expensive using whatever agent they had with markup, so I eventually started using CLI within the replit shell. So my agent costs are pretty much free (using my other subscriptions).
