An incredible initiative - Riskgaming ‼️ led by Danny Crichton

I don’t think everyone has comprehended the massive disruption and distortion that is going to happen in the Gen AI market due to Llama3. Moats will be destroyed and investments will go to zero.

Just like everything in Gen AI, this will all happen fast.
