The 2024 report

Model competition and multimodal tools.

In October 2024, the AI Explained presenter selects highlights from the State of AI Report and adds his own analysis and predictions. This is a historical account: reported projections and future forecasts should not be read as current facts.

He discusses competition among frontier models and the release of OpenAI’s o1, alongside reported projections for training costs. The spending figures are forecasts reported at the time, not verified final costs.

The video surveys emerging video-generation demonstrations and consumer tools, distinguishing a company demo from a product the presenter could try himself.

02

Science and compute

Research examples and infrastructure.

The presenter notes the 2024 Nobel prizes involving neural-network research and protein-structure prediction, then discusses warnings voiced by researchers about advanced AI. Those warnings are views about potential future risks.

He highlights BrainLM research on brain activity and Chai-1 for molecular structure prediction. These are research examples; predictive results or simulations do not establish a clinical diagnosis or treatment.

He discusses computing infrastructure, chip generations and his expectation of continued scaling. His projections about future acceleration are speculative and depend on hardware, economics and deployment.

03

Economics and environment

Prices, data and energy.

On model prices, he cautions against comparing a cheaper model with a more capable one as if they were identical. He cites historical price reductions for particular offerings; prices and model capabilities change.

The discussion turns to training data, copyright and proposals to compensate creators. The presenter offers views on incentives and attribution rather than resolving the legal questions.

He considers both AI’s potential environmental applications and the energy demands of data centers. Claims that future AI will solve climate change are presented as speculation, not an established outcome.

04

Safety and predictions

Misuse and forecasts.

The report’s safety material covers jailbreaks and documented misuse, including impersonation and non-consensual imagery. The presenter emphasizes that actual harms and future risks both deserve attention.

Finally he critiques vague wording in some report predictions and makes his own forecasts for the following year. These predictions describe his 2024 expectations; the video does not verify their subsequent outcomes.
