Paul, I think, is talking about achieving outsized outcomes in relatively shorter timeframes (as the timing is just right to be investing in learning this tech) for high agency folks who can also afford the ordeal in wanting to maximize for impact & ambition. Of course, there's real risk one may get no where, but even in failure, given you were building the LLM yourself, you might end up with other adjacent, high reward opportunities.
