Summary: Does AI have the cart before the horse? Zuzanna Stamirowska is CEO of Pathway, a company has just been valued at $500 million on the strength of a post-transformer architecture built on first principles that learns after deployment without all the messy baling wire and duct tape of LLMs built on transformers.
