I think it matters a lot to understand the kernel of AI in the past 10 years. It's the only way you can truly appreciate the exponential. It looks flat unless you see the dramatic leap in transformer architecture and scaling laws and reinforcement learning. I know it's been hyped to death but you have to see how those things are truly exponential at their core to appreciate how it's not just walking up one step or two steps faster and how it's walking up buildings etc.
