N+1. This is my experience and for the most part the people that I work with share the same feeling.

A highly enthusiastic concussion enthusiast with 10 hands is how one person put it.

These are people in different fields but highly accomplished so I’m feeling comfortable sharing their assessment.

You're talking quite statically though. I don't think anyone is worried about today's models being a serious threat, but next year's, three years' time? Just three years' ago these models were useful bumbling fools and it's hard to judge where on the S-curve we currently are.

I'd rather be thinking about these issues in advance rather than waiting until the problem becomes real.

Fable is essentially bricked for my areas of interest (even being a member of the cybersecurity program). It seems like they’re attempting to sell regulatory capture under the guise of safety. That’s more of the point.

The models are still useful bumbling fools. We're in the flat part of the curve because we've exhausted existing data sources.
