AI is dramatically accelerating AI research

There's still a lot of effort required to move something from "good idea, loads to do" to "really finished and really works and I've proved it".

But its a lot less effort that when we didn't have LLM's.

Interestingly it does seem that it's still enough effort to prevent most folks from making that step though.

Yes! I think that what's happened is that the initial prototype takes a LOT less time, while the polish takes less time but still a significant amount.
