Investor Pushes Back on Gary Marcus: Latest Models Now Handle End-to-End Video Editing
valleyinvesting · x · 2026-10-28
An investor publicly challenges Gary Marcus's long-running skepticism of LLMs, saying he has been "not correct on any level." Citing hands-on results with the newest models — end-to-end video editing and fully modeled, rendered complex Blender scenes that seemed impossible months ago — he asks how these can be "stochastic parrots."
He also defends OpenAI's S-1 filing: 10x'd ARR, profitable on most common metrics, extremely well capitalized and efficient. Marcus responds that "stochastic parrots" isn't his term, his S-1 criticisms were already shared, and his core claim was that LLMs wouldn't work without adding symbols — which "everybody" now does.
