       | Rather than doing self-supervised learning on the actual video
       | frames, why not do it on the byte sequence that represents the
       | video file?

       | my hypothesis:
       | 
       | using a video captured as 3D is going to vastly improve the
       | learning of representations--with the additional benefit of depth
       | perception that allows humans/neural nets to predict how their
       | projections onto a 2D plane are supposed to look like as they
       | move
       | 
       | say the videos are captured using a pair of identical cameras on
       | a phone -- which I have been waiting for a while to see as a
       | feature on flagship phones and mass adopted
       | 
       | such mass adoption would ensure there is vast amounts of traing
       | data from all kinds of situations to learn everything about the
       | visual world and its physics
       | 
       | now pair it with other sensors like audio, temperature, weather,
       | chemicals, etc.
       | 
       | the model can learn to associate a boom with a flying jet, rumble
       | with dark rolling clouds, and petrichor with rain on hot sand
       | 
       | we can slowly start to model more and more of human experience in
       | a single model as computing power grows
