We were just developing artificial intelligence. Specifically, creative AI.

I wasn't quite on Scratch's level of thinking outside the box, for something the rest of the team could wrap their heads around. [20:07] His ideas were often so bizarre and abstract how to work in his language, [sighs] the tumor in his head. [20:23] What was it? Was there anything specific you needed to know?
