Right.
It's like, all right, you're betting on an entrepreneur first and foremost.
And you want to know that this entrepreneur, as I like to say, can materialize labor capital and customers.
And you can't just like, you know, run an algorithm on, I mean, maybe you can, but there's just not a lot of data out there.
It's very, very hard to do.

But I guess, what do you think the world of venture capital looks like kind of today?
We've obviously done a lot of things internally as a firm to try to embrace AI.
like, very, very fully.
But, you know, now, five years, ten years from now, just given what's potentially going to happen to white-collar work.
Yeah, well, it's kind of a good, it's a good follow-up or a good parallel question, which is like, how do we make this seem less scary?

I mean, 98% of Americans were farmers in 1789.
I'm pretty sure they're not farmers right now.
I mean, you made this interesting point where if you go to like a third or fourth world, if there is a such thing in country, everybody's an entrepreneur.
100%, like the guy, like I sell bananas by buying them here and selling them there.
Everybody's an entrepreneur.
There are no organized companies.
And the cool thing is that now 8 billion people that might have an idea in their head can get it out of their head and maybe it's a bad idea.
