We have a huge pipeline.

Actually, by the way, thanks for having me.

I'm very excited to be here.

We have a huge pipeline of researchers, engineers from Europe and also DeepMind that want to join Luma.

And also London is the gateway for the business in Europe as well as Middle East.

So it seems to be the right place to have our second office outside of Palo Alto and Bay Area.

So yeah, today is our launch of the London office.

Yeah, I think that's a great question.

So Luma already has actually a deep bench of researchers from NVIDIA, from DeepMind, from schools like MIT, Stanford, and Berkeley.

And the reason that these incredibly exceptional people actually joined Luma is because, one,

While it is a very, very well-resourced AGI lab, we're only about 150 people.

So we get to do and get to have resources per person that is unheard of in the rest of the industry, actually.

And second, Luma is so ultra-aligned on this one goal, which is to build multi-modal AGI.

There is no second project happening at Luma.

This is what we do.

people, researchers, engineers, and product people who believe strongly in this mission, Luma is the best place in the world for them to be.

Yeah, so I mean video, and video is actually the path to AGI, and let me tell you just very briefly why that is the case.

Language gives us reasoning, and language gives us the human abstraction that is necessary.

Video shows us the entire universe, right, like how things behave, how water behaves, how the laws of physics work.

When you combine them together,
