You know, they realize there's a problem around them.

Maybe, you know, I see all my friends trying to start companies, but brands are really hard to build.

So let me automate that.

So just like look around you in the world and just see what are the problems that people are dealing with that are willing to pay for it.

And it's so easy to try things.

Because it's so easy and cheap to try things, you can iterate really quickly and arrive at an idea.

I think it's the easiest time to get rich online.

I think it's the easiest time to get rich in the history of capitalism, but certainly in the history of internet.

Month over month is improving.

I will say at this point, we have an automated software engineer that is as good as a mid-level software engineer.

It would get a job at Facebook or Google.

Like it is really good.

Like you don't have to look at the code at all.

Actually, you know, initially Repl.it started as like, let's make coding easier.

So they're still coding in the interface.

Increasingly, it was just removing the coding features because you don't need to code anymore.

Actually, even professional software engineers are not coding anymore.

So code is almost fully automated.

I mean, it depends on the specialty and the language and there's some nuance to it.

But for the most part, people are not coding anymore.
