So yeah, it was a little softer.

It was basically just ads shouldn't be a part of your AI assistant conversation.

That's the position that I think both Anthropic and OpenAI agree with.

That's not where the ads are going to be occurring.

But anyway, there's a whole bunch of other AI companies.

Meta had multiple 30-second ads for Oakley's sporty AI application.

So the Oakley, I keep wanting to say meta Ray-Bans because that was the term of art that came about with the meta glasses.

But there's meta Oakleys as well, which the ads kind of portrayed as being something that you could really use if you're an extreme sports person or, you know, just riding a bike with your family.

Okay, just a quick aside for those of you who are watching and normally are participating in the chat stream over here on YouTube.

I don't see that stream.

Anyway, so there's something popping up on my screen that says that they're having trouble streaming to LinkedIn, but I don't understand why that would make a difference.

Anyway.

I don't know if you guys can chat with us or not.

Anyway, going on.

So I mentioned Google Gemini had multiple ads.

Amazon did ads for Alexa Plus.

their new and improved Alexa.

GenSpark had an ad.

I was pleased to see that.

And so GenSpark got a little bit of visibility to the general public there.
