What's your kind of view on the conversation we're having as a society about this new technology?

You know, it's interesting.

And, you know, I talked to him about this and said, hey, how much are you guys actually laying off people?

Because you're obviously, you know, you're at the edge of the new models.

Right.

Plus you have all the TPUs, so presumably they have all the tokens that they want and need internally.

And he said, look, we actually haven't laid off anyone.

We're just ripping through our backlog.

So we're doing like 100x more than we ever did before.

So it's interesting the kind of point, a lot of people have made this point on like, hey, where are all the jobs going to be?
