And I've been flying to places where I thought there would be diffusion of AI by now.

And.

They just are barely using cloud chat GPT.

I mean, these things are still alien to most of the world.

And so if we stopped capabilities today and half of us in the ecosystem vanished off the planet, nothing would change.

It's still so early.

Congrats to you guys on a generational run and I hope the acquisition does nothing but give you guys more steroids and more fuel for the fire.

We need more of you every day.

We'll talk to you soon.

Have a good one.

Thank you guys.

I think one more maybe example that comes to mind that is even more extreme than that is when I was building MenuGen.

So MenuGen is this idea where

You come to a restaurant, they give you a menu, there's no pictures usually, so I don't know what any of these things are usually, like 30% of the things I have no idea what they are, 50%.

So I wanted to take a photo of the restaurant menu and to get pictures of what those things might look like in a generic sense.

And so I built, I bytecoded this app that basically lets you upload a photo, and it does all this stuff, and it runs on Vercel, and it basically re-renders the menu, and it gives you all the items, and it gives you a picture that it uses an image generator for to basically OCR all the different titles, use the image generator to get pictures of them, and then shows it to you.

And then I saw the software 3.0 version of this, which blew my mind, which is literally just take your photo, give it to Gemini, and say, use NanoBanana to overlay the things onto the menu.

And NanoBanana basically returned an image that is exactly the picture of the menu that I took, but it actually put into the pixels, it rendered the different things in the menu.

And this blew my mind because...

Actually, all of my menu gen is spurious.
