And so, looking over the press release, look, part of this is that Core Eve has to adopt the Rubin platform, Vera CPUs, Bluefield memory.
So, NVIDIA needs proof points for other hyperscalers, for sovereign governments, for academic research institutions, that its AI factories are the one-stop shop for AI
That has to happen over the next five years.
This is why it's important for Nvidia.
Otherwise, if that wasn't in the offing, I would agree with you, Emily, that maybe they're over-investing here.
