And as I'm dropping her off and driving back, I just had this profound feeling of the person she wanted me to be was not the person she needed me to be.

The AI is not going to go do that, right?

I think that's the idea, which is like, how could you use the power?

Again, this is where I do take this from, like, I understand how the world works.

It's why I'm trying to do this via a VC-backed company, because I understand the power of capitalism.

But what if we could put the power of capitalism to create a different type of technology that allows us to choose our value set?

And yes, it might be, I mean, almost certainly it is harder than the set path.

But I think that's what, for me, gives us this long-term optimism because it is not inevitable.

This technology is not inevitable.

There's no value judgment innate in the technology, except for the people who are making the choices against which value sets.

And I think, again, this is a conversation you and I have had, which is like, for me, the issue is the presumption of values on behalf of everyone.

There is a lot of stuff that goes into that, like the snacks and like thinking about the kids eating, like what would they enjoy and all that stuff.

But if you take a look at that soccer email that comes in,

And the 20 families that then have to transcribe that into a calendar.

That, like, you know, we don't need a human to be doing that like 20 times over, right?

So where do we look at like the work and are able to support it in a way and honor the work?

I think that's the biggest question.
