And by the way, I mean, all this culminated in the past week with OpenAI moving, you know, are talking again about open weighted models, which is a, I think, a really important data point. So how did how do we get from where we were to where we are? So. Yeah, I read that same tweet, and I think it was remarkably misplaced.

If you look on most of the major open source products and look at the management page and who the sponsors are for these, like Linux, you'll see many of the major Chinese companies have been there and been supporting it for a while. Why? They've been accused of stealing tech IP for years. And so when something like open source comes along, this looks like the best thing possible, right?

There's no one that can accuse us of IP theft because there is no IP ownership in an open source world. And so having dealt with those accusations for probably 40 or 50 years, I think everyone in China, the government and the entrepreneurs writ large, view open source as a very positive movement for their country relative to the West. And so they've been in on it for a long time.
