I really think AI has the potential to have an enormously, enormously positive impact in just a huge multiplier effect on the U.S.

economy in the long run.

I mean, God, if you're running, especially a big company, you, you cannot afford to turn your back on this technology.

I mean, here's the thing.

I think that I've called AI, AI,

really disruptive disaggregator.

And what I mean by that is that AI is decentralizing the economy in a way that we are probably never gonna experience because what it's doing is it's empowering your average person to actually do the work of,

a relatively large corporation now.

You can have a small team of people who, if they're adept at using AI, they can operate like a really big team.

I mean, I'll use my business as a great example where last year I was planning to hire multiple CFPs and probably a tech person.

And

All of a sudden, I start getting really adept at AI, and I start realizing, holy cow, I can write software.

If I have a financial planning question now, maybe I know 80% of the right things to actually tackle, but that last 20% made my answer wrong.

I know the answer to that last 20% now, where maybe I'm not a CFP, but I'm as dangerous as a CFP now because I know I'm experienced enough to operate like a CFP.

And I know the right questions to ask to get me to that 100%.

And I can prompt an AI to get me to the right place and give a client the right answer.

And so I'm suddenly able to operate

as a multi-person financial planning team, where you look at, especially entities like, gosh, law firms or big consulting firms.

I think that it's interesting that Mark points out shareholders.

I don't think the owners are the people who are at risk here.
