But to imply that sort of building a widely used consumer experience is somehow contrary to delivering value of AGI, I don't buy because how else are you going to deliver it? And there could be different answers, by the way. But you really want to ensure that once these technologies exist, that it's broadly available to everyone in the world, obviously, and responsible in a safe way.

And so I think it's really great that a lot of these research labs have found a form factor that resonates with so many people.

I think these issues are complex, to be honest with you, Harry. I mean, I don't think it's, you know, you could describe it, you know, as a enterprise team. You could also say you're trying to take the value of these models and ensure that they benefit humanity. Do you want every product that benefits humanity to be built exclusively by OpenAI?

And so enabling developers to build on top of it is a meaningful part of distributing the value to the world. So I don't want to minimize the complexity of all of these decisions, but I also think that as you think about delivering the the value of these models in a way that maximizes their benefit.

It doesn't seem that far off, you know, and it's, and I'm, and it's also, you know, what a lot of other research labs are doing for, I think, similar reasons with similar missions. So I think it's, I'm excited about the impact that it's having.

You know, I, I ended up so many of the entrepreneurs I know who are working in AI do it in large part because of how inspired they were by using these models as consumers using the APIs. And I think it's having a super positive impact on the world right now.

Certainly some knowledge is. I also think that there is a right now a lot of these companies are pursuing a mission that's bigger than any one organization. And so, you know, a lot of these the folks working on AGI are. are in or come from academia where the ethos is to publish, which has obviously shifted, you know, a bit over the past few years. So it's a very complex question right now.

I think the breakthrough ideas sort of like, I don't know the story actually, but, you know, the Wright brothers invented the plane. Apparently there was another group of, you know, I actually don't know who it was, like came close as well. And they were the ones who hit it. I think there's also this dynamic where these ideas are sort of in the air, you know, between different researchers as well.
