But I think that the, the other thing I'd say is that AI moves quickly, but humans move slowly and we adapt slowly.
And so what I expect to happen is just like any technology diffusion,
Like, the promise and then the application takes time to roll out.
And so I think that I'm not even too worried about autonomous cars defining away all the taxi drivers.
Remember, autonomy was supposed to be solved by 2020.
Yeah, boy, do I remember.
And so, like, I think that on the one hand, we can see amazing progress.
But on the other hand, we can see that, you know, the reality is a little bit more complicated.
And it may take longer to roll out than you might expect.
Yeah.
Well, and there I think it depends on are you an optimist or a pessimist or a masochist.
Just to clarify, optimist about human civilization.
And so I look at that as saying, okay, cool, well, yeah, I do.
And so some people say, oh, my God, is it going to destroy us all?
How do we prevent that?
I kind of look at it from a, is it going to unlock us all?
You talk about coding.
Is it going to make so I don't have to do all the repetitive stuff?
Well, suddenly that's a very optimistic way to look at it, and you look at what a lot of these technologies have done to improve our lives, and I want that to go faster.
Yeah, yeah.
