I agree. Yeah, you have brought the other hand that I'm not going to say that I forgot. But what I would add to what you're saying, and it's way before in the skill stacking, I differentiate between calling the person and calling the professional all the time. So skill stacking, those are skills stacked for my person. Calling the person, that's where lifelong learning for me did and always will.

And so I'm very clear on what's the differentiator. Because what you can do is if you're people like us or those listening that are like us, if you brought a whole crazy idea horizon of areas that you're interested in and you've read about, studied, done whatever to build up knowledge, it can be impossible to connect all the dots and make them all skip. I love reading modern African history.

I have three shelves of books in my house that are all about the Democratic Republic of the Congo. I am never going to use that, at least not now. Oh, I got to go get that PhD in writing. Or I need to go and this thing that I've been invested in for a long time and I enjoy reading about and it is a form of learning, doesn't need to be something that I'm going to incorporate into my work life.

And I purposely keep it separate. And that's the same thing of the musical instrument that happened to be gathered in bust, unfortunately, in the back of my room. Those are also skills that I'm learning throughout my life just for my own enjoyment. And I'm totally with you on the law of the instrument, right?

If everything, if you've got a hammer and you're good at it, then it'll look like a needle. I sit on a number of groups where we support startups and tech founders and entrepreneur. And the drive to just leap to the solution, because I think I can sell a widget to somebody rather than understanding to your point, like, is this actually a problem or is this set over something else?

It just drives me nuts. And so we're just going to end up with now the toolkit is going to have 7,000 tools, 6,800 of which I don't know how to use, and 50 that are actually useful for me to figure out any kind of a dilemma that I'm approaching. I think, yeah, I think you've done a good job of reminding me that Maybe the lifelong learning thing should be just for life.

And the guilt that should be where we focus on potentially getting the right kind of multi-skilled person who, to your point, doesn't just look down and build a tool, but is able to interact with others, is able to be empathetic, show emotional intelligence, all those kind of things.

And I think maybe sometimes get sharp to the side over the let's build the technical experience and skill ourselves up with. Now I know not just C++, but I also know all of these other JavaScript and other kind of software so I can build my own AI model. Let's go, right?

That's a fantastic and a fascinating comment. I'm starting now, because I'm not a very quiet person, often to my detriment, but I'm starting now to get people asking, Hey, I see you're doing this stuff in particularly generative AI. I'm very clear that I'm not a person. I don't build these things. I don't know the computer science behind it. I'm purely a practitioner of the tools.

I get people asking a lot, Hey, could you do a short little LinkedIn learning course for 30 minutes on, or do you have any of the top 10 degenerative AI tools or anything of this? I'm all for it. I think it's a good idea. But what I often find too is the people that are asking me or those that are very early on in their technical journey of learning.
