And we're only AI founders. And then, of course, it was a lovely dinner. It was a fantastic opportunity for us. But essentially, they were making it very attractive for us to move our AI talent over. But we are in the UK here. But the next day, there was a similar event from someone from the British government. And maybe two weeks ago, there was a conference in Berlin. And same, same.

UAE and Saudi Arabia. So people are really fighting for this talent. They've understood how vital it is. And I mean, you go in a different country fighting for talent. That to me is Cold War. And I think it's very interesting.
