It's critical.
And like I said, in my view, it's synonymous with freedom.
And it's definitely not something we want to suppress.
Now, just back to the closed ecosystem for a second.
It's true we have five major competitors there, and they're all spending a lot of money.
I do worry a little bit that at some point in time that the market consolidates and we end up with, you know,
like a monopoly or duopoly or something like that, as we've seen in other technology markets.
We saw this with search and, you know, and so on down the line.
And I just think that it would be good if this market stayed more competitive than just one or two winners.
And I don't,
I don't really know what to do about that.
I'm just making that observation.
I do think that having open source as an option always then ensures that even if the market does consolidate, that you do have an alternative.
And it's an alternative that's more fully within your control as opposed to a large corporation or the deep state working with that corporation as we saw in the Twitter files that the deep state was working with.
all these social media companies and implementing much more widespread censorship than I think any of us thought possible.
So we've seen evidence in the past and again in the social networking space about how the government could get involved in nefarious ways.
And it would be good to have alternatives to make it less likely that that scenario comes about with AI.
yeah that's really good to hear i mean i think you know if we assess kind of the the state of the ai race um vis-a-vis china uh this is the only area where we appear to be behind is in this area of open source models um yeah i think you know if you don't care whether it's open or closed i think we have the lead uh i think our top models uh model companies are ahead of the top chinese companies although they're quite good but uh but just this narrow area of open source seems to be where they have an advantage so it's great to hear that you guys are seeing
you know, a lot more, um, efforts, um, coming to market.
Yeah.
