Maybe I used it on the wrong thing.

Yes, exactly.

Well, certainly, you know, in the past, with every new revolutionary technology, there's been a lot of jobs disruption.

So that's for sure.

And I think that's definitely happened.

So a lot of old jobs, you know, go away or not viable anymore.

But then actually, the history of it is that a whole set of new jobs arrive that maybe one can't even imagine before.

And those are higher quality, higher paying.

So that's the normal course.

Of course, you have to be very careful to say this time is different.

And I guess that's what people like Mark are claiming is like, you know, it's the same as the last sort of, you know, 10 massive breakthroughs like the internet, mobile and so on.

I do think this is going to be bigger than all of those previous breakthroughs, technological breakthroughs.

I mean, I sometimes quantify like AGI, the coming of AGI is like 10 times the industrial revolution at 10 times the speed.

So unfolding over a decade instead of a century.

I've been reading a lot about the Industrial Revolution.

There's a lot of great books about it.

That caused a huge amount of upheaval, as well as a lot of advances.

I mean, we wouldn't have modern medicine today.

Child mortality was at 40% back pre-Industrial Revolution.

So you wouldn't want it not to have happened.
