So I actually think it's sort of both things are true.
We're democratizing it for everyday use, for YouTube creators and so on.
But on the other hand, at the high end, the people who understand these tools, and it's not everyone can get the same output out of these tools.
There's a skill in that.
as well as the vision and the storytelling and the narrative style of the top creatives.
And I think it just allows them, they really enjoy using these tools, it allows them to iterate way faster.
Yes.
Yes.
I actually foresee a world, and I think a lot about this having started in the games industry as a game designer and programmer in the 90s, is that I think the future of entertainment, this is what we're seeing is the beginning of the future of entertainment.
Maybe some new genre or new art form
and where there's a bit of co-creation.
I still think that you'll have the top creative visionaries.
They will be creating these compelling experiences and dynamic storylines, and they'll be of higher quality even if they're using the same tools than the everyday person can do.
But also, so millions of people will
potentially dive into those worlds but maybe they'll also be able to create co-create certain parts of those worlds and perhaps that you know the the the main creative uh person is almost an editor of that world so that's the kind of things i'm foreseeing in the next few years and i'd actually like to explore ourselves with with with with technologies like genie
I am.
So I also run Isomorphic, which is our spin-out company to revolutionize drug discovery, building on our AlphaFold breakthrough in protein folding.
And of course, knowing the structure of a protein
is only one step in the drug discovery process.
So isomorphic, you can think of it as building many adjacent alpha folds to help with things like designing chemical compounds that don't have any side effects, but bind to the right place on the protein.
