You know, one of the frightening things from a computer security perspective is. AI can write code and it can be trying to write malicious code, right? That's going to accelerate too. So it's going to be this constant arms race.

If we think about cybersecurity of AI protecting and then harming in a way that's going to be interesting to see how it evolves over time too. So it's this... It is, it's an arms race is the best way to describe it, right? The good forces of good and evil. That sounds like a superhero movie, right? That are going to be in constant conflict going forward.

Oh, wow. I have to land mine. I don't think I'm going to step on it. But I'm going to step on it anyway. Carefully. It inevitably will have political implications, right? But it goes back to that social media thing too, right? And then your belief or disbelief that the government is here to help. Yeah. But I do fundamentally believe and I did some travel this week.

EHRs in their way, from an informatics perspective, have become... the arm, the long arm of the government, into clinical practice, right? Because in the United States, 50% of payment for health care is still from the government.
