Tripp Adler described a pretty successful company and he's starting something new.

And he's like, you know, one of those founders where you're like, normally you'd be like, this is a really successful second time founder starting something in AI now.

And I spoke to him.

He was like, yeah, it's basically like licensing copyright rights that we find a way to protect and then get people paid.

And I was just like, this feels... It's like I'm going to stand in front of a tsunami and I'm going to hold it off.

Yeah, I was like, everything here is like hinged on government protecting IP.

And by the way, it's already too late.

Yeah.

Like, who knows?

I would argue this is the same now.

It will be worse in the future, but just lots of slop.

It's just a larger volume of stuff that gets made every day.

To Drew's point, 15 years ago, probably when Jaws, like Ableton and Fruity Loops and all these things came into existence.

Now on Spotify, when we started, there was 10,000 songs uploaded every Friday.

Now there's like 190,000 or something like that.

That's not that long.

Yeah, yeah.

And I imagine that

In a few years, it'll be a million.

And that will definitely have like an impact about how hard it is to break through or maybe the importance of having a brand or an identity or standing for something will mean something even more.
