Eric Schmidt

I have been shocked at how fast these systems are.

As an aside, my background is enterprise software.

And nowadays, there's a model protocol from Anthropic.

You can actually connect the model directly into the databases without any of the connectors.

I know this sounds nerdy.

There's a whole industry there that goes away because you have all this flexibility now.

You can just say what you want, and it just produces it.

That's an example of a real change in business.

There are so many of these things coming every day.

Ladies and gentlemen, Eric Schmidt.

Thank you very much.

Thank you very much.

Thank you.

Thank you, guys.

When you look at some of the biggest ideas that have created some of the biggest businesses and industry in the last two decades, it's cloud services. 15 years ago, 20 years ago, if you would have said, here's my idea, I'm going to go to every company in the world. And you know, your IT budget that you're buying these metal boxes and these software things that you buy. Yeah. Forget it.

Just give it to one company or maybe two companies, throw away all your computers and they'll do everything in the cloud for you. People would have said, you're nuts. That's a crazy idea. It took a tiny little player, someone that was nothing in the business to business world, a company that was known for selling diapers online, which was called Amazon at the time.

It was basically a mail order catalog that was splashed onto the internet. And they said, what if we try this crazy thing? Everybody wrote the idea off as crazy.
