So I had this moment on like 30th of December into last year going, oh, wow.
Because it's not a company that I personally have any kind of real commitment to.
And then two weeks ago, the Chinese government has said to Meta, oh, no, no, no, no, you've got to wind that deal back.
It's coming back to China.
And so this is this weird little play out that most people have no idea about that's going on.
And if you take the top 100 AI companies in the world...
really the majority of them are not companies that we know.
They are brands we've never heard of because they're in other languages and different, you know, and they're actually popping up and they're localised and they're mobile and they're, you know, they might be in Vietnam or the Philippines or Nigeria and places.
So we do have this very kind of weird US-centric view of AI and adoption.
It's just that's where the money is flowing and it's literally, you know, we're developing these trillion-dollar companies and when you say we, we're feeding into these trillion-dollar companies
who are giving us these highly subsidized tools that we're all lapping up and going, this is pretty amazing.
And the balance of this power is all going to come to a kind of a grinding halt in the next little while, either because they run out of energy or the data centers become too expensive or the water issue becomes an issue or money starts to disappear or the cost of actually using inference or processing of tokens, as it's called,
Yeah.
I'm like, stop, stop processing.
You're not doing this the right way.
Go back to the beginning.
Literally, I'm talking like I get really annoyed and I'm watching it turning through tokens.
I'm like, this is a really straightforward job.
Stop, stop it.
You're doing it.
