I guess my personal story is that technology gave me everything that I have.
And now I want everyone to have that.
And for me, it's like you had to join a priesthood, right?
You had to get straight A's.
You had to get into Stanford.
Like that was like my light at the end of the tunnel.
But like my kids, like I want them to do that.
But I want them not because I want them to go into the top college.
It's because I want them to love the knowledge itself, right?
And like where we're going, I don't know if we're going to need college per se.
That was the old post-industrial, like sort of 20th century version of everything.
Like here's your lane and like go down this path and like don't ask questions.
It feels like those lanes have broken down.
But we have to come up with a new path.
Would you say you're an optimist in general?
