That scared me a little bit.

I'll be honest.

But you see, you know, in one direction where the city was less than half a century ago.

If an entire country can handle this type of acceleration and still keep its culture,

then startup companies should be able to do the same thing.

And that's why I really think that, you know, Dubai is a metaphor for so much more than just leadership in building your country.

I agree with that.

You know, I've heard you and a lot of people in your sphere use this term future readiness.

Yes.

And again, when you're trying to, when you're accelerating at this rate and you have a vision for the future that you're trying to execute and you don't want to drag the old ideas and things from the past, you know, forward, what does this future readiness mean?

So give me an example of something that is underway that you expect to come to fruition over the next three to five years.

What would be an example of a project where your teams scan the horizon and said,

we need to be prepared for the AI revolution.

And we're going to put this team together.

And we have benchmarks and some way to measure that we're executing.

That's the one thing that made me feel at home, my friend from Miami.

The pressure washing them at night.
