So the original thing I wanted to do was to use it as an exercise to see and maybe actually have them vote on each other's songs to see which one might be the best, whatever that might mean, but best in terms of the economics and incorporating the models in it.

And then to connect that and see whether there's any correlation between that and the prompts they use.

I didn't actually do that, but I have some semblance that mattered in terms of their final project.

I think it was better this semester.

One part of that final project is how their use of AI, they have to reflect on that and report on that.

And I think they did a better job of that this semester.

Yeah, that's right.

We are as well as businesses in the corporate world.

One of the key things for me was about a year ago, this was National Academy's consensus study, really pointing out that the

The value of AI in the future for people making high stakes decisions is going to be for people that have some expertise.
