They would be foolish not to do that, and we would be foolish to assume that they aren't.
So that is absolutely happening.
There have been known cases of that happening.
So you have to be very careful about it.
The other thing that I'd say today, though, is that, to be honest, we're so far behind in nuclear that China doesn't care to steal anything from us, right?
They're so far ahead of us.
They've built advanced reactors.
We've never built an advanced reactor on American soil.
We've never split an atom in an advanced reactor on American soil.
And China has in three now, I believe.
And so this is going to be a concern.
And we're thinking about how to address this threat over the next few years as we begin to pull ahead of China.
But to be honest, where it stands today, they're just ahead of us.
They don't care to steal.
They view what we're building as toys, essentially, right now, that they're past, which is a very sad place to be.
And that's why we have this urgency of the moment.
I would say we have a window to catch up.
And the reason we have a window to catch up is because American entrepreneurs are the most innovative people on earth.
We genuinely are.
We're incredible at building innovative technology using first principles thinking and incredible engineers and building something that's never existed before.
