I think Spotify is managing costs and they're also trying to learn what kind of prompts are creating like the highest satisfaction.

Right.

I think if people are doing 20 to 30, they're probably not getting what they want, since I probably would need like four different playlists and I could be happy for life.

But maybe that's just me.

All right, let's talk about what Particle is doing.

So they are an AI news app.

They're built by the former some former Twitter engineers.

They're now treating podcasts kind of like a first class news source, not a separate medium that you go to.

And I think this is this is interesting, right?

They have a new feature, which is called podcast clips, and it basically finds interesting moments inside of podcasts.

And it puts those clips alongside related news stories in their news feed.

And I think basically what they're saying is that you shouldn't have to listen to an entire hour long episode just to find 45 seconds that actually matter.

I actually I think this is really cool as someone that creates obviously a lot of podcast content.

I host a lot of podcasts.

I listen to a lot of podcasts.

I think this is awesome.

There's certain podcasts I listen to every week, for example, and they're like one or two hours long.

And sometimes I just don't have the time to catch up, but it would be sweet to just be able to go and say like, hey, give me like the five top things happened that, you know, the top moments, the things that were said.

And some of those podcasts really do break news or give you insights that you can't get anywhere else because of people working on, you know, businesses or inside of organizations.

So like there's really good, juicy data in there, valuable stuff.
