And part of that transition was creating an app that didn't take itself too seriously so that you didn't feel like you were in a portrait studio like a normal camera, that you felt like you were in a place you could just talk casually with your friends, which is really what Snapchat is all about.
So a lot of the design choices and the playful colors and those sorts of things are about creating a more casual atmosphere where you
feel comfortable being creative, not that you have to pose for the perfect photo.
I love that.
That's a lot actually.
Yeah.
Right?
Yeah.
That's awesome.
It's expensive to submit this.
What a great question.
So I think one of the things that actually makes me so excited about specs and our work on glasses in general is that we've been focused on it so clearly for such a long period of time that we have really compounded our technical advantages.
in so many different ways and i think it's hard to talk about it now because people haven't seen the next generation product but what i think people will realize is that it reflects our ownership of the full stack so everything from the developer tools to the rendering engine to the operating system itself to the optical engine which we have designed and built ourselves to be the highest you know most performant optical engine in the world
And then a bunch of other stuff we haven't announced yet.
All of that together means that we are going to be able to deliver a product experience that will be unmatched.
And I think that that is something that's really exciting to me and very, very hard to replicate because the technical advancements and the problems we've solved are so hard to solve.
They're such difficult problems.
And we've been focused on investing in these areas for such a long period of time.
And then when you layer on the ecosystem with the developer tools and all of this other
proprietary technology, I think it becomes something that you can't just copy paste like a software feature.
