And I'll grant you, there is something nostalgic about those paintings, and I love them.
But I live a more comfortable life today than I would have 200 years ago.
With AI, I don't know the specifics of how it's going to turn out.
I know there's a lot of concern about job losses.
There's an analogy I've been using that I find really quite pertinent.
If we go back 30 years ago, mid-1990s, digital technology was really just getting started.
Think about the Internet.
Think about data storage.
There used to be companies, Ryan, this may be before your time, I'm not quite sure how old you are, you don't have to say, but there was this company called EMC.
which its business was selling data storage, which is hilariously quaint today, which, you know, an iPhone can store all the data needed to launch an Apollo mission today.
But that data was scarce back then and fiber optics were being laid so all this data could be transmitted efficiently.
What this meant
is that trading on the New York Stock Exchange changed dramatically.
It was revolutionized.
And whereas 30 years ago, there were 5,500 people on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, today there's about 300 people.
And I know this because I go do CNBC shows down there about twice a week, and so I see it.
It's a ghost town.
Now, one might think, well, this is terribly tragic.
All those jobs were lost.
Then think not just about the New York Stock Exchange, but the same thing happened at the American Stock Exchange and at the Chicago Board of Options, et cetera, et cetera.
