It's an ethical thing to do that we're helping the very worst off and that we're investing a lot more in them. But you're also sacrificing your future and you're not building a great future for 50 years from now if you're not also accelerating the very top very aggressively, which is something we've stopped doing in a lot of parts of our country.

Because these really brightest kids, by being able to pick them out and then push them further ahead, they do create the future and giving them an edge. It's not that it's inequity. It's that I want there to be like 100,000 extra super genius kids getting pushed way ahead. They're going to make our future. They're going to cure diseases.

When I'm an old man, they're going to figure out how to make me live 10 years longer and much healthier. They're going to do all sorts of other wonderful things for everyone, right? So it's like you kind of want both.

That's a great dialectic. Like how do you do perfection and how do you do not procrastinating and taking too long? And it's tough. Dialectics are hard because there's no perfect answer, but you have to play with both extremes.

This is such a key thing to push education forward this way. And the only reason it's not happening at greater scale is because there's no market mechanism right now of competition in education.
