They're building new airplanes too.

And they're the best aerodynamicists in the world.

When you had a new idea and you wanted to iterate, it used to take three months, six months, right?

Because that's just how long it takes to do these things and do the work and program it and test it out.

Thanks to AI, you can do all that in an afternoon now.

So every afternoon, the best guys in the world are doing like three to six months of work.

And so here's the thing that people don't realize about AI.

It's like we're living like multiple, multiple years in one in terms of progress.

So we're taking like the 2020s and the 2030s and the 2040s, and we're condensing it into the next few years.

And I mean, the breakthroughs we have just on the airplane side, you know, airplanes were basically stuck for 60 years, right?

No one believed anything would happen.

You're going to start having like way more efficient, way better airplanes coming out in the next few years, thanks to AI.

And it's going to be like a shocker where everyone's like, what the heck?

These guys actually have hydrogen fuel cells working now.

No one's ever got them working on planes.

So hydrogen fuel cells, three times more efficient per weight, two times more efficient per conversion energy.

So it's six times more efficient for flying as a fuel in the air, which is pretty amazing.

And then you have the new shapes of airplanes, new designs of airplanes that we've thought about for years, never really been able to test.

And the new designs are multiple times more efficient too.

You do the multiplication, six times...
