One of the things that we're also seeing, and it's related to this, is like the compute constraints that have long been talked about as theoretical are starting to actually bite people who are sort of like anthropic users or like whatever.
Like, can you talk a little bit about token consumption and is the compute constraint real from your perspective?
If you could snap your fingers and get 100,000 more plugged in GPUs, would that be a big help right now?
In the future, this is, I guess, more from just an investment standpoint, but like what is the investor's source of edge in the future?
