I wish I had an easy answer for you, but I definitely don't think it's sustainable. Even if I also think for the individual, we got to do better as well. It's September.

Yes. As recently as last week, I had a conversation with David at The Verge, and he gave me, you know, I thought we were doing a good job of citations. He read me the right act on the fact that we weren't. And in the app today, we have citations even more prominently than I thought was the most prominent app out there that shows what we read. Put them at the top. You can click them easily.

We're also having a bunch of conversations with media companies right now. Like at the end of the day, I think media companies need to get paid and publishers need to get paid. And I think the truth is, as you know, the scale of that will not mean that it works for everybody, but we are trying our best behind the scenes and out front to be better here.

Candidly, one of the challenges we have is we don't have the scale of other players in the space. So if we show up at... a media company's website and say, hey, let's figure something out here. Let's figure out how we can pay you. We don't always get the same receptivity as what I assume other companies do. But I'm curious what you think about the open AI model for this.

Because we're kind of seeing this all from afar. But yeah, I think what I come back to is, I've been on the board of Patreon for five years, and I think you know better than anyone. I don't think the old model was working for anyone, even before all this AI stuff. I think you make a great point that accelerates it and it hurts it, but I think the old model wasn't working.

And what I do think this new technology provides is a way for all of us to rethink everything from the products themselves, the media products, the software products, all the way to the business models. And I'm curious for Vox how you've thought about that and how you think about it in the context of OpenAI and these publishers that are doing that.

The other thing, too, is we talk about the web or publishing like it's one big category. But, you know, for example, if you go to a local restaurant in my new neighborhood and they have a reservation booking tool, I'm sure they are totally fine with the idea that an AI system might come around and make a reservation more easily for people. Right. So that one's easy.
