Because we have turned this into a kind of like US versus China.

Somebody has to win.

And the more we know about what people want out of it, the more I feel a little bit calmer in some cases and less calm in others.

And so if you're an ordinary person trying to figure out how worried should I be, don't look at the tech.

It's a much easier, more reliable way to understand where the risks are.

That's a great question.

I would want them to understand that the technology can help them do their job a lot better and serve their citizens and customers a lot better.

And I'd want them to understand that you can't find the two most diligent, caring, obnoxious, hard-ass people in your organization and make it their job to implement and to implement it carefully and

implement with outcomes, understand that they're just, the number one thing, I interviewed 70, 80 people for this book.
