And I think the the thing that that by calling it American dynamism and by talking about how important it is to be building in the physical world, I think we kind of captured a few things that are really important to every nation state.
One is, you know, we always point to the fact that 25 years ago, if you looked at the market cap.
Um, of the largest ten companies in the world, twenty-five years ago, uh, three of the top ten were American tech companies.
Now that is nine of the top ten twenty-five years later.
So Silicon Valley has truly, I think, transformed with software.
um, you know, the the the size and scale of how large you can build these companies.
Many of the companies that are now in the top ten in terms of of market cap didn't even exist in 2000.
Um so I think that's something where other nations look at what Silicon Valley can build, whether it's hardware, software, whether it's, you know, companies that are building the physical world and say, we want to bring this to our own country.
How do we do that?
And the spirit of American dynamism is recognizing that it's not just uh, you know, an economic zone and a silo.
It's not just um pure software.
Like the companies that are that are really having the impact of that scale are building the physical world and they're interfacing with governments, not only in the US, but they're interfacing with governments around the world.
And in order to build, you know, many, many more of those companies, um, we we have to have sort of a game plan of how of how you interface with with regulators, with governments, um, and with the international community.
Well, yeah.
I mean I thought the the conversation that that you all had in the last episode with with Brian and Chris about what does it mean to to participate in wars of mass is one that Silicon Valley really hadn't thought about uh until very recently.
Um, you know, s i i i if if you go to Washington, there's all this talk now about what is what is known as a tridable systems, which are systems where, you know, you're not spending millions and millions of dollars
Building out exquisite systems that that only are are usable once.
You're you're building out, you know, very cheap drones, very cheap hardware, where if you lose them, that's okay.
And because the and the reason why that is so important um is because I think a lot of the the learnings of Ukraine, um if you have an exquisite system that was hundreds of millions of dollars and it can be taken out with a thousand dollar drone, uh that changes the economics of war.
And it particularly changes the the economics of a war
