You have longer loops that go through the real world.

That's how a lot of science is going to be done in the future.

And that is its own form of acceleration.

You think you have robotic labs that you can scale horizontally that can run 24 hours a day.

They're not grad students pipetting things that need to take breaks and sleep and things.

And then the grad students can do things that are much more, you know, leveraging of what makes us human than pipetting things.

So...

I'm quite optimistic about where this goes and about our ability as a society to accelerate the pace of science very meaningfully.

I mean, some of that piece is robotics.

It's already happening, right?

There are

I was just giving examples of the model solving open math problems.

And there are certainly robotic labs out there already.

It's all kind of in the early adopter phase, but at the pace that we're all moving, I don't think it's long.

And it's so clearly the right thing for many fields that...

This is not, you know, we are not the only ones to have this idea.

There are a lot of people that have this idea.

There are a lot of interesting startups building things along these lines.

And, you know, the world is just moving so fast, it can't be long.

Right, right.
