And the technologies we use are more akin to computer electronics and hardware, right?

It's a solid state device that makes the electricity.

So even at the tens of gigawatts, we will be single digit percentages of the total supply chain that already exists to make other devices of similar nature.

So when Steve Jobs comes and shows his first smartphone, nobody says, will you build 5,000 of these or 10,000 of this next year?

It's in the millions.

And there's a supply chain that knows how to scale very fast.

That's the supply chain we're going to rely on.

And that didn't happen by accident.

The company was built to light up the planet.

That was the mission of the company.

So everything we did in the company, including our manufacturing lines, were built for one day being able to scale and scale fast.

Now we are just opening that chapter and executing to that.

It's all about execution.

And execution at that scale is not trivial, is not easy.

Just like I learned the very first time I had to build a product with Antigrow.

But I'm still here to talk about that story, which means we are good learners.

We learn how to get up when we fall.

So here's what happens, right?

If you want to build a 2 gigawatt data center, it's going to take you more than a year and a half here to build a green field.

There's an entire supply chain for that, including construction workers to supply chain parts related to that data center.
