So kind of along those lines, you put out this letter, I think it was the end of last year where you described this coming year as the crucible moment for Snap.

It's so interesting, just like you guys have a billion monthly active users.

That's just absurd.

I don't think people realize this.

You're making 6 billion a year in revenue, something like that.

One of the very few social networks that lasts, that is durable with like a very valuable, interesting audience.

On the flip side, the stock hasn't been killing it.

There's like these investors coming at you, trying to tell you to change all these things.

I guess just thoughts, reflections, and what do you think people are missing about where this might go?

You had a really interesting way of describing Snap in the market.

You called Snap the middle child.

Talk about just what that means.

Speaking of middle child, you have a number of children.

And I'm curious, there's a whole going a whole different direction.

What's your just like policy on screens and devices, you know, having built Snapchat, and then also specs, just how do you how do you think about devices and your kids?

Is there anything you're doing with AI in your kids, like maybe even the older one, just like AI education sort of tools, chat GPT?

Yeah, it's interesting.

Snapchat has always been really good at allowing you to create and make feel like a superstar just

create all these really crazy lenses and filters and all these things.

And it's interesting, AI, just like vibe coding, just unleashes so much creativity.
