Thanks for having me.

I'm excited.

Long time, long time reader and listener.

So this will be fun.

I'm excited.

Yeah, we were talking right before this off camera about sort of the transitionary period that AI Studio is going through.

So we have a traditional playground experience where folks can sort of experience the models and see what they're capable of.

And the whole point is to sort of help you as a developer or an AI builder

build an intuition and a mental model of like, what are the Gemini models?

And actually more broadly than just Gemini VO, imagine what are Google's models capable of doing?

And I think the like builder 1.0 era was the way to do that was in this playground type of environment.

I think we've actually moved on beyond that now where like now people

uh, are, are testing the models in different ways.

And that's the way we now, we, I think around like IO this year, um, or even it might've been even before that we, we released this, um, this build tab on the left-hand side of AI studio, where you can go in and actually have the model, like build you an entire app.

Um, and for a lot of the things, like it'll build you an app that's in some way powered by Gemini, which is actually really cool.

Um,

And so I spent a lot of my time, again, we're in this weird transitory period where I know how the product is going to evolve.

So I'm using the current product and it makes it, it's hard because I'm like, ah, I want the future version so badly.

So I have to like pull myself out of using it too much.

But it tends to be like this,
