Well, you know, so many things, gosh.

But I would say for me, I had this really great conversation with Victor Riparbelli.

He owns an AI avatar company where you can create a video with an extremely lifelike looking avatar who will, you know, give instructions to your entire employees about, you know, how to use a piece of equipment.

But he posited that in the future, every kid will have their own personal AI tutor, avatar tutor.

Yeah, maybe

We remember him.

And, you know, he was trying to push our buttons, right?

So part of it was like reading and writing won't be necessary.

It'll just be conversations with these avatars.

And, I mean, no one I talk to actually thinks that's a great idea.

And when I said that to him, he's like, I actually don't think that's a great idea either.

He's like, I'm just trying to provoke people to really understand how much this AI video thing is coming.

And, like, this conversation was...

You know, earlier in the year in 2025.

And here we are.

And look how fast things have moved.

Every time somebody is like, that's not going to happen.

I feel like it does next week.

So I feel like I don't want us to keep not pushing back or thinking things are bad ideas because they are inevitable.

That's the weird sort of tension that I keep.
