Um, and, um, and doesn't, you know, 8 billion people making collective decisions on planet earth is not a simple process of like, just like you see this happening.

Now it's like a bunch of the AI CEOs have this thing, which is just like, well, there's just this, they just all have this kind of thing when they talk in public where they were just like, well, there's this obvious set of things that society used to

And then they're like, society's not doing any of those things.

Right.

And it's like, how can society not, you know, whatever their theory is, how can society not see X, Y, Z?

And the answer is, well, society is number one.

There's no single society.

It's like 8 billion people.

And they like all have a voice and they all have a vote, like at the end of the day of how they react to change.

And then, you know, it just like, it's just human reality is just really complicated and messy.

The specific answer to your question is, as usual, it depends.

It depends.

There's no question there are going to be companies... It's already happening.

There are companies that think that they're building value on top of the models, and then they're just going to get blitzed by the next model.

There's no question that's happening.

But I think there's no question also that just the process of adaptation of any technology into the real messy world of humanity is just going to be messy and complicated.

It's not going to be simple and straightforward.

It's going to be messy and complicated.

And there are going to be a lot of companies and a lot of products and, in fact, entire industries that are going to get built to basically actually help all of this technology

Yeah.
