Yeah.

So, like, I think we're in this unique position where, again, 80% of the AI companies are our customers.

We know them super well.

Huge percent of the internet is using us.

Like, I think we're going to help coordinate and catalyze it.

Now, I don't think we'll be the only ones providing it, but once you get that kind of key critical mass, I think the rest of the internet can then go off and adopt it, and then it can become a standard that works across everything.

I think it's going to be different.

You know, I think there's going to be different parts of it.

Like one of it will be, again, the micropayments, which is what this is, is a piece of it.

I think there's another part that maybe like how you train models, how you find that.

And there should be some way of, there's still going to be an advertising business that exists.

It's just going to be very, it's going to be smaller.

It's the same way that, you know, like you still sell, you know, vinyl albums.

It's just a smaller part of your business than it used to be.
