You're not very different, okay?
You're just on top of a baseline that is continuing to grow.
So your business is growing, so you continue to hire, but you are replacing human resources with compute, okay?
If AI didn't exist, you would have probably had a hundred people more in your organization today, right?
You now have a hundred people less and a billion tokens more,
Yeah.
So if you want to get a task done by a human, you count in sort of like man hour or worker hour, employee hour.
In AI, you count by compute, you count by tokens, right?
And so...
The trick is those major tech companies, they have two sides.
One is they need to replace workers with compute even more because there is a competitive side on compute where if any of them is left behind, that means the destruction of the entire business.
But on the upside, they are geeks.
So they know how to build the interfaces to compute.
So they integrate technology within their organizations quicker than the average traditional business, right?
Non-technology business, if you want.
You can look at them and say, this is the preview.
It's not about all of humanity losing their jobs.
It's about what is the dividing line before civil war, right?
