One of the things that we're seeing right now in this world, OpenAI and lots of other companies are paying a bunch of PhDs to like by hand go figure out PhD math equations so they can internalize the model. I think Web 2.0 was very much the kind of wisdom of crowds. And we're at an age where it's the wisdom of experts. We're not trying to get what the average output of every single human is.

We're trying to get what really amazing people at whatever their field is across every field in the world would do in this situation. And so if you are running a next-gen product with AI deeply embedded and you have the best users using that product, that will inform you to make better products for those users and inform the models that you're building.
