Toby, you are the best podcast co-host I know.

You'll get there someday, maybe.

But do you know what else is the best LinkedIn ads is when it comes to generating the highest B2B ROAS of all online ad networks?

You can target your buyers by job title, industry, company role, seniority, skills, company revenue, so you can stop wasting budget on the wrong audience.

You really have to stop spoiling movies, Toby.

It's a bad habit.

She dies, Neil.

She dies.

The main problem for Sora is that no one was using it, and it was insanely expensive to operate.

It came out of the gate so fast.

It reached a million downloads faster than ChatGPT, but then it had a huge punch.

People really weren't using the social media platform.

By January, downloads were down

45% according to TechCrunch.

Meanwhile, video generation like this is so expensive, takes up so much compute for a company like OpenAI.

Forbes estimated that OpenAI was perhaps blowing as much as $15 million per day.

And there was no way to make money off this particular consumer app.

You didn't have to pay for it.

There was no ads.

So it was just a money pit.
