We can talk about how the X algorithms changed, how it feels to be a content creator is totally different now.

You almost have to be video first.

I don't know if you feel this, Sean.

If you aren't on YouTube, you are not growing right now.

Yeah, as an entrepreneur, I'm really hesitant to get on that hamster wheel because I see what the life is like of, okay, you got this banger video, your influence grows, got to follow it up the next week, you got to follow it up the next week, you got to follow it up the next week, and you got to be on.

And then we go back to that consistency conversation that we just had, living that life for 10 years, living that life for 10 years, like how would that look?

How would that feel?

I think it's a very difficult job.

I have a ton of respect for people who do it.

I think it's still worth it.

But in my opinion, the value of a personal brand on all things not video is going down, in my opinion.

This is just like the internet boom where 0.1% of the companies will survive whatever happens when the bubble changes and will go on to change the world over the next 20 years.

I'm not doubting the long-term power of AI.

I'm just looking at the money, the hype, the energy that's being poured into it.

I'm spending a lot of time inside of my companies trying to implement AI.

We're adding tools.

and i'm just not seeing it sean like ai is unbelievable for you know me having a doctor in my pocket or me doing recipes or my wife you know you know doing little things but man like where is the long-term value and then when i think about where it's going and i'm seeing my energy bill in athens georgia which is not an energy you know like an area with an energy crisis like some areas of texas and california my energy bills went up 60 in the last three years they've raised it six times

Wow.

There's 30 data centers that have come online in Georgia in the last four years.

There's still 30 more in the pipeline being built right now that have negotiated unsustainable energy rates with the local municipalities.
