And I've heard of companies where people are using cameras to track people folding laundry and ironing clothes because they want to be able to train physically in the future to do those things.

So that part aside, I think on the enterprise side, we can actually run a business much more effectively and efficiently if we decide where we are willing to relinquish control to AI.

Perfect example, marketing, right?

Anything that is required to train a marketing model is already out in the public domain.

By definition, marketing is public domain, right?

If it didn't market it, it's not in the public domain.

So I have the best training data in marketing.

I don't need to train an AI model with more marketing content.

I may need to train it for tone of voice and what my brand is.

And I'm pretty sure an AI model, if I throw my marketing collateral into it, will tell me, this is not consistent with your brand.

If I look at all the things we've been talking about the last 10 years, I think some people have done that.

They've actually analyzed earning scripts of companies and said, the last 20 years, what has company X done?

And when does the CEO start getting away from a topic because perhaps it's not going so well?

So this is really smart.

They can do that stuff.

So it's the best marketing training database in the world, the frontier models.

Why do I need 400, 600 people in marketing?

Because my biggest problem in marketing is I have 600 people, but I'm not sure they all fully understand how to consistently deliver my tone of voice, my value proposition, and how not to break my brand by having different collaterals in the public domain.

You have 600 people in marketing.

Give or take.
