And AI is rapidly able, you know, AI is amazing new technology that I would argue allows us to automate a lot more than we previously potentially could.

Like, class mobility is down.

Like, there was much more class mobility earlier in the 20th century in America and in other countries.

Like, that's purely a fact.

So I think that fear is that it's closing off in a more permanent way.

I mean, those are probably more due to policy decisions than some new technology being invented, I would say.

Yeah, but it's but I think this new technology has become the symbol of all of this.

And when you see I mean, now we're talking about these IPOs, right?

You see these mega rich, you know, tech billionaires, you see how hard it is for working people.

And I think this is, again, the lack of class mobility, the wealth disparity in this country, it is driving a lot of the animosity towards this new technology.

Well, I agree that it's become the symbol.

I just think we probably should focus on the actual causes and not the symbols of it.

I mean, to me, I don't know.

You have in the Bay Area people who are making $20 million a year going out and overbidding on houses right now because they're so worried about...

The billionaires who, you know, who are about to cash out when the company goes IPO.

And then you have me who's like way below that.

Like I am the I'm the permanent underclass of Silicon Valley.

And like life is pretty good in the permanent.

Let me stop you right there.
