I don't know if it was Alexa Plus. I'm not going to say that.

It was the advent of where we can take AI. You can see the turning point. I was there. I was in the middle of it. And it's just awesome moments. what Amazon brings relative to just even what I'm responsible for and how they can all connect magically through AI. You saw Fire TV and Ring yesterday.

I fully believe like this transformation's happening and Amazon's the leader in ambient AI, period, end of story, and in the home. And like, if we can connect all these things, that was, now we're talking whatever a year and a half ago when I was talking to Andy about joining Amazon. And he was just so ambitious about it. He's like, look, come in and do it. Let's do it. That is the tipping point.

There's a lot of nuance in that, but that was the tipping point. Like, we can change the world. You can think the scale, the relative level of investment, the ambition, the patience that Amazon brings, we're happy to talk about. Yeah, the answer to the first question is, sure, I come in, lay down a vision, re-architect the team a little bit.

Get the explicit focus on first thing we got to do is get Alexa right. Once we do that, we'll bring the hardware together. To get Alexa right, it takes music, photos, shopping. And these are photos, of course, under me, but you have across the company, you have music, video, shopping. We'll just use those three as huge tenants to the product. And, you know, those leaders are exceptional.

There's no, we're not gonna work together. It's the opposite. You know, and at Amazon, we set goals. They are cross company goals. And so the goals are set out, you know, from Amazon Nova, which is one of the anchoring points of the product to what music needs to be on the product.

Sure, you know, the expert is kind of a joint thing, the music expert, but ultimately like that music service has to be perfect and music team is killing it right now. Shopping, you know, all in. How to make it great. We didn't do a lot of shopping yesterday just because it would have been like a meme. I mean, of course, shopping. Like, you know, oh, yeah, it's going to be amazing.

And then video, same. And there's other areas. But we align and we go. But it does start with a commitment from me for sure. I'm in. I'm all in. I'm ready to re-architect it. It's not going to be easy. It's going to take time. Andy's patience, I would say, the company's patience to get it right for the customer is extraordinary, like extraordinary.
