There's nothing almost even ruder than just receiving a stupid AI email from someone.

I would much rather receive a couple of terse lines

Exactly.

With some spelling mistakes in it.

Then receive some AI slot.

Yeah, just can't stand it.

Definitely.

And so yeah, I mean, biggest outcome we've had has been Cognition AI.

Walden Yan just started pitching that at an EZA hackathon in 2022.

We gave him about $15,000 prize for his idea.

And yeah, a couple of weeks ago, he announced that his company Cognition AI has now raised a billion dollars at a $26 billion valuation.

So it's been, it's been incredible.

We see so many people.

And as you say, the full life cycle from literally just an idea and just a smart person who's ambitious to going on and building a multi-billion dollar company.

I think what we're seeing right now is it's interesting.

I think maybe a couple of years ago it was, I need engineers or I'm not technical and I can't build this out.

Now that's no longer, I don't know.

I was going to say excuse.

I think for a lot of people, it was a genuine excuse.

Right.
