She has a lot of experience dealing with crisis and also with a company that's grown very, very quickly in AI.
And she has attracted a tremendous roster of talent at this company.
Absolutely, yes.
Quite a number of early employees.
She has one of the co-founding employees over there, John Schulman, with her.
And also there are people advising the company that used to work at OpenAI.
So it's a very deep bench of experience from that company, but also from other companies as well.
But OpenAI in particular, there was quite an exodus of talent from that company to her company.
I mean, now we know the deadline for the first bids is a week from yesterday, November 20th.
So that's coming up fast.
And I think this is another signal that, you know, big transaction potentially could be coming down the pipeline sooner rather than later.

You know, whether it's a sale of the whole company, whether it's a partial sale, or potentially if there is no sale and the company goes through with its original planned spinoff of the cable networks from the studio and streaming business next year.
Depends on who the bidder is.
I mean, Paramount Skydance clearly wants the whole thing.
They're happy to take the cable networks that would fit in with their portfolio and give them additional scale.
But if you're talking about Netflix, they have no interest in the cable networks.
They just want...
you know, the studios business, the library, the HBO Max side of things.
