so i had to essentially make a's on everything because to just to pass the class essentially because i was bored i'm an entrepreneur i'm partly add i know i'm wired different but it taught me absolutely nothing now here's what i learned you nailed it the soft skills people coming to consensus absolutely probably was worth the money just for that however i might could have learned that and gotten further towards where i wanted to go doing something different if different had existed

Yeah, great point.

I do want to talk about Canvas a little bit.

Workers falling behind because of tech or because of how we train them.

And it seems like Canvas is helping close that gap.

I try to be reflective outside of my own curiosity and skill set or whatever I'm interested into.

And then sometimes I step back, call it empathy, call it just understanding other sides of it.

But it's a lot to digest.

It is intimidating.

I've got Claude and Chad GPT for the best answers.

I kind of like that answer better than this one.

Especially like when prognosticating my age, how long I'll live.

I do think it is overwhelming because I'm very good with change and adapting, but I go, damn, this is a lot to take on and understand how to apply it.

How do you think employers should think differently about training and onboarding in this day and age?

Yeah, that's very flawed.

We've seen both sides of it.

We've come up in this innovation realm, but we're also part of the analog world, like the way a lot of old employers and people thought, very scarcity driven.

These tools have an empowerment component.

How much they unlock.

I came up in the ad agency business too, Ryan.
