Sort of.

And to be fair, if you go to an ed school, if you went to an ed school 20 years ago, this is what they were preaching, differentiated instruction, active learning, don't be stays on the stage, have a Socratic discussion, do a simulation.

So it's really potentially, and this is what I say, because I get this question a lot, the teacher, I think, moves up the value chain and is able to facilitate and drive a lot of that active learning, which is better for everyone.

I think it's more fun for the teacher.

Mm-hmm.

No, that's right.

I mean, you know, we talk a lot about it at the Khan Academy board that the technology can raise the safety net, raise the floor.

We've seen stories of young women in Afghanistan using Khan Academy.

One of them's at MIT now.

I mean, it's amazing things.

But we see also in the classroom, most students need that human element.

Arguably, all of them do, ideally, if they have it.

Switching gears a little bit, because your other board you're on isn't obviously very related to this, Anthropic.

Actually, I'm just curious.

You could do anything.

What made you join that board?

What's it like at those board meetings when, I'm assuming you all talk about pressures from the White House, how your new model might break all software?

Tell us what you can.

Yeah, it's a lot like your board meetings, you know?

And how have you all pulled that off in closed doors?
