And so you'll never have our thumb on the scale hiding behind an algorithm, which I think Twitter does all the time, for example, and all sorts of weird things there. We'll always tell you what the intended behavior is. And if we make a change to it, we'll explain why.

But if we do discover something like what you just said, or like what I just used as an example, and we say, okay, when people are using it for education, we are going to use the Socratic method because it does seem to have this measurable effect, and here's why we're doing it. We can debate that publicly. Maybe we change our default if you convince us otherwise.

Anyone can, of course, change that in their user preferences because the AI is like a tool for you and should do what you want. But I think the thing that would be wrong is if we change that and didn't reflect it in the spec and didn't tell people we were changing it. I think the black box of the Twitter algorithm, for example, doesn't feel good to me.

All of those things and also I hope – I mean like he's our president and I wish him every bit of success and any way we can work to support this part of what he wants to do, we want to do.

I mean a ton of ways but one is that I – I've watched for the last maybe 10, 12 years as I think things have gotten off track. Things have been good in some ways, but I think gotten really off track in terms of how we think about the importance of growth and economic success and a focus on the right things in the country and in the world more broadly. And I think it got very off track.

And I'd say the vibe shift is a hope that as we're facing down one of these most important moments in technological history, That can help drive a vibe shift back to what I believe in very deeply, which is that growth is the only good way forward.

Yes. I actually wrote something like – someone just sent this back to me. I wrote something more than 10 years ago about how growth – I think it was my very first blog post ever about how growth was the central ingredient to democracy working well. And I think the world got badly confused about that, and I'm happy to see it re-recognized.
