Chamath, any thoughts on Facebook's progress with AR and how that might impact computing and interfaces when paired with language models.

I think you're on this one wrong, Chamath, because I saw this revolution in Japan maybe 20 years ago. They got obsessed with augmented reality. There were a ton of startups right as they started getting to the mobile phones. And the use cases were really very compelling. And we're starting to see them now in education.

And when you're at dinner with a bunch of friends, how often does picking up your phone and you know, looking at a message disturb the flow? Well, people will have glasses on, they'll be going for walks, they'll be driving, they'll be at a dinner party, they'll be with their kids.

And you'll have something on like focus mode, you know, whatever the equivalent is in Apple, and a message will come in from your spouse or from your child, but you won't have to take your phone out of your pocket.

And I think once these things weigh a lot less, you're going to have four different ways to interact with your computer in your pocket, your phone, your watch, your AirPods, whatever you have in your ears and the glasses. And I bet you glasses are going to take like a third of the tasks you do. I mean, what is the point of taking out your phone and watching the Uber come to you?

But seeing that little strip that tells you the Uber is 20 minutes away, 15 minutes away, or what the gate number is. I don't have that anxiety. Well, I don't know if it's anxiety, but I just think it's ease of use.

I think it adds up. I think taking your phone out of your pocket 50 times a day.

Okay, Zach, do you have any thoughts on this impressive demo or the demo that people who've seen have said is pretty darn compelling?

I just want to point out like the form factor you're seeing now is going to get greatly reduced. These were some of the early Apple. I don't know if you guys remember these, but Frog Design made these crazy tablets in the 80s. that were the eventual inspiration for the iPad, you know, 25 years later, I guess. And so that's the journey we're on here right now.

This clunky, and these are not functional prototypes, obviously.
