You think about every incredible company that you love.

They did it.

They built something 10 times better.

The iPhone was 10 times better than the Nokia.

There's just no question about it.

Google was 10 times better than the other search engines.

Every breakout product has that 10x thing, and it's totally possible.

You can look at any problem right now and think to yourself, what does the world look like if it was 10 times better?

So, you know, when I was at Google X, we built the drone delivery project, right?

Do people really value speed?

Yeah, I think people value speed.

If I can get something and it's 10 times faster, like it could come to me in five minutes rather than two days.

That would be incredible.

Yeah, exactly.

If something can be 10 times cheaper, that's a really clear thing.
