And most of my generation, my cohort, people like Elon or David Marcus or Sean from Sequoia, Emile Michael, like all of these guys and gals are in Palm Beach doing like 17 hour days. You know, it's like the best and the brightest have converged. And also it's very similar, like Silicon Valley goes to Washington, you know?

And so I'm very excited because, you know, you look at David Sachs is now the AI, you know, and crypto czar for the president. Elon is running Doge or Vivek. You have some of the brightest minds in the world about to revolutionize the way government works and make it way more efficient. I wrote a proposal about privatizing many aspects of government, including the U.S.

Postal Service, which is a big money loser, is not using modern technology to compete with FedEx and UPS and DHL and so on. And we could do a lot better Amtrak. Amtrak should be privatized and turned into Hyperloop and high-speed rail. We can do really great things, and there should be also moonshots for AI. I do a lot in quantum computing. I've done it for a long time.

I believe AI and quantum are going to merge, and that's going to accelerate the future. So I think the market's waking up, especially after Willow and what Google announced yesterday. This has been my thesis for over 10 years. There's another company called Psy Quantum that came out of Cambridge here in the UK.

I mean, they're basically state-owned enterprises, right? So the Chinese government is subsidizing them. And so that's a major threat to our ability to be competitive. But even with tariffs, the Chinese electric car companies have gotten to the point that, you know, their cars are like $15,000 and they're good cars. So even if you add 100% tariff,

You're still talking about $30,000, still affordable to a lot of people. So they're still going to be able to compete because their prices are so low. And so that's something that we need to think through because America has to build its own manufacturing capabilities, especially in the semiconductor space.

So you saw Masa announcing the $100 billion investment in AI in American economy and companies. What did you make of that? Uh, Masa and Saudi, one of the things he talked about is he, he did his calculations and the numbers for me make a lot of sense. Basically you need to spend trillions, single digit trillions, and then you're going to get 9 trillion of annual value coming out of it.
