So the margin could potentially get competed away over time.
All right, let's get to the big question that I think we're all asking.
And that's the bubble question, the overspending question.
Lou, I've always heard about bubbles being talked about as, you know what, it's not really a bubble until we start adding debt to the equation.
It's not really a bubble until no one thinks it's a bubble.
It seems like we're there now.
Not only are the hyperscalers now adding debt, you have companies like the Neoclouds that have a ton of debt.
You have Oracle, which now has over $100 billion worth of debt.
They were supposed to be one of the winners of the OpenAI build-out.
There's that debt.
There's that leverage there.
There's also...
you know, plenty of people who don't think this is a bubble.
I think there's a lot of people right now with this amount of spending.
Hey, if these companies are going to keep growing their spending, how can this possibly be a bubble?
Is that a concern?
It's like a who blinks first kind of a scenario.
Well, it's going to be fascinating to see how this plays out because the numbers, even to those of us who follow this on a day-to-day basis, I think are shocking at this point.
When we come back, we're going to talk about some of the downstream impacts of AI and that's causing a SaaS-pocalypse.
