So number one is it's – so I call it wheelbase for robots, which is if you're going to do specialized robots that move and act in the physical world, they're either humanoids, which we're not.

I'm not anti-humanoid.

I'm just non-humanoid.

specialized industrial robots, right?

So that's, it's high scale, industrial scale tasks, which means you would not have a humanoid ever do that.

That means you gotta be on wheels.

So we got to build wheels.

So that means, okay, well, when food, when supply chain is going into our facilities, that's a freight vehicle.

We probably should just turn that into a robot that moves stuff and actually interfaces with our facility in a really cool way.

When the, when the food is coming out of our facilities, there's probably like a machine that holds food at temperature.

That's like a box on wheels.

I call them autonomous burritos.

And yeah,

It brings it to your home and it costs 75 cents instead of like the $12 per drop that it costs like an Uber Eats or a DoorDash today.

So it's serving – remember, I'm taking – I'm sort of going through an industry and saying how do we transform it?

Full stack.

How do we automate full stack that entire industry?

So, okay, that's the food thing.

Obviously mining's pretty obvious, but you can imagine there's a lot of other machines that move.

Like I talked about haulage, but what about like, what about grading the roads, the dirt roads?
