No. As I said, it's not going to be an event. It's going to be continuous progress. And whenever one breakthrough occurs, it's going to be widely disseminated really quickly, probably first within industry. I mean, this is not a domain where government or military organizations are particularly innovative, and they're in fact way behind.

And so this is going to come from industry and this kind of information disseminates extremely quickly. We've seen this over the last few years, right? Where you have a new, like, you know, even take AlphaGo, this was reproduced within three months, even without like particularly detailed information.

No, but even if there is, just the fact that you know that something is possible makes you realize that it's worth investing the time to actually do it. You may be the second person to do it, but you'll do it. And same for all the innovations of self-supervised learning, transformers, decoder-only architectures, LLMs.

I mean, those things, you don't need to know exactly the details of how they work to know that it's possible because it's deployed and then it's getting reproduced. And then people who work for those companies move. They go from one company to another and the information disseminates.

What makes the success of the US tech industry and Silicon Valley in particular is exactly that, is because information circulates really, really quickly. and this, you know, disseminates very quickly. And so, you know, the whole region sort of is ahead because of that circulation of information.

Well, there is a natural fear of new technology and the impact it can have on society. And people have kind of instinctive reaction to the world they know being threatened by major transformations that are either cultural phenomena or technological revolutions. And they fear for their culture, they fear for their job, they fear for the future of their children and their way of life.

So any change is feared. And you see this, you know, along history, like any technological revolution or cultural phenomenon was always accompanied by, you know, groups or reaction in the media that basically attributed all the problems, the current problems of society to that particular change, right? Electricity was going to kill everyone.

At some point, you know, the train was going to be a horrible thing because, you know, you can't breathe past 50 kilometers an hour. And so there's a wonderful website called the Pessimist Archive, which has all those newspaper clips of all the horrible things people imagine would arrive because of either technological innovation or a cultural phenomenon. You know,
