And I do have an endorsement to read, and afterward, we're going to do another Ask David. Just me and David. Sadly, May can't join us today. So this is from a really great team therapist, Dan Lenahan, and he wrote you. Hi, David. I was fortunate enough to be one of the original beta testers for the Feeling Great app and knew the potential it had. I admittedly hadn't tried the app since the artificial intelligence or AI implementations. So I was eager for the final release. And wow. Talk about, as you would say, blowing it out of the water or knocking it out of the park. When I saw that externalization of voices was a technique, I wondered how could that possibly work? But wow. Even the way it does, your whole, it's me, your negative thoughts again, just want to remind you, dot, dot, dot, then shows you the negative thought. And it even asks to do role reversals with you. The interactions are genius and have your essence ingrained in all of the chatbot responses. You have truly found a way to reach even more people than ever before and will continue to as it develops.
