I think at a high level, I think the AI work that we're seeing here now is going to be so much it's going to be like a hundred times bigger than the internet. It's just like everything is just so it's just working so well. Like the system is working well like deep learning works and everything's happening faster than I would have think and my like you know having done like 15 years of like software and internet like it was just like nothing was happening faster on a trend line here it's happening like that in AI

It's going to

3:48be like a human is going to have this like AI pairing. It's going to have like ultimately maybe your own AI weights, your own memories, maybe your own hardware. It's going like really close. And fundamental to that thesis was like you got to figure out how to get AI to use computers general purpose. You would never hire an assistant that couldn't use a computer. So you got to be able to
