We're we're on our way to commodification is I think what's happening. This could very much look like storage or compute in a couple of years looked, you know, 20 years into Web 2.0, which is people just start, stop thinking about it and can't tell the difference. It's completely possible that there'll be 20 different models that all have, you know, 99% similar results, not for super intelligence and trying to cure cancer or fold proteins or solve mysteries of the universe and, you know, go through every single image on in the world, but be able to tell you how to make sushi rice really well or, you know, where to plan your trip for your family in Europe for two weeks. you know, at this price point. So we're gonna see that commodification happen.
I think right now, if you were to switch the models from the major companies for 50, 60, 70%, maybe 70% of queries, I don't think consumers could tell the difference.
