There's a lot to say about GLP-1s. More and more data is coming out showing benefits to the heart, the brain, beyond just weight loss. There is one downside that I need to point out besides what's, what's known about risks. We are working with companies and academics that do a lot of AI now. It's accelerating our work exponentially. AI-driven drug design and looking at billions and eventually trillions of molecules to see which ones might reverse aging. We've done that already. And if anyone tells you AI can only do what we've taught it, that is the biggest bunch BS you'll ever hear. My ancestors die in their 70s. My grandmother had a stroke in her 30s. So the fact that my father is now living in a healthy way beyond any of his ancestors probably ever is testament that you can really change what your genes have given you. There's one thing that is the most powerful: your mindset. I think this is the most exciting time ever to be alive. I want to see as much of it as I possibly can.
