Productivity expectations of every white collar worker will now go through the roof. I think everyone will be expected to be 50 to, I don't know, 250% more productive than they have been in the past because they have these tools at their disposal. And so being familiar with all these different systems and understanding when to use them will be absolutely essential. I think we look at even, I mean, there's this, there's this professor at Duke who requires, who requires all, all his English students to use ChatGPT when they write. And it's a bit of a divisive perspective, but very much in agreement with it. The reason is, when those students graduate, they'll be at a huge advantage if they understand how to do it, how to use ChatGPT in a very sophisticated way to write. The trade that he makes with his students is if there's a single grammatical error, you fail.
