Here, I just published this. You can't quite see it that well. Maybe you can see this thumbnail a little bit, right? Yeah, I can see it. It says Opus 4.8, right? It doesn't look bad as a thumbnail, right? And I got that done as I was just talking to you and I'm just publishing it right now. It looks good. It looks pretty good. Yeah. So my point is there should be no excuses now. I think if someone like you and me, because we're more business operators than creators, but we're still creators, right? But if I want to react to a video quickly and I have a viewpoint on it, I'm just going to take what videos I have. I'm going to use ChatGPT Images and I'm just going to crank it out. And I showed it to my team because I was like, hey guys, this is really frustrating because I really want to get this video out right now, but I can't do it. And I just opened up ChatGPT Images. I was just like, hey, use this. I did it a little bit and then I just published it. So I think this solves a lot of problems. We'll just leave it at that.
