Or how different use cases are going to form themselves with AI now. And this just has such a big impact. So I keep talking about what happens, for example, when Alexa and Google Assistant suddenly respond like chatgpt or perplexity. What's going to happen then? Right? The number of times where we were sitting on a dingham table asking Alexa something my kids were asking about and Alexa couldn't tell us. I've lost count of them. And we stopped using it and just pick up the phone and Type it into ChatGPT now or into a Google search. But imagine what's going to change if all those assistants that we have in almost every room very often, at least my family is pretty technological, but at least I think everybody I know has at least one Alexa somewhere.
It's just really mind blowing how the user behavior is going to change.
