Moving on to the second news of the day is that the workforce is becoming synthetic. So what happened this week is that a startup like Atom are launching fully autonomous AI agent, as in employees. These are not only co pilots or tools, but they are specifically AI agents that will build and scale businesses end to end. At the same time, even those platform like Salesforce are positioning AI agent as an out of the box digital employees. And I personally believe as well that sooner we're going to have AI colleagues sitting next to us as well. So as in founder and business, what's your take on it? AI as an employee.
It's going to happen, but I'm not sure if a new startup.
Would.
Be able to survive this because what cloud cowork is what cloudbot is, these are the AI agents. I mean why do I need a separate team to make it work? I think the real thing that that's, that's required is, I mean it's great that all these startups are spinning up, but I think what we need to solve for is data sets, national level data sets, breakthroughs in science, those kind of things are required. More tool use, setting up AI agents who can be treated as full time employees and digital agents or whatever. I think that would be an easy that that's already happening if you are cloud cover. It was using cloudbot. You know.
