Like, do you care as a founder that there's a new database technology? You don't care. I was engineers. They will make, like, the most of it. And, so I see this, kinda like, when, like, the crypto, the blockchain came in. It's a new technology. Like, don't be afraid. Like and and to some extent, just think about the use case. Is it in a new use cases that you cannot cannot be sold before, or not? Maybe, maybe not. But, like, focus on the use case. Don't focus on the technology. So, like, when you talk about, like, the AI race, it's like, there's a new technology. Cool.
