I think the idea that somehow we're going to do agentic education for all of our children and we're going to just sync them up to AI chatbots to learn is really going to rub parents the wrong way. And If in fact, 50 years from now you looked at American GDP and because we had automated so many elements of our economy, our standards of living were much higher, but we were spending 60% of gross domestic product just on educating the next generation. That sounds super civilized to me. That actually sounds like a really civilized society, one that dedicates much of its sort of discretionary income towards the cultivation of the next generation. Right. (26:33–26:50)
