…been through a lot. As well. The reason I bring up Microsoft is because, [01:22:00] I mean, obviously Huge Backer. We actually talked to David Juan who pitched, I think it was Satya at the time, on on the, the first billion dollar investment in OpenAI. The understanding I had was that the best situation was for Open OpenAI, for Microsoft was open. The As is second best was Microsoft Echo hires Sam and Greg and, and whoever else. And that was the relationship at the time. Super close, exclusive relationship and all that. I think now things have evolved a little bit.
