…opinion. 1000, well, there's so many claps in the one, hundreds in everything that you said, but yeah, we've been try to push forward this field of ai UX on our podcast for a while. We, we had a couple meetups and yeah, I strongly encourage people to explore beyond the text box. I dunno if OpenAI is interested in that, right? Because they're soft deprecating the old completion API and now everything's chat and I think Riley feels this pain because now you can't play those, those old tricks anymore. Just because they're doing that doesn't mean, I don't think they have like one opinion or another. I think that like, You know, we could just like think of these models as reasoning a, like engines that we could leverage and then do whatever we want with the output.

But like that to me kind of signals that, you know, if anything, they're trying to give us more paths to, you know, create interactions that go outside of just chat back and forth. That's actually a good a good segue into how. Do you guys think these changes affect kind of what sev just said, that people don't necessarily wanna chat with everything, so even though it's still in this chat format via had api, right? So Riley was talking about the completion endpoint. Previously you, you would send some text and then the expectation from the model, I think it was da Vinci, right? There would just autocomplete kind of the rest of it, like by a few segments. Since then, we moved to this chat thing and then we saw some differences between like even 3.5 and, and four where the system message kinda applies differently. So, go ahead. Right?…
