Transcript context

…I wonder what the metaphor is for this where this... I continue to be astounded by how much engineering has transformed in two years. It's like a completely different dropdown. We used to sit there in NID and write code, and now you're just talking to agents and reviewing code and shipping 100 PRs a day. It feels like it's an acceleration of how much engineering has changed. But if you looked over the last 10 years or 20 years, you would say the same thing. So, there's just something that's moving faster. And it's hard to wrap our heads around how quickly it's moved in the past couple of years. But it's not totally unfamiliar that engineering or data science or product would have these big shifts, just like how filmmaking works. If you look over the last 100 years, it's unbelievably different because of technology and new tools that we've brought to it. Just feels like the cycle is speeding up. Okay. I want to talk about entertainment for a brief moment. I'm curious just how entertainment will change over time in the next, I don't know, five, 10 years. Just today, we open up Netflix, check out some shows, watch some videos, it hasn't changed in a while. Just that idea of like, oh, I'm going to watch The Pitt and just watch it all.
