…someone, say, like me or somebody who's thinking about starting a PhD or whatever, right, who is, like, thinking, jeez. I used to know what I needed to do. I need to get really good at coding and master PyTorch or whatever. And now I'm like, yikes. I'm never gonna be better than if not this model, certainly, they're gonna be better than me at writing kernels. It's like, what what is the taste is often the answer, but you've even said there's, pretty good taste in the in the system. What should people invest in in terms of their own skill development that you think will serve them well over at least, like, a one year horizon if you could see that far into the future? I think debugging would be the sort of the easy answer to it. Like, agents fail. Agents of all kinds fail for for all types of reasons. Right? Like, they can be super brilliant. I can be working with Fable on some coding problem, and it can be super brilliant and yet miss a really important detail that totally invalidates the end state of it. And with Silica, we've tried to, like, design these types of multi agent loops that help address some of those shortcomings for the type of research that we're doing. But fundamentally, the the job…
