If the PHP Foundation is letting things sit for a few years, do we need to be paying more attention to what feels like a very foundational layer of the internet? Gary, is there anything else here in this story that we should be paying attention to?
17:12
That's an excellent question.
17:14
And I'd be curious to know if this would cause them to get donations, maybe, for example, to go help fund.
17:21
Like, hey, let's go do some research.
17:24
Once certain things get big, like TrueCrypt, for example, they got some fundings and got a bunch of pen testing and all the other stuff.
17:32
That could be quite interesting.
17:33
And what's also with PHP in particular is that there are so many different versions of PHP.

Is this a, is this story scaring you as well?
1:34
From your perspective, why are we struggling in this moment with deploying these AI agents?
1:39
So first off, I agree with everything Mike said, but because I want to have some variety, I'm going to focus on something else.
1:44
I'll mention speed.
1:45
And this is speed just for deployment, as well as the speed at which the LLM or whatever AI agent, how it operates.
1:53
And because of that speed, it can do so much in such a short period of time that you've got to be sure that it's right, because otherwise it's going to do a lot of really bad really fast.
2:01
And then of course there's the scale as well.
2:03
So if you have multiple instances of it, you can now do way, way, way more.

And that's how you continue to sort of really make sure this agent is behaving the way it should be.

So, you know, I just think that we need to just be very conscientious and know that whenever it has five stars, it's ranking, it's trending, uh, that is not necessarily the greatest indicator.
6:52
And in fact, sometimes it might even be a, a good indicator of the opposite because a lot of these bad guys will go out and buy, like, these browser plugins, like, from the author, uh, that have made it to, like, the top 10 or the top whatever.
7:04
They offer 'em some sum of money.
7:06
Um, they buy it.
7:07
They have the rights, they've got the code.
7:08
They now add malicious, uh, you know, code into there.

What's, what, which one of these kind of interests you? What do you think is gonna have the biggest impact?
