Like, we all thought it was cool to generate a funny image of, like, a fish doing something odd, you know? But now it's kinda getting into the nitty-gritty of what AI really is.

What's kind of the landscape for AI and how people are, are feeling about it and using it today?

Well, it's, it's interesting, because, like, since its inception and since it was publicly rolled out, uh, I had to become a subject matter expert quicklyBecause since I'm helping businesses, that's like the first question on their mind, "Is this a fad or is this gonna go away? Is this gonna be like an Excel spreadsheet?" And what we're seeing is this, there is the need for AI.

But we want the technology, we want to implement it, but it's like, imagine if Iron Man, like, you know, imagine if Tony Stark, uh, was gonna put on the suit and then he had to see the terms of service, and it was like, "What do you mean everything I do in this suit and everything I ask is gonna go to a third party?"

Or, "What do you mean your servers are sitting in China? What do you mean all these things?" He would never get into the suit, you know?

He would have to make his own, right? So that's what he does, and that's what he did, and now we're in this, uh, the, like you said, the honeymoon phase has passed, and it's like, all right, how much can I trust my business with this-

... technology in a way that's not gonna be leveraged against me in the future? And that's just been the, the balancing act that businesses have to face now.

And it, and it's weird for like, you know, you talk about obviously on the business end it's very important, but on the consumer end, like, I feel like-

Like, there's a, a fast food place that I'll go to, and it's AI that I'm ordering with, which I actually kinda like.
