If you look just at the number of start ups in Quantum, for example, there are more in Europe than we have in the US, for example. So this is really not the issue. We have the fundamental science, we have the research. We have to early stage venture.What is missing is two things.

What's interesting is some of the same VCs that back OpenAI are backing Anthropic, but talk to us about the gargantuan valuation here. That's right.
