Alessio [00.21.47]: No, no, no, no | think like- You think so? No, no. I think like the,
whatis possible today and like vehat 1s worth investing in, you know? And | think
hke, [mean, people look at you and say, well, these quys are bu:iding agents. They
needed 400 million to do it. So a lot of VCs are maybe like, oh, | would rather invest
In something that is tacking on Al to an existing thing, which is like easier to get the
market and kind of get some of the flywheel going. But I'm also surprised a lat of
funders just don’t want to do agents. It's not even the funding Sometimes we look
around and it's kke, why is nobody doing EE for x? wow
David [00:22:17]: That's good to k never knew that before My sense
from my limited perspective is thi Int Company poppsng up every day.
Swyx [00:22:24]: So maybe I'm- They are. They are. But like [have advised people
to take agents off of them title because it's so diluted.
David (00:22:31): It's now so diluted.
Swyx [00:22.32]: Yeah. So then it doesn’t stand for anything. Yeah.
David (00:22'35}: That's a really good point
