We're obviously comfortable with human margin of error, cuz we get in cars every day. How comfortable do you think people need to be with machine margin of error, what does society have to get used to, we can't get to zero, I imagine. So, we're going to be able to prove in a statistically significant way that we're better than human drivers when we deploy. The tough part of your question becomes how much better than a human driver is society going to demand and to be honest there's no consensus on that. What I do think will happen after a ton of vehicles are deployed though is you're going to see Moore's law start to operate and the compute platform and the censors. Costs will start coming down very quickly but very importantly performance will go up. The other thing you'll see happen of course is as more cars get deployed and we get more learning and more experiences, the cars are gonna continue to get safer and safer and safer. And that's in direct That's completely different from human drivers who don't get any better over time. Arguably, with distracted driving, we're getting worse. So we will be safer than human drivers. And I think quickly you'll see cars get significantly safer than human drivers. [ BLANK_AUDIO ]
