We are currently in the midst of the singularity, not waiting for it in the 2040s as originally expected. | I made a 25- year commitment to running the abundance summit. Um, and I I did it early on in 20 2012 um expecting that the singularity would be out in 2040s and the abundance summit would would go through 2037. So, I'd be safe. Oh, no, no, no, no. It's We're in the midst of the singularity right now. It's insane.
