Hugh Wozentroff will be writing about Shocker AI this weekend in the Times. As I said, I'll be doing a few more interviews over this next month and a half depending on how it goes with folks coming out from various different angles. And that is it for me this week. Have a fabulous weekend and we will talk to you very, very soon. Bye-bye.
