[02:03:59] S1: So Intel's CEO, Lip-Bu Tan, is backing up the truck for this company. What is your interaction with him and Intel? He's backing up the truck investing. But, you you you know, obviously, he's, you know, an incredibly important CEO in the AI world, but it's not like he's running a neo cloud that needs offtake capacity necessarily. Like, there's not a super logical business relationship that I can think of. But do you see this growing into a strategic relationship, or is it just you're... You got along great and he had the capital to invest? [02:04:33] S4: Yeah. I would say, fundamentally, like, he's... Outside of Intel, he's a VC. Right? He he he founded Walden Catalyst, which is the best semiconductor Yeah. VC in the Silicon Valley. Yeah. And so, yeah, like, the business ran very well, and I I think he see the upside of building this aggregation layer, orchestration layer. Yeah. But then our goal is, like, we're trying to aggregate the world's compute. We want to put the world's compute behind the people who are bold enough [02:05:01] S1: to [02:05:01] S4: change the world. Yep. Right? So naturally, there's a potentially strategic angle here to leverage other kind of chips. [02:05:09] S1: Yeah. Well, you raised $30,000,000. I'm gonna hit the gong for you. Congratulations and thanks. Thanks. Because [02:05:18] S0: you guys called this the a one, I feel like you might be back on in, like, a week or so for the a two. So [02:05:24] S4: For sure.
