I'm really impressed with the list of data sources (120+) you have at launch. How long did you spend integrating each of these tools? Having some experience here, I can say that this is typically…

I have to disagree with the central thesis. Disclosure, I’m building snazzy.ai, a company that utilizes GPT-3. Counter to the article, GPT-3 isn’t the moat, the moat is the company you build around it…
