    [03:54] - “We believe we are helping the future manifest at a faster pace.” ~ Vinay Nair

    [22:31] - “I think a lot of what we are talking about at the end of the day will be a human-AI collaborative experience.” ~ Vinay Nair

    [22:55] - “I think we are in a fascinating phase of innovation. If you're running a business, it's sometimes tough to allocate capital to innovation, especially in moments when you feel like you have to survive. But that's a little bit like cutting down on internet spending in 2001 if you want to build a longer-term business. So the ability to reallocate to innovation from other things is going to be a key differentiator of firms that thrive and firms that don't.” ~ Vinay Nair
