gordon: thanks, brian. i think a lot of what you said tied back to your points about the importance of government, having an ethics counsel and risk profiles. one of the questions i have for you is how do you balance that with this desire for innovation for the mission people and you have mission responsibility to move forward as fast as possible, do not want to wait and say this technology will help us catch a bad guy or solve a financial rhyme or fix the climate and sustainability challenge tomorrow? we can't wait for the governance process. how are you balancing those engines? >> this is pretty exciting. as we are building out a new field here, i have been the deputy chief ai officer and if you saw in the new york times this weekend, the highest job across is the new chief ai officer which means there will be a lot of new people showing up in this space who have not been trained in it because there is no training at on what a chief ai officer is. that will be interesting to figure out how we build these
