I think there are some pictures of the underside, and it looks like it's basically just all a roll cage. We can pull up this one from Zarin Doob. A lot of my timeline last night were a bunch of suckers who fell for this very expensive parlor trick without asking any questions and it's quite disappointing. This sort of grid, maybe an empty shell in there. It doesn't really matter. It is a tech demo but it's not the iPhone moment because the iPhone, of course, was available after it was announced.

  3. Talk about that line of gaslighting. I thought that was a really important line because it does extend everywhere. It's a little like like a P.T. Barnum. Edison did this too, by the way, in his time as an inventor. And so did Franklin in a weird, you know, they all sort of tell their own stories in that regard and disregard reality. Why did you think of that, both the personal and as it moved into the public space?
