## Quote — verbatim

> We predicted in 2020 that there's going to be a chip shortage, GPU shortage... we predicted two years ago there's going to be energy shortage... making the bet on Cosmos, right bet; making the bet on AI is right bet; making a bet on energy now is I think it's going to be the right bet as well.
