Thank you for your question. It's a great one.
What I've been seeing so far is a real intention to regulate AI, especially in the European Union. I've gone to Brussels a couple of times and spoken to the representatives there. The issue is that AI is not a single thing. It's not a single piece of technology. For example, we've been working with them to take the AI energy score project I mentioned and make it implementable via standards. I participated in a workshop a couple of months ago with representatives from the ISO, for example, that aimed to develop metrics and functional units—all that stuff.
The tricky thing with AI is that we need to figure out specific use cases, so we're starting with, for example, text generation and image generation. What's interesting is that a lot of businesses, especially in Europe and Canada, have ESG commitments, and they're trying to understand how AI is impacting these commitments. They have their reporting guidelines. They have the things they measure. They're trying to integrate AI, but they don't have the numbers themselves. Their shareholders and even employees, in a lot of cases, are saying, “We don't want to use this technology unless you give us some numbers because we have convictions.” We're trying to help them get these numbers.
Honestly, we're seeing a lot of interest.
