i think virtual reality, a.i., voice command, artificial intelligence are areas we have to ask ourselves, how can we create a unique and special experience for our guests utilizing the latest technologies. there's always challenges. you think for someone like me that's been a ceo for 14 years now i should know, i should be right in my he approach. but i'm always learning. i'm constantly moving. the world is moving so fast nowadays. we have a lot of companies buying other companies, creating that scale and launching a lot of different initiatives. we have very tough competition. we have disruptors like airbnb changing the rules of the game. so we have to experiment with different things. we're not going to always get it right. but to me the most important achievements are as a result of mistakes. you have to try things. if they don't work, you learn from it and then you do it again. correcting a mistake is really crucial. it's not easy. there are a lot of stakeholders in a big corporation. it is not only ceo of one of the key staff members recognizing we made a mistake. it is is convincin

so whoever rules a.i. rules the world? potentially. it open up the possibility to automate a lot of things that we haven't done in the past. certainly, there's a lot of investment around the world in artificial intelligence, and we have to make sure we're monitoring that and keeping up with that. we have great researchers and scientists and practitioners in this country that i think will be competing well against those in other parts of the world. so i'm optimistic that ai's really going to have more benefits to society than threats, but we have to make sure that we are watching out for the threats as well. >> andrew, i minean, ai is more than simply processing algorithms and technology. what is the agency doing right now to advance the field of antis pa tor eye intelligence and what role does ai play in all that? >> so as an intelligence organization, the first kind of order of value that we provide is revealing the secrets denied to us by our add vir sarees. so exquisite intelligence collision, signal intelligence, the first sort of
