Jack, are there any questions at this time? Yes, Leon, a couple. The first question comes from a stockholder interested in learning more about our application of artificial intelligence. The question is: Can management please comment on applications for AI within Nucor, and how use of AI may lead to increased productivity, decreased costs, and overall improvement of manufacturing and overall performance? Thank you, Jack. In our overall involvement with AI is a continued evolution and growth of Nucor. As Nucor's come and embraced automation, machine learning, and advanced technologies, AI is a natural extension. So specifically, we have roughly three projects that are in the works today, regarding different aspects of AI, from scheduling to efficiencies in the yield and the production capability sets of Nucor, to think about how we streamline our operations to do just what you asked in lowering our cost, improving our yields. And third, also engaging to look at how AI can help us examine and eliminate risk from our operations to continue our journey in becoming the world's safest steel company. We have an incredible team that continues to look more broadly at AI and its applications across the operations, and we'll continue to keep you informed as we move forward. Thank you for the question. Great. Our second and last question that's been submitted relates to our attendance here at this annual shareholder meeting. This stockholder asks: How many shareholders and guests are present at the meeting? We have a total today of 45 that are logged in. Very good. Well, that concludes the Q&A portion of the meeting. If there are any additional questions, please contact our investor relations team, and at this time, I'll hand it back to Leon for some closing remarks. Thank you, Jack. I'd like to close by thanking our teammates for your continued focus in delivering on our most important value, the safety, health, and well-being of all team members who make up the Nucor family.
