San Diego State 00:06:35.310 --> 00:06:37.970 hopes to build on last season's performance with 00:06:37.970 --> 00:06:41.910 key returning players. including Magoon Guath. 00:06:42.290 --> 00:06:45.430 Mark December 14th on your calendars for an exciting 00:06:45.430 --> 00:06:50.970 matchup between St. Mary's and Boise State.

However, many artificial 00:07:57.459 --> 00:08:00.160 intelligence companies are hiring large numbers 00:08:00.160 --> 00:08:04.199 of human employees. This is driving a surprising 00:08:04.199 --> 00:08:07.259 resurgence in Silicon Valley's office market. 00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:11.639 Eric Simons, Chief Executive Officer of Artificial 00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:15.459 Intelligence, Startup StackBlitz, recently announced 00:08:15.459 --> 00:08:19.240 a new office lease in San Francisco.
