Microsoft's initial plan was to leapfrog both Google and Amazon to become the largest tech infrastructure company in the world. Then they got scared. They backed away from OpenAI, backed away from some leases, and even slowed down their construction pace for major datacenters.

At my direction, early this morning federal agents arrested Don Lemon, Trahern Jeen Crews, Georgia Fort, and Jamael Lydell Lundy, in connection with the coordinated attack on Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. More details soon.

For those confused why the US state and Silicon Valley are having a meltdown on twitter today. China released multiple AI models that are 50x more efficient than the best American AI models and made them open source, ruining the AI market

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

I am very excited about AI, but to go off-script for a minute: I built an app with Codex last week. It was very fun. Then I started asking it for ideas for new features and at least a couple of them were better than I was thinking of. I felt a little useless and it was sad.

Hi! I'm one of the prompt writers that worked on this ad. It's a lot harder than people think! Prompts that my team used include: -make it funny -make it epic AND funny -funnier!!! Please be nice to my team as many of them will be laid off/replaced by AI

It’s patently absurd that Apple isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is somehow capable of ensuring that OpenAI will protect your security & privacy! Apple has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OpenAI. They’re selling you down the river.

This is a public cry to not waste the silicon and have better AI infra Rivos, DSF, Grand Teton, Ariel and the cut-down MI450X were defensible on some narrow metric that a group inside Meta Infrastructure was optimizing for, but each was a poor decision for the company as a whole.

OpenAI now just needs to sandbag the next model release So the US doesn't export control them So they gain massive market share It's imperative that all the OAI employees don't vauge hype post their next model release as the greatest thing ever Don't know if they are capable tho

Debunking the false narratives around AI Datacenters. First it was that water usage is high, but it's not. This time it's about power prices. The narrative around powe pricing is silly and politically charged with no actually backing Manipulated statistics by people with agendas
