So embarrassing, even more embarrassing than $TRUMP because at least that one worked (allowed fraudsters and foreign agents to pay him directly for pardons and favoritism) But how could this token possibly fight antisemitism and anti-Americanism?

Why it worked

Ends on a question, which is the most reliable way to turn readers into repliers.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Turn
Style: Conversational paragraphs at a steady pace.
Tone: plain, matter-of-fact
Written for: People building with AI

Attorney General Pamela Bondi

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 probably one of the highest IRR VC investments of all time Martin / A16Z led the series A ~2 years ago at a $400M valuation… now Cursor is acquired for $60B. ~120x return in 2 years after accounting for dilution… ~1000% IRR, and a 10 digit gain for LP’s!

OpenAI’s hardware product is a donut-shaped smart speaker the size of a hockey puck, with a camera, speakers, microphones, and lights. $300-400 Certainly seems like that product @jgebbia was spotted with in SF could be a prototype

Jeff Dean (30th employee of Google, there since 1999) is leaving to start a company with @Sanjay_Ghemawat& other Google AI leadership. He raised a round from Radical VC, Khosla and Google, size not reported $GOOG -4% today

Bending Spoons is acquiring Airtable for $2.25B Airtable has $965M of cash, so the EV is $1.285B. Airtable had raised $1.35B of VC capital, last round Dec ‘21 at $11.7B. At ~$480M ARR growing 20%+ YoY, that’s 2.7x ARR. Surprised they are selling with so much cash!

Apple claimed OpenAI was ignoring them and then sued over stolen trade secrets. Turns out Apple’s counsel sent the notice to the wrong email after mixing up 2 Asian last names🤦🏽‍♂️! Love airing of dirty laundry direct to the public. Doubt Apple will respond the same way.

MSFT putting $2.5B and 6,000 engineers in “Frontier Co” Now Microsoft, Amazon, OpenAI and Anthropic are all in the Palantir-like deployco business.
