It would neither sadden nor surprise me to see this completely nuke OpenAI and Sam Altman permanently. They’re not playing, and OpenAI is so heavily leveraged they can’t deal with this kind of threat and spin plates at the same time.

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.

1) Musk needs to keep Tesla stock price up, 2) He has installed loyalists (and Starlink) at strategic locations, 3) He and Thiel are sucking all government data to target and harm Americans into xAI and Palantir, 4) never relent in placing pressure on both him and Tesla.

And yeah, the code is subtle on this point, but generally boils down to direct advocacy for specific candidates and outcomes in electoral contexts. And that is Epoch Times’ bread and butter, to any reasonable observer.
