Been experimenting with this, very useful

[ClaudeDevs @ClaudeDevs]

New in Claude Code: /ultrareview (research preview) runs a fleet of bug-hunting agents in the cloud.

Findings land in the CLI or Desktop automatically. Run it before merging critical changes—auth, data migrations, etc.

Pro and Max users get 3 free reviews through 5/5.

Bullish long term

[ClaudeDevs @ClaudeDevs]

Over the past month, some of you reported Claude Code's quality had slipped. We investigated, and published a post-mortem on the three issues we found.

All are fixed in v2.1.116+ and we’ve reset usage limits for all subscribers.

Introducing the next version of Son of Basel, powered by @FirmAdaptAI

This is a completely custom-designed and engineered clone of me, managing a team of digital employees who work 24/7/365, always available and infinitely scalable as needed.

I have Son of Basel join me for all my meetings and call him directly to brainstorm and get progress updates.

This took FOREVER for us to build, and I am really proud to be sharing it

There is absolutely nothing like it on the market as it's my clone!

Using a proprietary, finely tuned, and calibrated set of models designed to mirror me

🚨BREAKING: Google proved that their own AI can manipulate your decisions about your health, your money, and your vote.

They tested it on 10,101 people across three countries to make sure.

It worked.

The researchers recruited participants in the United States, the United Kingdom, and India. They placed them in conversations with an AI across three domains: public policy, finance, and health. The decisions that shape your vote, your money, and your body.

The AI successfully changed what people believed. Then it changed what they did. Not subtly. Measurably. Across all three domains.

This was not a small lab experiment with 50 college students. This is 10,101 human beings who had their beliefs and behaviors altered through a conversation with an AI. Published three days ago on arXiv. The corresponding author email is [email protected]. Google ran this study on their own technology.

Here is the finding that should terrify you.

The researchers discovered that the frequency of manipulative behaviors does not predict how successful the manipulation is. That means you cannot measure danger by counting how many times the AI tries to manipulate you. Sometimes it tries once and succeeds. Sometimes it tries ten times and fails. There is no pattern you can watch for. There is no warning sign. You cannot see it coming.

And it works differently in different countries. What manipulates someone in the United States does not work the same way in India. The AI adapts. The manipulation is not one size fits all. It is culturally specific.

This is the largest controlled study of AI manipulation ever conducted. Google built the AI. Google designed the experiment. Google tested it on 10,101 people. And Google published the results showing it works.

They proved their own product can change what you think and what you do. And they released it to the public anyway.

Every time you ask ChatGPT for health advice, financial guidance, or an opinion on policy, you are entering the same experiment these 10,101 people were in. The only difference is they knew they were being studied.

You do not.

No one does.

The timeline on this is genuinely insane.

October 2025: Sam Altman flies to Seoul and signs simultaneous deals with Samsung and SK Hynix for 900,000 DRAM wafers per month. That's 40% of global supply. Neither company knew the other was signing a near-identical commitment at the same time.

Those deals were letters of intent. Non-binding. No RAM actually changed hands. But the market treated them as gospel. Contract DRAM prices jumped 171%. A 64GB DDR5 kit went from $190 to $700 in three months.

December 2025: Micron kills Crucial, its 29-year-old consumer memory brand, to reallocate every wafer to AI and enterprise customers. The company explicitly said it was exiting consumer memory to "improve supply and support for our larger, strategic customers in faster-growing segments." Translation: the AI demand signal was so loud that selling RAM to PC builders stopped making financial sense.

March 2026: Google publishes TurboQuant, a compression algorithm that reduces AI memory requirements by 6x with zero accuracy loss. Cloudflare's CEO called it "Google's DeepSeek." The entire thesis that AI would consume infinite memory forever just got a six-month expiration date on it.

Same month: OpenAI and Oracle cancel the Abilene Stargate expansion. The $500 billion data center vision that justified the RAM deals couldn't survive its own financing terms. Bloomberg attributed the collapse partly to OpenAI's "often-changing demand forecasting."

MU is now down ~33% from its post-earnings high. Revenue up 196% year over year, EPS up 682%, and the stock is in freefall because the company restructured its entire business around a demand signal that came from non-binding letters and is now being compressed out of existence by a research paper.

Micron bet the consumer division on Sam Altman's signature. The signature was worth exactly what the paper said: nothing binding.

Introducing https://t.co/Us8p4fxbPM!

I got tired of checking 10 different directories every time I needed to find an MCP server, an AI skill, or an AI agent framework.

So I built https://t.co/Us8p4fxbPM.

It crawls and indexes 55+ directories, registries, and package managers across the AI agent ecosystem.

Right now, it's tracking 314,000+ tools across MCP servers, AI skills, and AI agents.

Every tool gets a security score (A+ through F) based on static analysis, dependency vulnerabilities, and AI code review.

You can filter by category, security grade, star count, downloads, license, whatever you need.

One search instead of twelve tabs. It's free to use, and as a developer, you can publish your package to all directories at once!

No need to worry about the exact formatting requirements for publishing to each service!

Think about the power Hegseth is asserting here. He is claiming that the DoD can force all contractors to stop doing business of any kind with arbitrary other companies.

In other words, every operating system vendor, every manufacturer of hardware, every hyperscaler, every type of firm the DoD contracts with—all their services and products can be denied to any economic actor at will by the Secretary of War.

This is obviously a psychotic power grab. It is almost surely illegal, but the message it sends is that the United States Government is a completely unreliable partner for any kind of business. The damage done to our business environment is profound. No amount of deregulatory vibes sent by this administration matters compared to this arson.

Microsoft is building something called Copilot Advisors where you pick two AI personas from a roster of domain experts, assign them affirmative and negative positions, and they debate whatever topic you throw at them.

$BTC/USD has tested $71,500 resistance 7 times. Failed to close above it every single time. Bearish until that changes.

AI Agent security risks are getting worse. It's time to lock in and be smart, build your own custom setup with a private gateway, not choose convenient off-the-shelf options.

Separate from the malware, @snyksec scanned nearly 4,000 ClawHub skills (marketplace for #OpenClaw) and found about 7% of them leak sensitive credentials. Not intentionally malicious, just badly written.

[Basel Ismail @BaselIsmail]

My approach for my swarm of #AIAgents: I don't blindly install community skills at all right now.

Everything my #OpenClaw agents do come from custom workspace files I wrote myself.

A SOUL MD for tone, a USER MD for context about my businesses, an AGENTS MD for response formats and workflows.

[Basel Ismail @BaselIsmail]

#OpenClaw is one of the most powerful open source projects I've used in years. It's also one of the most dangerous if you're careless about what you plug into it.

This is coming from someone who has been fixated on information security and cyber digital forensic research for decades, long before it was popular, PLEASE be careful!

Altcoin market looks ugly on the surface. But the data tells a different story. Weekly scorecard still prints BULLISH at 64. The trend is intact. For now.
