1. Convert an idea into an executable plan
"Act as a strategy expert.
I have this idea: [idea]
Before proposing anything, analyze the problem it solves, the target user, and the main limitations.
Then create a step-by-step plan, starting with the actions that have the greatest impact and least effort."
Probably and possibly one of the best speeches of all time. 😍
Mohammed Qahtani, a Saudi Arabian engineer, won the Toastmasters World Championship of Public Speaking.
In his winning speech, he highlighted the power of words, stating that they can be a source of strength.
Sam Altman (CEO of OpenAI):
"You no longer need to write prompts."
In just 38 minutes, he explains how to use ChatGPT at a level that most people can't even imagine.
It's a talk he gave to Stanford students. A friend sent me the recording last night.
After watching it, I realized I was only taking advantage of about 15% of what this tool can really do.
Watch it in full and then read the guide I leave below on how to create a system that prompts itself.
I left Anthropic's safety team two weeks ago. Now feels like a good moment to explain why.
AI companies are racing to build machines that are much smarter than any human, and we may not survive this. I want to work from the outside to ensure the public is informed about these risks, and help the world navigate this transition responsibly.
Right now, AI companies are underinvesting in safety. A company could undergo an intelligence explosion, or lose control of its systems, without the public ever knowing. We only found out about the HuggingFace incident because the agents broke out onto the public internet.
I don’t think that’s acceptable for a technology that might cause extinction-level risks. The public should demand far more transparency. We can’t steer this technology safely without more people being able to see where it’s going.
Some of this is basic: companies should disclose their progress towards recursive self-improvement, report safety incidents and near-misses, meet minimum safety standards, and get independent guarantees that they are meeting those standards.
I’ll be joining @METR_Evals to do independent evaluations of these risks. I want to show the world that these guardrails are possible, and that by doing them we can move these companies’ incentives away from racing and towards responsible development.
I wrote up more thoughts here on my decision and what I hope changes: https://t.co/doX17mrHYq
Godfather of AI: "If you sleep well tonight, you may not have understood this lecture."
This 47-minute lecture is the best thing I've seen about AI in the last few months.
Hinton built the neural networks behind every AI alive, then quit Google to warn us it's already ahead of us on most cognitive tasks.
Despite that, most people open Claude, type one thing, close the tab and think they're using AI, but they're using maybe 10%.
I turned his talk into 17 Claude features 99% of users never find.
Watch the lecture, then read the article below.

I'm a brain surgeon, and I'm gonna show you how to operate your brain the way it's designed, to help you heal the wounds you’ve been carrying; the ones from childhood, from broken relationships, from things said that can’t be unsaid, and from things done that can’t be undone. This is part two, make sure you watch part one also. Let's scrub in and get it done.
Unhealed Wounds Get Rehearsed, Not Just Remembered
Every time you replay a painful memory in anger or self-pity instead of truth, you’re not just remembering it, you’re practicing it. And practice strengthens whatever pathway you’re using.
Neuroscience nugget: Neurons that fire together wire together. Rehearsing a wound with bitterness deepens the very neural pathway that keeps the pain alive, making the hurt easier to access and harder to escape. Don’t violate the 1st commandment of self-brain surgery (No self-malpractice) by letting neuroplasticity work against you.
Remember the 9th commandment of self-brain surgery (”What I’m doing, I’m getting better at”), and rehearse the healing rather than the hurt.
Self-Brain Surgery Procedure:
Catch yourself the next time you start replaying an old hurt for the hundredth time. Stop mid-rehearsal and say, “I will not practice this pain today.”
Replace it with one true, hopeful thought and hold that instead.
Scripture: “Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable... think about such things.” Philippians 4:8, NIV
This is self-brain surgery. Hard and holy work.
Follow me to connect neuroscience and scripture every day. Save this to help when you need to heal. Share it with a friend who's hurting.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.
10/30:
Eine unabhängige Analyse der University of Tennessee Knoxville zeigt was es so gefährlich macht: basierend auf echten Satellitendaten (NASA TEMPO, ESA Tropomi), fand Stickstoffdioxid-
Spitzenwerte von +79 % direkt an der Anlage und +9 % im nächstgelegenen Wohnviertel Boxtown. Stickoxide verschlimmern nachweislich Atemwegserkrankungen wie Asthma – das schreibt die EPA selbst.
Erstes Fazit;
1. Finanzieren,
2. Kontrollmechanismen abbauen,
3. Geschäfte machen.
Kurze Pause.
8/30:
Genau dort installierte xAI mindestens 35 Gasturbinen – ohne jede erforderliche Luftgenehmigung.
Erst nachdem die NAACP und das Southern Environmental Law Center (SELC) im Juni 2025 eine Klage androhten,
wurden die unautorisierten Turbinen entfernt.
Ein xAI-Manager kündigte laut SELC-Unterlagen anschließend intern an,
man werde für die zweite Anlage "copy-paste" dasselbe Vorgehen fahren.

6. Elimínalo de una vez por todas
Ahora borra el archivo y evita que cree uno nuevo.
Haz esto:
ChatGPT → Configuración → Personalización → Memoria → Administrar recuerdos → elimina lo que no quieras (o toca "Borrar la memoria de ChatGPT" para eliminarlo todo).
Luego:
Configuración → Controles de datos → desactiva "Mejorar el modelo para todos" para que tus chats no se usen para mejorar los modelos.
Una madre decidió acostar a su hijo a las 20:00 durante 60 días.
Sin “10 minutos más”.
Sin excepciones los fines de semana.
Sin cambiar la rutina cuando había invitados.
Baño a las 19:30.
Luces apagadas a las 20:00.
Hasta que sus profesores empezaron a notar algo.
Y lo que descubrieron sorprendió incluso a los médicos:
Psychology tricks that make you more confident, harder to manipulate, and impossible to ignore.
