I see something else!
It looks like the letter Q, with some kind of number…
In physics, Q means electric charge.
Could that be the tease or is it pointing at the next earnings quarter? 🤯
@Emilylgoodin Of course he’s next to the press pool. He owns a paper. He wants them on their best behaviour, so next time he gets the president’s table. 🤣🥂
🇺🇸🇨🇳 - White House State Dinner:
Power, AI, and the Contest That Matters
Tonight’s state dinner for President Xi Jinping places President Trump beside many of the decisive figures in American technology: Elon Musk, Sam Altman, Jensen Huang, Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai, Tim Cook, and others. The guest list is not decoration. It is a display of where power now sits.
This is not the birth of the AI revolution. That work is already underway. It is a milestone: the race for advanced intelligence treated, at the highest diplomatic level, as a question of national strength, industrial capacity, and shared risk. Trump’s position is blunt: “Whoever wins AI wins.” Some industry leaders, including Altman, Musk, and Anthropic’s Dario Amodei, have called for caution and guardrails. Ambition and restraint will share the same table.
Trump and Musk have not been an unbroken alliance. Their presence together still matters. Political authority and frontier capability, concentrated in one room, can accelerate useful systems—or treat speed as an end in itself.
The United States and China will both be shaped by this contest. Competition can raise standards if safety, misuse, and incident reporting are treated as common problems. Officials have already discussed a notification channel for AI incidents with national-security implications. That is modest. It is also necessary. Every major technology of the last eighty years required boundaries after it proved both productive and dangerous.
The pace has increased. The measure of success is not market value or prestige. It is whether the technology cheapens energy, shortens disease, raises competence, and widens prosperity beyond a narrow elite.
Rules are not the enemy of that outcome. They are the condition for it. Tonight will matter if the people in that room treat AI as a public instrument, not a trophy.
