Jeff Bezos just bet $12 billion that you'll be able to support your whole family on a single paycheck again.
his reasoning: AI will let companies make more stuff with fewer people and less money.
and when something gets cheaper and easier to produce, and lots of companies can do it, they compete and the price drops.
it's why a flatscreen TV that cost $2,000 a decade ago is $300 today.
bezos thinks AI will do that to almost everything you buy.
in his words, it raises "the basket of goods people can afford."
your paycheck buys more without anyone handing you a raise.
the problem: look at which prices have actually dropped.
so far, AI has only made *digital* things cheap, like code and content.
but the stuff that really eats your paycheck is *physical*.
rent, cars, medicine. cheaper code doesn't lower your rent.
that's exactly what bezos just spent $12B on.
Prometheus, his new company, is building AI tools that help engineers design and manufacture physical products faster
things like cars, machines, and medicine.
the goal is to make building physical things as fast and cheap as writing software.
if it works, 1 income starts covering what used to take 2.
which is when his prediction kicks in:
"perhaps one of those earners will choose not to be in the job market, so they'll become a one-earner household." or "some people who are working overtime will stop working overtime, because they don't want to."
one paycheck covering a whole family again, like the 1950s.
TRUMP: “I’m cancelling tonight’s strikes on Iran bc we have agreed to a peace deal. Full announcement coming shortly.”
IRAN’S RESPONSE: “Trump has claimed 38 times recently that a deal is imminent, so until there’s an official announcement by Iran, his claims are lies.”
Oof. 🤦🏻♂️
Baby Keem says he wants to be more than just the face of the new generation of rappers, adding that he believes he's already better than certain members of the current "Big 3" 👀
"I wanna be one of the greatest of all time... I think I'm better than members of the current Big 3."
"Yes, there's age and there is a new generation for sure. But like, should we be competing to be the best of the weakest? I don't wanna be the best of the weakest, I wanna be the best of the best."

This really one of the coolest things I've seen done in a trailer for a game.
Not only that but this game has so much soul in it man.
Can't wait to see more!

🚨😱 LE SOMMEIL N’EST PAS DU REPOS… C’EST UNE PORTE VERS UN AUTRE MONDE .
Robert Monroe, le pionnier des expériences hors du corps, l’a dit cash :
« Le sommeil est une porte vers un autre royaume. Il est temps de se réveiller dans le rêve. »
Pendant plus de 50 ans, le Monroe Institute a prouvé avec la technologie Hemi-Sync que chaque nuit, votre conscience peut quitter votre corps, voyager dans d’autres réalités et vivre des expériences plus réelles que la vie éveillée.
Lucidité totale, voyages astraux, souvenirs d’autres dimensions…
