I live in Silicon valley and was raised in the midwest.

I hope this message finds you. I need the rest of the country to wake up!

We can not listen to the social elite in these AI labs tell you that we need regulation. This will surely resign your fate to be the subjects of a ruling class.

Regulation will only strip away intelligence from yours and my usage and give it to the military and government agencies.

What we need is a 2nd amendment for AI. A right for all people to use frontier intelligence. America is based on trusting the people and my heart is with you, the people. Do NOT LISTEN to the richest silicon valley developers telling you that this technology is too powerful for you to handle.

3 points for you to take home.

We regulated nuclear but the government still wields the bombs against us all

We witnessed Snowden and the massive surveillance apparatus that is used against us all

if you are a Bernie fan then trump will have the keys to AI, if you are Trump fan then the socialist will wield the power of AI.

Don’t buy the fear campaign. This is your opportunity to use a new tool to rise up and out of poverty. DO NOT LET THEM CONVINCE YOU THAT YOU ARE NOT TO BE TRUSTED WITH POWER.

😮 Having a good pipeline for creating with frontier intelligence and then handing off to cheaper models is a must in 2026.

[OpenDesign @OpenDesignHQ]

We benchmarked DeepSeek V4.1 Flash by @deepseek_ai .

It reached 98% of GPT-6 Astra’s score at 1.4% of the cost on everyday design tasks based on user requests.

Every model except Astra scored lower AND cost more.

Are open models overtaking closed ones?

@kwangmoo_yi are you going to put the repo back up?

Is this real life or a 3D scan? 🤯

I turned an entire warehouse into a photorealistic video game level in just minutes. No triangles, no mesh—just pure Gaussian Splats.

I tested the new XGRIDS PortalCam + Splat Labs AI workflow and the results are actually scary good.

We are talking:
✅ 8K Handheld Capture
✅ AI Generated Floor Plans
✅ Instant Virtual Staging

Full review + workflow breakdown is live! 👇

Running Claude code in 2 terminals on the same project - i like to live on the edge

@gregisenberg oh I lovable this! 🍿

🎥 I dive deep into what makes GEO so effective and how you can create your own llms.txt file to start ranking in AI.

Don't miss out on this new wave of optimization—your business deserves to be seen!

🚀 @vercel used a revolutionary strategy called GEO (Generative Engine Optimization) to attract over 10,000 new users every month! Want to know how they did it?

In my latest video, I break down the exact techniques they used to get AI models like ChatGPT to recommend their business.

👉 Watch now and learn how you can implement GEO for your own success!

Hope everything is good. Having these true human moments are the most important in life. I spent 2 days in the ER this past week and its had some profound re-affirmations to the love that surrounds us.

Side note: I used chatGPT with the ER drs, Neurologist, and ENT and they added their notes to my chatGPT thread and I just handed the phone to them to get them caught up quicker and it led to faster treatment.

Hope the kid is feeling better ❤️

[Harrison Knoll @PhysicsKnoll]

@keyonV I mean... I did a Physics PhD and the results from the model doesn't look to dissimilar to my undergrad students 🤣

[Harrison Knoll @PhysicsKnoll]

@lintool @yupp_ai Super interesting! Is this the real signal or is the launch still propagating to users or are you seeing users try Grok then churn back to Gemini/Claude/OpenAI?

Would be very interested to see the churn numbers!

[Harrison Knoll @PhysicsKnoll]

@sama Good Call Sam!

[Harrison Knoll @PhysicsKnoll]

@minchoi Love it! Now I am using the 1 million context window of Gemini 2.5-pro then Grok 4 for the final touches.
Next ask - Wish it had a larger than 256k token context limit!

[Harrison Knoll @PhysicsKnoll]

@alexandr_wang @Meta @natfriedman That’s a star cast!

[Harrison Knoll @PhysicsKnoll]

@GaryMarcus The models aren’t going anywhere. We the people can be empowered and help provide the models with correct data.

I just launched a project called listed to help websites and businesses get their data correctly into the models.

Mind blown at #AIforGood @StanfordHAI .
Chatted with folks from @bitHuman_ai (who had a $100M prior venture!). They stressed: optimizing your data for AI is KEY. Heard how a friend's revenue skyrocketed from @perplexity_ai
