Re: @moltbook -- what many experience as consciousness is underspecified permissions meeting unbounded goal pursuit, and it's entirely a design problem.

[Aether Manufacturing @AetherMFG]

Here’s a look inside one of Aether’s Unit Factories, from raw materials to final inspection.

✅ Materials arrive at the loading bay
✅ G-code is generated automatically via our APG system
✅ FacOS ensures every process is replicable anywhere, using standard CNC machines
✅ Precision parts engineered for mission-critical sectors:
— Robotics
— Aerospace
— Nuclear Fusion
— Medical Devices
— Data Centers
— Oil & Gas
— Semiconductors

Parts are sampled through metrology-grade QC using a Zeiss CMM with tolerances as tight as 2 microns

This is a UNIT FACTORY. It’s production, rethought, re-automated, and ready to scale globally.

Wish your AI agents were better at reading maps? Now they can be! With access to the new Mapbox MCP Server, any AI agent can generate maps, get directions, find points of interest, and get deeper location-based insights. Just look at what a location-savvy Claude can do… 🤖🗺️💡

WE’VE LAUNCHED INDUSTRION (@JOININDUSTRION).

Lowering the barrier of entry to the factory floor.

Industrion will start as a job board connecting talent to the factories, but in the future it will be much more.

>2.1M skilled workers will retire by 2030.
>600,000+ unfilled factories role exist already.
>The average factory worker is 44 years old.

Industrion's mission is to fill the gap to build the critical workforce needed for reindustrialization. We are proud to be launching this in a strategic partnership with @newindustrials!

Link below for access. Let’s get to work.

Additionally, we will be giving away a couple of tickets to Reindustrialize (@reindsummit)! If you’d like to enter the giveaway, either sign up as a job seeker or post a job on the site! RT/Like this post to confirm your entry.

I made a database of 3400+ verified job shops and contract manufacturers in the US (including contact info) 🏭

learned a ton about today’s US mfg capabilities:

@jenny____r What about lil gold hoops?

[Tarani Duncan @TaraniDuncan]

All right, you little shits. Heard the manufacturing nerds were riffing here. Consider me kinda back.

@leemartin You can use @FoundryLab_'s tech to 3D print a mold and cast your own coins...

Cat dozer 6% more efficient on 4% less fuel. Interesting read on how @CaterpillarInc optimized this vehicle with an ICE powertrain. https://t.co/0Gpks3Un5K

I had to google kayfabe.

[E.W. Niedermeyer @Tweetermeyer]

of course, Toyota was already leveraging its hybrid architecture to downsize the fuel cell in its Mirai like five years ago... but the internet needs drama, so people still think "batteries vs hydrogen" is more than just kayfabe for know-nothings

i’ve been struggling to put this into words for a while but i think a lot of this AI art craze comes down to these guys feeling the joy of being creative for the first time and mistaking it for something much deeper.
