Business professor Scott Galloway says China is flooding the world with dirt-cheap AI models on purpose, and it’s wrecking American AI companies faster than cheap Japanese cars ever wrecked Detroit.
“Free Chinese models went from less than a third of all traffic in late 2025 to about two-thirds recently.”
“They steal the IP on a cell phone tower from Siemens, and then they manufacture it with cheaper labor and they sell it back for 40 cents on the dollar.”
“The best business model in history is IP theft.”
“What the Chinese automobile industry did to Detroit in about three decades, it feels like Beijing is doing to us in AI frontier models in about three months.”
why Naval deleted his calendar, ghosts everyone, and refuses to be anywhere at a specific time
Naval: "I read a blog post by Marc Andreessen where he said don't keep a schedule. And I took that to heart. So I deleted my calendar and I don't keep a schedule. I try to remember it all in my head. If I can't remember it, I'm not going to add it."
"I have a nasty email autoresponder that says, I don't check email and don't text me either. If you need to find me, you'll find me."
"My wife knows not to ever book or schedule me for anything. I'm not expected to go to couples dinners. I'm not expected to go to birthdays. I'm not expected to go to weddings. If somebody tries to rope her into having me show up, she says he makes his own decisions. You got to ask him directly."
Chris: "Are you not killing serendipity in a way?"
Naval: "No. I'm freeing up all my time. So my entire life is serendipity. I get to interact with whoever I want, whenever I want, wherever."
WE SAW IT IN ODISHA: THE PLAYBOOK NOW UNFOLDING IN KARNATAKA
Dear friends at @KA_HomeBuyers and fellow homebuyers across Karnataka,
What you are witnessing with the Karnataka Apartment Bill draft is not new. We in #Odisha lived through this exact sequence, stage by stage, until Odisha became the first state in the country to enact a fully RERA-compliant Apartment Ownership and Management Act in 2023.
1️⃣THE ERA OF DELIBERATE NEGLECT (1972–2016)
For decades, buyers believed builders knew the law and authorities would enforce it. An older, perfectly usable statute lay dormant because the government never appointed a “Competent Authority”. It was a simple, effective trick and it worked flawlessly for nearly 45 years.
2️⃣THE RERA AWAKENING (2017)
Enactment of the RE(R&D)Act in 2016-17 changed everything. Buyers suddenly started asking questions about title transfers, registration of Association, Declaration, common amenities and common area ownership. Accountability was no longer optional.
3️⃣THE POLITICAL PROMISE PHASE
Faced with this awakening, every political party in 2023 promptly added “Apartment law” to its election manifesto. Politicians knew the game perfectly well.
4️⃣THE CONVENIENT REDISCOVERY
The new elected government suddenly discovered the “merits” of the long forgotten old law. Overnight, those dormant clauses became the centrepiece of official defence in courts and in public statements.
And of course, fringe elements were fielded to challenge the validity of a KAOA and title transfer.
5️⃣THE DELAY TACTICS (SINCE 2024)
When sustained public pressure made a new law unavoidable, the familiar lines appeared on cue:
“We will look into it.” and “We are in the process of drafting…”
Each phrase bought time. The objective had quietly changed: from blocking the law TO delaying its implementation for as long as possible.
6️⃣DEVELOPERS’ STRATEGIC SILENCE
Have you noticed the complete silence from real estate developers throughout this commotion. They do not make noise. In this game, invisibility (but present) is the sharpest weapon.
💯KARNATAKA, THIS IS WHERE YOU STAND TODAY........from now on.....
7️⃣Govt. STRATEGY
The current draft contains provisions that deliberately contradict core RERA requirements (especially Section 17 on transfer of common areas), OC, SBUA, Separate Parcel. Those who drafted it know these contradictions will invite court challenges, challenges that will consume years.
8️⃣THE FUTURE CHAPTERS OF DELAY
Even if the draft is corrected under public pressure, the next acts are already scripted:
Cabinet approval ➡️ Introduction in Assembly ➡️ Withdrawal after discussion ➡️ Constitution of a Committee ➡️ Re-introduction
And then, showing extreme urgency: Ordinance versus full Assembly route
But in all this, you will definitely get the new Apartment law in the state before 2028, the next state election....they understand your desperation very well by now.
Each stage is carefully designed to gift the industry a few more years of comfortable lawlessness.
9️⃣ODISHA HAS ALREADY LIVED THIS SCRIPT
#Odisha has passed through every single one of these phases.
Homebuyers had to file 4 writs in the HC and 2 appeals in the SC before the Act was finally enacted.
Even today, multiple PILs are pending to stop the government from diluting the hard won provisions through amendments and “office order” notifications.
🔟THE STORY NEVER ENDS
The enactment of the law is not the end. It is merely the signal for the next round of dilution attempts.
👬To my brothers and sisters in Karnataka,
Your patience must be strategic and your fire must stay steady. The path is long, but it is not endless. Odisha’s experience proves that sustained, informed and united advocacy eventually forces the balance towards transparency and accountability.
The script is old. The ending is still being written by those who refuse to look away.
With solidarity,
From someone who has seen this story before. -Bimalendu Pradhan, Odisha-
“Throw Amnesty’s genocide report in the garbage.”
NGO Monitor Legal Advisor @AnneHerzberg14 explains why: the very first line of @Amnesty’s report reads, “On October 7th, Israel launched an offensive on the Gaza Strip.”
"#Pakistan is ideologically opposed to #India. Its concerns about India aren't really about security or #Kashmir. What Pakistan really wants is to stop India's rise."
And this is why Pakistan has played into the hands of #China and America.

Remember, it's not racist to be against this.
Stunning reporting from The New York Times showed that Israel groomed the staunchly anti-Israel former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad as an intelligence asset. How did that happen? My conversation with @MarkMazzettiNYT, one of the reporters who broke the story:
