BREAKING: @NYCMayor just announced COGE (Commission of Government Efficiency) and he takes a shot at Elon Musk in the process.
"COGE, COGE, yes. Now, Elon Musk manipulated the fact that so many people across this country want to see a government that is more efficient. He used that as a justification to simply slash and burn so much of the services that Americans rely on. What we are speaking about is a sincere fulfillment of a vision that ensures that city government is operating with the same level of focus that a working class New Yorker is when they're trying to balance their bills. And that means looking at the processes we have, that means looking at the procedures of city government, and that means looking at anything we can do to deliver a more efficient and more excellent government... It's just the name and what it should have been. I think government efficiency, these are words that somehow have been understood as if they are Republican priorities when in fact they are the priorities of anyone who believes in the public sector. And yet Elon Musk took that language and used it to cut as many jobs that were as critical as possible for so many of the neediest people across the country and across the world. Ours is going to be a focus on actually delivering efficiency, not as a byword for cutting services, but actually a sincere commitment to efficiency."

We’ve automated every single thing we can @every with AI agents.
And yet there’s way more human work to do than ever. We’ve gone from 4 -> 30 human employees since GPT-3.
I wrote a report on the structural reasons: how AI makes expert competence cheap, why that drives up demand for experts, and why the dynamic only intensifies as we approach AGI.

We should federally tax Tokens at the Provider level.
Not a lot. Less than 50c per million tokens.
It will accomplish 4 things (at least )
1. It will push the big AI players to optimize tokenization, caching , routing and localization
Which will
2. Reduce energy usage. Saving them in energy costs more than what they paid in tax and reducing strain created by the growth in energy consumption
Which will
3. Generate maybe 10 billion dollars a year to start, but over the next ten years could grow 30x to 100x
Which will
4. Create a source of funding to pay down the federal debt or deploy, in response to the things AI brings that we don’t expect or don’t like
At some point the models will pass it on to customers. Of course. That’s ok. Customers will have the ability to choose between providers. Or to do everything using open source models locally.
Thoughts ?
The robot that wakes you up, makes breakfast, and cooks dinner.
Reflex Robotics built something that skips the humanoid aesthetic entirely and just works.
That’s chimp behavior chud… running off on the bill. U ordered $400 of food u gluttonous clown.. pay ur tab u low iq bum. U didn’t get wrongly arrested.. you committed theft like a low level thug. You deserved to be arrested. Stop chimping out !!
🚨🇺🇸 ChudTheBuilder just shot a man and caught a bullet in his own arm outside a Tennessee courthouse
He claims self-defense… and he’s explaining it LIVE on stream to the cops.
He gets a ballroom. An Arch. A new reflecting pool. 10 billion directly into his pocket from taxpayers. Billions from special interests seeking favors and pardons.
What has America gotten? Tariffs, a new war, higher gas prices, inflation.
Truly a golden age.
I told you this was the plan. Sue them for $10 billion, have them say no but we'll give you X amount ($10 million? 100 million?) This isnt an administration it's a criminal cartel. Most corrupt president of all time and it's not even close. This is just flat robbery of American taxpayers.
