I built a **Knowledge Graph** that connects hundreds of individual concepts across three volumes of my CHANGE JOURNEYS SMB Guidebook Series.
This article explains why I did it, how I did it, and what it does. It's amazing!

@BRICSinfo Many people on this channel seem to have a very low understanding of geography and history, or they are just bots pushing a political agenda. Research the map. Look at the history. Do your own research. This is theatre.
‼️ Anthropic was hiding a secret internal project to destructively scan every book in the world, irreversibly damaging heritage. The company spent billions of dollars to slice the spines off millions of books, even very rare ones. This means no other AI, and no human, can access this knowledge anymore.
It now markets itself as the responsible lab.
One bookseller told 404 Media his inventory is full of rare, foreign-language and low-circulation books, meaning that if they are destroyed in the process of becoming training data, they will be even harder to obtain.
Second-hand booksellers across Europe are sounding the alarm, because rare books are being destroyed. They have received random lists of thousands of titles. Books too obscure to resell at a profit. Requests arriving overnight from companies nobody in the trade has heard of.
One email came from "Nataly" at 2077AI, a Singapore company. Attached: 3,000 English titles grouped by ISBN. A 1999 geomechanics monograph. A 2018 study of laser shock peening on ceramics. A 2021 academic book on Irish folk tales.
A German dealer watched the orders arrive every night between 3am and 5am. Canadian company Zoom Books, buying systematically, titles with nothing in common. Zoom told Swiss broadcaster SRF that this is a regular recycling and trading model.
@Bitcoin_Teddy You are most likely wrong (as you influencers usual are)... months of sideways to go. Possibly going down to high $40k's before the end of the year...
Nvidia is in talks to back a $500B data centre lease for OpenAI.
A company it invests in. Which spends the money on Nvidia chips.
That's one arrow in this chart. Nvidia has announced $540B of them this year alone.
The AI boom increasingly runs on money moving in circles.
If real demand doesn't show up, this is the diagram everyone will point to.
@HedgieMarkets They do this to circumvent copyright claims. If another book exists (verso intact) that can prove that someone (dead or alive) 'owns' the content, copyright can be disputed. But the 'owner' of the last remaining copy can copy it and destroy any evidence of preexisting copyright.
@atlanticdms The attention economy is real and affecting us all in some way or another. This has really helped me break the cycle of mental enslavement and chronic anxiety. I'm genuinely happy now.
50% of U.S. GDP growth is now coming from AI investment.
Specifically, one category in the GDP report:
Computers & Peripheral Equipment.
This category includes AI servers and GPUs, and surged 72% YoY in Q1 2026.
I don't believe we've ever seen anything like this, at least in the GDP data going back to the 1950s.
This spending likely increased further in Q2 based on recent hyperscaler earnings reports, further increasing the U.S. economy's reliance on the AI buildout.
However, at some point this growth will slow.
It's not realistic to continue expecting 70% YoY AI spending growth, especially with hyperscalers like Google now negative on free cash flow.
When the spending does slow, GDP growth will be adversely impacted, and the stock market could be as well.
This chart makes you realize just how reliant the U.S. economy is on a very, very narrow slice of investment.
@nickgerli1 You are witnessing the greatest centralisation of capital in the history of economics. What do you think will happen to all of that "investment" once the tide turns and the reality no longer adds up to the hype and promises?
🚨Home Sellers now outnumber Buyers by 630,000, the largest gap ever recorded.
Thousands of people haven't paid their mortgage in over a year and they can't foreclose on the properties or it will tank the banks.
This is worse than 2008.

IoT = Internet of Trespassing? Intrusion of Technology? It's no longer an Internet of Things. That would imply connected 'Things' just communicating with each other. But they are easily hackable, and they quickly became intrusive agents of unauthorized intelligence gathering.
🦔A researcher pulled a live camera feed, a home floor plan, and the Wi-Fi password in plain text from a Shark robot vacuum he didn't own. One security certificate unlocked every other Shark vacuum. He listened to Shark's system for 24 hours, counted 1.5 million vacuums checking in, and 673,000 responded to a command he sent. He told Shark in March. They promised a fix by July 10. No patch, no response, so he published.
My Take
Your vacuum cleaner is now a bigger security risk than your front door. Someone with basic hardware skills can pull your Wi-Fi password, watch your camera, and download the layout of your home, and the company that sold it to you knew for four months and couldn't be bothered to fix it. Every week there's a new device on the list. LG monitors, Flock cameras, smart TVs, now vacuums. I'm running out of appliances.
The reason none of this gets fixed is because there's no consequence. A car manufacturer would face a mandatory recall. Shark faces a Reddit thread. Until connected devices are held to the same product safety standards as everything else people bring into their homes, companies will keep shipping cameras and microphones with barely any investment in security. If you own a Shark vacuum with a camera, unplug it tonight. That's the only fix available right now because Shark hasn't provided one.
