“In Blue Spike, LLC v. Google Inc. (N.D. Cal. 2015), the claims were similarly non-specific to machine learning. The patentee argued against the abstractness ...” #CAND ignored claim construction & validity ruling in #TXED - key term? #signalabstract https://t.co/DFYwcSVBae

And, singular focus that is not subject to the whims of oligarchs

[Matt Stoller @matthewstoller]

Because the Chinese government has strategic depth, while everything associated with America is taxed to death by increasingly low tech Wall Street/Silicon Valley con men.

[blue_spike @blue_spike]

Few, if any, foreign co.s can point to business success in China

[Matt Stoller @matthewstoller]

The auto bailout was designed to hand EV technology to China.

“G.M. also announced new agreements with SAIC to share advanced technology, including that used in the Chevy Volt, and promised China would become “one of the first” markets for the Volt.”

And, W brought China into WIPO without much oversight while #BigTech lobbied to hobble American patents - China strengthened its patent system but kept folks like Jack Ma in check

[Matt Stoller @matthewstoller]

In thee 2010s China cracked down on their big tech firms, breaking them apart and regulating them harshly. The U.S. coddled them with lax antitrust and tax rules.

Can we finally admit the U.S. regulatory model has led to Chinese dominance?

[blue_spike @blue_spike]

@thomasunise @signulll They paid billions to train Chinese. This is part of the ROI

[Rep. Andrew Clyde @Rep_Clyde]

There’s 80,000+ Flock cameras across the U.S.

These surveillance devices perform 20 BILLION license plate scans per month, tracking your every move.

No warrant. No judge. No accountability.

This is a clear violation of our Fourth Amendment rights.

We must STOP THE FLOCK.

This was predetermined by the purposeful success at weakening American patents & Inventors #AIA #Alice #OilStates #eBay

[Gary Marcus @GaryMarcus]

We are pretty screwed with respect to China and LLMs, but it shouldn’t come as a surprise.

I have been trying to warn everyone for a long time. In January 2025 for example, I warned that:

•  the US would not achieve a decisive victory in AI over China if they continued to focus largely on LLMs

• that we would instead converge on a tie

• that the lack of a technical moat would mean that companies like OpenAI would remain unprofitable.

• that Nvidia would be vulnerable

• that the CHIPS act would backfire, without doing much to hold China back

• that models will continue to get more efficient and less expensive, but that hallucinations and reliability problems will persist.

• that racing endlessly around LLMs would sap resources that could instead go into developing more original ideas.

I wish more people had listened.

[blue_spike @blue_spike]

And, hadn’t allowed #BigTech & activist judges to distort what is eligible for patentability - China and Europe aren’t as bad to their innovators

[Matt Stoller @matthewstoller]

Our top AI firms are holding back innovation, not promoting it. If we had broken up Google and forced open sourcing we would have far fewer data centers and much better AI.

Basically Lina Khan is correct.

@BBKogan He was / is a football coach. Maybe his Florida-based opinion should not be amplified. The Press is supposed to be the 4th Estate

Remarkable story here: Iran seems to have used a well-known vulnerability in cell networks to track U.S. military forces during the war. https://t.co/wXaZOweXkH

Insufferable 💩

[Scientific American @sciam]

Hundreds of thousands of scientists, including Nobel laureates, warn that changes to the way federal grants are approved would greatly damage American science

@BrizaFridata @AdamParkhomenko Argue the Kentucky Constitution. Remarkable that Ds won’t protect what ultimately matters - “We The People”. Let them “lawfare” it

@RheinAmacher @MikeNellis @POTUS Isn’t he though 🤔

We were told that televisions did not surveil their consumers despite the company being fined by a federal agency for “surveilling their consumers”

[Joe Rogan Podcast News @joeroganhq]

Aaron Rodgers on the government: "Get off my computer get off my cameras, get off my ring camera, take down all this stupid f*ck. They're inching closer to being 1984 where they have some sort of TV set in your house that watches you."

Immigrants. Illegal immigrants telling Americans what America should be

[Jim Stewartson, Decelerationist 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇺🇸 @jimstewartson]

The general manager of Thiel Capital and Elon Musk agree that people should be “willing to kill or die” to prevent immigrants from coming to America.

These people are truly obsessed with death. They want a lot of it. We cannot pretend otherwise.

@davidgmillsatty @Angela52830602 @BadAss6360 And, because of FDR we got Nixon & Reagan? Dummy.

Killed the Inventors first

[julie k. brown @jkbjournalist]

Consumers be damned. This will drive up prices for years to come.

[blue_spike @blue_spike]

That’s “innovation” when the Courts & SCOTUS, specifically, removed the licensing market (#eBay) - easier to surveil users & cause folks to devalue their own property with minimum returns to them (@uber @lyft @Airbnb etc)

[Alan Fisher @alanthefisher]

Incredible that we wasted the 2000s-2010s low interest free money phase of the US economy completely on making a million versions of Doordash instead of building useful infrastructure
