@Jason@OpenAI@xai@Gemini@claudeai On two phones today we asked ChatGPT if Charlie Kirk was dead - one said yes, one said no - then both continued to argue the side it took even after we told it to search the news again, and again. Very bizzare
You morons complaining about DOGE turning off the money furnace for 16 weeks are going to be in for a world of hurt when these lunatics dump another 10T onto the national debt
You didn’t know how good we had it for a brief moment in time
@xAI has acquired @X in an all-stock transaction. The combination values xAI at $80 billion and X at $33 billion ($45B less $12B debt).
Since its founding two years ago, xAI has rapidly become one of the leading AI labs in the world, building models and data centers at unprecedented speed and scale.
X is the digital town square where more than 600M active users go to find the real-time source of ground truth and, in the last two years, has been transformed into one of the most efficient companies in the world, positioning it to deliver scalable future growth.
xAI and X’s futures are intertwined. Today, we officially take the step to combine the data, models, compute, distribution and talent. This combination will unlock immense potential by blending xAI’s advanced AI capability and expertise with X’s massive reach. The combined company will deliver smarter, more meaningful experiences to billions of people while staying true to our core mission of seeking truth and advancing knowledge. This will allow us to build a platform that doesn’t just reflect the world but actively accelerates human progress.
I would like to recognize the hardcore dedication of everyone at xAI and X that has brought us to this point. This is just the beginning.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support.
Dan Quinn said, "Sometimes as coaches and leaders, you have to tell them the things they don't want to hear."
"I'm comfortable doing that because they know I come from a place that I care about them, I love them, and I want the best for them."
As players, be grateful when a coach tells you the truth because it shows you they care.
They tell you the truth because they believe in you and your potential.
• They want what's best for you.
• They care about you as a person.
• They see what you're capable of, even when you don't.
Great leaders hold you accountable because they know it's the only way to help you grow into your best self.
It means telling the hard truths while showing empathy and belief in your potential.
Great Coaches Balance 3 Things:
1. Caring for you - Great coaches want what's best for you. They care for you as a person and believe in you and your potential. This is why they hold you to a high standard - they see what you can become, even when you don’t yet.
2. Having high standards - High standards set expectations. It creates clarity and direction about what habits and actions are expected. Great coaches set the bar high because they want the best for you, not because it’s easy. When someone believes in you enough to expect greatness, it inspires you to rise to the challenge.
3. Pushing you to grow before your comfort zone - Growth doesn’t happen without discomfort, and this is where development starts. Great coaches look to challenge you and develop you over time. This means expecting challenges, facing adversity, and refusing to accept the status quo.
Bottom Line: People don't care how much you know until they know how much you care. Leadership will always be a relationship business.
The Fonz was a nail bitter. The team of Amburgey/B.Thomas (37) squeaked out a victory over Shields/Planck (36) by a single point in the stableford scoring event today @wcc1916@1916WCC The Graham bros finished third with 33 points. Allan Henry & Todd Howard finished 4th with 32.
Sports betting is by far the most socially unacceptable form of gambling:
1) Tell people you're an options trader (e.g. betting on stock prices), they think you're smart
2) Tell people you bet on sports, they think you have a problem
& nobody has a logical reason as to why...
UDisc is by far the best app out there right now, but with price changes like this the door is open for a competitor to take some serious market share with a decent app and a $5 annual plan like the good ol’ days
