That’s the problem with humans. They just sit around hoping that someone will fix things.
But no one will. No one cares. The universe is…infinite and chaotic and cold.
And there has never been a plan.
At least not till now. (“/” from PoI)

Mısır Tarım Bakanlığı sokak köpekleri ve başıboş hayvanların yönetimi için toplu itlafı yasaklayan ve aşılamayı ön plana çıkaran yeni bir birleşik ulusal strateji uygulamaya koydu. Sokak hayvanlarına karşı zehir kullanımı, toplu itlaf ve yetkisiz yer değiştirmeler tamamen yasaklandı. Bu kuralları ihlal edenler hakkında derhal yasal işlem başlatılıyor. Kuduz aşısı ve kısırlaştırma öncelikli olmak üzere sorunun hızlıca kontrol altına alınması amacıyla 180 günlük özel bir mücadele planı başlatıldı. Bu mücadele Bakanlıklar, yerel yönetimler ve sivil toplum kuruluşlarının ortak koordinasyonuyla yürütülüyor. Mısır öldürmek yerine yaşatmayı seçmiş.

Yunanistan, 2012.

Ülke batmış, işsizlik %27, gençlerde %58. Maaşlar yarıya düşmüş, IMF kapıda.

Atina'nın her köşesinde kafeler tıklım tıklım.

Yunan siyasetçiler bunu gösterip "hangi kriz?" dedi. Halk da inandı, bir süreliğine.

Teşhis sonra konuldu: Café Economy.

Ev alamayan, iş bulamayan, birikim yapamayan insan son lüksüne sarılıyor.

Bir kahve.

Krizde büyük harcama durur, küçük lüks artar.

Kafede oturan 50 kişiyi görürsün. Evde ekmek arası patates yiyen milyonları görmezsin.

Dolu kafe refahın değil, krizin vitrinidir.

Yunanistan bunu 10 yıl geç anladı.

This is the U.S. AI industry begging Trump for protectionism because U.S. companies can't compete with super-smart Chinese engineers.

So Trump will try to cut off Americans from the best AI in the world, and that will cement America's reputation for being the dumbest country in the world, where we will only have access to old, stupid, heavily censored and guardrailed AI models, while the rest of the world will leap ahead.

The West is laughing at this map. They shouldn’t be.

People look at the founding members of the World AI Cooperation Organization and only see developing countries🤦‍♀️

I look at the map and see something completely different.

Look at the demographics, energy, natural resources, manufacturing capacity, future data generation.

These are the countries that have collectively decided they do not want to become consumers of AI built somewhere else.

Wow. What a powerful statement.

For decades, the world’s biggest geopolitical institutions were built around military alliances, trade agreements, or financial systems.

AI is creating an entirely new layer of global influence.

🤜 Who sets the standards?
🤜 Who owns the infrastructure?
🤜 Who trains the talent?
🤜 Who builds the compute?
🤜 Who controls the data pipelines?

Those countries will shape the next generation of the global economy.

Many critics dismiss this organization because several founding members are lower-income economies.

That completely misses the point.

Time and again, today’s developing economies are tomorrow’s growth markets. These countries represent hundreds of millions of people who are rapidly digitizing.

Many are building digital infrastructure for the first time, allowing them to leapfrog older technologies rather than replacing decades of legacy systems.

If you think, AI adoption is only about GDP, uh you’re up for a brutal realization. It is also about population, infrastructure, energy, connectivity, education, and political willingness to invest.

China understands this exceptionally well.

China is investing simultaneously in semiconductors, renewable energy, robotics, cloud computing, data centres, education, industrial automation, and international AI cooperation.

It is systems thinking.

The countries that coordinate around standards, talent, infrastructure, compute, and applications today will have enormous influence over how AI develops during the next two decades.

Dismissing this organization because some members are poor is complacency.

Bu dansı girişte söyledim ya; sağ olsunlar, bizi terbiye edecek, terbiyemizi koruyacak bir yayıncılık anlayışı sergilemişler. Biz biraz bozulmaya neden olmuş olabiliriz ama neyse ki onu yeniden tedavi edecek, tamir edecek oldukça geniş imkânlara sahipler.

20 Temmuz 1936, Montrö Boğazlar Sözleşmesi imzalandı.

“Uluslararası boğazların hiçbirinde, Montrö’de Türkiye’nin sahip olduğu nitelikte yetkilere hiçbir kıyı devleti sahip değildir.”

Türkiye Cumhuriyeti, Montrö ile Boğazlarda "tam egemenlik" kurmuştur.

Montrö, Boğazlardaki Türk kilididir.

Anthropic had the biggest miscalculation in AI 2026:
1. They underestimated the progress others made, and thought they can win forever.
2. Thus, they assumed their customers will continue to tolerate their terrible policies (pricing, random usage limits, bad data retention, arbitrary access removal etc.) and cocky PR because they are AGI. They didn't invest in building customer trust because they thought they didn't need to.
3. They also assumed by simply painting open-weight as dangerous and unsafe, they can persuade enterprises to not touch them and persuade government to ban them.
4. They knew user data in Claude Code is how they win, yet their bad user policy/pricing gave aways their already-sticky users to Codex/Grok/etc, enabling others to capture equally valuable user data on their own.
5. Meanwhile, they didn't invest enough in owning their compute, instead putting itself in a vulnerable position at the mercy of @elonmusk, their competitor.

When a strong open-weight provider catches up(@thinkymachines, Kimi, GLM etc.), people suddenly realized Claude has 1. no pricing advantage 2. no compute advantage 3. no branding advantage (already broke enterprise trust, pissed off prosumers, and consumers don't know Claude exists)
Anthropic needs some serious strategy pivots. The status quo won't work at all for them. They still have the highest caliber talents, so I am still hopefully they will change for the better. But simply a better model than Fable isn't going to be enough to turn things around IMO.

A college student just killed the biggest advantage politicians have ever had. The gap between the lie and the fact-check.

He built a Chrome extension called InTruth. It listens to any live speech, debate, or interview.

Transcribes every word. And checks every claim against real sources in real time. Before the speaker even finishes the sentence.

It works on debates. Press conferences. Town halls. Interviews. Anything with someone talking on video. The fact-check shows up on your screen while they're still talking.

Until now, fact-checking happened hours or days later. By then the clip has been shared, the headline has been written, and the damage is done. Nobody reads the correction.

InTruth closes that gap to seconds. The claim and the fact-check exist in the same moment.

A college student, a Chrome extension, and an AI model just did what entire newsrooms couldn't figure out for decades.

Barbaros Şansal’dan muazzam bir tespit:

“‘Bazı şeyler kapıya gelmeden tedbir alınmıyor. Mesela Türkiye su fakiri haline gelmeye başladı. Yüzlerce gölümüz kurudu.

Ben Anadolu üzerinde sürekli uçuyorum Kıbrıs’tan gelip giderken. En son Eğirdir Gölü’nün haline acıdım. İkiye bölünmüş göl, yok. O madenler, dağ tepe kalmamış.”

“‘Siz bir Çanakkale Kirazlı beldesine, barajın arka tarafına Amanos’a bir çıksanıza, görsenize oraları. Yağmalanan bir coğrafyayla karşı karşıyayız.””
