Thats very biased as it is income post tax. In the French system: healthcare, childcare, cheap higher education, and more is included. A fair assessment would compare between true costs between the two.
We have created a massive K-shaped outcome across the US since early Bush tax cuts. Massive debt now accumulated without enough collected year after year, benefits out of control where we spend more on healthcare yet cant provision universal care
As India builds frontier AI rooted in its own languages and knowledge, IIT Bombay and BharatGen are proud to support and participate in Project Tapestry: an open, global consortium for nations to advance frontier AI together. BharatGen, supported by the IndiaAI Mission and the Department of Science and Technology, joins as a founding contributor with multilingual AI infrastructure built natively for India's diverse languages.
A Letter of Intent was signed on June 18th by IIT Bombay Director Prof. Shireesh Kedare, in the presence of both Deputy Directors Prof. Milind Atrey and Prof. Ravindra Gudi, and Prof. Ganesh Ramakrishnan, Founding Director at BharatGen. Project Tapestry was represented by Dr. Christopher Nguyễn, Chief Architect of Project Tapestry and AI Alliance Board Member. What India has built for its own people, it now brings to the world.

@Altimor Hey - you guys did the right thing. Sometimes tech is just an observer of the real world.
It’s the analogy of “if a tree falls in the woods”, except you’re always there to see it.
Glad you got them help. Lindy’s a great service.
Competition with China might be the best thing to happen to America since the cold war.
We’ve been leading the world for so long, but we got a bit complacent. Competition breeds excellence.
Chinese founders/investors read all they can about leading US founders. Good practice to do the same in reverse. Liang Wenfeng (DeepSeek) is one to watch.

As society advances, the more expensive research gets.
- Physics developed on blackboards. We now beam protons at 8 9’s the speed of light. And have nukes.
- Biology dissected bodies. We can now print organs. And code plagues away.
- AI needs billions. And will develop new science architecture.
This is when we need civilizational level funding - because it will define the next leading civilization.

NASA proving everything we believe about open source AI.
While Artemis II loops the 🌑moon, here's what's running on 🌎Earth:
→ @NASAAmes ExoMiner++ (open source on @HuggingFace) validated 370+ exoplanets
→ @IBM + @NASA Surya predicts solar storms threatening GPS + power grids
→ ChatGSFC (built on LibreChat) serves 7,000+ NASA staff — mission planning to lunar robotics
→ FAME: federated autonomous AI coordinating satellite constellations in orbit
None of this is proprietary black boxes.
Open. Reproducible. Inspectable.
When the stakes are astronaut safety and planetary science — you build in the open.
That's not idealism. That's engineering discipline.

@ivanburazin Disagree - for complex projects, people cross a threshold of how much they’d like to maintain.
Human nature to pay for convenience, and even greater the tax of compute/tokens to rewrite.
Entering the era of infinitely more software, we’ll need more OSS not less.
Myth: ‘Trust us - this model is too powerful to release. Only we can secure the world’s software.’
Reality: We just leaked all our source code for Claude Code days ago.
Introducing Project Glasswing: an urgent initiative to help secure the world’s most critical software.
It’s powered by our newest frontier model, Claude Mythos Preview, which can find software vulnerabilities better than all but the most skilled humans.

the fact that a caterpillar dissolves into SOUP inside the cocoon and reassembles into a butterfly using the SAME genome and we're out here acting like we understand gene expression is genuinely hilarious to me
