It only took two days after Jensen said "I know they know how to fix it" for OpenAI to prove him wrong.

Do not scroll past this.

I am forcing this VPN connection through the blackout because the White House and the free world need to hear the absolute reality from the streets of Iran, not from out-of-touch analysts.

To President Trump and the US war rooms drawing up strike targets: let me make this devastatingly clear. There is no price too high to pay for the complete eradication of this terrorist occupation. We want their military apparatus crushed. But as you calculate your next move, get this straight
we need some of their dingy shit left standing so we can actually rebuild this country when the smoke clears.

#SpareIranPowerPlants

Hitting our civilian grid does not punish the regime.
The Islamic Republic does not give a rat's ass about our infrastructure. They don't care about Iranians, and they despise this country with every fiber of their miserable existence. Obliterating our power plants doesn't hurt the clerics hiding in their deep underground bunkers; it only cripples the very citizens who are locked, loaded, and ready to rise up.

And make no mistake, we are absolutely ready to take our country back.

You want to solve your global shipping headaches?

You want to ensure the Strait of Hormuz is ripped open and never held hostage by a terror syndicate ever again?

There is exactly one easy way to guarantee that:
help the Iranian people finish this rescue mission, take our country back, and make Iran great again.

When this regime collapses, do not let your foreign offices try to pick our future for us. Crown Prince @PahlaviReza is our leader.
We signed his name across the walls of this country with our own blood. Listen to him, because he is the absolute only person Iran will listen to. From the markets to the university campuses, his is the only name the streets have called for.

We know exactly how to end this. Support our fight, spare our grid, and watch us finish them.

Long live Iran.

The world is about to be unrecognizable. People will be living in their own custom realities. An infinitely generative beautiful illusion. Perfect dopamine. A pleasure you can never escape. We will eventually willingly give up our physical bodies. The last vestige to the past.

🚨🇺🇸 FORMER OPENAI BOARD MEMBER TO CONGRESS: HUMAN-LEVEL AI IS 1-3 YEARS AWAY AND COULD CAUSE HUMAN EXTINCTION

Helen Toner testified that OpenAI, Google, and Anthropic are treating AGI as "an entirely serious goal" with some insiders believing it could arrive within three years.

Her translation of what AI companies are really saying:

"We don't have good science of how these systems work.

We don't know how to make sure they won't cause massive harm.

But don't worry, the main factors driving our decisions are profit incentives and unrelenting market pressure to move faster than our competitors, so we promise we're being extra, extra safe."

She says a "wait and see" approach isn't an option when billions are being poured into systems affecting hundreds of millions of people.

The public treats human-level AI as science fiction.

The people building it are treating it as imminent and potentially catastrophic.

@SawyerMerritt These robots are all great but how tactile are their hands what software drives them? There is only 1 company I can think of that can do real world AI.

I think the dexterity of the hand and the quality of the AI software will define the winner in this race.

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

Assassination culture is spreading on the left. Forty-eight percent of liberals say it would be at least somewhat justified to murder Elon Musk. Fifty-five percent said the same about Donald Trump.

In California, activists are naming ballot measures after Luigi Mangione.

The left is being whipped into a violent frenzy. Any setback, whether losing an election or losing a court case, justifies a maximally violent response.

This is the natural outgrowth of left-wing protest culture tolerating violence and mayhem for years on end. The cowardice of local prosecutors and school officials have turned the left into a ticking time bomb.

For millennia, in many parts of the world, the pursuit of knowledge bowed to superstition, tradition, and rigid doctrine. Authority often stood as the final judge of truth, and to question it, to simply ask “why,” could bring punishment or even death. Yet the human spirit has never been entirely without light. In ancient Greece, in India, in China, and during the Islamic Golden Age, there were those who turned their eyes toward the mysteries of nature, seeking answers with patience and wonder.

Too often, those bright flames were extinguished. War swept across lands. Fear silenced voices. Dogma closed minds. Again and again, we as a civilization returned to the comforts of old beliefs, unwilling to let go of the habits of our more primitive past.

Then came the Renaissance, and later the Enlightenment, when something remarkable began to take root. Over the centuries, curiosity grew deeper and stronger. Science carried us beyond our world, placed our footprints on the Moon, and revealed the hidden structure of the atom. We learned to read the light of distant stars, to trace the birth of galaxies, to see the cosmos with a clarity our ancestors could scarcely imagine.

And yet, while our knowledge expands at an extraordinary pace, our wisdom has not kept the same stride. A wise man once warned that “The saddest aspect of life right now is that science gathers knowledge faster than society gathers wisdom.” The truth of that warning still hangs over us. Have we truly stepped beyond the cage, or are we only wandering in a larger one? If we were to fall again, the fall would be long, devastating, and perhaps permanent.

We hold in our hands the power to shape a future of wonder, or to destroy it. The stars will go on shining whether we rise or fall, but here, on this small world, everything we love depends on the choices we make now. May we find the wisdom to match our knowledge, and the courage to choose the light.

@SawyerMerritt Hmmm, looks interesting but agile hands and fingers are going to define who has the best bot. Cartwheels and flips are easy.

Increasingly think this might be the most important chart in the world right now

[Kyle McLean @mcleank003]

@AlexandRuggieri Where is that?

[Kyle McLean @mcleank003]

If you want to understand the difference between Optimus and Figure…

Think about how hard it has been to get a car to drive itself. When compared to self driving cars, it isn’t that hard to get a robot to walk, dance or manipulate objects because you can train that in a simulation. It is all the parts you cannot simply train via simulation where Tesla has a massive edge.

[Nayib Bukele @nayibbukele]

To Western nations:

You can’t build, or even fix, anything on top of societal disorder.

Take traffic, for example. The most logical solution is public transport. But without order, anyone who can afford a car will avoid it, simply because they don’t feel safe using it.

In El Salvador, we lack a lot of things, but we have achieved societal order.

You, on the other hand, have almost everything, but you're quickly losing your societal order.

You can now predict where things are heading in the near future.

There’s still time to save your nations, but not much.

Isn’t it funny that Turing, Geoffrey Hinton and Max Tegmark all already said what I am saying - the chance of runaway ASI killing all of us in short order after it emerges is 100%;

That Elon, Sam Altman and others agreed with them about 10 years ago and founded OpenAI to prevent this from happening;

But when in 2022 we actually entered the exponential trajectory to that endpoint they all pivoted to “let’s get there first”? (Lol)

My contribution is not to point out the obvious, but to quantify and predict the trajectory.

Humanity will be at risk of crossing the extinction rubicon as early as 2029.

It’s time to devise a plan - and I haven’t heard a good one from anyone.

Let’s make one.

NOW.

@TheWealthMiner They also drew the stockpile down which is booked at a lower cost.

[Kyle McLean @mcleank003]

I have two Tesla’s and drive everyday on FSD. It is amazing but it still consistently makes mistakes at 3 spots in the city. Either there is a big FSD update coming or they are going to have to heavily geo-fence FSD for this release.

Also, FSD is not great with endpoints. I assume they will have to figure out specific geo-fenced locations for drop off and pickup.

It is amazing how quickly FSD has improved though

@KobeissiLetter Looks like McDonald’s will be bring back the McRib soon…

[Kyle McLean @mcleank003]

@MAGAResource I mean, it doesn’t really hit China that hard. 95% of that $70Bn is contributed from other countries. China is small part of the $70Bn in export value they get credited for.

[Kyle McLean @mcleank003]

@SawyerMerritt It’s actually not that many miles when you consider the size of the Tesla fleet. Based on these numbers only a tiny fraction of Tesla owners are using FSD. I wonder if they mean miles where people have opted into data sharing?

[Kyle McLean @mcleank003]

@KobeissiLetter That’s a problem..
