[Business @XBusiness]

A joint statement from the WFA and X Corp.

Today the World Federation of Advertisers (WFA) and X Corp. are putting the litigation involving the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) behind them. This resets the relationship between the two organizations.

WFA reiterates its commitment to freedom of speech, a principle first included in WFA’s founding constitution back in 1953, and a principle it shares with X.

On August 9, 2024, WFA discontinued GARM. WFA will not form or restart GARM or a similar initiative.

WFA and X are fully aligned in the view that brands, platforms and consumers will all benefit from brand-safety innovation.

SpaceXAI has built the best voice model I’ve ever used

Once you experience how precisely Grok Voice recognizes speech and understands what you mean, it’s hard to go back

The best part of Think Fast 2.0 is that it reasons in parallel and begins taking action while it is still talking to you...without adding any latency

“If I died knowing that I did what was right or did my best to do what was right and even If in the history books they said I did wrong, I would still feel okay about that, I care about the reality of goodness and not the perception of it”

Jensen Huang was asked about the people technology left behind. He didn't offer a plan. He said the gap already closed.

Huang: "All of a sudden artificial intelligence closed that technology divide."

That divide was never a gap in ability. It was a language requirement.

Huang: "Anybody could be a software programmer now."

Every tool we ever built charged admission, and the price was always a language. The press needed literacy. The engine needed the manual. The computer needed code.

Every tool in history had the same shape. The human moved toward the machine, compressed into a form it could parse. Whoever couldn't compress stayed outside.

Code was always a human speaking machine. Seventy years of people translating themselves down into something a processor would accept.

It just learned to speak back. Nothing has ever moved in that direction before.

So we sorted people by the toll and pretended we were sorting by mind. The ones who paid became skilled. Everyone else became unskilled, a word that has never once described a real person. It only meant fluent in nothing the market was buying.

Huang: "Everybody who are really gifted at their craft but maybe they don't know how to scale themselves with technology, they now have AI to help scale them."

The best cook in a village of four thousand died the best cook in a village of four thousand. Not from a shortage of ability, but from a second requirement that had nothing to do with the first.

Go back far enough in your own family and there is someone who was extraordinary at something. The world never found out. Neither did they.

Ability was never distributed by geography. Access was, and access is the only thing that got recorded.

Every system you move through in a day was built by the narrow band who could speak to a machine. Not the best ideas anyone had. The ideas that survived translation.

We have never once seen what the rest of the species would have made.

The scarcity was never in the talent. It was in the distance between holding it and reaching anyone. That distance was the product the technology industry sold.

Huang: "They're welcomed into the world's economy, not burdened by technology anymore because AI made that possible."

Burdened. Technology sold itself as leverage for a century, and the man supplying the whole industry just called it a weight. A developer you couldn't afford. A site that broke on a Sunday with no one to call.

You paid the technology industry for permission to be findable.

Nobody on earth got smarter this decade. The door stopped asking for a password.

Huang: "Five years from now, it is likely that we're all going to be more gainfully employed. The economy is gonna be more productive."

He grounds that in the labor shortage already on the books. Open work with nobody there to do it, inside an economy panicking about a machine that takes work away.

Both cannot be true. The fear says there won't be enough work for us. The ledger says there aren't enough of us for the work.

Every time a tool stopped requiring a specialist, the specialist lost a monopoly and everyone else gained a century. Writing left the scribes. The press left the church. The computer left the lab.

The barrier was also a shelter. Everyone left outside got to keep the version of themselves that was never tested.

For most of history that was a mercy. The wall did the refusing, so you never had to hear it from anyone else.

The wall is gone. Now you find out.

Nothing about you changed. The requirement did.

For the first time, the only thing between what you can do and who it reaches is whether you do it.

Neuralink just shared that participants living with paralysis are now controlling a powered wheelchair using nothing but their thoughts. No joystick. Just intention.
Next up Neuralink will likely connect these individuals to an Optimus robot where they get complete independence, effectively telepresense – seeing and hearing, and ambulating through a robot. The singularity is really hear!

An illegal migrant has been sent to prison after turning up at a Heywood school armed with a hammer, hatchet and kitchen knife.

A South Sudanese national named Both Douk Deng.

He was stopped at the school with a hammer, hatcher, seven-inch kitchen knife, and jerry can containing half a litre of petrol.

I dread to think - it would have been a pure massacre.

How much more of this do we have to tolerate?

Are we going to gamble with the lives of British children to accommodate these animals?

On day one of a Restore Britain Government, every single of these scumbags who has broken into our country will be detained, and they will be deported.

ENOUGH is ENOUGH.

Americans buried parents alone. Children lost years of childhood. Families watched businesses they had built over a lifetime disappear.

And while the country suffered, Anthony Fauci was writing in his diary about becoming “the most famous and talked about person in the country” and marveling that his fame was “explosive and really unimaginable.”

There was no camera he couldn’t find. No interview he couldn’t give. No American life he wouldn’t micromanage.

He said one thing to the public, and would write the opposite in his diary.

Today, when the country finally demanded answers, the man who never stopped talking suddenly went silent.

What's mind-blowing is Starship is the size of a 35-story high-rise.
