If you ignore this as a man with an IQ above 95 you'll be profoundly miserable.

You need to voluntarily be heroic mission-maxing.

@tillmatthis Have you tried Tidal?

@beffjezos "Climate Best by Government Test" is the motto of Redwood City

It seems like Perplexity's number one ICP are people who refuse to pay for it.

What I really mean is we're going to need a lot more "weird".

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

If technological competency is universal and available, we're going to need a lot more esoterica to keep the mind and hands busy.

A small culinary trick that I find myself using more often than expected is knowing that most savory dishes need a little acid for the flavors to come forth. Keller's trick is to have a small squeeze bottle of white wine vinegar - I tend to use rice more often. Just a few drops!

Most creative outputs are bad - vast majority.

@labgolfputters There is almost a horror to a product like this. Someone decided it would be a good use of time and resources to create this. The world is beset with problems and this helps zero.

The future of AI is Opensource.

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

What is it? Yes.
Who is it? Does it matter?
Is it good? Oh yeah.

Alex is 100% right to call out the frontier labs. Replace your entire workforce with Anthropic/OpenAI models and you no longer own your company, they do. The “weights” are trained on stolen IP, trade secrets, and human knowledge at scale. It’s not augmentation, it’s transfer of ownership.

This isn’t sustainable. The hype machine is running on vapor, massive energy bills, and future lawsuits. Real value is in applied, governed AI with data control (Palantir’s lane), not renting god-mode models that commoditize your edge.

The correction is coming. Position accordingly.

What’s your take?

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

@Polymarket That's twice as much as the entire music industry.

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

@dee_bosa It's a bad idea because OAI is a terrible business. The voters shouldn't invest in a company with no profit horizon this decade. Why should the voter take the risk?

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

@Polymarket The upside is everyone building on OSS.

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

Every business is scared of partnering with another company that steals all of your secrets.

What no one could imagine is a company so nefarious that your employees unwittingly deed it all of your most important data.

Any advantage you had is now GONE.

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

@SaiMandhan Wrong. The only organization that has the context to run the AI of an organization is the organization.

[Pete Shimshock @peteshimshock]

@FirstSquawk Good. More opportunity for differentiation. They couldn't be more dissimilar but looks like Microsoft will learn the hard way.
