@Guntalk @KrisB_Brown I would look forward to hearing @KrisB_Brown on @GunTalk. We should sweeten the pot. Every time he tells a blatant lie (i.e., "Number one cause of childhood deaths, "The AR-15 shoots the most powerful rifle cartridge, etc.), he writes a check to the NRA.

@Guntalk It's just too bad she will only be in that job for the next 2 years. President Newsom's AG will reverse everything AAG Dhillon has done and will do in their first 30 days on the job.

@lkeane @NSSF Will Gary have to pay the defendant's legal costs? 27 years of lawyer and filing fees will probably blow their budget.

Microsoft just banned its own engineers from using AI.

The tool was literally costing MORE than the humans it was supposed to replace.

They lied to you about AI adoption and now the whole narrative is blowing up:

Microsoft gave thousands of engineers access to Claude Code six months ago and encouraged them to use it.

Engineers loved it and adoption exploded. But then the invoices arrived.

Token-based pricing means every query, every code review, every debugging session costs money. At scale across 100,000 engineers, the numbers became so large that Microsoft issued an internal order to cancel nearly all Claude Code licenses by end of June and force everyone onto their own cheaper tool instead.

The company that invested $5 billion in Anthropic just told its own people to stop using Anthropic's product because it costs too much.

Uber's story is even worse...

Their CTO Praveen Neppalli Naga told The Information that the budget he planned for the full year was "blown away already" by April.

Uber had rolled out Claude Code in December 2025. By March, 84% of their 5,000 engineers were using it with 70% of all committed code coming from AI systems.

Heavy users were burning $500 to $2,000 per month each. Naga himself spent $1,200 in a single two-hour demo session.

The company had even built internal leaderboards ranking engineers by how much AI they used. They literally gamified the spending and then ran out of money.

Now look at what Nvidia's own VP of applied deep learning Bryan Catanzaro said to Axios last month. Direct quote:

"For my team, the cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees."

This is a VP at the company that SELLS the chips saying that using AI is more expensive than paying humans.

Think about what this means for the entire AI narrative.

Every CEO on every earnings call for the past two years has said the same thing:

AI will make us more efficient, reduce headcount, and cut costs.

The stock market rewarded every company that said it.

Fired workers, stock goes up. Announced AI adoption, stock goes up.

But the actual companies deploying AI at scale are discovering the math doesn't work. The MORE employees use AI, the HIGHER the bill.

Goldman Sachs forecasts a 24x increase in token consumption by 2030 as companies adopt AI agents. Gartner just published a report showing that even though individual token prices will drop 90% by 2030, total enterprise AI costs will go UP because agents consume exponentially more tokens per task than basic tools.

Meta built an internal dashboard called "Claudeonomics" to track which employees use the most AI. Amazon started pushing engineers to "tokenmaxx," their internal term for consuming as many AI tokens as possible.

Both companies are spending hundreds of billions on AI infrastructure this year alone.

And Microsoft, the company that bet its entire future on AI, just told 100,000 engineers to stop using the tool they liked best because the per-token bills got out of control.

The companies building AI are telling investors it saves money. The companies using AI are finding out it costs more than the humans it was supposed to replace. And even the company that makes the chips just admitted it through its own VP.

This is the gap nobody on Wall Street is pricing in.

$725 billion in AI infrastructure spending this year across Big Tech. And the first companies to actually deploy these tools at scale are already pulling back because the economics don't work.

What do you think?

@warren_wis71140 @AnnCoulter Instead of fixing salaries to any set number, set the salary for ALL elected officials to be the median income of the people they serve. If they act to increase the median income in their district, they deserve a raise as well.

Absolute panic erupted among Palestinian UN staffers during this brutal takedown by British Colonel Richard Kemp.

He refused to play along with the disgusting false narrative that paints Israel as the evil “Islamophobic aggressor” and Palestinian-Muslim terrorists as poor “victims” of oppression.
This was a rare historic moment at the UN: one honest British colonel stood up and silenced the entire room of hypocrites who cheer Hamas’s baby-killing, rape, and murder of Jews — then scream “genocide” the second Israel defends its people.

The sheer absurdity of UN bureaucrats losing their minds when someone dares to tell the truth about Islamic terror is peak clown world. Colonel Kemp spoke facts they can’t handle.

Share this widely. The world needs more voices like his.

Musician Murphy Campbell is getting screwed over by Youtube and an AI company that's cloning her music/voice/etc... and then putting copyright claims on her ACTUAL videos and songs.

Tons of my content is used by all the AI gun channels and monetized (ironically even why my content is demonetized...) but to date they're not placing copyright claims on my content (yet). It's probably a matter of time though as Youtube seems to love/promote all these AI channels.

In a non clown world the people who run these companies would be charged with felony fraud as that's what it is but 2026 America is peak clown world so... 🤡🌎

@Guntalk Knowing how anti-gun groups manipulate government bureaucracies, the package will probably have to be marked with 3-inch high fluorescent letters saying "Firearms inside" or maybe "Steal me."
If it can be shipped insured in a plain package, I might trust it.

@VoxDemosthenes @2Aupdates You may be right, but it will take 10 years to work its way up to SCOTUS. This is the 9th circuit. It will bounce back and forth for years, with decisions telling us how wise and god-like the legislators are for giving us this holy law.
Kill it before it gets to a floor vote.

@quacknasty666 @Mrgunsngear In Hebrew, the word GOY = Nation. In Yiddish slang, it is used to refer to non-Jews.
In this context, he is saying that only people not part of the "in crowd" hang out in the lobby.

@RightPulseNewss The answer is 2.
The problem clearly states, "A couple ... went for a picnic." It does not say the entire family went.

@Guntalk @WilsonCombat You were talking about releasing another Gun Talk gun. Whatever Wilson Combat is releasing, put the GT logo on it and let us at it.
