Great interview with our CFO @thefriley. She gave our team a nice shout-out, citing some of our recent work that finds Azerbaijani and Kazakh as the fastest growing languages on ChatGPT. Other interesting points on how financial markets will value AI in the long-run, OAI's strategy, and forecasting the demand for compute.
18 months ago I promised my dad that if he recovered from Prostate Cancer, we’d go on a UCL away day. 5th November 2025, we are here 💙

Tofig Aliyev from Azerbaijan did the world’s first full “full at the World Games in Spain.
A “full” “full” is a triple backflip with a 360° twist in each somersault.

Will Liverpool, Real Madrid or PSG come to Azerbaijan❓👀
Deja Vu. They are never happy. For some reason they convinced themselves that only they can determine a peace treaty despite lacking any influence and relying on a narrow circle of ideologically partisan individuals who number just a few dozen and mainly live outside the region. No doubt they are already eagerly scrambling to protect their funding and seek even more.
Instead, it is time to urgently revamp the Track 1 environment and enhance Track 1.5. The decisions, however, will always be made at the top so we should also expect the powers that be to become more transparent as the process nears it formal conclusion in the next year or two. Non-politicised people-to-people contact away from closed circles will also be vital.
Большая благодарность жителям Актау, приносящим цветы к посольству Азербайджана и,особенно, сдающим кровь для выживших💔
Но больше всего хочется отдать дань уважения экипажу.Пилоты увели борт от жилой застройки и до последней секунды героически боролись за жизни 67 человек. #Azal
Today, I am reaching out to you to denounce the unjust detention of Farid Mehralizada, an economist and civil society activist, who has been imprisoned for his courage in openly criticizing the policies of the Azerbaijani government.
Farid was arrested on May 30, 2024, just before the @COP29_AZ Climate Summit, which is set to take place in Baku. He was brutally taken in central #Baku by plain-clothed men, who placed a bag over his head. Later, his apartment was raided by the police, and all of his equipment was confiscated. Without concrete evidence, he was charged with smuggling in connection to the Abzas Media case, a clear maneuver to silence one of the most critical voices in public discourse.
Farid has consistently provided sharp and insightful analyses of #Azerbaijan’s socio-economic conditions, challenging the country’s growing censorship and restrictions on freedom of expression. His critiques on key issues such as social welfare, education, and climate change made him a target of the regime.
As an artist, I feel compelled to amplify Farid’s voice and call for his immediate release. It is unacceptable for someone to be imprisoned for exercising their right to free expression. I urge you all to join in this call for justice and to bring attention to his situation, as freedom of expression is a right for all of us.
