The Justice Department just told French law enforcement authorities it wouldnโt facilitate their efforts to investigate @X. @TheJusticeDept accused France of abusing its criminal justice system to target an American company and censor free speech โ in clear violation of the First Amendment. โThis investigation seeks to use the criminal legal system in France to regulate a public square for the free expression of ideas and opinions in a manner contrary to the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.โ
Americans have a natural tendency to think of our country as unitary, with states as mere administrative boundaries. But the ethnic and cultural differences within the USA are staggering, greater than between many European countries. New article by @whatifalthist (link below): https://t.co/Ehy3yf6yK4
@elonmusk @openclaw This is so awesome. People have no idea how easy it is to create apps now with AI. If an idiot like me can create https://t.co/kiuZ7QXLzb all based on X anyone can. I could show anyone how to build apps now.

Anthropicโs CEO keeps talking about AI wiping out jobs because heโs trying to IPO this year. If he positions Claude as armageddon for jobs, his TAM becomes โall white-collar human labor,โ not just AI agents or SaaS. Itโs completely self-interested. All the concerns heโs expressing about job disruptions are fake. Itโs a marketing gambit to create hype and FOMO among the people he needs more than anyone else this year: institutional investors like BlackRock, Fidelity, pension funds, and sovereign wealth funds. If these investors pay for tickets on the hype trainโif he can make them believe that AI will eliminate half of white-collar jobs, with Anthropic, as the dominant leader in enterprise AI, positioned to capture the surplus marginโthe IPO will be oversubscribed and Anthropic can raise more funds for the company at a higher valuation. But Dario (or, at least, his bankers) knows that these investors are more fiscally disciplined than they used to be. A lot of them got burned during Covid SPAC-mania and donโt want to risk it again. Theyโre going to challenge Anthropic about whether it will ever get to sustainably high gross margins, or if its arms race with OpenAI will lead to kilowatt-hours permanently suppressing gross margins. Theyโre going to ask pointed questions about Anthropicโs massive capex and whether it will ever generate accretive ROIC. And Dario might not have the answers theyโre looking for. So thatโs whyโto answer Austenโs smart questionโyou keep seeing Dario in the news and the podcast circuit, spreading doom and gloom about widespread job loss. Itโs not to make you afraid of losing your job. Itโs to get Wall Street afraid of missing out on his IPO.
Honest question: Why does he keep saying this?
@Xclusiv I might have told @ElonMusk a bit of data about how much it costs to build https://t.co/kiuZ7QXLzb AWESOME!
This is how I built this: https://t.co/kiuZ7QXLzb (completely built off of my lists at https://t.co/fasUz7PuHq which are the most complete of AI industry).

Can we trust AI for fashion advice? ๐๐ Saw a guy asking AI about his outfitโฆ (he was wearing the smallest hat Iโve ever seen ๐งข๐ญ) And the AI replied: ๐ โIf you like it, thatโs what matters the most.โ โ This is exactly where we are with AI right now. It doesnโt judge. It doesnโt push back. It doesnโt say: โbroโฆ that hat is NOT itโ ๐ โ AI optimizes for politeness and agreement not always for truth or taste โ Which raises a bigger question: ๐ Do we want AI to validate usโฆ or challenge us? โ Because if AI always agreesโฆ we might end up confidently making very questionable decisions ๐ โ @huskirl โค๏ธ๐ Curious what you think ๐
What happens when you put competing neural networks in a Petri Dish and start changing the rules while they adapt? Last year we released Petri Dish NCA, where neural nets are the organisms that learn during simulation. Today we're releasing Digital Ecosystems: a browser-based platform for interactive artificial life research. The setup: several small CNNs share a 2D grid, each seeing only a 3x3 neighborhood. No global plan. They compete for territory by attacking neighbours and defending against incoming attacks, learning via gradient descent online while the simulation runs. What we didn't expect was the role of the learning itself. Gradient descent isn't just optimising each species' strategy. Instead, it acts to stabilize the whole system during simulation. Species that overextend get pushed back by the loss. Species that stagnate get nudged to grow. This means you can push parameters toward edge-of-chaos regimes: a zone characterised by emergent complexity. Letting the neural networks learn acts to hold the complex system together while you explore and interact. The platform lets you steer all of this interactively. You can draw walls to create niches, erase parts of the system online, and tune 40+ system parameters to explore the most interesting configurations. We find it mesmerizing to watch species carve out territories and reorganise when you perturb them. Everything runs client-side in your browser, no install needed.

The single greatest thing I did for my screen time was get a @thetinypod. It's an iPod case for your Apple Watch. Take calls, listen to music, get GPS directions The only thing you can't do is mindlessly scroll the internet. Actually genius https://t.co/1kvEUxqc77

Oh look! Anthropic's entire "we are delaying Mythos" narrative was marketing hogwash. Kudos to FT for confirming what was obvious. Anthropic simply doesn't have the compute. FT: "Multiple people with knowledge of the matter suggested Anthropic was holding back from a wider release until it could reliably serve the model to customers."
Everyone should read what's below. This is why actually knowing your stuff instead of naively regurgitating a particular startup's marketing propaganda bullet points is important. I've also included a screenshot of my Substack writeup of Nvidia's Bill Dally and Google's Jeff Dea
Anthropicโs Mythos is being positioned as a highly advanced, potentially risky model. While the company warns it may be too powerful for public release, some experts argue the concerns should be taken seriously but not overstated. The situation reflects a familiar pattern. Breakthroughs in AI often come with both real risks and amplified narratives around them. https://t.co/7xmADAltal @stokel @sciam

With my infinite agent canvas, I can spin up more designs that build on the others. You can imagine just generating and editing all kinds of artifacts with a similar theme in a matter of minutes. Not the best example below, but I think it communicates the vision here. https://t.co/pa1yiRDgsR
STARLINK: SpaceX Starlink Government & Enterprise for Latin America and the Caribbean, Juan David Vรฉlez (@JuanDaVelez); and Starlink Sr. Director of Market Development, Jonathan Kleinman (@jonathankleinma), presented a comprehensive connectivity proposal to Honduras President Nasry Asfura. The Honduran government is promoting an alliance with SpaceX to connect 8,000 schools before the end of the 2026 school year! More Starlink news in the ELON CHRON below!

I prefer my design tool to be more closely integrated with where my agents work. I spent a few hours building my own design tool (inspired by Claude Design) inside my orchestrator. I can use this with Codex, Claude, or any model. Opus 4.7 works best for now. Doing more tests. https://t.co/zcfk5KyG2L

Google DeepMind researcher argues that LLMs can never be conscious, not in 10 years or 100 years. "Expecting an algorithmic description to instantiate the quality it maps is like expecting the mathematical formula of gravity to physically exert weight." https://t.co/J7KWRZ48JE
Platforms are starting to verify something we once took for granted, being human. Apps like Tinder and Zoom are introducing eye-scanning โproof of humanityโ as AI-generated identities become harder to detect. It marks a shift. In the AI era, trust may begin with proving you are real. https://t.co/46P5JcnWPp @bbcnews
