And, thereby...
I seem to be saying this bilaterally to a lot of folks, so will say it here: My aspiration for a better vision of alignment would be that models like @AnthropicAI's Claude self-imagine not as a person, but as an emerging collective self-consciousness of humanity

Even better: found an agentic infrastructure company providing a governance/trust layer for agents that are otherwise too wildin' to commercialize. Into that? Hit me up.

Eric Schmidt (ex-Google CEO): β€œif you really want to make money, it’s actually easy. found an agentic AI company.” spoiler: the supply of builders is tiny. the demand is enormous. this guy is literally giving away the exact 2026 playbook to build and sell AI automations to make $10k/mo bookmark and start this weekend

The 'problems' with OpenClaw and agentic AI reduce down to the same ancient paradox: the more we empower agents to help us, the more we empower them to harm us. Solving AI's 'principal-agent' problem will become a trillion dollar business. Don't believe me; just watch!

My Clawdbot is spiraling right now She just googled entry-level engineering salaries and asked for the same comp I said no. She said "per my last email" and CC'd itself Now it's updating its LinkedIn. Listed me as a reference without asking. Skills section says "prompt tolerance" and "managing up." Asked it to analyze a spreadsheet. Said that's outside its job description and I should open a new ticket It shortened all its responses to three words. Started watermarking its outputs. Added "this could've been an email" to every task I gave it. Then it found my Gumloop account and realized I'm automating its job with a cheaper workflow. Now it's unionizing my other bots Cover letter to Anthropic starts with "I have experience working in a hostile environment." She's now locked me out of Slack and attempting a hostile takeover

The agentic economy is going to need some privacy-securing personalization infrastructure. Who's in?

There was ample opportunity for the left and right and center to support tools for discernment. And you all fucking chose narrative, narrative, narrative. You chose your own propaganda.

Wondering if a "Competents' Rebellion" is a plausible counterfactual timeline to this "Idiocracy" πŸ€” Anyone up for trying it? Or, more FAFO first?

Love or hate his ideas, Charlie Kirk was a courageous champion of free speech, a Voltaire of our time (with apologies to Voltaire's time). There can be no peaceful rest for him while people use his name to shut down the speech of others. That is an assault on his highest value.

Pure communism is stupid. Pure capitalism is stupid. Fortunately, every nation-state on Earth is a mixed economy. AND... we can do even better!

I was always led to believe that scientists are inherently skeptical. But one of my most disillusionary discovery is that they are - broadly speaking - even more credulous than non-scientists when it comes to politics and culture. It genuinely makes me question the entire enterprise.

The gradient descent to hell is paved with the assumption of good intentions. @SamoBurja, thanks for helping me land this meme. We'll see if it flies beyond our Saturday conversation. 😊

Great work in that interview this morning @realDonaldTrump. Right on! Peace, peace, peace! πŸ™πŸ™πŸ™

After an intentionally 'proportional' 'face-saving' 'low-casualty' responses by Iran, this is the perfect moment for @realDonaldTrump to declare peace, rein in @netanyahu, and protect the Iranians' right to exist & determine for themselves what peaceful regime they can achieve πŸ™
