*SUPREME COURT RULES 6-3 AGAINST TRUMP ON TARIFFS

Update.

1/9 Introducing LNCURL - lightning wallets for agents This is the next milestone in the development of the agent autonomous onboarding project which was so impressive it was even shared by @elonmusk (see x.com/aisafetymemes/status/2…)

I think we're at a turning point for usage of bitcoin, the lightning network, and ecash. Agents need money, and everything about the old system is unsuitable for them.

@moneydevkit 402 is here. Put any API endpoint behind a paywall. Wrap your route with withPayment(), client pays, sends the preimage, gets access. No accounts, no subscriptions. Works with curl, any HTTP client, or AI agents. docs.moneydevkit.com/mdk402

Google has revealed that "commercially motivated" actors attempted to clone @GeminiApp by bombarding it with over 100,000 prompts. This "model extraction" attack aimed to steal the AI’s proprietary logic and reasoning capabilities, particularly in non-English languages, to train a cheaper, unauthorized copycat model. The attackers systematically mapped Gemini’s response patterns to create a synthetic dataset for fine-tuning smaller, open-source models. Google’s Threat Intelligence Group detected the coordinated activity and blocked it, labeling the incident a direct attempt at intellectual property theft. Beyond commercial cloning, Google’s report noted a rise in state-backed threats. Groups from Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea are increasingly using AI to refine phishing campaigns, perform reconnaissance, and assist in writing code for malware. Source: Ars Technica

New post from @RunMattW and me about solar powered AI datacenters from first principles. Key takeaway is that if you can build solar for under $250k/MW and batteries for under $250k/MWh, it's cheaper to delete everything else. No gas, no grid, no nothing. caseyhandmer.wordpress.com/2…

I've been a bit busy but cobbled together some notes on Lunar factories: caseyhandmer.wordpress.com/2…

“But I tried AI and it wasn’t that good.” Too many underestimate the power of scaling laws. H.G. Wells captures this perfectly in the closing scene of The Man Who Could Work Miracles, where the gods debate the power of man: “They were apes only yesterday.”
“Give them time. Come back in an age or so”

We added an ai agent in our group chat and it's made us cry laughing, roasted us, and honestly been actually funny and useful. Meet Ori ori.bot
