🚨 AI : the story of Dario Amodei and Anthropic 🚀 Anthropic is the company with the most advanced model today. I strongly recommend listening to it. It debunks some of the misconceptions people have due to 3 seconds video clips on social media. Listen to the whole thing 👇🏼 x.com/0xCarnagee/status/2064…

Kevin O’Leary: "The worst part about being a rich guy? It's your own family hitting on you for money. And it's extremely difficult, particularly during the period when you're starting to amass it."

Interesting

Trump told to Axios reporter Ravid: Bibi has no fucking judgment - I passed this message on to him - that I am very unhappy with the attack in Beirut.

Give me the 1950s any day of the week!

🚨🇬🇧 The UK is set to ban social media for under-16s and introduce nightly curfews for 16 and 17-year-olds. Daily use will be restricted to curb unhealthy doomscrolling. They will also limit access to certain AI chatbots and certain features on gaming apps.

Private education needs to compete. Expect many American universities due to the decisions of Donald Trump to go under. Quebec has a public system and it will hold, even though new immigration laws are also putting a big pressure on its international students arrival. But they will have to learn to train the proper skills in this AI age. The biggest winner from this American exit from the world should be Asian universities. At some point in the near to mid future, the United States will swing the other way and feel the Bern (whoever his successor is in this left-wing movement). By that time, a lot of the skillset necessary for the population, and the learning environment, will be very different.

Tom nails it: the way out for Trump is to claim victory - even though it’s a complete disaster - and at least pretend that it’s a full victory for the American people and then he can get out.

En 1856, la France envoie en Algérie son arme la plus inattendue : un horloger de Blois, chargé de battre des sorciers à leur propre jeu. Dans les villages kabyles, des marabouts soulèvent les tribus contre l'autorité coloniale à coups de prodiges. Le bureau politique d'Alger a une idée folle : leur opposer un Français encore plus fort qu'eux. L'homme choisi n'est pas un soldat. Fils d'horloger, génie de la mécanique, il a inventé le théâtre de magie moderne à Paris. Fini les tréteaux de foire : ses Soirées fantastiques se jouent en habit noir, dans un vrai théâtre. Devant les chefs de tribus réunis, il présente un coffret qu'un enfant soulève d'une main. Puis il annonce qu'il peut ôter sa force à l'homme le plus puissant. Le colosse qui s'avance ne décolle pas la caisse du sol. Un électroaimant, caché sous le plancher. Plus tard, il attrape une balle de pistolet entre ses dents. La mission est un triomphe. Il s'appelle Jean-Eugène Robert-Houdin. Vingt ans après sa mort, un jeune Américain prendra son nom par admiration : Houdini. Il s'est éteint un 13 juin, en 1871. Vous connaissiez l'homme caché derrière le plus grand nom de la magie ?

Just enough time to finish watching the World Cup first

This shortage of chips is getting out of hand.

I’ve had a number of conversations with folks inside and outside government about the current situation with Anthropic, and here is what I believe to be true: — As we know, Anthropic publicly released its Mythos class models earlier this week under the commercial name Fable. — Fable is Mythos with guardrails. But if those guardrails fail, then you’ve exposed Mythos and its advanced cyber capabilities to people who shouldn’t have them. (Keep in mind that Anthropic itself widely promoted the idea that Mythos was a cyberweapon and needed to be regulated as such. They asked for government regulation of Mythos and championed the guardrails on Fable. If there is a vulnerability — big or small — it is Anthropic’s responsibility to patch.) — A highly credible trusted partner of both Anthropic and the USG who was testing Fable came forward with a jailbreak of those guardrails. The Admin asked Dario to fix the jailbreak or de-deploy the model. Dario refused. — In their blog post, Anthropic defended its decision by saying the jailbreak isn’t serious. That is not what the trusted partner and the USG believe; nor is that kind of minimizing language consistent with Anthropic’s brand as the AI safety company. It’s difficult to fathom how they could claim a jailbreak allowing operability of a cyber weapon could be defined as not “serious.” — In the past, Anthropic has always said that safety must be top priority and taken super seriously. In this case, Anthropic prioritized the continued offering of the consumer model over safety. — In reaction, the Admin issued the export control. The Admin did this reluctantly. It’s been very surprised that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to cooperate with a reasonable safety request (ie fixing the jailbreak issue). Anthropic’s reaction is very much at odds with their branding and ethos as a safe AI research community. — The Admin’s hope now is that Anthropic remediates the safety issue, the export control is lifted, and Fable goes back into general release. The Admin wants all of this to happen as soon as possible. It is frankly bewildered that Anthropic hasn’t wanted to comply with safety requests that it previously said were its highest priority. — Those trying to misdirect and tie this action to the prior DoW/Anthropic issues are wrong. The Admin values Anthropic’s technical capabilities and feels that this issue, while serious, should be easily resolved. The ball is in Anthropic’s court.

Psychology of finance :

Nuclear dust unlikely to be in the deal. Just a face saving fake commitment to not have nukes later (but all major countries around will race to a nuke regardless).

Congratulations @ElonMusk. Thanks to SpaceX's IPO, he's the first Trillionaire. He didn't TAKE money from anyone. He CREATED wealth. He launched satellites that connect even the poorest, most remote parts of the world. Our world needs more MAKERS like Musk; fewer TAKERS like:

🇨🇦🇫🇷 Macron to Canada PM Carney: "Today more than ever, we have a similar reading on the world. We see that the international order has been fractured." Macron’s globalist worldview, emphasizing open societies and international law over national cohesion, has been repeatedly exposed as a failure in France itself. France has spent DECADES trying to accommodate large numbers of immigrants under the cute banner of "multiculturalism" and “vivre-ensemble.” The results speak for themselves: Large parts of the suburbs have become effectively no-go zones with parallel societies and high crime. France has also suffered repeated terrorist attacks, something far less common in countries that maintain stronger cultural assimilation policies. Still, he's out here preaching about "international order" to the Canada's PM... baffling. Source: CTV / Writers: Claudio, Oliver

Everyone is talking about Elon Musk, and the SpaceX IPO. But a trillion isn’t exactly what you think it is. w/@inneroperator Shout out to @RyanClogg

🇨🇦🇪🇺 Canada’s PM Mark Carney said: “The new world order will be built from Europe.” He called Canada “the most European of non-European countries” and said they’re deepening ties with the EU. That's actually very accurate Writers: Lucas, Oliver

Within ~5 years, probably ~5 times as many satellites as rest of world

‼️🚨 BREAKING: Amazon researchers snitched to the US government about jailbreaking Fable 5 and Mythos 5, forcing Anthropic to immediately shut down worldwide access. A security export control directive from Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick enforced the action. Anthropic is fighting the directive and calls it a misunderstanding. This isn't the first clash. The Trump administration had already tried to get Anthropic to pause the release of its latest models before this directive landed.
