I'll be the first to say it: Dario needs to be ejected from Anthropic. He and his gang of Effective Altruists have spent years spreading fear, uncertainty, and doubt. The oldest trick in the book: FUD. Now Anthropic is paying the price, and Dario needs to take responsibility for this debacle.

Healthy trend. Fewer schools, fewer professors, fewer students, a lot fewer indebted young people - all without any loss to mind or culture whatsoever.

SCOOP: If you're an Anthropic customer you realize that Fable 5 was abruptly shutdown 72 hours after its release. Here's what happened: Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei refused to fix a vulnerability letting users bypass Fable guardrails for unrestrained Mythos operation. After a heated call the Trump Admin had no choice but to impose export controls to stop potential misuse. Amodei previously warned Mythos was a cyber weapon requiring strict controls yet refused to patch the flaw turning it loose.

Dear US government, Since you've just blocked Fable and Mythos on critical national security grounds, here are some other tools that pose a similar threat to the American people: - Microsoft Teams - SAP - Salesforce - Jira - Outlook Please do what you must to save America 🇺🇸

I can’t believe Anthropic comparing their product to nuclear weapons 800 times backfired on them. I am shocked

David Sacks on How Anthropic is Ironically Running Surveillance on Their Latest Models “This is the company that said that it was against government surveillance. They are now retaining for 30 days every prompt and every output you send to one of these Mythos class models.”

Five Indian nationals ran a horrific human sex trafficking ring in Nebraska. Authorities rescued 27 victims, including 10 children under 12, from cockroach-infested motels and eyebrow salons. The victims endured sex trafficking, exploitation, and squalor. The names of the criminals are: Kentakumar Chaudhari, Rashmi Ajit Samani, Amit Prahladbhai Chaudhari, Amit Babubhai Chaudhari, and Maheshkumar Chaudhari. They’ve been charged with conspiracy to engage in labor & sex trafficking. dhs.gov/news/2025/08/18/icym…

They don’t care for the poor. They just envy the rich.

I was wondering how he would pivot after the election, because he has enough talent and there’s enough energy where he can’t just walk away. Too much at stake. This is perfect.

You’d think one polite explanation of the rules would be enough. That’s basic etiquette in any civilized setting. But apparently, compliance is optional for some people these days. Thank God the guards walked away unharmed and she didn’t stab them in the heart.

Why were Fauci and Hunter pardoned for all crimes that they may have committed, starting January 1, 2014? That’s coincidentally during the Maidan Coup, and just before Obama had Fauci offshore US gain of function research to Ukraine, and just before Hunter’s Metabiota received a USAID contract to look for, and conduct gain of function research on, bat coronaviruses in Ukraine, via USAID Project PREDICT. Immediately after the coup in 2014, the Obama administration began conducting gain of function research in Ukraine, via USAID-funded labs. That’s why Fauci and Hunter were pardoned beginning in 2014. It’s not to protect Fauci and Hunter, it’s really to protect who was running the plot… Obama, and his handlers.

But do they know who Starbuck and Queequeg are?

Today’s SpaceX IPO and the immediate attacks by leftists on @elonmusk should make one thing crystal clear to everyone watching: Leftism is the enemy of humanity. It’s an extinctionist movement that hates excellence and, when carried to its inevitable conclusion, would kill off our species. Watch the ragtag socialist/commie crew of AOC, Bernie Sanders, Platner, Mamdani, Elizabeth Warren, etc. long enough and you’ll see it clearly. They resent excellence. They’re suspicious of ambition. They demonize our best builders and capital allocators. If you’re somehow on the fence because you’ve been led to believe that it’s immoral for someone to have a trillion dollars, consider this: They create precisely nothing of value themselves. They’re the professional version of the worthless critic we all know in our own lives. No innovations. No companies. No major breakthroughs. No employees, aside from staff we’re forced to fund with our tax dollars. On the other hand, Elon has created over 150,000 high-paying jobs at his companies. That doesn’t count contractors, suppliers or their employees. When you add those in, you’re likely talking about millions of jobs affected by him. He’s created tens of thousands of millionaires. His companies changed the car game forever, revolutionized internet access, gave us true free speech online again, helped the blind see, gave autonomy back to disabled people, changed the financial world and will make humanity a spacefaring civilization, which could ultimately save humanity if Earth faces an extinction-level event. The question they want you asking is whether he has too much money. The question I want you asking is this: What kind of society do you want to live in? One that celebrates excellence, advances humanity and makes the impossible possible? Or one laden with resentment, where we all need Daddy Government to provide the same shitty but equal standard of barely living for everyone, while choking innovation to death until there are no more rich people left to fund the welfare they promise? Elon doesn’t use his wealth to shower himself in abundance. He invests it in advancing humanity. If we gave the same amount of money to the government, they wouldn’t accomplish half as much as he has. How do I know? Because we’ve already given them trillions for decades. What did we get? Bloated agencies. Failed programs. Generational fraud. Wars. Armies of consultants. DEI. Perpetual wokeness. A society worth a damn celebrates its best capital allocators. Elon is the best in the business at turning dollars into more dollars by putting them to work in the right places and driving innovation. This uplifts humanity both now and later. If you need someone to demonize as a way to make yourself feel better, then demonize the leftist politicians who do nothing but criticize the most productive, exceptional people in society. These people don’t want you to be successful. They want you to be the cattle they herd. They want you dependent. They want you weak. They want your livelihood dependent on their hand filling your hand with scraps after they’ve robbed someone else’s. The sooner everyone understands that, the better. Eventually, you’ll be the one they rob. Or they’ll simply run out of people to rob. And worse, humanity will stop advancing. Eventually, we won’t even merely survive. Why? Because a cataclysm on Earth isn’t a matter of if. It’s a matter of when. We’re in an invisible race against time to push humanity into becoming a spacefaring civilization that can save itself before that day comes. Leftism would guarantee our deaths. The only path for humanity to survive and thrive is to innovate and for us to celebrate and support the creators, builders and innovators who make that possible. Anyone selling you the lie that those people are the enemy, IS YOUR ACTUAL MORTAL ENEMY. That’s why leftism must be defeated and the woke mind virus must die. I want humanity to survive. I hope you do too.

No lies detected. Elon used to be one of the most popular people on Reddit, ever.

🚩 David Sacks & Jason Say Anthropic’s Call for AI Regulation Could Kneecap Their Open Source Competition “It's not good enough for them just to win in the free market. They're calling on the government to … limit the number of models that you have access to.”

I spent 10 years in progressive higher education. The faculty (and most of the students) LOVED to drone on about how uncouth and vulgar Americans were, specifically heartland conservatives. They did it constantly. Most of them had been to Europe at least once, students for study abroad, faculty for research trips. One professor told me that Ireland was “my favorite country in the whole world.” They loved to talk about how cultured Europeans were, how stupid and out-of-touch flyover Americans were, and made every endeavor to set themselves apart. Well, now the Europeans are here. In the heartland. With the closed-minded-bigoted-Baptists. And they love it. It’s real, it’s beautiful, it’s America. 🇺🇸

dems in 2019: a teenager made a smug face. lets ruin his life dems in 2026: it's just a nazi tattoo ok. it's just a little freaking nazi tattoo he got as a 22 year old infant. get over it

⚡️This is a monster signal. This is the moment frontier AI stops being treated like software and starts being treated like controlled strategic capability. The key phrase is not “customers.” The key phrase is “foreign national Anthropic employees.” That means the state is no longer only controlling chips, model weights, or overseas access. It is moving into cognition access by nationality. That is the real threshold. The U.S. government is saying the highest models are sensitive enough that even people physically inside the United States, working inside the company, may be barred from touching them if their nationality creates deemed-export risk. That is weapons-control logic. This is ITAR logic for intelligence. The corporate language about a “misunderstanding” is probably diplomacy. Companies say that when they need to preserve customer trust, employee morale, and regulatory room. But national security authorities do not force emergency suspension of top model access because someone made a minor paperwork mistake. Something about Fable 5 and Mythos 5 crossed the line: cyber capability, autonomous R&D acceleration, AI-improving-AI utility, bio/security planning, code exploitation, or some blend of all of it. The U.S. state just showed that Anthropic does not fully control Anthropic’s frontier layer. That is the phase change. Labs can brand themselves as public-benefit AI companies. They can talk about safety. They can sell enterprise plans. They can publish model cards. But once the models become national capability, the sovereign arrives. The state does not need to own the company to control the access surface. It only needs legal authority over export, security, procurement, and liability. This confirms the arc we’ve been tracking: Frontier AI becomes state-supervised strategic infrastructure. Public AI splits from strategic AI. Foreign access gets restricted. Labs become quasi-defense contractors. Model access becomes a national security perimeter. Enterprise customers learn that API access is not property. It is revocable permission inside a sovereign-controlled stack. The most important implication is organizational. If foreign national employees can be cut off from frontier systems, AI labs now have to reorganize internally around citizenship, clearance, compartmentalization, and controlled access. That breaks the old Silicon Valley assumption that global talent can freely collaborate around the frontier. The next AI lab structure looks less like Google in 2015 and more like a defense prime crossed with a classified research facility. For markets, the winners are the national champions with U.S.-aligned infrastructure, cleared customer channels, government relationships, compliance capacity, and domestic compute. The losers are open access, foreign-dependent AI wrappers, offshore model distributors, and any enterprise whose moat depends on unrestricted access to frontier APIs. For geopolitics, this is escalation. China will read this correctly. Allies will read this correctly. Every serious state will understand that frontier models are now part of national power. The AI race just moved from “who has the best chatbot” to “who controls cognition as a strategic asset.”

There’s no leftist worth shooting.

Peter’s eternal optimism is cool
