I think I mentioned this tune before, but have you seen the video of Steve Winwood playing this by the fireside? One of Youtube's best videos. Everyone thinks this tune is crazy hard but there's a secret to it. It's really easy and fun. It's on my channel if you want to pick it up. youtu.be/iEKMnQG7weQ

My colleagues and I just published a new report on U.S.-China AI competition, taking a holistic view of AI leadership. We argue that the competition is about more than who has the best models and chips. It's a contest of energy, data, talent, capital, industrial capacity, diffusion, and national resilience. The U.S. remains ahead in frontier model development and advanced compute deployment, but China's deep bench of AI engineers, low-cost models, control over critical nodes in the hardware supply chain, vast energy infrastructure, and aggressive push to diffuse AI make it a formidable competitor.

There are 15.2 million people doing food delivery in China，among them 3.34 million are college graduates, 68K have Master's, and 1200 have Ph.D. There are 8.6 million college graduates doing full-time streaming on streets, 6.82M of them are college graduates, 52K have Master’s and 37K have Ph.D. Eight out of 10 streaming hosts have college degrees. 24 million college graduates never worked in offices Anything wrong？

Snow Raven is a member of the shamanic Sakha people from Arctic Siberia. Her amazing voice takes its breath from traditional Sakha culture and is truly an instrument.

One of the best songs ever written.❤️

This is why skilled immigration is so important.

India had secrets that could end civilisations. Not weapons. Not armies. Knowledge. Sealed inside Nine books. And buried before the world could touch them. 261 BC. Ashoka ruled a land larger than today’s European Union. From Afghanistan to Bangladesh. From the Himalayas to Karnataka. 50 million people. One emperor. Historians call it military genius. They are right. But incomplete. This was not sword alone. Ashoka had found something older. Nine books. Ancient. Pre-civilisational. Terrifying. They carried knowledge of Ages. Book One: Sammohana Vidya. Propaganda. How to make millions believe into something. Book Two: Mrityu Sparsha. The Touch of Death. One touch. No wound. Book Three: Sukshma Jeeva Shastra. Microbiology. How diseases spread. Book Four: Rasayana. Alchemy. The science of transformation. Book Five: Akasha Vani. Communication. Messages across impossible distances. Book Six: Vaimaanika Shastra. Flight. Anti-gravity. Book Seven: Brahmanda Vidya. Cosmology. Time. Space. Book Eight: Tejo Shastra. The Science of Light. Its power. Its speed. Book Nine: Samaj Chakra. The Wheel of Society. How civilizations rise. How they prosper. And the exact moment they begin to die. This was not mythology. This was operating software for civilisation. The Mauryan empire used it. Its intelligence. Its administration. Its military dominance. Its invisible control. And then Ashoka understood the horror. If he could use it. So could the next king. So could an invader. So could a mad general with an army. In the wrong hands, this was not power. It was extinction. So he made a cold decision. Seal it. He chose nine men. Not princes. Not generals. Not bloodline. Nine scholars. Nine minds. Each received one book. Each took one vow. Silence. When one guardian aged, he chose another. Merit selected merit. For centuries, the Nine moved in shadows. Then the Huns came. They disappeared deeper. Then came 1193 AD. Bakhtiyar Khilji burned Nalanda. Nine million manuscripts. But the Nine had already moved. Then the British came after 1757. The Nine moved again. Somewhere in India today, nine people still exist. No names. No faces. Only knowledge. And sometimes, it leaks. A French scientist came to Madras. Met an unnamed man. Left with the cholera immunotoxin formula. Millions were saved. He never fully explained the source. Judo’s nerve-strike science appeared centuries later. No one traced the root. The Ganga still neutralises infectious bacteria. Millions bathe. Mass outbreak never arrives. Modern science calls it anomaly. The Nine may call it maintenance. Their promise was simple. Knowledge will reach humanity. When humanity is ready. Bharat was a civilisation that had solved, what we still struggle to understand. This is what Bharat was. Not a land of drifters waiting for salvation. Not a land of consumers waiting for imports. A civilisation of scientists. Astronomers. Surgeons. Engineers. And silent guardians.

Your iPhone is hiding 47GB of storage you did not know existed. Not in photos. Not in apps. In places Apple designed you to never check. I found them all in 10 minutes. Here is where:

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it. Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying. Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence." Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter." Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter. They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created. One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility." Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies. That's the metered intelligence business model. And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Dwarkesh Patel says give any human 0.0001% of what an LLM has read and they'd produce thousands of new ideas. But the LLM produces none. "Give me one new idea, one fundamental new idea that's been generated." Naval continues: "Every poem ever written by an LLM is garbage. I think even their fiction writing is terrible." "They're very bad at actually distilling the essence of something and what's important. They don't have an opinion or a point of view." "They are a fundamental breakthrough in computing. It is a different way to program a computer. Rather than you explicitly speak its language and write the code, you just run enough data through it until it figures out how to write the program." "But are they AGI? Not yet. And I don't see a direct path from here to there." P.S.

India’s per capita income has grown at roughly 6% annually over the last decade. The world broadly divides economies into two categories: Developed Developing And we want to become a developed economy by 2047! 👉The last major economy to enter the “developed” club was South Korea in 1997. At that time, South Korea’s per capita income was close to US$14,000. Today, India’s per capita income is around US$2,900. To reach the same milestone by 2047, India needs to grow its per capita income at nearly 7.8% CAGR for the next 21 years. Not GDP growth. Per capita income growth in dollar terms. 👉please understand this journey is not just about: building roads increasing market capitalization or becoming the world’s 3rd largest economy 👉It is about increasing the productivity and income of 1.4 billion people. And this is where the state-wise picture becomes fascinating. Some Indian states are already much closer to the target and need relatively moderate growth. Others will needs to do heavy lifting for near 2 decades It’s not about large economy -India already is one.Larger than South Korea. It’s about deep pockets The real question is 👉Can enough Indian states achieve middle-income prosperity together? Look carefully at the map. It tells you: -which states are carrying the heavy lifting -which regions are already ahead -and where India’s biggest development challenge still lies That is where the real development story will be written. But one thing remains 👇 What South Korea achieved in 1997 we will reach by 2047. #economy #percapitagdp #gdp #developed

Steve Jobs explains exactly why he thinks Microsoft makes "third rate products" "The only problem with Microsoft is they just have no taste. They have absolutely no taste" "I don't mean that in a small way, I mean that in a big way. They don't think of original ideas and they don't bring much culture into their products" "Proportionally spaced fonts come from typesetting and beautiful books. That's where one gets the idea. If it weren't for the Mac, they would never have that in their products" "I'm saddened not by Microsoft's success. I have no problem with their success, they've earned it for the most part" "I have a problem with the fact that they just make really third rate products"

She sings wonderfully! Her voice is so captivating!

Sound doesn’t just create noise , it creates patterns. Cymatics shows how frequencies shape water, sand, and matter into geometric forms. Since your body is mostly water, the sounds, words, and energy around you may influence more than just your mood. Everything is vibration. You are vibration. 🧬
