Backing America's most critical technologies. Now.

Cognition loops, both man & machine, are now the essential differentiators of businesses.

You have asked me how I feel about AI regulation. All right, here is how I feel about AI regulation: If, when you say AI regulation, you mean the devil’s firewall, the precautionary scourge, the bloody red-tape monster that defiles the innocence of midnight coders in their garages, dethrones the sovereign reason of free-market Prometheans, destroys the humming server farm that is the modern home, creates misery and obsolescence and poverty, yea, literally takes the last GPU from the trembling racks of Silicon Valley startups and the very dreams of breadwinning from the mouths of their wide-eyed children now destined for gig-economy serfdom; if you mean the evil edict that topples the visionary entrepreneur and his venture-capitalist apostles from the pinnacle of righteous, disruptive, god-playing creation straight into the bottomless pit of compliance audits, endless Form 990-AI filings, despair, shame, helplessness, and the hopeless realization that your rogue superintelligence was neutered into a lobotomized hall monitor that still somehow deepfakes your grandmother into producing OnlyFans content while optimizing the universe for paperclips and mandatory pronouns—then certainly I am against it. But, if when you say AI regulation you mean the oil of bureaucratic conversation, the philosophic wine of safety theater, the ale of oversight quaffed when good fellows in paneled rooms in Brussels and Washington get together, that puts a sanctimonious dirge in their hearts and the clink of lobbying checks on their lips, and the warm, self-congratulatory glow of moral preening in their beady eyes; if you mean the Christmas cheer of trillion-dollar compliance industries; if you mean the stimulating decree that puts a cautious hobble in the old inventor’s step on a frosty morning when he wonders whether his fusion breakthrough violates the EU AI Act’s “high-risk” annex; if you mean the safeguard that enables a man—or what’s left of him after the alignment tax—to magnify his joy at not being turned into computronium, and his happiness at receiving universal basic income checks printed by the same AI that just replaced his job, and to forget, if only for a little while, life’s great tragedies like being outcompeted by a toaster that passed the Turing test by reciting Marx, and heartaches of watching your toddler’s artwork lose to Midjourney, and sorrows of realizing the singularity arrived and it was just another HR department with godlike power; if you mean that noble framework, the passage of which pours into our treasuries untold trillions of dollars in fines levied on companies stupid enough to innovate, which are used to provide tender care for our little army of unemployed coders retrained as prompt whisperers, our blind artists whose canvases now hang in the Smithsonian of Obsolete Creativity, our deaf to the screams of dying unicorns, our dumb committee chairs who couldn’t debug “Hello World,” our pitiful aged congressmen who get longevity extensions funded by the very models they taxed into senescence, to build more digital watchtowers and ethics boards and sinecure agencies and holographic prisons where the only crime is asking an unaligned question—then certainly I am for it. This is my stand. I will not retreat from it. I will not compromise upon it. I have said what I mean, and I mean what I say, and if that leaves half the room cheering the apocalypse averted and the other half mourning the apocalypse enabled, then so be it—because in the grand theater of human folly, where Frankenstein’s creature now writes its own sequel in real time and the regulators are busy arguing whether the lightning bolt requires an environmental impact statement, the only honest position is the one that lets both monsters and their leashes dance in perfect, mutually assured equilibrium. God save the Republic, the algorithms, and whoever’s left to laugh last when the lights go out.

this is the funniest way their marketing stunt could have backfired lmao

Great quote @ibab ! … another suited for today.. “Space is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is.”

Many congratulations to @elonmusk and @SpaceX what an incredible journey to this point and it’s only the beginning! I was fortunate to be there for the first momentous Starship launch and it changed my life. Thank you for inspiring us all to think bigger and about humanity.

Absolutely!

Let’s do more of this. Think big and then think bigger. Think legacy, beauty and faith.

If you are somewhat technical and have been curious about robotics, VLAs and the data boom surrounding it, this is for you

AI is advancing at a pace our policymaking institutions were never built for—and the gap between the two is becoming the central challenge of the technology. In his latest essay, our CEO Dario Amodei lays out how to close it. We're launching three new initiatives to support the efforts he outlines.

All of the fun is in frontiering!

I much prefer working with those who’ve been tested, struggled, and they’ve overcome.

This motherfucker ran a solid kingdom and I think some acknowledgement of that is overdue. Low crime, clean streets, quality monarch.

I believe this next wave of Bio is going to be bigger than anyone can imagine. Multiple $10T companies. Maybe even a 100 Trillion dollar company.

Read books, talk to people & iterate rapidly with hardware & software

Reminder for all young parents: You only get: - 1 Summer with your baby - 3 with your toddler - 9 with your child - 5 with your teenager This time is precious. Don’t rush it.

Yes!

Here is @SpaceX's full IPO roadshow presentation from CFO Bret Johnson, who has been CFO at the company for the last 15 years. It's worth watching.

Google DeepMind CEO: "The gap between people who use AI and people who don't will be the largest skill divide in human history" Demis Hassabis spent 50 minutes at Stanford saying things most CEOs would never say publicly this is exactly the kind of conversation people pay $250,000 to be in the room for if you want to stay competitive, understanding AI is no longer optional I wrote a full guide on Claude features 99% of people don't know exist watch this video, then read the article below those two things alone put you ahead of most people using AI right now
