Woah Truly America first. The permanent underclass are just non-Americans, including green card holders
The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees. The net effect of this order is that we must abruptly disable Fable 5 and Mythos 5 for all our customers to ensure compliance. Access to all other Claude models is not affected. We apologize for this disruption to our customers. We believe this is a misunderstanding and are working to restore access as soon as possible. Read our full statement: anthropic.com/news/fable-myt…

Sharing some photos here of our most recent Elements fireside chat - which we kept in the family - literally. For the first time, I moderated a conversation with my dad, Ray Kurzweil, on everything from how he thinks about making predictions, to Pope Leo’s transhumanist mention and his focus on AI, to the precision and accuracy of his forecasts over the last 63 years. It was particularly sweet to see the energy and passion for the impact of AI come to life with founders, including at least one who traveled internationally to attend. Will be sharing more from the conversation shortly…

It is ironic to see US lawmakers and VCs complain about the dominance of Chinese open-source in American startups when the Chinese are literally giving out the world's best OSS models for free, powering Silicon Valley, with no American alternative, yet
NEW: DeepSeek, the Chinese AI company, is one of the fastest growing vendors on Ramp. In probably the biggest sign that companies are looking for cheaper alternatives to OpenAI and Anthropic, some are willing to use cheaper, Chinese models, sending U.S. data back and forth from China-hosted servers.

First reaction not that bad?

SITUATION DETECTED: Senator Bernie Sanders has called for a law granting the federal government a 50% stake in each AI lab to create a public sovereign wealth fund.

With the drop of the Magnifica Humanitas, it is confirmed that this pope was the elite pick for the AI age He literally picked the name Leo because the last Pope Leo XIII defended workers rights during the Industrial Revolution, and we are now in another technological shift

The content may not be groundbreaking, but it's about who says it The Pope is the single highest moral authority on Earth Very curious if there's any impact on global Catholic elites. Will JD Vance renounce AI acceleration? It's a test of his loyalties to church or valley

Honestly huge upset for Villanova to win First American Pope. Massive fumble by Notre Dame. They were the top seed

How should one even describe Ray Kurzweil? - Prolific inventor of OCR, TTS, and foundational NLP - Repeat national bestselling author - "Godfather of AGI" who popularized the Singularity and inspired the founding of Anthropic, Deepmind and OpenAI - Most accurate superforecaster of technology whose AGI timelines are still accurate to this day - Highest U.S. technological award from Bill Clinton (he's received honors from 3 sitting presidents and honorary degrees from 21 universities) - VP at Google whose job was to predict the future - MIT board of trustees - OG biohacker who plans to live forever - Grammy award winner - Father of Chemistry founding partner, Ethan It's nearly impossible to encapsulate the breadth of Ray Kurzweil's wide-ranging experiences and impact on our world. Join us for conversation between Ray Kurzweil and his son Ethan as we ask the man who predicted AGI what he thinks will happen next and what he did not foresee. luma.com/67w9nfwu

In China you can already hire subsidized cleaners on the largest gig worker platform 58同城 and they come with @XSquareRobot to do the cleaning and have the humans handle the edge cases.
Today, we're launching shift. We're starting by cleaning your apartment in New York City, for free. Here's how it works. Book a shift cleaning. A vetted shift operator comes to your home wearing one of our devices. They clean. They leave. You pay nothing. In exchange, we record the cleaning. Robotics is being built on data about how people do daily tasks, and the value of that recording is what funds the service. Anything personal in it is anonymized before the recording is processed. By now, you have heard about the shift to AI more times than you can count. About the shift toward you, the part where you actually feel it, you have heard almost nothing. Shift is what starts to make it concrete, in specific cities, with specific services. Today, cleaning in New York. Soon, handymen, repairs, and errands across the globe. And this is just one side of shift, with more on the way. Comment “shift” and we’ll send you an early access link.

So much pontification about the demographic crisis and the solution was just to send KOSPI to infinity.

Shenzhen is the SF of China. You feel it when you land at the airport. Every ad is agents or inference except maybe they have a bit more humanoids Baidu even managed to hit a twofer with embodied AI and cloud inference in one billboard

Coming out of 10 days with founders and researchers in China, I was surprised that this headline is true I was seeking to dispel Western narratives of Chinese AI optimism because Chinese social media was also rife with job loss angst, but it really did feel less doomer than SF
While only 38% of Americans say they are excited about AI, optimism levels reach as high as 84% in China and 80% in Indonesia, signaling a massive regional divide in how the world views the future of tech restofworld.org/2026/ai-opti…

Surprisingly refreshing to escape the apocalyptic doom bubble for a week, but of course they may not feel the AGI yet

There are very few people who have been thinking seriously about AI since long before it became the center of every single conversation as it today. In this case, 60 years before... My dad, Ray Kurzweil, is one of them. On June 2, as part of @chemistry's Elements series, I’ll be sitting down with him in San Francisco for a conversation on AI, intelligence, and the future. Who knows? I may even toss in a few questions about philosophy and the meaning of life.

Drug discovery has always been a race against time. Fathom Therapeutics is trying to change the pace entirely — using physics AI to design drugs fast enough to outrun disease. We joined their recent $47M Series A alongside @shv and are excited to support @hardsphere and team.
