There is such a thing as a free lunch; it just isn't very tasty.
It’s impossible to not love Twitter

硅谷PayPal帮主彼得·蒂尔认为,AI正终结过去200年,以数学能力为核心的精英体系。工程、量化等“数学型人才”的逻辑优势,正在被AI迅速替代,其职业护城河也正在消失。未来真正的竞争力,在于叙事、社交语境理解,以及把AI嵌入社会系统的语言型人才,这才是人类独特优势。 工业革命让肌肉贬值,AI革命正在让“纯计算的大脑”贬值。未来的胜出者,是那些能用语言驾驭算法、用叙事锚定价值的社会系统操盘手。 作为程序员: 别只埋头代码,而是要多练自然语言描述问题;学产品思维和用户研究,理解非技术需求;开发时优先考虑伦理、社会影响;选领域深耕;把代码变成“能讲故事”的系统。未来你的优势是“代码 叙事”。所以,年轻人别慌着放弃STEM,也别觉得学文科就躺赢了。真正该练的,是用AI思考更深的问、讲出更动人的故事、构建更复杂的社会系统。蒂尔指出了方向,但真正的游戏,才刚刚开始。 说白了,需要文理兼修,才能走得更远。

Anthropic acaba de publicar que el Gobierno de Estados Unidos le obligó a suspender el acceso a sus modelos Fable 5 y Mythos 5 para cualquier extranjero, incluso empleados extranjeros de Anthropic dentro de la propia empresa. Si esto se confirma tal como lo describe Anthropic, es una señal enorme para Europa. Durante años Bruselas confundió poder tecnológico con regular la tecnología de otros. Pero el poder de verdad es poder fabricar chips, comprar energía barata, entrenar modelos, atraer ingenieros y decidir quién puede usar la herramienta. La IA ya no es solo software. Es infraestructura crítica, como electricidad, telecomunicaciones o satélites. Un hospital, un banco, una fábrica o un ejército que depende por completo de modelos que otro país puede apagar con una orden administrativa no es autónomo. Europa no necesita otro documento grandilocuente sobre soberanía digital. Necesita capital, energía, centros de datos, universidades más conectadas con empresas y menos miedo al éxito privado. Regular sin construir es una forma elegante de aceptar dependencia.

I made this GTA6 clone in 1 day with Claude Fable 5. Crazy (@GPTA6_Slop_City ). You can play it now at GPTA6.com You can run around, drive cars, shoot guns, fly planes and helicopters, run from cops and army. Play with friends, there’s even a real-time multiplayer mode with frag count (press TAB in game)! - Coded in @claudeai with Fable 5. - Music made in @Suno (When you sit into a car, it has a radio. Hosts talk about stuff and play 8 different tracks. All are AI related, soundtrack on Spotify) - 3d models used from @SyntyStudios (all characters, maps, objects, animations, rigs) - Voiceovers made with @ElevenLabs (People talking in the radio, characters, etc). - In-game ads by SpecificResume.com made in @ChatGPTapp - used SFX pack by imphenzia.com/universal-soun… GPTA 6: Slop City... Game Prompted Today, ASAP!!!

Good Morning from Germany, where the entire Dax – the 40 largest listed companies – is barely bigger than SpaceX, now valued at $2.1tn. One rocket company versus corporate Germany.

One of my favorite pod episodes ever! Cousin @JacobShap and I had my colleagues from BCA @ElClutch and @RobertTimper1 (the twin authors of the BCA World Cup Forecast) to talk about the Most Important Uninmportant Thing in the World! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

What drives long term equity returns? Many people think it is economic growth. And yet, several studies have shown that GDP growth has zero correlation with long term returns. So what should you pay attention to? In a recent piece we broke down returns for 33 countries over the past 26 years into several components. Our results showed that net buybacks (essentially equity dilution) were the most important driver. This is in line with other academic research on the subject. Dilution explains why countries like China that experienced economic miracles had such poor equity performance. Corporate profits as well as stock market profits soared, and yet EPS was very poor due to extreme levels of issuance.

La crisis de fertilidad no se arregla con slogans ni con ministerios. Se arregla cuando la sociedad vuelve a tratar a los hijos como una parte central de una vida buena, no como un accidente financiero que hay que postergar hasta que todo sea perfecto. El problema es que el momento perfecto no llega. Primero hay que estudiar, luego trabajar, luego comprar casa, luego estabilizar la pareja, luego viajar, luego ahorrar. Cuando por fin parece razonable tener hijos, muchas parejas descubren que la biologia no esperaba. Y nadie les habia explicado con suficiente claridad que la fertilidad cae antes que las ganas de ser padres. Tambien hay un error cultural enorme: presentar a los hijos como el final de la libertad. Mi experiencia es la contraria. Los hijos te quitan libertad superficial, pero te dan una libertad mas profunda: la de dejar de vivir solo para ti mismo. Te obligan a ordenar prioridades, a pensar en decadas, a construir algo que te trasciende. Los gobiernos pueden ayudar con impuestos, vivienda, guarderias y horarios laborales mas humanos. Pero la solucion no sera solo economica. Es cultural. Tenemos que volver a decir sin complejos que formar una familia es una de las grandes aventuras de la vida, no una renuncia. La tecnologia reproductiva ayuda mucho, pero no reemplaza una cultura que anime a empezar antes.

So Benchmark kept the Meta bag but Delian was right about it being a CCP controlled entity… Never a dull moment.

Fede Sturzenegger mostró ayer el RUNA, el nuevo registro argentino que permite vender y patentar un 0 km de forma digital e instantánea. Parece un trámite menor, pero es una revolución silenciosa. Un país no se moderniza solo con grandes discursos. Se moderniza cuando el Estado deja de obligar a millones de personas a perder horas, pagar gestores, juntar papeles, esperar sellos y alimentar pequeñas cajas de burocracia. Milei y su equipo entienden algo que Europa olvidó: el tiempo del ciudadano también es propiedad privada. Cuando el Estado te roba una mañana para hacer algo que una base de datos podría resolver en segundos, también te está cobrando un impuesto. Argentina venía de décadas de casta viviendo de fricción. Cada formulario era una excusa para un empleado, una firma, una tasa, un favor. Digitalizar bien no es poner un PDF en una web. Es matar el trámite. España debería mirar esto con humildad. Tenemos tecnología, talento y dinero, pero seguimos defendiendo procesos absurdos porque demasiada gente vive de que nada sea simple. La libertad también se mide en minutos que el Estado deja de quitarte.

NEW: malware developers added nuclear & biological weapons text to to their spyware. Goal? To trigger LLM safety refusals... so that their spyware wouldn't be analyzed by an AI security scanner. Cleanest practical example I can think of for why over-indexing on first order safety alignment is risky. When closed (and open) models ship with aggressive refusals, they will be sprinkled with second-order blindspots that attackers will discover...and exploit. We are only in the earliest days of attackers leveraging these features, and it wouldn't surprise me if users systems that need to handle complex cybersecurity issues demand that models be less safety-blunted. In the weeds: @SocketSecurity's post also shows why intention matters in how you design a malware analysis pipeline to avoid prompt manipulation. H/T to colleagues that shared this with me socket.dev/blog/mini-shai-hu…

Business Insider reported yesterday that Citrini Research thinks the AI trade is moving from free AI to tokenomics. Good word. Every founder using agents feels it already. A chatbot answer is cheap. An agent that reads files, calls tools, tries again, tests code, writes reports and runs all day is a small factory consuming tokens, memory, GPUs and electricity. The demo looks like software. The bill looks like operations. Winners will measure cost per useful task: one bug fixed, one insurance claim processed, one radiology worklist triaged, one contract reviewed. Tokens will become like cloud spend after 2010. First nobody cared. Then AWS bills became a board topic. Local inference and edge AI matter for exactly this reason. If every useful workflow crosses a hyperscaler toll road every second, margins flow to the infrastructure owners. If more inference runs on PCs, phones, hospital servers, cars and factory machines, AI becomes an operating advantage instead of a subscription tax. The AI bubble debate is too abstract. The founder question is simple: can this intelligence lower unit cost? If yes, it compounds. If no, it is a very expensive toy.

3/ The wildly popular 80/90s Borland C/C compiler snuck in a license change restricting development of "competitive products" (v 4.5)—previously the "no nonsense license" company. Damage was done— Microsoft overtook Borland. When a vendor tells you who they are, believe them.
