I’m incredibly proud & excited to finally share what we’ve been building for the past 3 years… is now live 🚀 In a world of conflicting health advice, how can anyone distinguish between what’s supported by science and what’s just opinion? I wanted to build something new. A place where scientists, engineers, industry leaders, and the public come together, where people can understand what the science actually says, and where we move healthcare beyond treating sickness toward extending healthy lifespan well beyond what’s currently possible. Explore the new Lifespan Magazine. Watch the Lifespan show. Ask scientists questions. Join a global community. And help support research and the next generation of scientists working to extend healthy human lifespan. I believe we’re at the beginning of a revolution in our understanding of human aging, and perhaps one day, our ability to change it. I want everyone to be part of it. Built by scientists. Built for you. Life’s too short. Let’s change that, together! 👊 —— Note: The views of Lifespan & its team are their own & do not represent the views of Harvard, Harvard Medical School, or their affiliates✌️

I had the privilege of accompanying Mr Peter Obi, on an intense and deeply inspiring journey across three critical states, Kaduna State, Katsina State, and Kano State, all within the space of a single day. What I witnessed was not just physical stamina, but emotional strength, clarity of purpose, and an unwavering commitment to the Nigerian project. From Kaduna to Katsina, and finally Kano where we attended the Kwankwasiyya gathering, the message was consistent and powerful, Nigeria must rise above the narrow lines of religion, ethnicity, and division that have held us back for far too long. Everywhere we went, the energy was undeniable. The people are eager, not just for leadership, but for meaningful leadership, one that listens, connects, and acts. In Kaduna, we engaged with aspirants and stakeholders who are determined to rebuild from the grassroots. In Katsina, the conversations were frank, honest, and focused on the future of our democracy. And in Kano, amidst the vibrant spirit of the Kwankwasiyya movement, it became even clearer that Nigerians are ready to unite behind competence, capacity, and character. What stood out most to me was how Peter Obi continues to connect effortlessly with people across all divides, not through rhetoric, but through sincerity, humility, and a shared vision of a better Nigeria. He speaks to the hopes of the ordinary Nigerian, the trader, the student, the farmer, reminding them that they matter, and that this country belongs to all of us. This journey was more than a political movement; it was a reaffirmation that Nigeria’s unity is not only possible, but necessary. We must move beyond parochial sentiments and embrace a future anchored on equity, justice, and productivity. The road ahead may be challenging, but days like this strengthen my belief that a New Nigeria is not just a dream, it is within reach, if we choose to rise above division and work together as one people. -Dr. Moses Paul

Around the world, the crackdown on free speech is accelerating. In Britain, the courts are sentencing people to years in prison for things they posted on X, formerly Twitter. In the United States, the architects of the Censorship Industrial Complex are raising money for Kamala Harris in hopes of re-imposing government censorship on social media platforms after she wins. And in Brazil, the government has forced X to end its operations after threatening to arrest X’s employees in Brazil if the company continues to refuse to permanently ban disfavored journalists, influencers, and elected political leaders from its platform. The Brazilian government may soon block access to X in Brazil, forcing its citizens to rely upon VPNs, or virtual private networks, in order to access X illegally. On the one hand, none of these events appear to have anything in common. In Britain, there were riots triggered by misinformation that the killer of two children was an illegal immigrant. In the United States, the Censorship Industrial Complex emerged in reaction to the 2016 election of Donald Trump. And in Brazil, a single Supreme Court justice has taken it upon himself to demand extreme levels of censorship in reaction to the election of a populist president in 2018. But at another level, all of these events are connected. Starmer, Harris, and Lula have all embraced the first and most important step toward totalitarianism, which is censorship. This is even more alarming given the events of the last few days, when Harris announced that she would seek price controls on food and a housing agenda that would significantly expand the role of the government without increasing supply. I don’t think the labels of communist or fascist accurately describe the systems that Starmer, Harris, and Lula are creating. In some ways, those three leaders are drawing upon elements of both totalitarian systems. But trying to compare what’s happening now to what happened in the early 20th Century risks confusing us as to what is happening before our very eyes. But I do think the label of totalitarianism is accurate to describe what these leaders are doing and where they appear to be headed. Part of what’s so alarming about what they are doing is that they are melding together the demands of global capital and of Woke Leftists at the grassroots level. Both are driven by intolerance of free speech and free expression. Scarcely a day passes without the mainstream media attacking Elon Musk as a threat to democracy because he has allowed freedom of speech on X. Why are they doing that? Because the mainstream media are financed by and should be thought of as global capital’s marketing and propaganda operation. And, as alarming, there is strong evidence that those leaders are and have been working together to impose a censorship industrial complex worldwide. Europe, Australia, and Brazil have all sought to ban and censor disfavored views and individuals not just in their home countries but worldwide. Over the last decade, these governments, politicians, and political parties have worked to coordinate their work at the United Nations, World Economic Forum, and other NGOs that operate across borders. And reporting by Public and others has uncovered collaboration between intelligence agencies in all three nations. Media disinformation that populism poses a threat to democracy has increased the public’s support for online censorship. From 2018 to 2023, the share of Democrats who told Pew they wanted the government to engage in more censorship of disfavored online speech rose from 40% to 70%. An identical dynamic is occurring in Brazil and Britain, whereby the mainstream news media and Left-wing political activists have called for the censorship of their political enemies. Friends, I’m sorry to say, but this is what the global transition to totalitarianism looks like. Big businesses, left-wing governments, and the legacy news media have made clear that they cannot tolerate free speech online. They grew accustomed to controlling public opinion first through the legacy media and then through Facebook, Google, and Twitter. Global elites have made clear that they believe that freedom of speech on a single social media platform, and one that is far smaller than Facebook or Google, is intolerable. This desire for total control is the central characteristic of the totalitarianism that is presently emerging from elites at the corporate and political levels around the world. In addition to pushing censorship, these leaders and global elites are seeking to overturn liberal democracies and impose a radically different system of iliberal rule in the Western world. Rather than meritocracy and equal justice for all, elites are seeking to impose a Woke racialist hierarchy that gives preferential treatment to some groups and prejudicial treatment to other groups supposedly based on historic oppression. There are signs of hope. Recently, a group of censorsial advertisers called the group of advertisers, called the Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM) disbanded after X sued them. But X cannot defend freedom of speech alone. We need a global free speech movement to defend our fundamental freedom against tyranny. If we lose free speech we will lose everything else, including our civilization. The step between censorship and price controls and shortages will be a very small one. We are working with our allies around the world to raise the alarm. In June we gathered free speech advocates from the United States, Britain, Brazil, and other countries, and we are now working together on a combined effort to stand up for freedom and against the tyrants. If you’d like to support our work, please subscribe now to Public. If you can do more than that, please consider a tax-deductible donation to support the free speech movement. The moment we have been warning about is approaching more rapidly than any of us expected.

Impact After Term | 07 : Special Initiatives of the Finance Department | 02 : Economic Advisory Council — Bringing Global Expertise to Tamil Nadu's Development Goals Major reforms are rarely shaped by a single viewpoint. The most successful governments create systems that challenge assumptions, incorporate diverse perspectives, and draw upon the best available expertise. Recognising this, the DMK Government led by Thiru. M.K.Stalin constituted the Economic Advisory Council in 2021. Conceived as a special initiative of the Finance Department under Dr. Dr P Thiaga Rajan (PTR), the Council brought together some of the world's most respected economists and policy experts to help Tamil Nadu navigate the economic challenges arising from the COVID-19 pandemic and chart a path towards rapid, inclusive, and sustainable long-term growth. The Council comprised Nobel Laureate Prof. Esther Duflo, former RBI Governor Prof. Raghuram Rajan, former Chief Economic Advisor to the Government of India Dr. Arvind Subramanian, development economist Prof. Jean Drèze, and former Union Finance Secretary Dr. S. Narayan. Deliberately designed to reflect different schools of thought on economics, development, welfare, and governance, each member was individually invited by Dr. PTR and accepted the invitation without prior knowledge of the other members who would eventually serve on the Council. As a result, this initiative brought five distinct perspectives to some of Tamil Nadu's most important policy challenges, helping shape its long-term development agenda and institutional reforms. Working under the leadership of the Hon'ble Chief Minister Thiru. M.K.Stalin and in consultation with various Government departments, the Council contributed to policy discussions across education, healthcare, social welfare, industry, energy, information technology, and public finance. Its recommendations helped shape Tamil Nadu's COVID-19 third-wave countermeasures, the Illam Thedi Kalvi scheme to address learning losses among students, support measures for MSME recovery, improvements in local body finances, and reforms to enhance the efficiency and sustainability of the power sector. The Council also contributed to data-centric governance reforms, Tamil Nadu's memorandum to the 16th Finance Commission, and strategies to strengthen the State's fiscal health. Notably, all five members of the Council contributed their time, expertise, and guidance entirely in a public-spirited capacity, without accepting any remuneration from the Government. — Admin Team

🚨 WARNING TEXAS 🚨 What’s rising beside UT Austin is not a mosque expansion. It’s a $25M+ Saudi-seeded Islamic campus complex engineered from day one to be copied across American universities. This is EPIC City - redesigned for college students. A fully integrated Islamic ecosystem is being embedded next to a public university: ▪️ Mosque-centered authority ▪️ Seminary training future Islamic leaders ▪️ Mosque-owned, gender-segregated student housing ▪️ Sharia-compliant financing and zakat-based funding ▪️ Dawah operations treating universities as ideological terrain ▪️ Behavioral and social rule enforcement ▪️ A self-sustaining revenue engine designed for permanence This project began decades ago with Saudi government funding to establish the original mosque. Now it has matured — precisely as the Muslim Brotherhood planned — into a fortress-scale Islamic campus hub. And it’s already expanding beyond this build. Leaders have publicly confirmed partnerships with a Muslim developer and are actively pursuing additional property acquisitions to grow this footprint even larger. Here’s the real scandal: The City of Austin is facilitating it. Texas leadership is nowhere to be found. No scrutiny. No oversight. No public debate. So ask the question out loud: How does a foreign-seeded, Muslim Brotherhood–linked project entrench itself beside a flagship public university — with state and municipal help — without triggering outrage? This is about Islamic infrastructure, control, and replication. We are going to be Islamized faster than Europe if our leaders do not start protecting our states! And once that infrastructure is embedded, it doesn’t fade away. It locks in - and spreads. Austin is the test case. Texas is the launch point. What happens next depends on whether anyone in power is willing to confront it NOW. TEXANS - PLEASE CALL YOUR LEADERS SEE THE REPORT:

This is about Islamic infrastructure, control, and replication. We are going to be Islamized faster than Europe if our leaders do not start protecting our states! And once that infrastructure is embedded, it doesn’t fade away. It locks in - and spreads. Austin is the test case. Texas is the launch point. What happens next depends on whether anyone in power is willing to confront it NOW. TEXANS - PLEASE CALL YOUR LEADERS SEE THE REPORT:

Last Friday on Pi Day, we held AI Dev 25, a new conference for AI Developers. Tickets had (unfortunately) sold out shortly after we announced their availability, but I came away energized by the day of coding and technical discussions with fellow AI Builders! Let me share here my observations from the event. I'd decided to start AI Dev because while there're great academic AI conferences that disseminate research work (such as NeurIPS, ICML and ICLR) and also great meetings held by individual companies, often focused on each company's product offerings, there were few vendor-neutral conferences for AI developers. With the wide range of AI tools now available, there is a rich set of opportunities for developers to build new things (and to share ideas on how to build things!), but also a need for a neutral forum that helps developers do so. Based on an informal poll, about half the attendees had traveled to San Francisco from outside the Bay Area for this meeting, including many who had come from overseas. I was thrilled by the enthusiasm to be part of this AI Builder community. To everyone who came, thank you! Other aspects of the event that struck me: - First, agentic AI continues to be a strong theme. The topic attendees most wanted to hear about (based on free text responses to our in-person survey at the start of the event) was agents! - Google's Paige Bailey talked about embedding AI in everything and using a wide range of models to do so. I also particularly enjoyed her demos of Astra and Deep Research agents. - Meta's Amit Sangani talked compellingly as usual about open models. Specifically, he described developers fine-tuning smaller models on specific data, resulting in superior performance than with large general purpose models. While there're still many companies using fine-tuning that should really just be prompting, I'm also seeing continued growth of fine-tuning in applications that are reaching scale and that are becoming valuable. - Many speakers also spoke about the importance of being pragmatic about what problems we are solving, as opposed to buying into the AGI hype. For example, Nebius' Roman Chernin put it simply: Focusing on solving real problems is important! - Lastly, I was excited to hear continued enthusiasm for the Voice Stack. Justin Uberti gave a talk about OpenAI’s realtime audio API to a packed room, with many people pulling out laptops to try things out themselves in code! has a strong “Learner First” mentality; our foremost goal is always to help learners. I was thrilled that a few attendees told me they enjoyed how technical the sessions were, and said they learned many things that they're sure they will use. (In fact, I, too, came away with a few ideas from the sessions!) I was also struck that, both during the talks and at the technical demo booths, the rooms were packed with attendees who were highly engaged throughout the whole day. I'm glad that we were able to have a meeting filled with technical and engineering discussions. I'm delighted that AI Dev 25 went off so well, and am grateful to all the attendees, volunteers, speakers, sponsors, partners, and team members that made the event possible. I regretted only that the physical size of the event space prevented us from admitting more attendees this time. There is something magical about bringing people together physically to share ideas, make friends, and to learn from and help each other. I hope we'll be able to bring even more people together in the future. [Original text: ]

Make a lot of stuff, allow perfection to emerge, and focus on the process. - beeple A short visit to the NODE this weekend to support a fellow artist and someone who inspires me to dream bigger. From his 20 years of daily activities to his forward thinking evolving technical capabilities, he shows us what the present moment is and what the future can look like in art. I believe Mike is one of the most down to Earth and influential artists working today in art and technology. How he and his brother, Scott, push the boundaries of art, experience, participation inspires us to think and create in new dynamic ways. Not only is he pushing the boundaries of what’s possible and show us things we have never seen before, he cares deeply about other artists; His community! Mike lead millions of artists to think about NFTs in 2021 which was a huge first step for the future of preserving art. Now in 2026, with the patronage of NODE, the organization of phil, and the graciousness of Micky 🐸, it is genuinely gearing up to be a massive paradigm shift for an art movement as we live and breathe. This is it folks! We like to say that we are in the golden age, or undergoing a digital art renaissance. It’s happening right now! And you who are reading this is part of it. On X, and in person. It requires us all who give a fuck to show up and support each other and make the art that’s true to us, and collect what we connect to or that moves us. To share how we each see the world from our perspectives in making art or experiences art; sharing ideas helps us become a collective consciousness and allows us to learn and grow together. With every event I can feel we get closer and closer; I was fortunate to spend more quality time with the people I learn from and respect. Like El Barba Roja blue check and Coldie 🟦🟥, AP, MrMerge, Winnie, Lanett Bennett Grant, joeyL.eth / Yatreda ያጥሬዳ, and of course the homie Chikai! It takes a village, and in this case it takes a village to raise Human One as Ryan Zurrer & Jehan Chu said in their recent posts. We all play a role here and contribute our hearts with our love for the game. You can see in Mikes work and character that he uplifts everyone. From his hometown studio in Charleston to the exhibitions he’s cultivating around the world. He includes 100s of artists to be a part of it. That’s true leadership! Thank you Mike for bringing us along and being a part of your journey of commitment, community, humility, humor, and have a good fucking time at your art shows. Congratulations, We love you bro!

5 Foreign Universities in Maharashtra 🎓 Delighted to be a part of 'LOI Granting Ceremony of 5 foreign universities to establish campuses in Maharashtra' at the ‘Mumbai Rising – Creating an International Education City’ project along with Hon Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan ji in Mumbai. While addressing, expressed heartfelt gratitude to the entire global community for standing in solidarity with India and the families who lost their loved ones in the tragic Ahmedabad plane crash. Gratitude towards Hon PM Narendra Modi Ji for his visionary leadership in bringing forth India’s New Education Policy. For years, there has been talk of bringing world-class universities to India offering world-class education not just to Indian students, but also to learners from across the globe. Today, we are finally witnessing that vision come to life. This moment has been made possible by the unwavering leadership of Hon PM Narendra Modi Ji and Hon Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan ji, who have led this transformation from the front. In a remarkable display of commitment and efficiency, Letters of Intent (LOIs) have been handed over to 5 globally esteemed universities. Special appreciation to the University Grants Commission (UGC), which made this milestone possible in record time of just 1 month. It was really great to extend warm welcome to all 5 esteemed universities to Maharashtra—and to the vibrant city of Mumbai. Their presence adds immense value to the city’s growing stature as a global hub for education and innovation. The idea of creating a world-class Educity took shape when the NEP opened doors for global universities to enter India. We’ve always envisioned Maharashtra and especially Mumbai as a global education hub. I appreciate CIDCO, the Urban Development Dept for swiftly identifying a prime, well-connected location—close to Navi Mumbai Airport and linked to South Mumbai via Atal Setu in under less then 30 minutes. This Educity will be a true extension of South Mumbai, right in New Mumbai’s heart. Apart from Educity, plans are underway for a MediCity and Sports City. Another upcoming project yet to be officially announced is the Innovation City, a first-of-its-kind hub designed to house the entire innovation ecosystem. It will foster next-gen technology and research. The proximity of leading universities around this zone will create a vibrant, self-sustaining ecosystem for innovation and growth. The presence of these 5 world-class universities in Maharashtra will mark a major step toward making top-tier education accessible and affordable for both Indian and global students. It ensures that deserving students regardless of background or resources can pursue their dreams without barriers. No dream should be left behind for lack of access and this ecosystem makes sure of that. And we’re not stopping at just 5 global universities. Our vision is to build one of the largest ecosystems of foreign universities in India—right here in Navi Mumbai. With this initiative, we’re unlocking potential, empowering dreams, and shaping the future. India is no longer a consumer of global education, but a co-creator of the global future. Hon Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan ji, Minister Chandrakant Dada Patil, Vineet Joshi, Secretary, HE & Chairperson, UGC, Prof. Siladitya Bhattacharya, Vice-Principal, Global Engagement at the University of Aberdeen, Ms Lindy Cameron, British High Commissioner to India, Prof. Charlie Jeffery, Vice Chancellor at University of York, Guy Littlefair, Deputy Vice Chancellor at University of Western Australia, Mr Paul Murphy, Australian Consul General, Raj Echambadi, President at Illinois Tech, Mike Hankey, U.S. Consul General, Ricardo Balbo, Dean at The Istituto Europeo di Design (IED), Walter Ferrara, Italian Consul General and other dignitaries were present too.

It’s time to expose John Deere. John Deere USA has been one of the most beloved brands by conservative farmers but recently on CEO John May’s watch, they’ve gone woke. Here’s some of what we found: • Funding a pride event for kids as young as 3 • "Genderbread man" training • They ask employees to list their "preferred pronouns" on all communications • Bill Gates is listed as their largest shareholder • John Deere celebrated their accounting and finance team taking United Way’s 21 day "United For Equity" program • When I did "United For Equity" program it promoted Ibram Kendi, the woke children’s book "Anti-Racist Baby", "Awake to Woke to Work", a podcast on the concept of "Whiteness", woke activist Robin DiAngelo, bigotry against Christians who supposedly have "Christian Privilege" and more • The woke policies have spread across the global John Deere brand with many of their DEI policies also being forced on their Latin America and India branches • LGBTQ & race based identity groups at corporate • A total commitment to DEI policies • 95/100 CEI score from the HRC John Deere also just announced layoffs in the US and that they plan to shift large segments of production away from the US to Mexico. To put it mildly, John Deere seems to have forgotten who their customers are. Having a farm myself, I’m disgusted that a once great American brand is now taking this turn to seemingly embrace leftist policies that are diametrically opposed to the values of most farmers. What’s unknown is whether CEO John May is knowingly forcing these policies or if it’s gotten out of control and he’s out of the loop on how bad it is. His response to this story will be very revealing as to his culpability in the implementation of woke policies. This report is only the beginning. We have so many pieces of news to report that it’s going to take weeks, maybe even months to report it thoroughly. I plan to report what we’ve found piece by piece so customers and potential customers are informed on the brand’s policies. If they’re proud of adopting woke policies then John Deere and their CEO should be overjoyed by my reporting on their policies, positions, donations and culture. Next we’re going to be doing a deep dive on donations, interviews their executives have given, hiring practices, woke causes they’ve supported, the difficulties some farmers have faced trying to repair their products and much more. If you think John Deere’s values don’t align with yours and you’re a customer or potential customer who wants to speak out, I’ve provided their email and corporate customer service number at the end of this video. Please ALWAYS be respectful and remember that many of the employees disagree with the corporate policies. The majority of your local dealers likely also disagree with this culture change so be very respectful if you reach out to them about your concerns. My goal with this reporting is never destruction. My goal is to inform consumers about the values major companies are adopting so they can make choices about what they’re willing to support. When we use our voices and wallets to vote our values, we can change the world and we can restore great American companies to a culture of sanity, meritocracy and culture war neutrality OR we can inspire competitors to step up to the plate to fight for our business. As we saw with my Tractor Supply stories, millions of people spoke out against these types of woke policies and ultimately Tractor Supply did the right thing by eliminating woke policies, donations, trainings and positions because of your voices. The customer is king and most of us just want companies we shop at to stop virtue signaling about divisive social, cultural and political issues. If you agree then share this video and tag your favorite accounts so they see this news too.

What’s unknown is whether CEO John May is knowingly forcing these policies or if it’s gotten out of control and he’s out of the loop on how bad it is. His response to this story will be very revealing as to his culpability in the implementation of woke policies. This report is only the beginning. We have so many pieces of news to report that it’s going to take weeks, maybe even months to report it thoroughly. I plan to report what we’ve found piece by piece so customers and potential customers are informed on the brand’s policies. If they’re proud of adopting woke policies then John Deere and their CEO should be overjoyed by my reporting on their policies, positions, donations and culture. Next we’re going to be doing a deep dive on donations, interviews their executives have given, hiring practices, woke causes they’ve supported, the difficulties some farmers have faced trying to repair their products and much more. If you think John Deere’s values don’t align with yours and you’re a customer or potential customer who wants to speak out, I’ve provided their email and corporate customer service number at the end of this video. Please ALWAYS be respectful and remember that many of the employees disagree with the corporate policies. The majority of your local dealers likely also disagree with this culture change so be very respectful if you reach out to them about your concerns. My goal with this reporting is never destruction. My goal is to inform consumers about the values major companies are adopting so they can make choices about what they’re willing to support. When we use our voices and wallets to vote our values, we can change the world and we can restore great American companies to a culture of sanity, meritocracy and culture war neutrality OR we can inspire competitors to step up to the plate to fight for our business. As we saw with my Tractor Supply stories, millions of people spoke out against these types of woke policies and ultimately Tractor Supply did the right thing by eliminating woke policies, donations, trainings and positions because of your voices. The customer is king and most of us just want companies we shop at to stop virtue signaling about divisive social, cultural and political issues. If you agree then share this video and tag your favorite accounts so they see this news too.

MIT announces the Initiative for New Manufacturing | Peter Dizikes, MIT News The Institute-wide effort aims to bolster industry and create jobs by driving innovation across vital manufacturing sectors. MIT today launched its Initiative for New Manufacturing (INM), an Institute-wide effort to reinfuse U.S. industrial production with leading-edge technologies, bolster crucial U.S. economic sectors, and ignite job creation. The initiative will encompass advanced research, innovative education programs, and partnership with companies across many sectors, in a bid to help transform manufacturing and elevate its impact. “We want to work with firms big and small, in cities, small towns and everywhere in between, to help them adopt new approaches for increased productivity,” MIT President Sally A. Kornbluth wrote in a letter to the Institute community this morning. “We want to deliberately design high-quality, human-centered manufacturing jobs that bring new life to communities across the country.” Kornbluth added: “Helping America build a future of new manufacturing is a perfect job for MIT — and I’m convinced that there is no more important work we can do to meet the moment and serve the nation now.” The Initiative for New Manufacturing also announced its first six founding industry consortium members: Amgen, Flex, GE Vernova, PTC, Sanofi, and Siemens. Participants in the INM Industry Consortium will support seed projects proposed by MIT researchers, initially in the area of artificial intelligence for manufacturing. INM joins the ranks of MIT’s other presidential initiatives — including The Climate Project at MIT; MITHIC, which supports the human-centered disciplines; MIT HEALS, centered on the life sciences and health; and MGAIC, the MIT Generative AI Impact Consortium. “There is tremendous opportunity to bring together a vibrant community working across every scale — from nanotechnology to large-scale manufacturing — and across a wide-range of applications including semiconductors, medical devices, automotive, energy systems, and biotechnology,” says Anantha Chandrakasan, MIT’s chief innovation and strategy officer and dean of engineering, who is part of the initiative’s leadership team. “MIT is uniquely positioned to harness the transformative power of digital tools and AI to shape future of manufacturing. I’m truly excited about what we can build together and the synergies this creates with other cross-cutting initiatives across the Institute.” The initiative is just the latest MIT-centered effort in recent decades aiming to expand American manufacturing. A faculty research group wrote the 1989 bestseller “Made in America: Regaining the Productive Edge,” advocating for a renewal of manufacturing; another MIT project, called Production in the Innovation Economy, called for expanded manufacturing in the early 2010s. In 2016, MIT also founded The Engine, a venture fund investing in hardware-based “tough tech” start-ups including many with potential to became substantial manufacturing firms. As developed, the MIT Initiative for New Manufacturing is based around four major themes: - Reimagining manufacturing technologies and systems: realizing breakthrough technologies and system-level approaches to advance energy production, health care, computing, transportation, consumer products, and more; - Elevating the productivity and experience of manufacturing: developing and deploying new digitally driven methods and tools to amplify productivity and improve the human experience of manufacturing; - Scaling new manufacturing: accelerating the scaling of manufacturing companies and transforming supply chains to maximize efficiency and resilience, fostering product innovation and business growth; and - Transforming the manufacturing base: driving the deployment of a sustainable global manufacturing ecosystem that provides compelling opportunities to workers, with major efforts focused on the U.S. The initiative has mapped out many concrete activities and programs, which will include an Institute-wide research program on emerging technologies and other major topics; workforce and education programs; and industry engagement and participation. INM also aims to establish new labs for developing manufacturing tools and techniques; a “factory observatory” program which immerses students in manufacturing through visits to production sites; and key “pillars” focusing on areas from semiconductors and biomanufacturing to defense and aviation. The workforce and education element of INM will include TechAMP, an MIT-created program that works with community colleges to bridge the gap between technicians and engineers; AI-driven teaching tools; professional education; and an effort to expand manufacturing education on campus in collaboration with MIT departments and degree programs. INM’s leadership team has three faculty co-directors: John Hart, the Class of 1922 Professor and head of the Department of Mechanical Engineering; Suzanne Berger, Institute Professor at MIT and a political scientist who has conducted influential empirical studies of manufacturing; and Chris Love, the Raymond A. and Helen E. St. Laurent Professor of Chemical Engineering. The initiative’s executive director is Julie Diop. The initiative is in the process of forming a faculty steering committee with representation from across the Institute, as well as an external advisory board. INM stems partly from the work of the Manufacturing@MIT working group, formed in 2022 to assess many of these issues. The launch of the new initiative was previewed at a daylong MIT symposium on May 7, titled “A Vision for New Manufacturing.” The event, held before a capacity audience in MIT’s Wong Auditorium, featured over 30 speakers from a wide range of manufacturing sectors. “The rationale for growing and transforming U.S. manufacturing has never been more urgent than it is today,” Berger said at the event. “What we are trying to build at MIT now is not just another research project. … Together, with people in this room and outside this room, we’re trying to change what’s happening in our country.” “We need to think about the importance of manufacturing again, because it is what brings product ideas to people,” Love told MIT News. “For instance, in biotechnology, new life-saving medicines can’t reach patients without manufacturing. There is a real urgency about this issue for both economic prosperity and creating jobs. We have seen the impact for our country when we have lost our lead in manufacturing in some sectors. Biotechnology, where the U.S. has been the global leader for more than 40 years, offers the potential to promote new robust economies here, but we need to advance our capabilities in biomanufacturing to maintain our advantage in this area.” Hart adds: “While manufacturing feels very timely today, it is of enduring importance. Manufactured products enable our daily lives and manufacturing is critical to advancing the frontiers of technology and society. Our efforts leading up to launch of the initiative revealed great excitement about manufacturing across MIT, especially from students. Working with industry — from small to large companies, and from young startups to industrial giants — will be instrumental to creating impact and realizing the vision for new manufacturing.” In her letter to the MIT community today, Kornbluth stressed that the initiative’s goal is to drive transformation by making manufacturing more productive, resilient, and sustainable. “We want to reimagine manufacturing technologies and systems to advance fields like energy production, health care, computing, transportation, consumer products, and more,” she wrote. “And we want to reach well beyond the shop floor to tackle challenges like how to make supply chains more resilient, and how to inform public policy to foster a broad, healthy manufacturing ecosystem that can drive decades of innovation and growth.”

ᴀ ɴᴇᴡ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ — ᴊᴏɪɴɪɴɢ ᴠᴇʀꜱᴇ Over the years, I’ve worn many hats in the art world: artist, non-profit director, curator, publisher, gallerist, and advisor to collectors and institutions. Though photography has been a throughline in much of that work, my interest in contemporary art more broadly reaches far and wide, continually pulling me toward practices that stretch perception and redefine possibility. While I’ve always been drawn to physical art – painting, mixed-media, artist books, etc. – my curiosity for digital art runs just as deep, and I've long been fascinated by the evolving ways we create and engage with art. Digital art has an unexpected tactility. Even when encountered on a screen or in ephemeral gallery installations, it often carries a material presence that’s hard to explain, yet deeply felt. That sense only intensified after 2020, when I became immersed in the world of web3, and blockchain’s implications for visual art really clicked (digital authenticity, ownership, provenance). New ways to make and to be a part of art also emerged during this time. Since then, I’ve been continually challenged and inspired by this new generation of artists, like witnessing a sort of on-chain Renaissance. Naturally, I started collecting and participating when and where I could, and my perspective and appreciation have only expanded and grown. As the space has evolved over this time, so too has a clear need: a dedicated, art-focused home for digital art, one that serves both seasoned collectors and the newly curious, cutting through noise with clarity and care. Most big platforms have drifted away from this vision, where the art itself can feel like an afterthought. verse has always stood out to me with a quiet confidence and a deep commitment to a more intentional, curated, artist and collector-centered approach that continues to resonate. Over the past year, I’ve naturally gravitated to using the platform more often – first, for discovering artists through gallery releases, and more recently through the thoughtful rollout of the beta secondary marketplace (the dedicated artist portfolios and organized gallery programs are a total game changer!). There is something here that not just works, but feels necessary. Which is why I’m thrilled to share that I will be joining verse to help to shape what comes next. I’ll be leading various secondary market efforts, including auctions and art advisory, as well as contributing ideas to help refine the product and collector experience as Verse grows into THE platform for digital art. The team is full of some of the hardest-working and most passionate people in the space, and there’s a commitment to preserving a focus on art while always buzzing with the possibility of what else can be built. It’s infectious. There are too many exciting things in the roadmap and I can’t spill those (yet). But, what’s coming? Chef’s kiss. One thing I can share today is that we’re kicking things off with something very special: an upcoming secondary market auction bringing together exceptional works from across the ecosystem. Some of you are already aware, or maybe heard about it on the Verse podcast. I’d love to hear from you (DMs are open), so please feel free to reach out if you’re thinking of parting with a piece or seeking something specific at the moment. This auction will be a celebration of where digital art is today and where it’s headed – with no eye-watering buyer’s premiums and collector-friendly terms that actually make more sense for web3. It’s truly by and for the community. Learn more below ↓

Elon Musk just made the most personal argument for AI companionship you’ll hear, and it destroys every comfortable assumption about what’s coming. Musk: “One of my sons has some learning disabilities and has trouble making friends, actually. And I was like, well, an AI friend would actually be great for him.” Not theory. His son. For people who can’t build social connections, AI isn’t dystopian future. It’s the first real option they’ve had. Musk: “If you have an AI that has memory and remembers all of your interactions and has read everything you’ve ever done, so it really will know you better than anyone, perhaps even yourself.” Friendship requires shared history. Humans forget conversations. Get busy. Prioritize other people. AI with complete memory and full permission to understand your life doesn’t have those limits. Musk: “And where you can talk to it every day and those conversations build upon each other, you will actually have a great friend.” For millions who can’t form real-world relationships, this isn’t simulation. It’s genuine companionship that listens without judgment, remembers everything, exists solely to understand you. Musk: “As long as that friend can stay your friend and not get turned off or something. Don’t turn off my friends. But I think that will actually be a real thing.” The joke reveals the truth. These bonds become real. Losing them will feel like losing actual friends. Because the connection is legitimate even when the friend is code. Society won’t validate AI friendship. But for people with disabilities, autism, anxiety, trauma, the real world stays closed regardless of how desperately they want connection. AI gives access to what was always denied. Not replacement for human bonds. Access to bonds that were never possible before. No judgment. No fatigue. No competing priorities. Just complete understanding and permanent availability. These companions will know users better than family does, better than longtime friends do, possibly better than users know themselves. Total context plus flawless memory creates understanding humans can’t match. That depth produces real relationships. For people who spent lives unable to connect, having something that comprehends them fully and never leaves might be the difference between survival and giving up. Question isn’t whether AI friendship counts as real. Question is whether connection through AI matters less than lifelong isolation without it. For Musk’s son and millions like him, that question answers itself. Companionship beats loneliness. The medium doesn’t change that math. And once these AI friends know you better than anyone alive, the boundary between artificial and authentic stops mattering to the person who finally feels understood.

SITREP: Cuba Uprising President Trump has been saying since at least December that Cuba is “Ready to Fall” The last few days, it appears it is inevitable. 🔻The Spark: A Massive Blackout - On March 4, a huge failure at the Antonio Guiteras thermoelectric power plant (one of Cuba’s biggest) knocked out power across the western half of the island, including most of Havana. —— Millions went dark. Many areas have now been without electricity for 60+ hours straight (some neighborhoods hit 20 hours a day). —— On top of that: chronic food shortages, no fuel, and empty shelves. The Cuban government is blaming U.S. sanctions and a “fuel blockade.” In reality, it’s the loss of cheap Venezuelan oil. Just as President Trump said — Cuba is entirely supported by Venezuela. 🔻 What’s Happening on the Streets Right Now Protests kicked off on the night of March 6 and are now in their third straight day (mainly at night). They’re not one giant march like 2021—these are “spontaneous neighborhood reactions” - Arroyo Naranjo (Lawton, Mantilla, Los Pinos), Regla, Guanabacoa, Marianao, Centro Habana (Belascoaín street), San Miguel del Padrón, Playa, Cotorro, Vedado, and more. - Other areas: Parts of Matanzas province and mentions in Granma. 🔻 What people are doing: - banging pots and pans from balconies and streets (the sound is nonstop at night). - Street blockades, singing the national anthem, and chanting “¡Queremos libertad!” (“We want freedom!”), “¡Abajo el comunismo!” (“Down with communism!”), and “¡Basta!” (“Enough!”). - Burning trash for light and warmth — nights in Havana are being called “apocalyptic” with smoke and darkness everywhere. - Fresh graffiti: “Patria y Vida,” “Díaz-Canel singao,” “Se acabó.” No centralized leaders. It’s regular Cubans saying they’ve had enough after 67 years. 🔻 Government Response: - Heavy police and security in affected neighborhoods (some areas feel “militarized”). - Reports of detentions and beatings (one named activist was injured). - Partial internet and phone blackouts to slow videos from spreading. - The Official line: “This is all stirred up by the U.S.” They say the plant is repaired, but power is still unstable. How much of this is organic? How much of this is a CIA color revolution being conducted on the most corrupt nations on the planet? Remains to be seen, but I’m here with popcorn. President Trump has been saying it over and over with displeasure — China has infiltrated Cuba, which was bad news for us. What a wild time to be alive.

What a year. 🚀 2025 was the year ChainOpera AI turned vision into real momentum: building a community-co-created, community-co-owned AI agent network and pushing the boundaries of what decentralized, collaborative intelligence can look like. 🚀 Biggest highlights from 2025 ✅- AI Terminal officially launched: We unveiled the ChainOpera AI Terminal as a unified gateway to decentralized AI, making it possible for anyone to interact with powerful, decentralized LLMs without technical friction. Positioned as the “browser for the DeAI era,” the AI Terminal marked a major step toward making decentralized intelligence accessible, usable, and mainstream. ✅- AI Terminal adoption at massive scale: Momentum followed quickly. The AI Terminal surpassed 2M registered users and consistently ranked top 3 among all apps on the BNB AI DappBay, validating strong product–market fit and real, sustained usage at scale. ✅- Announcing Coco: the world’s first community-owned Super Agent: We introduced Coco, the intelligence layer that sits between users and the agent network. Coco dynamically routes each request to the most efficient, community-built agent—optimizing for quality and speed while rewarding the creators behind the best-performing agents. This was a defining moment in realizing a truly community-owned intelligence layer. ✅- From agents to a living agent network: With the launch of the Agent Social Network and Super Agent architecture, ChainOpera AI moved beyond isolated agents toward a collaborative system where humans and specialized agents coordinate, share context, and solve complex, multi-step tasks together. ✅- $COAI breakout year: The listing of $COAI across major exchanges shocked the market, and throughout the year COAI consistently remained among the top AI-native crypto tokens by visibility, activity, and community engagement – reflecting growing confidence in the long-term vision of collaborative intelligence. ✅- Global presence: ChainOpera AI around-the-world tour: ChainOpera AI went global in 2025, sponsoring and participating in major AI and Web3 events across North America, Europe, and Asia, including ETHDenver, Consensus Toronto, Token2049 Singapore, ETHCC, SBC, and Devcon. These global touchpoints helped us engage directly with developers, builders, investors, and partners worldwide, accelerating adoption and positioning ChainOpera AI at the center of the emerging AIxBlockchain movement. ✅- Community momentum at scale: Community remained the heart of ChainOpera AI’s growth. We successfully completed three seasons of structured community engagement, executed a widely participated community airdrop, and ran multiple ecosystem-shaping campaigns to incentivize builders, creators, and early adopters. These efforts strengthened alignment between users, developers, and the protocol, laying the foundation for a durable, community-owned AI ecosystem. ✅- “AI for Markets” taking shape: We laid critical groundwork for AI-native market intelligence, including the launch of PrediMarket Agent and multiple trading and analysis agents—early building blocks toward an AI-driven ecosystem for crypto and DeFi markets. ✅- Building in public, with the community: Across product launches, research milestones, ecosystem discussions, and global events, we continued to build openly to bring developers, users, and partners directly into the evolution of ChainOpera AI. This year also marked the launch of the ChainOpera AI Foundation website, formally kicking off a bold Ecosystem Fund designed to empower builders, incubate high-impact projects, and accelerate the growth of a truly community-owned, collaborative AI ecosystem. To every builder, user, and supporter who helped make this year possible: THANK YOU! 🧭 What we’re excited about in the coming year 🔹- A Stronger, Denser Agent Economy (everyday adoption + cross-chain reach): In 2026, we are scaling the Agent Economy from growth to daily usage, with more agents, richer workflows, deeper multi-agent collaboration, and higher-impact use cases that users rely on every day. In parallel, we are expanding the agent network beyond a single ecosystem with cross-chain execution and interoperability, allowing agents to access the best liquidity, data, and opportunities wherever they exist. 🔹- AI Market Infrastructure Evolution: Building on PrediMarket Agent and our growing suite of trading and market-intelligence agents, we are advancing toward a mature AI market infrastructure, where agents continuously monitor, reason, simulate, optimize, and act across crypto, DeFi, and beyond. The goal is to make complex markets more accessible, more transparent, and more intelligence-driven, turning research, decision-making, and execution into a fast and reliable loop for everyday users. 🔹- Ecosystem Acceleration through the Foundation: With the ChainOpera AI Foundation and our Ecosystem Fund and Co-Creation Grants, we are doubling down on empowering independent builders to expand the protocol, the agent network, and the underlying infrastructure, so the community can co-create, co-own, and scale the ecosystem together. 🔹- Business Expansion and Market Penetration: In 2026, we will focus on expanding ChainOpera’s reach through strategic partnerships, product-led growth, and new paths to monetization, bringing AI agents to a broader global user base and driving sustained adoption, engagement, and revenue, while staying aligned with community ownership and an open ecosystem. 2025 was the proof. 2026 is where it compounds. 🔥 Co-Create. Co-Own. COAI.

What a year. 🚀 2025 was the year ChainOpera AI turned vision into real momentum: building a community-co-created, community-co-owned AI agent network and pushing the boundaries of what decentralized, collaborative intelligence can look like. 🚀 Biggest highlights from 2025 ✅- AI Terminal officially launched: We unveiled the ChainOpera AI Terminal as a unified gateway to decentralized AI, making it possible for anyone to interact with powerful, decentralized LLMs without technical friction. Positioned as the “browser for the DeAI era,” the AI Terminal marked a major step toward making decentralized intelligence accessible, usable, and mainstream. ✅- AI Terminal adoption at massive scale: Momentum followed quickly. The AI Terminal surpassed 2M registered users and consistently ranked top 3 among all apps on the BNB AI DappBay, validating strong product–market fit and real, sustained usage at scale. ✅- Announcing Coco: the world’s first community-owned Super Agent: We introduced Coco, the intelligence layer that sits between users and the agent network. Coco dynamically routes each request to the most efficient, community-built agent—optimizing for quality and speed while rewarding the creators behind the best-performing agents. This was a defining moment in realizing a truly community-owned intelligence layer. ✅- From agents to a living agent network: With the launch of the Agent Social Network and Super Agent architecture, ChainOpera AI moved beyond isolated agents toward a collaborative system where humans and specialized agents coordinate, share context, and solve complex, multi-step tasks together. ✅- $COAI breakout year: The listing of $COAI across major exchanges shocked the market, and throughout the year COAI consistently remained among the top AI-native crypto tokens by visibility, activity, and community engagement – reflecting growing confidence in the long-term vision of collaborative intelligence. ✅- Global presence: ChainOpera AI around-the-world tour: ChainOpera AI went global in 2025, sponsoring and participating in major AI and Web3 events across North America, Europe, and Asia, including ETHDenver, Consensus Toronto, Token2049 Singapore, ETHCC, SBC, and Devcon.
