“The reason I want a trial is I can’t think of a better venue where you can take day after day…where we just lay out the evidence. Painstakingly, exhaustively, accurately, to lay this out for the American public, for historical record of it…” - Senator Ron Johnson AMAC John Solomon

Palantir CTO Shyam Sankar says AI doomers are lying to the American public: "You have dual narratives— one that's wildly dystopic, that this tech is going to destroy jobs and purpose." "The other is wildly utopic— where it's going to usher in a new era where we'll be reduced to the equivalent of a house cat." "Both of these miss a fundamental point of human agency. The future of AI hasn't been determined. It is being decided every day by the actions we take." "Humans are going to use AI to do things. Will we use it to build trinkets of marginal value, or to actually reindustrialize the country?" "Net— you have job creation." "We're too enamored with AI as a concept as opposed to AI as a tool for the American worker." "Every single one of these frontier labs is in America... it was born here in America." "It matches the American culture. Look no further than Europe to see how their approach to AI has been essentially to regulate it to irrelevance." Via Fox News

Australia needs to take advantage of AI before it takes advantage of us. This is quite the show. The progress in AI technology as demonstrated by these robots is both impressive and scary. Impressive as to how far AI technology has come, and scary in the sense of the potential job losses AI will bring. Australia really needs to get up to speed when it comes to manufacturing and technology skills. The sooner we up skill our workforce to ensure we are not beholden to foreign controlled AI the better.

History will show that this was the moment when we had the opportunity to lay the groundwork for the future of AI — a future where AI is used to advance the public interest. That is the future President Donald J. Trump and I are building.

AI investors should listen to this $IREN CEO Dan Roberts on the future of compute: “If you ask Chat GPT to create an image how long does it take? Maybe a minute. What if it took 10 seconds? Would people generate more or less images? Of course more” Speed & efficiency drive demand This is the future of humanity

Cursor CEO Michael Truell: Programming in the future might not mean programming with an AI helper, but in a new language entirely. "There is a future version of the world where the way you interact with AI is a little bit less like it's a human helper that you're delegating work to... and instead, it's a little bit more of an advance in compiler or interpreter technology." "It can lead you to a world where programming languages actually change. They can start to be a little bit more about what you want and a little bit less about how you do it." "There is a world where direct manipulation of the UI starts to play a little bit more into it." Michael Truell with Patrick Collison

Virtual try-on is the future of retail. Soon, we won’t even remember a time when we shopped without it. With Doji I created a fashion campaign with my favorite new products with myself as the model, an AI generated digital twin, and brought it to life additional AI video tools. Open to see more experiments and use cases for this technology:

Our community-owned AI model becomes more powerful with every person who joins the movement. By inviting just one person to Action Model, you're helping build an AI future owned by the people who train it, not controlled by a handful of billionaires. Right now, millions of people are giving away valuable AI training data to Big Tech for free, often without even realizing it. Imagine if even a fraction of those people chose to build a community-owned alternative instead. That's how we change the future of AI. Not by fighting technology. But by changing who benefits from it. Together, we have the opportunity to build a fairer AI future.
