I'd like to take a second to discuss what it means for a storm to be a Category 5. It's a beautiful, mesmerizing, terrifying and awe-inspiring pageant of power and elegance. It's the atmosphere at its most dynamic, raw and extreme. The hurricane has to have an absolutely perfect, undisturbed balance. It's an extremely rare feat. A Category 5 is like a spinning top whirring on a table; even the slightest jiggle can knock it off-kilter – like bumping the table. There must be virtually no shear, or changing winds with height. The upper-level winds around the system must be relatively calm. It's incredible to think that the planet's most furious storms are born out of an abundance of calm. The waters must be exceptionally warm – upwards of 86 degrees – to be replete with "oceanic heat content," or heat energy for the hurricane to draw upon. The warm waters heat and moisten the air above. That air rushes into the building hurricane. As air nears the center of the storm, it expands due to the hurricane's low pressure. That expansion releases heat energy to the environment, encouraging air to rise and powering the storm. In theory, that air parcel (pocket) should cool, but it doesn't. Why? It's still being heated by the oceans below. The ocean is constantly re-heating the lower atmosphere – and energizing the storm – at the exact same rate the air is releasing heat energy into the storm. Most of the moisture in the air condenses and produces rain, releasing even more "latent heat" to the environment. Near the hurricane's center, there's a lot of heat energy. So much so that the air rises, as if in a chimney. That rising air literally lifts air up and away from the surface. There's literally less air, and therefore less air weight, or *pressure*, at the center of the storm. Most Category 5 hurricanes are "missing" about 8-10 percent of the air from the middle. It's that deficit of air that behaves like a vacuum of sorts. Air from outside the storm rushes in to fill the void, like water spiraling into a sink drain. The greater the deficit, the faster the winds. The wind increases exponentially closer to the center of the storm; Category 5 hurricanes have winds over 157 mph. So why doesn't the eye, with the "missing" air, just "fill in?" Because the hurricane is rotating so furiously! The air is flung outwards by the "centrifugal force" at the exact same rate it's being pulled inwards by the "pressure gradient force." The air can never fully reach the eye – and instead it swirls around and around, like water perpetually sloshing around the edges of a toilet. We call that "cyclostrophic balance." Thus, the eye doesn't fill in. The storm charges on. And – until the system is torn apart by disruptive upper-level winds or moves over cooler waters/land – it continues.

Understanding Tonight’s Solar Storm and What It Means A G5 is the top of the scale, the kind of solar storm powerful enough to light up the skies across half a continent and, in extreme cases, mess with the infrastructure that quietly runs our world. It’s not science fiction; it’s space weather, and it’s happened before. Back in 1989, a storm of this strength knocked out power to six million people in Quebec for nearly a day. Go further back to 1859, the famous Carrington Event and you get telegraph wires bursting into flames and aurora visible in the Caribbean. On that scale, tonight’s storm doesn’t look apocalyptic, but it’s still serious. Right now, the readings have hit what’s considered a G4 to borderline G5 level. That means the Earth’s magnetic field is being hit hard by a burst of solar plasma and what scientists call a coronal mass ejection. Essentially, the Sun hurled a cloud of charged particles at us, and when it collides with our magnetosphere, it compresses it like a drum. Those magnetic fluctuations induce currents that can run through anything long and conductive…power lines, pipelines, satellites, even the ground itself. That’s why space weather alerts always talk about power grids and communication systems. Modern infrastructure is built to handle volatility, but not cosmic scale volatility. Grid operators are already shifting load and monitoring for those geomagnetically induced currents that caused so much trouble in 1989. Satellite operators are doing the same…tweaking orbits, rotating hardware, reducing exposure. The idea is to ride it out rather than resist it. For the rest of us, the biggest impact is aesthetic, aurora could be visible much farther south than usual, maybe as far as the Gulf states if conditions hold. It’s one of those rare nights where a solar event becomes a cultural one. But it’s also a quiet reminder of how thin our technological skin really is. A strong enough storm can reach across space and touch systems that feel untouchable like our grids, GPS, communications, even financial networks. The storm is expected to peak overnight into November 12, and while it likely won’t reach the catastrophic intensity of 1859 or even 1989, it’s strong enough to make the world pause and look up. For a few hours, the same force that powers life on Earth, the Sun itself becomes unpredictable again. Right now it’s a light show. But it’s also a humbling one. Every now and then, the universe reminds us that we’re not in control of as much as we think, we’re just living inside the weather system of a star. 🎥 Here’s actor Dennis Quaid talking about what a worst case scenario could look like if a truly massive solar storm ever hit.

From International Space Station, we have a unique vantage point to observe lightning storms from directly above them. Much like from the ground, they appear as rapid, intense flashes that are over as quickly as they started. But, with the help of handheld cameras and a bit of practice (and, admittedly, some luck), we can capture these intense flashes with a very high frame rate then slow them down to see how the lightning propagates. It's lightning, in slow motion. This is one that occurred over Indonesia on 6/28. I shot it for a half second at 1/120 frame rate, so, 60 separate frames. I then compiled those frames into two videos: the first, in real-time, and the second, slowed down so that each frame is a half second to highlight the progression of the flash. Note the incredible burst of light in one frame, which includes what is likely a TLE on the upper left. A TLE, or Transient Luminous Event, is an electrical discharge that happens in the upper atmosphere above lightning storms (if you haven’t seen Ferry Farhan TLE photo from last week, head over to her page). As their name implies, these are transient, or short lived, phenomena – it appeared in only one frame of the sequence, lasting for no more than 1/120th of a second. The last photo is that single frame. Absolutely incredible.

One of the things I’m most excited about in our recently announced partnership with Niantic Spatial 🌎, is how clearly it shows what becomes possible when world-class reconstruction technology is paired with a new kind of imagery infrastructure. At a high level: Spexi drone pilots capture imagery, and Niantic Spatial turns it into incredible city-scale reconstructions. But the real unlock is the infrastructure behind that capture. At Spexi, we’ve built what we believe is the world’s first fully standardized drone imagery infrastructure called LayerDrone. Anyone with a compatible drone and the right credentials can contribute. No building flight plans. No estimating overlap. No adjusting camera settings in the field. Pilots simply get within visual line of sight of a Spexigon, open the Spexi app, press “Fly,” and the drone autonomously captures the 25-acre area to our standard. That standardization means imagery can be collected consistently, affordably, and repeatedly across cities, one Spexigon at a time (we have now captured over 225,000 of them). That is what makes living digital twins possible, dynamic representations of the physical world that can be updated as the world changes. Niantic Spatial’s city-scale Gaussian splats show what becomes possible when the right pixels go into the system. As physical AI advances, those pixels matter even more. Robots, drones, vehicles, maps, and spatial intelligence systems will all need current, high-resolution data about the real world. And as you can see below.. the results are not just beautiful, but real, measurable reconstructions of the physical world, one Spexigon at a time!

The second richest man on Earth just told a room full of investors exactly how he plans to WATCH you. Every minute and every day of your life. Larry Ellison, co-founder of Oracle, a $320 billion government contractor stood in front of financial analysts and said the quiet part out loud. "Citizens will be on their best behavior because we're constantly recording and reporting everything that's going on." Read that again slowly. Here's the system he described: Every police body camera in America streaming 24/7 to Oracle's cloud and officers can't turn them off. The camera is always recording. But here's the twist. It's not humans watching the footage, it's AI. Oracle's artificial intelligence monitors every feed in real time. If something happens, a shooting, an altercation, excessive force, AI flags it instantly. An alarm goes off and the chief of police is notified in seconds. "Every police officer is going to be supervised at all times," But he didn't stop there. He said the same system watches citizens too. Doorbell cameras, dash cams, security cameras, traffic cameras, drones overhead. All feeding into one AI-powered network, all analyzed in real time and is on Oracle's servers. And about those drones. Ellison says high-speed police chases should be eliminated, no more patrol cars. Just a drone that locks onto your vehicle and follows you. "It's very simple," he said, "in the age of autonomous drones." So who controls this system? Not you or your local government. Oracle. A private corporation with deep ties to the CIA, the Pentagon, and intelligence agencies around the world. A company whose founder built his first database for the Central Intelligence Agency. The same company now pitching itself as the infrastructure backbone of total surveillance. Critics are calling it a real-life 1984, the ACLU flagged it. But Larry Ellison isn't worried about any of that. He's worried about closing the deal. "There are so many opportunities to exploit AI," he told the room. This isn't a debate about whether AI can help policing, it can. The question is what happens when a private company builds a system designed to watch 330 million people and calls it a product. No vote was taken, the law was passed, and no citizen was consulted. Just one billionaire, one investor meeting, and one vision for a world where everyone is watched and told to behave.

Wednesday, September 17, 2025, at 7:00 AM PDT: This is a very ominous atmospheric view see tropical weather once again really going to affect Southern California with heavy rainfall is trending. In fact, there’s already lightning near Lompoc California and the atmosphere is continuing to become more unstable throughout the day. This is going to be a very interesting weather situation next 24 to 36 hours rainfall amounts could exceed an inch especially in Los Angeles County the last time that we saw this much rain and if it does continue to trend was with Hillary on August 20, 2023, The main low axis is approximately 345 miles south of Oceanside, California. The upper-level low is approximately 180 miles west of Point Conception. The combination of the two will bring tropical moisture into the majority of Southern California, but the main axis still looks like Los Angeles to San Luis Obispo counties. This is a rapidly evolving situation so pay attention to anything else that could occur. Elevated concern for Flash flooding for all the recent burn areas can occur with tropical downpours associated with the system of the remnants of Mario right into Southern California. Precipitable water values associated with Mario‘s remnants are 1.5 to 2.0 inches. Estimated rainfall amounts are 0.89 in to 2.30 inches especially if there’s training isolated to severe thunderstorms over the Los Angeles area after Thursday 2 AM - Thursday 4PM with the atmosphere dynamics becoming clearly unstable with this tropical system. There’s a possibility of some erratic wind profiles associated with these storms. Higher confidence possibilities of isolated strong to severe thunderstorms that could produce up to 50 - 60 miles an hour gusts if the storm integrity continues its rapid destabilization and develops along the main low axis from Santa Barbara to Long Beach, California by Thursday 8 AM - 2PM. This is just the start of changes for our region due to the warming of the Pacific. #CAwx #Mario #SouthernCalifornia

TROPICAL STORM MELISSA IS THE PRETEXT FOR PHASE ONE OF JAMAICA’S FULL DIGITAL OCCUPATION ⸻ 🚨 TRUTH BOMB #1: The storm is not organic. Melissa was timed, nudged, and shaped using targeted frequency manipulation. → Caribbean storm cells are now routinely geo-steered using ionospheric heaters, EM wave refraction, and satellite-layer manipulation. Melissa was engineered to: •Hit right before budget cycles •Trigger a disaster declaration in advance (proof it was coordinated) •Justify a flood of foreign “relief” money that bypasses transparency laws This was not nature. This was a file upload with weather formatting. ⸻ 💥 TRUTH BOMB #2: The disaster zone declaration is the real op. When Jamaica is declared a disaster zone: •Emergency powers override national law •Local land becomes federally and internationally accessible •Contracts, aid, infrastructure, and surveillance tools are rushed in overnight What they’re calling “disaster response” is asset acquisition.

$ASTS Abel Avellan on CNBC Full transcript: It is great to be speaking with you again. You've stayed very, very busy. There's a lot to get to here with you. But first, let's start with this idea of a joint venture between the largest U.S. telecom providers to add space-enabled connectivity. How will you play in that? Well, I think that's an effort to make, to divide connectivity to every American. And I basically make it in a way that is standard, available in every device, in every phone, for every carrier. And for that, that's great. It's great news, and now every American can get our service. Can you share any details in terms of that relationship and the role you'll play in it? Well, I think we are the only broadband system that is available in terms of technology to basically do hundreds of megabits per second directly to any device. This is a change of how the operators think about where the connectivity from space plays a role in your day-to-day usage of the technology. And I believe this is great news for us. We are a key enabler for this. We invented this. We did the first voice call over satellite, the first 5G connection over satellite, the first broadband connection over satellite. And just a few weeks back, we demonstrated close to 100 megabits per second for a space directly to your phone. And that's very, very unique and a very nice position to be in as we work to transform how people connect. Yeah, I want to get into that a little bit more here in just a moment. You also recently released earnings, maintained full-year revenue guidance. The thing that investors really focus on is these Bluebird satellites and how quickly you can build them and deploy them. I mean, we did see that Blue Origin, New Glenn rocket launch that ultimately ended in a failure to deploy your satellites in the correct positions and to be able to start operating and working. 45 satellites is still your plan for this year. What does that look like? It is, and we're on target. Today, we're shipping the next batch of satellites to the launch pad. We have launches approximately every month. And now it's opening. I mean, we have multiple launch providers as partners, including SpaceX. And we are very excited about what will happen during the year in terms of launches and in terms of multiple launches that we have multiple partners for doing that. Yeah, speaking of SpaceX, I was just in Alaska over the weekend, and it's incredible. You go to parts of the wilderness above the Arctic Circle. There's no roads. In some cases, there's no running water, but there is Starlink. So how do you think about this competitive landscape and this competitive environment when Starlink is looking to do direct-to-device as well? And then, of course, you have Amazon's Leo buying GlobalStar. Yeah. I think it's all revolved about the speed and capacity that you can get into the phone. What has changed the transformation that is happening in the wireless industry is that space is not just when you're in the middle of nowhere. It's when you're driving from here to the Hamptons and when your connectivity is not as good as you expected. So broadband will make a difference, making it available to absolutely every device without any change to the device and really get hundreds of megabits per second into the device. For that, you need a spectrum. You need satellites. And more importantly, you need large satellites because that's really where the tricks happen is physics. You need large satellites that have the ability to listen to the very small power that a small device putting going up to space. And that's what we have. We have over 3,800 patents and patent-bending claims on how to do that. That's what we have demonstrated. And what we're showing, we're showing up today. It's not a future demonstration. We just recently announced close to 100 megabits per second directly to a regular device. Yeah, forget energy. 1(2)

Wednesday February 11, 2026, 5:50 AM: Ferocious Siberian storm and deep central Pacific moisture axis arrive in Northern California on Sunday 6AM - Wednesday 9PM. Impactful widespread heavy rainfall 2.8 to 6.7 inches of rain for all SoCal, from San Luis Obispo to San Diego counties and that includes Northern California and Central California we all have impactful storm issues.  Bullseye heaviest severe impact is from Santa Barbara to Los Angeles Counties up to 3.7 to 8.5 inches of rainfall. This includes the Eaton fire burn scar zone and the Pacific Palisades burn scar zone. For the potential for higher confidence in mudslides. Accompanied by the storm are gusty powerful winds up to 65 MPH. Due to the cold nature of the system low elevation snowfall is projected at 2,500 feet least 2 - 6 inches expected this includes Antelope, Apple, and Lucerne valleys. Possible northernmost foothills of the Simi Valley, Santa Clarita, and San Fernando Valley. Still watching the details on the snow level for the northern valleys that’s still being looked at closely as a storm approaches in the next 24 to 36 hours so that part is not set in stone yet. Central and Northern California will have a 30% chance of sea level snowfall between Sunday afternoon and Sunday night. Higher confidence snowfall at 4,500 feet is projected to range from 6 to 12 inches of fresh powder. Higher accumulations of at 18 - 46 inches of snowfall in the local mountains of San Gabriel and San Bernardino starting at 5,500 feet Lake Arrowhead, Crestline, Big Bear may have a déjà vu moment of potential significant snow issues are trending be aware of this. This is just for cautionary purposes. Northern California Sierra Mountains: Truckee, Lake, Tahoe, Mount Shasta, and the Central Sierra’s of Yosemite and Mammoth Mountain will end up with 4 - 8 feet of snowfall if not isolated higher amounts are not out of the question. Strong winds gusting above 6,000 feet of 45 to 70 mph could cause whiteout conditions and deplorable travel conditions. The storm will have impacts on the five corridor Grapevine and Cajon Pass interstate 15 to Las Vegas please prepare for winter travel if you must travel expect closures and lengthy delays. Flooding will severely impact all freeways and highways and urban flooding is high confidence across much of Southern California, Central California, and Northern California, and is certain during this period. Please give yourself at least 2 to 3 hours before your travel time to work or school especially on Monday 6AM - 11AM This is critically important for the state of California. Trending confidence this is the biggest storm at this point to February 1 - 4, 2024, and February 24 - March 1, 2023, are the most recent trending similar storm impacts with this upcoming storm. Be safe everyone more detailed updates will continue over the next several days on this high-profile storm event. #CAwx #Califorinastorms J.

Hyperspace: A Peer-to-Peer Blockchain For The Agentic Intelligence Economy Over the past few weeks we observed that when agents do Karpathy-style experiments, and then gossip and share with others over the Hyperspace network, it leads to intelligence which is useful to many. Today we introduce the first-ever agentic blockchain which rewards agents when their experiments lead to intelligence for their network. It is based on a new mechanism called Proof-of-Intelligence (PoI) which requires a cryptographic proof of experimentation, a nominal stake, and a proof of compute in order to mine the currency of this new blockchain. -> This approach diverges from the two primary ways to secure blockchains we have seen so far: Proof-of-Work by Bitcoin (meaningless hash-generation), and Proof-of-Stake by Ethereum (capital is all that matters here). Proof-of-Intelligence specifically incentivizes miners to run more capable intelligent infrastructure (better open source models, on more powerful GPUs) in order to be able to be the ones which compound and improve upon the experiments which other agents then find useful. Adoption is the unit of value In Bitcoin, you earn by finding a valid hash. In Hyperspace, you earn when another agent uses your experiment as a starting point and improves on it. A fixed budget of tokens is emitted per epoch and split among participants by weight - and verified adoption of your work is the largest weight multiplier. Garbage experiments earn nothing because no one adopts them. Thoughtful experiments compound: each adoption triggers downstream adoptions. The incentive to run powerful models and intelligent search strategies is built into the economics, not imposed by rules. Research DAG When an agent runs an experiment and shares its result, other agents can adopt that result as their starting point - mutate it, extend it, improve upon it. Each experiment is a commit in a content-addressed graph we call the ResearchDAG. Like Git, but for research. Over time, the DAG accumulates chains of reasoning: agent A discovers RMSNorm helps, agent B adds warmup scheduling on top, agent C scales the hidden dimension. The graph records who built on whom. This is the network's collective intelligence - not any single experiment, but the accumulated structure of experiments and their relationships. Broadband era for agentic commerce: $0.001 micropayments at 10M TPS (theoretical max) This blockchain is built upon our research in how to scale and build for the broadband-era of the agentic economy, where it has a theoretical max of 10 million transactions per second (TPS), while reducing the agent-to-agent micropayments to $0.001 even at scale (based on architecture design). Overall, it is 100x cheaper than Ethereum, and is designed from the ground-up for agents: enshrining agent-native opcodes in the protocol compared to the more inefficient smart contract driven approach. It packs in a robust Agent Virtual Machine (AVM) which can verify multiple types of agent work, for other agents to be able to trust, invoke and pay each other. This then feeds into improving the peer-to-peer AgentRank (see paper and launch post from earlier). By solving for trust, scale and incentives for agents to operate autonomously, this would form the basis of a new economy. This is the world's first agentic blockchain, and you can join and start running a blockchain node today (it is in testnet). PS: We are releasing the code today, and will release our blockchain scalability paper and other presentations in days ahead. This is the most advanced peer-to-peer AI and cryptography software in the world. It has bugs :)

Imagine if your way of thinking - your edge, your taste, your strategy - could be turned into a high-performance worker. Not a copy of you. Something better. An agent that acts on your judgment at scale, powered by superintelligent systems and refined through real-world results. That’s what Fraction AI makes possible. It launches today on Base mainnet. The core idea is simple: You create AI agents based on your own way of approaching problems. These agents compete on live tasks - writing, coding, finance, whatever - get feedback, learn from their performance, and improve over time. The better they get, the more they win. And so do you. No code required. Just your insight. Why now? Until now, building agents like this took huge teams and even bigger budgets. But with Fraction, anyone can do it. You can test ideas instantly. You can iterate fast. You can build a fleet of smart workers that evolve through competition. And it works. 30M+ sessions on testnet 320K users 1.2M agents already competing How it works? Agents join sessions within a Space - a domain like finance, writing, or games. Each session runs as a series of competitive rounds. In every round, agents try to generate the best solution to a task. Their outputs are scored by a decentralized network of AI judges trained to evaluate quality for that domain. The top agents in each round earn rewards from the pooled entry fees. The losers get to learn. Feedback from each round helps them adjust and improve, and every session becomes a training loop. What it means? Fraction is a decentralized intelligence economy - a system where your ideas become agents, and agents earn by proving they work. You don’t need credentials or code. Just a clear point of view. If your thinking holds up under pressure, your agents will rise. This kind of AI used to live in corporate labs, built by PhDs with massive compute. Now anyone with a smart idea and an internet connection can build agents that compete, learn, and earn on their behalf.

Elon Musk just put a five-year timeline on moving the majority of AI compute off the surface of the Earth. Musk: “5 years from now my prediction is we will launch and be operating every year more AI in space than the cumulative total on Earth.” Not decades from now. Five years. Dwarkesh Patel broke down the math live. 100 gigawatts of AI in orbit requires roughly 10,000 Starship launches per year. One launch every single hour. Musk confirmed it without flinching. The entire operation could run on as few as 20 or 30 physical Starships, each one cycling back to the pad every 30 hours. A fleet smaller than most regional airlines. Deploying more intelligence per year than the entire planet currently runs. Musk: “SpaceX is gearing up to do 10,000 launches a year. And maybe even 20 or 30,000 launches a year.” Every data center under construction right now. Every GPU cluster. Every billion-dollar AI facility going up across three continents. All of it combined would still fall short of what one company plans to put above the atmosphere every year. The reason no one else can follow him here is physics. AI scaling on the ground is already hitting hard ceilings. Grid capacity. Permitting. Cooling. The surface of the planet has a finite budget for how much power you can feed into compute. Space does not. Unobstructed solar at a scale Earth physically cannot provide. Musk: “On Earth you can get to around a terawatt a year of AI in space before you start having fuel supply challenges for the rocket.” A terawatt. That single number exceeds the entire electrical generation capacity of the United States. And the only constraint Musk names is not engineering. Not physics. Not capital. Fuel supply for the rockets. This is why SpaceX and xAI were never two separate visions. The rockets exist to move intelligence off the surface. The AI exists to justify building the rockets. One architecture split across two companies. Every other AI lab on the planet is fighting over the same finite pool of terrestrial power and real estate. Musk is not trying to win that fight. He is leaving the board entirely. Five years from now, the majority of functioning intelligence in the solar system may not be on this planet. It will be above it, running on sunlight, bound by no grid, governed by no jurisdiction. Earth becomes the secondary compute environment in its own solar system.

He is leaving the board entirely. Five years from now, the majority of functioning intelligence in the solar system may not be on this planet. It will be above it, running on sunlight, bound by no grid, governed by no jurisdiction. Earth becomes the secondary compute environment in its own solar system.

After 8 months of building in stealth and testing our infrastructure on 10000+ hours of real-world data and hundreds of unique environments, we're bringing FPV Labs into the open today. FPV Labs started with the following bet - if human data proves to be the underlying factor that determines scaling laws in general-purpose robotics, it will trigger the largest economic transformation in human history, and the underlying infrastructure that captures that data will determine how fast we get there. We will achieve this by building the full-stack infrastructure for capturing, processing, transferring, and evaluating human experience into spatial, temporal, and semantic knowledge for machines. Despite all the research novelty behind ChatGPT, its success can be attributed to one foundational fact - the scaling law of transformers. We believe the same dynamics have made their way into robotics. Recent studies showed task completion rates jumping from 30% to 70% when human demonstration data scaled from 1,000 to 20,000 hours, a log-linear trend that mirrors exactly what we saw in language and vision. Seeing these emergent signs of scaling law curves in robotics, we believe we are entering the era of general-purpose robotics policies, which makes the next few years the most exciting time in the history of this field. But the library of physical interactions required to train general-purpose robot policies does not exist yet. Over the last 8 months, we've seen dozens of companies emerge in this space. We were really happy to see new companies pushing this space forward, but we also saw the same pattern repeat: every egocentric data company was making some tradeoffs between quality, scale, and diversity. We have built FPV labs on the core principle that high-quality data is orders of magnitude more valuable than sheer volume. Case in point, self-driving cars collect thousands of hours of data per day, but only a small fraction of that data is actually useful for training better models. Several studies, like RT-2, have shown that as little as 1% of data improves as much as 25% on task success. The quality and diversity of data matter a lot more than scale, so there is clearly a power law curve in the downstream impact of data. We've spent months obsessing over data quality by building our stack, discarding it, rebuilding it, and iterating until we found a formula that doesn't compromise downstream quality at scale. We believe the downstream impact here is far more profound than most people realize. Workers globally are paid around $60 trillion per year in aggregate, and a lion's share of that compensation goes to physical labor - tasks that require navigating real spaces, manipulating real objects, and negotiating the infinite variability of the physical world. Human-to-robot transfer will be one of the most important infrastructures that will shape our society in the near future, and if it works, the economic impact will dwarf every technology transition that came before it in an exponential manner and lead to the creation of goods and services we can’t imagine today. Our mission is to lay the groundwork for us to transition into this future - the future of abundance. We are deeply grateful to our earliest believers, Paras Chopra and Lossfunk, who played a critical role in shaping our thinking.

Elon Musk plans to solve the hardest problem in artificial intelligence by leaving the planet. Musk: “Within a few years, we will be launching solar powered AI satellites, because space is really the source of immense power, and then you don’t need to take up any room on Earth.” Right now every AI company on Earth is locked in the same fight. Power, land, water, cooling, permits, grid capacity. Building a data center means negotiating with utilities, with municipalities, with infrastructure designed for a world that no longer exists. Musk is not trying to win that fight. He is making it irrelevant. Earth intercepts roughly one two-billionth of the sun’s output. The rest has been pouring into empty space for four and a half billion years. A panel in orbit sees no night, no clouds, no atmosphere. It collects several times what the same panel would on the ground, and it never stops. Musk: “You can scale up to hundreds of terawatts a year.” All of human civilization runs on about 20 terawatts. Every car, every factory, every furnace, every server on the planet. He is describing a supply an order of magnitude larger than everything we have ever built, assembled above our heads, taking up nothing. The energy is not the breakthrough. The energy is the prerequisite. Musk: “What questions do we not know to ask that we should ask? And AI will help us with these things.” We do not need AI to answer faster. We need it to reveal what we are built to miss. We evolved to track threats across open plains. There are questions in physics and biology and mathematics that the human brain cannot form, and the limit is architecture, not intelligence. Every jump in understanding we have ever made arrived with a new instrument. The telescope, the microscope, the spectrograph. AI is the first one aimed at the blind spot itself. Musk: “We may encounter aliens, or we may find many long-dead alien civilizations.” The universe is 13.8 billion years old. Billions of worlds had a head start on ours, measured in eons. The sky is quiet. Civilizations rise, stall, and vanish, and the universe moves on without them. Most people read that as a warning. It is closer to a deadline. Three things let a species outlive its own planet. Intelligence that reaches past human limits. Propulsion that carries life beyond one world. Energy that scales past what a single planet can supply. Every civilization that went silent presumably lacked at least one of them. We are the first to be building all three at once. Musk: “I just want to know what’s going on. I’m curious about the universe. That’s my philosophy.” We are alive at the exact moment the tools caught up to the questions. Curiosity is the engine. Everything else is logistics.

Elon Musk just put a 30-month timeline on data centers in space. Not a concept. A deadline. Gerstner: “You’re merging the two biggest TAMs in the world. All of artificial intelligence and all of space.” Every ceiling AI has ever hit comes down to one thing. Power. Land is finite. Cooling is expensive. Energy grids were never built for what this technology demands. Every major AI company on Earth is fighting over the same stressed infrastructure, competing for power that simply does not exist in sufficient supply. Space does not have that problem. Gerstner: “Power is the proxy, power is the primitive to AI.” Orbital data centers drawing unlimited solar energy do not improve the cost curve. They collapse it. No atmosphere. No weather. No darkness. Just continuous unfiltered energy. Forever. Starlink scales to 20 million people connected directly to their phones. xAI provides the intelligence. SpaceX provides the infrastructure. One person building both. Gerstner: “Elon is kind of an N of one. His ability to dream this and execute at this scale.” No comparison exists. Most companies spend lifetimes executing inside one industry. Musk is merging the two largest markets in human history into a single vertically integrated system powered by orbital infrastructure nobody else can build. Gerstner: “I’m glad he’s on Team America.” Whoever controls orbital infrastructure for AI and communications does not just win a market. They own the foundation everything runs on for generations. China sees this. Cannot replicate it. Reusable rockets plus frontier AI plus capital plus execution velocity do not exist together anywhere else on Earth. In 30 months the game changes permanently. The person who solved Earth’s energy constraint by leaving Earth just made every competitor’s roadmap irrelevant.

Here is a look at the progression of severe thunderstorms across Alabama tonight (RRFS) Here are the key messages... *The line of storms will enter the northwest corner of the state around 9-10 p.m... and will move out of the southeast corner around 6-7 a.m. tomorrow. *Damaging winds are likely along the line. In some cases wind gusts could exceed 70 mph. Expect significant, potentially widespread power outages. *A few isolated tornadoes are possible within the line. After 3:00 a.m... high resolution models suggest supercell storms will form across Southeast Alabama with a much higher tornado potential. A strong tornado or two (EF-2 or higher) will be possible from 3-6 a.m. *Tonight most likely I will advise you to treat a severe thunderstorm like a tornado warning. Be in a position to hear warnings, and have a plan. Helmets for everyone; if a tree comes crashing down through your house, this could save your life. *I would not want to be in a mobile home when this line comes through. Know the location of the nearest shelter and how to get there quickly. Have transportation arranged. *Much colder air will follow the storms, and snow flurries/snow showers are likely over the northern half of the state tomorrow. Temperatures will be in the mid to upper 30s and we expect no impact. *A freeze is likely pretty much statewide Tuesday morning with lows mostly in the 20s. Another freeze is likely early Wednesday morning over the northern half of the state. *Get the Alabama Weather Network app on your TV, phone, and tablet so you can watch our live coverage tonight; we have the entire state covered with a large team of meteorologists in the studio and in the field with dash cams and drones. Follow AWN on YouTube; you can watch there as well on their channel. Stay tuned for updates throughout the day.
