This isn’t a glitch. Engagement-driven algorithms don’t understand meaning, context, or childhood development. They only understand clicks and watch time driven by dopamine spikes. So when AI is tasked with churning out videos at scale, it doesn’t filter for innocence—it optimizes for stimulation. Cartoon imagery masking adult themes, fear...

This is a scam—and it’s happening in plain sight. I explain why birthright citizenship has become a moneymaking machine, driven by industries and foreign actors exploiting loopholes in U.S. policy. I break down how people are encouraged to come to the United States, have children, and leverage automatic citizenship—and why this isn’t just about immigration, it’s about incentives, exploitation, and long-term consequences. If you don’t understand how this system is being used, you’re missing the real story. This is about citizenship, policy, and the cost of getting it wrong. Watch the entire episode: Rumble: YouTube:

$420k in revenue didn’t come from making better ads It came from understanding that AI ads are no longer about persuasion they’re about blending into the feed so well they don’t feel like ads at all No logos No polished intros No forced calls to action Just content that looks like education warnings or replies you’d normally stop to watch AI isn’t used to invent new angles It’s used to identify what already holds attention lock the structure and reproduce it at scale without dilution That’s why these ads work longer than traditional creatives They don’t interrupt the scroll They move with it This is where modern advertising is heading quiet repeatable and extremely hard to compete with if you don’t understand the system I broke down how these AI ads are structured and scaled rt + comment “ai ads” and I’ll send it follow for dm

I was impressed when my team showed me this example of intelligence and behavioural generalisation. Watch this — seeing a person bow to welcome our car to move forward is definitely not something I've seen outside of Japan. Yet in this clip you can see our AI Driver recognise that this person is asking us to stop. We have the intelligence to understand the context that we shouldn't nudge around them, rather hold in place, despite no signage or red light. Then, if you keep watching, you'll see we recognise the bow and a wave as permission to drive through the road works. Less than 1% of our training data is from Japan. Our AI is trained end-to-end. There are no explicit rules or labelling, no explicit gesture or body pose recognition, this is all learned capability that is scalable and data-driven. This is how Wayve will scale autonomous driving to the world and address the long-tail of edge cases.

AI music is cooking. Here is the latest from Aimi. It is aimed more toward developers and music professionals than, say, Suno or udio. Check out the demo, which starts about 33 minutes into this interview with founder Edward Balassanian. In it he shows that you can import a video that has no audio and it makes both a voice over and the music to match the content. This leads to very personalized video. If you are in India, you might get a bollywood track, all aligned to the video. In US a viewer might get served with something closer to the Rolling Stones. This is a huge trend that's just starting. Hollywood is funding another company, Corto AI, that will do this for movies and already is doing similar for advertisers (it launches next year). Just mind blowing stuff that makes creating videos with music backgrounds so much easier.

TeamYouTube . My channel Just got hit with INAUTHENTIC CONTENT . YouTube's AI Wrongly flagged my channel as low effort and mass produced content. All of our scripts are Original. Every topic is distinct and well researched, covering distinct historical subjects with genuine educational depth. No two videos are the same and no template can produce what we make. These are 3 hour long documentaries. We use real archived historical footage that takes a long time to find and source and edit with the narration. We do not use AI images or video. This is not something you can template. This is not something you can mass produce. The render time alone makes that impossible. I did everything right. I made a detailed appeal video explaining the entire workflow of my channel. How we write the scripts, how we do the editing, how we record the voiceovers, everything in full detail. That video has zero views. It was auto rejected. No one at YouTube watched a single second of it. $5,500 from last month is on hold. $2,200 from this month is on hold. That is $7,700 sitting frozen because an automated system made a decision that no human being has actually verified. Real people are being affected by this. I am not asking for a free pass. I am just asking for one real human to look at this case once .

#WATCH | Delhi: At the Synergia Conclave, Lieutenant General Vipul Shinghal, AVSM, SM, Deputy Chief of Integrated Defence Staff (Doctrine, Organisation, and Training), says, "...Even when I operate an AI system, I understand how to use it, but I don’t know what manipulation of data is happening... Where we have control and where we are also focusing is that our commanders, who earlier were only dealing with troops and making decisions based on that, are now dealing with algorithms and systems... they must have the ability to question machine outputs... These aspects are being debated worldwide... India itself has recently lost any regulation after the AI summit, and we are part of these discussions. The consensus is hard, but it is building..." He adds, "Meaningful human control is another aspect that is taking shape. Meaningful human control means that commanders must be able to access control meaningfully, and for that, they require 4 inputs or rather 4 levers: sufficient situational awareness... adequate time and information... And the ability to override or intervene... if they understand its limitations, we will be able to, at least in systems of the armed forces and weapons systems, ensure that we use AI for user responsibility. The moral responsibility must remain with the commander, and our conscience must keep that in place... In the Indian context, we have always believed that Shakti must go hand in hand with Dharma, that this force must go hand in hand with righteousness..." (11.03)

David Friedberg: The AI Jobs Panic Is a Crock of Sh*t Why? The revenue potential outweighs the cost savings by 100x. “There is no job loss with AI. I've said it a thousand times, and I will say it again, and again, and again. What I see on the ground, and what I've seen at dozens of companies, including my company that I run, there are two sides to a business. There is revenue and there’s costs. On the cost side of the equation, AI can be used to reduce humans doing things that cost money, to some extent. The effect there, I would argue, is nominal. The real opportunity with AI is on the revenue side, where suddenly one engineer can do 100x or 1000x what they used to be able to do, meaning you can make more products at your company, whether those are agricultural seed products, or boats and ships, or software for companies, or clothing, or what have you. Because of AI, everyone has the ability to expand their revenue base to create more products, and that is the foundation of good economic prosperity. It is called productivity. We can grow productivity in this country with AI. So where I see AI being used is on the revenue side 100x more than the cost side. And in that equation, people are hiring like crazy. We cannot hire enough people. I just had a review meeting with my product and engineering team two days ago, and they're like, ‘We want to add an extra 15 headcount to our engineering squads because we have all this opportunity to do stuff that we couldn't otherwise do.’ So we are going to hire more people. And to Sacks' point, we are seeing that show up in the jobs numbers. The idea that AI is going to destroy jobs is a Luddite idea that is being disproven every single day, and I see it on the ground. It is only a matter of time before people wake up to this and they realize that this narrative that they've all been sold is a crock of sh*t.”

More new videos have been added to the 50:50 project including this one from Mike Bennion, for a track called 'Before Night Falls' from Passion. 'This piece is a visual poem, attempting to complement the exotic and sacral nature of the music,' says Mike. 'It is heavily inspired by the 1969 film ’The Colour of Pomegranates’ by Sergei Parajanov. It uses a similar minimalist, old school film grammar, real locations, no camera moves, no special effects, no actors just ordinary people, symbolic gestures whose meaning has been lost over time. A combination of my subconscious and the whims of AI has produced something we don’t understand, and that is what hopefully holds our attention, to figure out the puzzle.'

Dr. Daniel Amen gave parents a stark warning on screens and young kids: “No screens before three — and even that’s still young.” When a dad asked about “Miss Rachel” videos helping his toddler learn words and recognize animals: Amen was firm: Even purely educational content isn’t good. The developing brain doesn’t need the constant stimulation screens provide. It trains attention to require flashy input — which harms natural focus and development. He echoes the American Academy of Pediatrics: zero screens under 2, and extreme caution after. The earlier screens start, the more they rewire how a child’s attention and brain work. This isn’t about shaming parents — it’s about protecting the most precious window of brain development. Parents of toddlers: Have you already started screens (even educational ones)? Or are you holding the line as long as possible?

🚨 “WE ARE ALREADY IN HARM’S WAY” — EUROPE IS BEING CONDITIONED FOR WAR 🚨 Those words should stop every European cold. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has now said openly what leaders usually hint at in private: “We are Russia’s next target.” This is not casual language. This is psychological preparation. When senior figures start speaking this plainly, it means governments are no longer just planning militarily — they are preparing public consciousness for conflict. And it doesn’t stop there. The UK has now followed suit. Ministers confirm Britain is rapidly developing plans to prepare the entire country for war — not just the armed forces, but society itself. That is a line you do not cross lightly. This rhetoric isn’t accidental. It comes amid mounting pressure on Europe to rearm, to spend more, to accept sacrifice — and to internalise the idea that war is no longer distant, theoretical, or avoidable. This is about conditioning: ▪️ Conditioning populations to fear ▪️ Conditioning economies for militarisation ▪️ Conditioning citizens to accept disruption, loss, and control The most dangerous part isn’t the weapons. It’s the moment people are told — quietly but firmly — that war is no longer if… but when. And once a population is psychologically prepared, the threshold for escalation drops dramatically. Europe is being moved — step by step — into a war footing. The question is no longer whether leaders are preparing. The question is whether the public understands what that preparation truly means — and where it ends.

Albania’s Lesson On Resisting Settler Colonialism There is something very powerful about what Albanians are doing right now. They saw a foreign-backed “luxury development” coming for their protected land, and they understood immediately what was really at stake. Their land and their sovereignty. Africans should be watching very closely because we know this story too well. We have seen outsiders arrive, “discover” places that already have people, history, culture, and meaning, then package everything as investment and development. Before long, the people who own the land are the same people being locked out of it. That is why Albania’s resistance matters. They are not waiting until it is too late. Africa needs that same clarity. Every foreign-backed enclave, private settlement, charter city, or “special development zone” should be resisted because once land is gone, it is gone. Albanians seem to understand this. Do we?

AOC: When people see a ballroom and, at the same time, see their health insurance getting cut off, they know that they are paying for that ballroom with no health care, higher grocery prices, and increasingly unaffordable housing. And so I think people are pissed off about it, and they should be. It’s wrong. This is a complete theft of our money. This is what I want people to understand: this is our money. When you pay your taxes, that money is being stolen to pay for a vanity project like a ballroom, or to renovate the Kennedy Center, or whatever it is that this guy wants to do, instead of what it should be used for—paying for things that actually benefit you: better roads, health care, and more affordable groceries.

Draymond Green responds to Stephen A. Smith 😳 “The problem that I have is we’re calling for all this accountability, but all these guys just get to say things and there’s zero accountability. There’s zero accountability when it comes to me. Just literally get to throw sh*t at a wall and see if it sticks. Zero accountability. But always want to hold others accountable. I don’t understand. Like these guys don’t have to answer for these awful a** takes they make. How wrong they be in most situations. But these are experts. I don’t understand it. It’s the only thing you can become an expert in and never have any experience with the game.” (Via The Draymond Green Show)

WATCH | Good day. I hope you can assist me with this so that the higher authorities can see it and take action. This is in Sunningdale 2, Harare. We have had a sewage problem for almost six months now. When we approach the council or the district officer, it takes them about two weeks to respond. When they finally fix it, the solution only lasts for about a week before the problem starts again. The video above shows a toilet at one of the houses, and it is very close to the front door. Mayor of Harare, Jacob Mafume

Jack Dorsey on becoming a better storyteller: "I found myself very early on thinking about something like thinking about this early idea for Twitter and saying to myself, I could build this awesome. You have those shower-like moments, or you're walking at midnight in some town in New York City, and you've got these amazing brand ideas. And then you start thinking, well, I could really start doing this if only X and if I had this person or if this technology existed or if this happened or this happened. And what I realized was that I was constantly making excuses for not working on it. And then the window had passed, and then I couldn't do anything. So I think it's really, really important to write it out or to draw it out or to code it. But you need to get it out of your head. And the reason you have to get it out of your head is that you need to be able to see it on a surface that is not in your mind. And once you can see it, and once you can step back from it, then you can also decide this passes my filter, my constraints, so maybe I can show it and share it with some other people. And then they will be like that's the stupidest idea ever and or that's somewhat interesting, but maybe this and this and this. So the sooner you can do that, then you have a lot of momentum around it, and you can really decide if you want to commit to it and work on it more or put it on the shelf for a later date. And the realization that I think everyone needs to have about that latter option, putting it on the shelf, is that you can come back to it and it will surface back up in another piece of work or another idea at some point in your life. So having that ability to close off a chapter and move on is really, really important. You can't have all these open threads, and that's what I realized I was doing. And that also encouraged me to really write more and to really think about what's the story? How are people coming to this? And like when I show my friends this, how are they going to react and I would write it down. I would actually treat it like a play. And when I realized that I was writing plays, I read a lot more plays for style and for substance and for technique and I think it's really good. I think there is another company that I have always looked towards for inspiration and I know a number of people in this room probably have a similar company in mind, which is Apple. Apple, I think, is run like a theater company. It has a great sense of pacing, has a great sense of story and has a great sense of execution and it's all about event-driven, it's all stage-driven, the stage being a billboard or the stage being a keynote or the stage being a product launch. All of it has a very, very cohesive end-to-end story. I mean you think about what happened when Steve Jobs came back to the company. The first thing he did was kill every product line the company was working on. And for two years,rs they had no product on the market whatsoever. All they had were a bunch of posters all around the world with Steve Jobs' heroes, and it said, think different. And it was just focused on bringing up the brand and making people aware of the brand again and how the brand is aligning to this particular feeling and story. And then they came out with the iMac and then built iTunes and then the iPod, and they realized that, wait a minute, people are carrying music on their phones now, so we better build a phone, an iPhone. And so this unfolding of the plot and the epic story has been very, very interesting to watch, especially if you look back to that time when he came back to the company. So I've learned a lot from that company and other companies that operate in a similar fashion."
