Fun fact: As a computer science grad student at Brown, I attended recruiting talks from employees at Oracle (Ellison’s dad’s co) who openly bragged that the company’s success was due to their monopoly.
CNBC: Do you sense that the president is in your corner here?

DAVID ELLISON: What I would say is I'm incredibly grateful for the relations with the president, and I also believe he believes in competition

If there is garbage and error in the existing model, then why trust its ability to rewrite its own training data? None of this makes sense or will work.

Anyone who believes Elon is either an “AI expert” or “sober” needs to open their eyes.

Today in Boston.

Over a million people turned out.

Even the drone couldn't get it all.

I'm Dr. Annie Andrews. I’m a pediatrician, not a politician. But either way I know how to handle people who are full of sh*t.

Today I am announcing my campaign for US Senate to replace Lindsey Graham. Share this if you're with me.

“Putting a hat on a hat” is literally a term actual comedians use to describe something as trying so hard to be funny it is no longer funny.
"They say I wear a lot of hats," Elon Musk jokes in cabinet meeting. He grabbed a red "Gulf of America" hat from the cabinet room table and put it over his black DOGE hat.
"Even my hat has a hat."

Just start almost any hobby. Wtf is wrong with our perception of masculinity in this country? “They have nothing to do.” This is embarrassing. Maybe if these same complainers weren’t constantly trying to destroy the arts they would have some to do, but they are too repressed to try new things.
White dudes are just bored, that’s why we need to destroy the economy.

The fact that making art yourself is HARD and forces you to think about ALL the choices is the essence of art. Using AI does not democratize “art” any more than hiring someone else to paint your painting for you. It is artistic the same way that writing your Craigslist ad for an art commission is.
This is the perfect analogy.
If you want more people to run, you don’t give them mopeds.
If you want more people to make art, you don’t give them image generators.
This doesn’t “democratize” anything
