Always talk to the engineers.
1/5 Some humanoid companies are admitting things are harder than the hype suggests. `Billions of dollars are flowing into humanoid robot startups, as investors bet that the industry will soon put humanlike machines in warehouses, factories and our living rooms.' www.wsj.com/tech/ai/huma...
Even the Companies Making Humanoid Robots Think They’re Overhyped
Despite billions of dollars in investment, startups say their androids can only perform simple tasks.

Watching Japanese legal drama. Judge's office buried in boxes.
"Hometown tax."
I look it up.
Japan lets you redirect taxes for gifts. $6.3B moving.
Made it fun instead of forced.

Now imagine an earthquake and emergency responders.
Much of SF lost power last night. Waymos blocked intersections across the city, even though they are Wayless than 1% of cars on the roads. They accumulated at their failure points--intersections with no green lights, in busy areas, and shut down traffic there.

one of the wildest things I have ever witnessed was seeing Waymos totally confused and stopped with the power outage in SF tonight. At the broken stoplights they were just sitting there and super disruptive I have never seen anything like jt

It’s the “season of love and giving”…but this year, doesn’t it seem more like a “season of fear and taking”? Like many of you, I’ve been saddened by the human impact of draconian government budget cuts and how angry many housed Americans are at unhoused Americans.

A large power outage is impacting San Francisco - only call 9-1-1 for life safety emergencies, avoid non-essential travel, treat down traffic signals as four way stops, keep refrigerator and freezer doors closed, and turn off major appliances to prevent surges.

Every LLM experiment we try seems to drift in to crazy within 40 dialogues. Love that the WSJ team expedited the descent.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.
What if the best use of AI is restarting the world’s idea machine?

Whale or cheetah?
Before you build your “AI strategy,” answer that.
You can’t use whale strategies for cheetahs.
Calling everything“AI” and you can’t see which one you need—or what comes next.

Despair is the enemy of invention.
I looked at the climate data.
We bent the curve.
But everyone’s in despair because we didn’t solve it completely.
When you’re in despair, you can’t see what to invent next.
