It turns out that the folks at Anthropic used two of my books to train their Large Language Models. I've gone and submitted my claim via the class action settlement. If you're an author whose work has been stolen, you should too

Trump's economy is being held up by a massive AI bubble.
A recent study found that of 300 companies that owned generative AI tools, 95% reported zero return on their investments.
We will not entertain a bailout of these companies should this bubble pop.

Okay, so, sure. NVIDIA sells $50bn of gpus. Where do they go? No, really, can anyone actually explain where all those GPUs went, and to whom they went to? Are they in data centers? Where? If we’re talking like, hundreds of thousands of b200s and gb200s, where on earth even has a data center built?

Donald Trump doesn't want to release the Epstein files because he's in the files.
Trump is in the files because he was "best friends" with Epstein for years.
He was "best friends" with Epstein for years because they were abusing women and girls together.
His attacks won't change any of that.
