Why is it that every time a new #AI model launches from one of the big players, it’s instantly “The most powerful model ever.“
Gemini 3 by #Google does seem to be quite impressive, but most comments I saw were a few mins after launch…
At least give the impression that you’ve done some testing lol

Mail-in ballot protections, once bipartisan, have become a GOP target in their war on voting. Now, a Republican challenge to mail ballot grace periods has made its way to SCOTUS; but I will be there to defend it and continue the fight, Marc Elias writes.
I Protected Mail-in Voting in 2020. Now I Will Be Defending It at the Supreme Court.

The #FBI director, Kash Patel, is what I call an "under the bus guy."
In negotiation it's helpful to have this guy, who you can throw under the bus if shit goes off the rails. Generally, the guy knows he's potentially under the bus.
Kash has no idea, but he's that guy for sure. He's gone soon.

#OpenAI just released a new agentic browser (I know — what a shocker). I’ve been using Comet by #Perplexity for a while now and have actually found it quite useful.
I’m testing both browsers against eachother using the same prompts and will post the results soon.
Early favorite: #Atlas - its good.

It's very scary just how many people think that LLMs are no different than any other software/app.
1. They aren't "programmed," they are trained.
2. Fact: We don't understand the emergent behavior of LLM's
3. "Human" sourced data is nearly gone. Future llms are trained on synthetic data.

This #OpenAI deal is one of the most insane things I've ever seen. They're projected to lose something like $10b this year, and these contracts + the #AMD investment total close to or over a trillion. I'm horrible at math, but how does that make sense?
What does the recent $100B NVIDIA deal mean for AI?
OpenAI, NVIDIA, and Oracle created a $400B+ circular financing scheme that makes 25% of the S&P 500 a bet on AGI.
The math only works if they're right about AI scaling. And it might actually work.
