- I mean it as the absolute highest compliment when I say that of all the AI companies today, none remind me more of early-2000s Apple than Anthropic.
- this tweet would have literally been illegal under a law that gavin newsom signed 12 months ago, and the only reason it isn't is that a republican-appointed federal judge struck it down as unconstitutionalAfter nationalizing Intel, Comrade Trump (America's leading SOCIALIST!) unveils new statue! ALL HAIL COMRADE TRUMP!
- I have been contacted by a person clearly undergoing llm psychosis, reaching out because 4o told them to contact me specifically I have heard other writers say the same thing I do not know how widespread it is, but it is clearly a real thing.I have changed my mind, AI psychosis is a major problem
- Can you imagine what would have happened if someone had discovered โdo not criticize Sam Altman or Joe Bidenโ in an OpenAI system prompt?results replicated ๐ฌ any comment, @grok? if this has indeed been made part of the sys instructions, weโre gonna need to know why. manipulating search results seems like a funny way to combat misinformation, no? community could use some clarity on this
- my jaw is on the floor kudos, gemini team, you guys cooked.
- Under a strict reading of the AI Act, ChatGPT advanced voice is *illegal* in EU workplaces and schools because the system can recognize a userโs emotions. Thatโs prohibited by the AI Act.Replying to @OpenAIAdvanced Voice is not yet available in the EU, the UK, Switzerland, Iceland, Norway, and Liechtenstein.
- holy HELL Gemini deep research is unbelievable just pulled info from 100ish websites and compiled a report on natural gas generation in minutes maybe my favorite ai product launch of the lastโฆ at least three business days

- This is a very big deal. China has asserted sweeping control over the entire global semiconductor supply chain, putting export license requirements on all rare earths used to manufacture advanced chips. If enforced aggressively, this policy could mean "lights out" for the US AIHuge escalation by China! MOFCOM announces new exports controls taking effect after Dec 1 of rare earths to anyone anywhere in the world producing chips or equipment to make chips below 14nm or 256 layer memory due to โmilitary applicationsโ 1/2 mofcom.gov.cn/zwgk/zcfb/art/โฆ
- โCalifornia literally made youโ says the state senator to Elon Musk. He says this with a straight face because he believes that government policy is *responsible* for everything good that happens in its jurisdiction. Yet somehow never responsible for the bad.California literally made you with taxpayer subsidies & because itโs the best place around. Will this be a fake temper tantrum move just like Teslaโs fake โmoveโ to Texas?
- Remember when Thomas Edison asked everyone in the world for their consent to invent the lightbulb? Or when Steve Jobs asked every American whether Apple should build the iPhone?OpenAI is building tech that aims to totally change the world without asking if we consent. It's undemocratic. And Sam Altman just proved that bespoke corporate structures & voluntary commitments won't cut it โ we need LAWS that give independent oversight vox.com/future-perfectโฆ
- I am happy to announce that I have joined the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy as a Senior Policy Advisor on AI and Emerging Technology. It is a thrill and honor to serve my country in this role and work alongside the tremendous team @mkratsios47 has built.
