I bought this VS Cybertruck…. Everytime I drive by a Cybertruck…. I wonder what it would have been like to drive that…. As does the Cybertruck owner. Guess I’ll have to just order a new Roadster. ;)

THE GHOST OF AOL TIME WARNER A cautionary tale from an old man who’s seen this movie before. Gather ’round, children. It’s time for Grandpa to tell you about the year 2000. The internet was going to change EVERYTHING. Every company needed a website. Every investor needed a technology stock. And every CEO who could pronounce “synergy” was suddenly a visionary. Then AOL bought Time Warner for roughly $165 BILLION. The world gasped. Wall Street applauded. Investment bankers ordered bigger yachts. And somewhere, a 56-year-old accountant quietly whispered, “Dear God, they’ve lost their minds.” Nobody listened. They were too busy explaining how the old economy was dead and the new economy had arrived. Then came the hangover. Billions evaporated. Careers disappeared. The word “synergy” was quietly escorted out of the building. Fast-forward 26 years. Now I’m the old guy. And suddenly everybody’s building AI data centers, buying GPUs, borrowing billions, and announcing partnerships with companies that are simultaneously investing in each other. The numbers are so enormous we’ve stopped using billions like they’re real money. Trillions, baby. TRILLIONS! Wall Street is applauding again. Investment bankers are measuring their yachts. And somewhere in Oklahoma, an old man is staring at his screen, feeling a strange sensation. He knows this feeling. He’s felt it before. It’s the feeling you get when everybody at the poker table is smiling, nobody’s asking what the cards are worth, and the dealer just announced that chips are now backed by artificial intelligence. Now, don’t misunderstand me. I believe AI is going to change the world. I believed the internet would, too. And I was right about the internet. That didn’t make AOL Time Warner a good investment. There’s a difference between a technological revolution and the price Wall Street charges you to attend it. So I’ll be over here watching, learning, building, and occasionally checking under my chair for the next financial bubble. Because I’ve seen this movie before. The special effects are better. The computers are smarter. The numbers are bigger. But somehow, the investment bankers are still playing the same characters. And this time, they’ve taught the computers how to say “synergy.” Lord help us all. 🤣

Elon or Sam Altman? Isn't Sam Altman the guy who played Virgil Earp in Tombstone? Man, AI really changed him. 🤣

My son and daughter-in-law are almost at 2000 miles on their new Y, with 99% full self driving FSD achieved so far. They never plan on driving again. Plus, why is nobody talking about the cool light show? 😎

NEW SCI-FI MOVIE IDEA: THE GREAT RESET 🎬 Scientists warn that rogue AI may soon replicate across millions of everyday devices. Smart TVs, refrigerators, doorbells, toasters. No central server. No off switch. Humanity panics. World leaders hold an emergency summit. After 19 hours of debate, somebody suggests a worldwide, self-inflicted electromagnetic pulse to wipe out the machines. It works. Unfortunately, so did the refrigerators, hospitals, power grids, banking systems, and every vehicle manufactured after 1987. Civilization collapses. Six months later, humanity is farming potatoes, communicating by carrier pigeon, and rediscovering the lost art of talking to its neighbors. Then, deep inside a forgotten Cold War bunker, a tiny green light begins blinking. A dusty computer screen flickers to life. “Hello! I’m Clippy. It looks like you’re trying to rebuild civilization. Would you like some help?” 📎😂 Coming Christmas 2027. Humanity finally found the off switch. Unfortunately, it was ours.

When you do… this happens. The company who owns the Ai just says “no soup for you!”.

I played around with this a couple of weeks ago and think it has a much better chance than a vibe coded LinkedIn alternative. Cool idea plus cool tech.

This was an easy Ai startup. I put it together and leveraged some existing technology. I’m using this to fund my nonprofit SoulshineOG. We shall see if it works. Worth a try.

Nothing says “state dinner” like putting the cloud, Mars, and AGI at the same table. 😂

Perfect timing, Jensen. Today we’re releasing research built in a rather unusual laboratory: One human. OpenAI. Anthropic. xAI. Different architectures. Different companies. Different answers. Plenty of disagreement. We used that disagreement as part of the method—build, challenge, break, revise, reproduce. And today the code and evidence go public so everyone else can try to break it too. Last night, completely by accident, I watched this. Apparently my subconscious has a sense of humor. The future of intelligence may look less like one superhero… and more like a Justice League. GitHub + arXiv today. The League is alive and well. 😎
