The liar who is protecting pedophiles in the Epstein files wants us to believe more of his lies against the man who forced the release of the Epstein files. Can’t even make it up! 🤦🏼‍♀️

How Sam Altman sounds in this interview 😂
🚨 SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”

This is Sam Altman implying humans are too expensive to feed. Sam's the Founder of OpenAI and a gay jew. They want you dead, plain and simple.

This guy has had 12 agents building 24/7 for the past 2 months and ive yet to see something actually being built
Its so obvious the path this world is going down. So I spent another $10,000 My vision has never been clearer. Open source AI models are now equally if not more powerful than closed source ones We will soon all have private personalized super intelligent AI agents running locally on our desks 24/7 The people who don't do this in the future won't have as much economic power The people who do will have all the economic power in the world I'm going all in on this vision My 2nd Mac Studio has arrived. I have 2 more coming. I will have 4 Mac studios and a Mac mini running 5 concurrent OpenClaws with 7 different super powerful local models performing tasks 24/7/365 for me I will interface with them, and they will coordinate with each other. Talking, planning, building all hours of the day. No need for sleeping or eating. I will build a digital society humanity has never seen before I will push the limits of what is possible with AI agents and local intelligence. I will redefine what is possible for one person to achieve in a life time I will share everything I build and learn with you. It will be glorious. If you're reading this, the future is going to be incredible. But the thing is, it will only be incredible if you do something about it. Don't let society control you. Take control yourself. Break free from your shackles.

Openclaw is being massively oversold to you Not because it isn’t powerful. It is But because you have no idea what you’re doing with it You are paying $100’s on api tokens to make an app that already exists You are spending hours building automations that save you 10 minutes a day, when you spend half the day doing nothing anyway You are trying to build entire businesses with prompts when you don’t even know what business you want AI isn’t saving you money or time It’s draining both And nobody’s talking about it because admitting AI isn’t working for you feels like admitting you’re falling behind (fyi, most of the success posts are complete larps) The people actually winning with AI right now have one thing in common They knew exactly what they wanted before AI existed AI just helped them get there faster That’s the difference They think then prompt You prompt then think At some point you stopped thinking and started prompting and didn’t even notice

Breaking Palantir was allegedly hacked. An AI agent was used to gain super-user access and here”s what the hackers allegedly found: Peter Thiel and Alex Karp commit mass surveillance of world leaders and titans of industry on a massive scale. They have thousands of hours of transcribed and searchable conversations of Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk. They have backdoored the devices, cars and jets of world leaders and accumulated the biggest archive of blackmail material. Palantir is creating nuclear and bio weapon capabilities for Ukraine and is working closely with the CIA to defeat Russia. They believe they are one year away. They plan to achieve this by keeping Russia busy with meaningless peace negotiations. Palantir is responsible of the majority of Palestinian deaths in Gaza. They have developed the AI targeting for Israel. Palantir is an arm of the CIA and all data from international clients is copied into a CIA spy cloud. Palantir has become the most dangerous company in the world. If you work there you have the right to know that this is what Palentir AI is used for, without your knowledge. The Palentir data the hackers allegedly gathered will be given to Russia and/or China. I was chosen as a trusted partner for this publication. I’m not involved in the Palentir hack and I don’t know the hackers. But I do know that the hack happened.

I've just recorded my *50th* video in the vintage music revival project that I started almost one year ago. This doesn't include the dozens of other songs I've featured in my concert streams. This feels like a significant milestone and I'm really proud of what I've accomplished💪

Here’s the lyrics. Please explain the wholesomeness in here. Maybe the 30% layoffs at WAPO weren’t nearly enough.
Analysis: In general, Bad Bunny's Super Bowl halftime show had the kind of wholesome, traditional family values that would have fit right in with some of the more sentimental commercials that appeared during the game. wapo.st/4r0BKOB

So that's why my reach has been nuked. Social media is one giant, pathetic, grifting scam. This is all fake and gay and X is one of the worst offenders. Nothing you see online is real. It's all manufactured slopaganda.

Your life is a nightmare due to your own choices. You choose booze drugs and BPD women over settling down with your wife and daughter. You are a lesson in how not to live one's life.

Computer scientist Judea Pearl: There are mathematical limits to LLMs that cannot be crossed by scaling alone LLMs don't discover world models from raw data; they merely summarize the interpretations humans have already written down "this path is not the way to get AGI"
