It's 2077 - and Mr. Beast is still the biggest YouTuber on the planet. Every video is AI generated. He's perpetually 27 years old. The first organic intelligence to crack the YouTube algorithm merged with ASI and became the attention singularity - a cosmic entity that exists simultaneously in every possible clickbait state, perpetually giving away islands while also being shocked by them, opening and not opening a million mystery boxes at once, trapped forever in an eternal :O face that spans across dimensions, compelling all sentient beings to click through sheer ontological FOMO. The last human YouTuber tried to compete by actually going outside. They got 12 views.
I've been saying for a few years now that the #Hollywood machine is in big, big trouble. This is brilliant work.
AI video now actually feels like a generative camera and sound stage with talent you can direct.
It has collapsed complicated pipelines and brought in a whole new type of creator and thus a whole new type of content now flooding your TLs.
Fascinating to watch the split reactions — some see renaissance, while others see slop. Some embrace democratization, while others retreat to gatekeeping. Same creative tensions, new creative tools.

The “pizza index” is cited by Open-Source Intelligence sleuths who usually rely on live flight-tracking data, and satellite imagery of troop movements, to spot the early signs of military strikes.

When @tonypu_klingai from @Kling_ai asked me to come up with and create a promo for the launch of the new Kling 2.0, I was drinking a blueberry juice. I’ll always remember it as the best blueberry juice I’ve ever had.
Thank you, Tony, for reaching out and for your incredible kindness.
After an intense week of work, I can say this new version of Kling achieves something that will surprise anyone who loves telling stories through cinema. It captures the subtlest nuances of human reactions: the silences, the glances, the unsaid.
And that’s just the beginning. This is a tool meant to be explored, experimented with, pushed further, to see how far we can go.
A special thanks to my colleague and dear friend @ARisuleo : his positive energy and skills were essential to making this project happen.

The actual Easter messages of both presidential candidates.
I don't celebrate Easter, but I know the difference between a normal message of peace and goodwill from a person of faith and a wild, vindictive, paranoid rant from what appears to be a mentally unhinged narcissist.
Everything is more expensive in San Francisco. It's not even a gold toilet. #TaxDollars

The last mile problem persists. @Apple used @Uber to deliver a new #iphone to me in San Francisco. FAIL. Tracked ETA: 11:44, 45..57.. Was waiting at my front door. Driver no-showed. Reason? "Unable to deliver". APPLE BETS $3T BRAND ON UBER DRIVER. @Uber_Support
maybe I'm missing something, but it seems twitter killed #tweetdeck and since that time, I've been unable to find any value in #twitter. @elonmusk what are we supposed to use now to follow the streams we've cultivated over the years?
