Elon Musk is telling you to learn robotics. "There will be at least a billion robots in 10 years, each producing at least 5x the output of a human." Morgan Stanley says robots are a $5 TRILLION market by 2050. The people who build them will never worry about money again. This guy just gave away the exact 6-month roadmap to become a robotics engineer for free 👇

You probably already saw the news, but my son Trey represented Ghana 🇬🇭 and became Vice-World Champion of Flatland Unicycling. Here are some highlights of his performance in the finals! We thank God & all of you who have supported his efforts in this extreme sport over the years.

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter. AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models. images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-W…

For those that don’t know: Ghana failed to qualify in last place for the last AFCON, have previously gotten grouped by Comoros at AFCON, their friendlies leading up were a bloodbath and they switched coaches 2 months ago while suffering multiple huge injuries There was no team in worse shape and form coming into this tournament, what they’ve done is remarkable

The signal that the NITA bill is sending to the very people who are building the tech ecosystem might end up damaging the very ecosystem it intends to regulate.

Huge 3 points for Arsenal when the pressure was on. Rice tried all day to be in contention. The lads stepped up and put Unai and Villa to the sword. Statement win. Shooters and hoopers.

A mother, a teacher, and now, a proud graduate of #CodetrainAfrica. Patience’s journey is a powerful reminder that determination knows no limits. She won the "Woman in tech" award.
