I prefer to avoid seconding guessing economic data, but this seems like gaslighting. My company spans quite a few industries globally, and this seems quite at odds with what our business has been seeing for this year. www.cnbc.com/2025/12/23/u...

Tesla created a stainless steel coffin with cremation feature. Any other company that sold such a liability would be teetering on bankruptcy. $TSLA is at all time highs. Because the company is a fraud and the US is a corrupt banana republic.
The cascading series of problems: 1) In a crash/fire, doors don’t open intuitively from the inside, 2) it’s similarly difficult to open them from the outside, 3) The windows don’t easily break. 4) If all else fails, the doors can’t be swiftly pried open.

Tried Uber Eats for family dinner tonight as I got $55 of credits. Hour after it was supposed to, food hasn’t arrived and app is showing it as delivered. Standard big tech disruption and customer experience. Hope Uber goes bankrupt.

I keep reading about prominent people using AI professionally any making grievous errors. You’d think these supposedly smart people would know about the shortcomings of AI by now. But no. People in all sorts or prominent roles disregard risks or remain ignorant. Have a friend in C-suite of a decent
The Chronicle also chose to ignore that he's one of three judges I caught using AI in their orders, which are riddled with errors and fabricated quotations. But they wanted to tell the more focused story.
It's not focused. It's a national crisis.

In case anyone forgot, the richest man in the world, a conman and criminal, bought an election for a hateful, narcissist mobster to be president of the United States. Together they killed thousands, starved children & invited disease. And the markets rejoiced and half the country loves it.

As a side gig, I help arrange AI licensing deals for datasets. Currently have a strong client with unique datasets and we were in close talks with a big tech company. Alas they were only willing to pay a pittance. It’s unfortunate that Big Tech spends wildly on GPUs, but barely respects IP.

How many such farms are deployed by Tesla, crypto and other vaporware companies? How about right wing political campaigns?
This is a wild hack. a16z gave a million dollars to startup called Doublespeed. They use a phone farm to flood social media with AI generated influencers and ads. A hacker remotely broke into the phone farm, unmasking the AI influencers/fake accounts, gave us the data www.404media.co/hack-reveals...

New research finds that car touchscreens are so distracting that they induce "significant performance degradation" among drivers.
Meanwhile, in-vehicle touchscreens remain completely unregulated in the US.

Good thread about Tesla slowly behind to boil, other than depicting Musk as a clown. He’s actually a sociopath murderer.
The CA DMV won their lawsuit vs Tesla for FSD fraud & will suspend Tesla's sales & output in CA for 30 days.
The profit impact (<$1B) is nothing. The legal precedent is huge: FSD is not "self-driving" & Tesla lies.
This bolsters 2 class actions against $TSLA FSD fraud & more.
A quick 🧵
