OpenAI started as a nonprofit with one promise: ensure AI benefits all of humanity. The billions it amassed belong to the public—not OpenAI's to take. As it moves toward a trillion-dollar IPO, our coalition is demanding the SEC force real disclosure before working families are exposed.

We got California to intervene about OpenAI's corporate switch from nonprofit status. It's time for the SEC to come to the table | Fortune

Why is Melania pre-empting war coverage to talk about how she wasn’t friends with Epstein? This is wild. Is she actively trying to throw her husband under the bus?

One source of the discrepancy could be a lie of omission. Where one company has encoded into their AI that it should decline any requests that involve killing people while the other has had Hegseth to pinky swear that he won’t ask their AI to kill people. But if he does…oops.

The iron law of MAGA is that every accusation is a confession. Whatever projection they are casting on their enemies is a revelation of their inner selves. It’s how their warped psyches call for help. Remember this the next time you hear Peter Thiel call someone the Antichrist.
