Here's a new Bain study which essentially says that the US needs a massive crash course in innovation to find these to do with AI so that it can pay for itself. $6T needed about $1.4T realistically in sight by 2031. They list four areas of critical innovation opportunity. And if you note here ...

Seeing this sort of thing always reminds me that neither the original PC nor the software for it came from massive outside investment. It just sold. You could walk into an office and show people WordPerfect and they'd throw money at you, because it was useful.

This detail fucking floored me

New York State has rigid standards for criminal allegations of rape, requiring evidence of either “forcible compulsion” or “incapacity to consent,” often meaning physical helplessness. Furthermore, if an accuser in New York State was “voluntarily intoxicated,” she cannot argue that she was mentally incapable of consent. (In June, the New York State Senate passed a bill that would close what is known as the “voluntary intoxication loophole”; it now awaits action in the State Assembly.)

For a long time I've wanted a sense of how trump has or hasn't interacted with chatbots (we know he posts a lot of slop sure). And this TIME anecdote about Grok arguably leading Trump into war is just extremely bracing

Since returning to office, Trump has marveled at AI’s capabilities. He is increasingly in thrall to the tech executives courting him. In December 2025, Elon Musk returned to the Oval Office for a clandestine meeting. Trump spent hours asking Grok, Musk’s AI chatbot, questions about his presidency and legacy, according to an official present. At the time, Trump was ordering missile strikes against Venezuelan boats he alleged were smuggling drugs into the U.S. He asked Grok how Venezuelans would react if the U.S. captured Maduro. According to the official present, the chatbot responded that Maduro was a repressive and deeply unpopular dictator and that many Venezuelans would likely celebrate his downfall. After Trump ordered the mission to seize Maduro, the following month, celebrations broke out in the streets. Trump, according to officials, came away thinking Grok was ingenious.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

also thinking a lot about how #MeToo apparently went too far, when it’s quite obvious now that it didn’t go far enough. it didn’t really go anywhere. there were no lasting consequences of that cultural moment beyond people making jokes about it.

Louise Bourgeois on the difference between French and American aesthetics

Summarized: LB's mother sewed tapestries. Tapestries to be exported to America had to have figure's genitals cut out and replaced with flowers. LB's mother saved up the excised genitals and made a quilt to give to her daughter. And that's the difference.
