when trump admin labeled anthropic a supply chain risk, anthropic hired susie wiles’ ex employer, a lobbying firm called ballard (that helped put trump in office). anthropic very soon after struck a cloud deal that was hugely helpful to elon musk at spacex ahead of the spacex ipo. elon now ❤️s dario.

Here we are under Trump 2.0, angry, stressed, depressed, poorer, and tired. It's not fun. It's not great. He's not a leader, he's a criminal and a traitor and he shouldn't be anywhere near the White House. He has made literally everything worse since he was sworn in.

That’s great for today. But if Trump or Hegseth orders them when polling begins he will send them. Because as much as we hoped Caine was someone who might refuse an order like this and resign in protest, it’s becoming increasingly clear that he’s was chosen by Trump for a reason.

NEW: @JTLonsdale on Al backlash
"If you're on the right, you very correctly don't trust these big tech platforms...
Historically, the left doesn't trust big companies that are out for a profit...
[But] the right answer is not this low IQ, lowbrow rejection of everything... What is a way to hold government accountable?
What's the way to make it transparent?
What's the way to audit it in ways that they cannot get out of?
The answer is not to just embrace the room temperature IQ apocalypse — that doesn't have any nuance."
