This is your reminder that the only reason these companies will issue IPOs is that's the only way their ground floor investors can recoup their money at a profit... by convincing the general public to overpay for shares. Don't fall for it.

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

Also this is the thread about the woman who told me about murdering her ex when I was pregnant with kid #1. Again, the women are unlikely to move the way you expect if the danger continues to grow.

Five years ago, when a Seattle burger chain raised employee wages & benefits the Reicht wing lost their minds, screaming the result would be $20 burgers & the company would end in bankruptcy. Today, the chain is even more popular than ever. Never let them try to tell you a living wage can’t work.

This would spike diesel prices in Canada. Carney should be threatening a crude export ban if the White house takes this course. If they will not sell us diesel, we shouldn't sell them crude. #cdnpoli Trump seriously considering U.S. diesel export ban amid supply crunch share.google/FUX2GGmn0tX0...

Trump ‘very seriously’ considering diesel export ban as global supply crunch worsens
Analysts warn an export ban could backfire, pushing up global diesel prices and potentially triggering higher U.S. gasoline prices as refiners adjust.

Soooo.... Those Ontario kids who made that hilarious and deeply satirical American Dictator board game (think "Monopoly: Fascism Edition" — see my video yesterday) sent me this email last night. 3,000 games sold in six hours after my video. As of this morning, they're up to 7,000. 🫪

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Being able to write a romance in a novel is not the same thing as being able to write a romance novel, though. One is a plot point. The other is working within a genre space with established market expectations.

Remember, in western culture, women only started removing their body hair after Gillette realized they could sell more razors if they convinced women to shave their legs and underarms. The road to hell is paved with ad campaigns.

They even made DoorDash apologize.
DoorDash on Instagram: We messed up.
Our mistakes meant some NYC Dashers were underpaid or paid late. That's unacceptable, and we're deeply sorry to the Dashers we let down.
We've reached a settlement with the City of New York, and we will make this right by paying every impacted Dasher the amounts they are owed.

The Big Short guy is right.
Breaking: Michael Burry says OpenAI and Anthropic are faking the AI warnings due to slow growth ahead of IPOs.

Below are his reasonings:
1. LLMs are not AI and won't be AGI. There is nothing AI to slow down.

2. Competition is coming up fast, slowing benefits incumbents.

3. IPOs need hype & puffery: "we are so awesome it could become dangerous" is hype & puffery

4. Cover for real uncontrollable slowing growth as IPOs look to be pushed out.
