Like, this man has built a company that vies to be the most valuable in the world, entirely off the back of the AI boom. If risk concerns are all a big conspiracy to inflate the bubble, why is he (seemingly successfully) urging Trump not to regulate AI?

Barryland is, in fact, an entire museum/park dedicated to St Bernards.

Today, on the last day of my holiday, I am visiting Barryland. Without looking it up, any idea what awaits me?

Fun little one from us here: A MAGA pro-AI political advocacy group which claimed $100m in backing has been strangely quiet since touting its Trump-friendly spending plans a couple of months ago. And odd things have been happening behind the scenes.... www.transformernews.ai/p/whats-happ...
On April 29 Charles Gantt, officer and director of the Innovation Council Action 501(c)(4), filed to dissolve it, before refiling to revoke the dissolution just 11 minutes later. Gantt is treasurer of the MAGA Inc PAC Budowich founded and used to direct.

The following day, Gantt filed to terminate a PAC named Innovation Council PAC, formed last October and of which he is listed as treasurer. In earlier filings, the PAC listed its website as InnovationCouncil.com, the same as the 501(c)(4). According to the FEC’s records, the PAC remains defunct, suggesting it is not set to be a vehicle for that $100m in political spending.

I'm sorry, but does it, does it really? This is the most cogent analogy you can come up with for something you regularly say is going to be the most powerful technological change in millennia.

I am begging the tech industry to stop being obsessed with Lord of the Rings.

I find this dynamic, where MAGA types have begun breaking with Trump over AI, so fascinating. @nickywoolf.bsky.social's dive into it www.transformernews.ai/p/how-maga-l... just has me thinking about this meme...

Followup question, can anyone tell me who this angry man on a horse that's printed on the seats of Krakow's trams is?

We were told that British shorthairs weren't lapcats... Alan would disagree.
