A jack of all trades is a master of none but still always better than a master of one.

Jensen Huang just called out every CEO who’s been firing people “because of AI.” Jim Cramer asked him why companies are laying people off if AI is supposed to make everyone MORE productive. Jensen's answer: "For companies with imagination, you will do more with more. For companies where the leadership is just out of ideas, they have nothing else to do. They have no reason to imagine greater than they are. When they have more capability, they don't do more." Read that again. The man who built the most important tech company on Earth just told you that if your CEO is using AI to cut headcount, it means one thing: They have no imagination. They have no vision for what comes next. They got handed the most powerful tool in human history and their FIRST instinct was to fire people. This is the CEO of NVIDIA. The company whose chips power every AI system on the planet. If anyone on Earth has the right to say "AI replaces workers," it's Jensen Huang. And he said the OPPOSITE. He said every carpenter could become an architect. Every plumber could become an architect. AI elevates capability. It doesn't eliminate it. But here's where it gets really interesting... During the same interview, Jensen revealed something nobody's talking about: He said AI startups like OpenAI and Anthropic are seeing their revenues increase by one to two billion dollars a WEEK. And he wishes these companies were public so the world could see what he sees. One to two billion per week. That's a $50 to $100 BILLION annualized run rate. For companies that most people think are burning cash and making nothing. The entire Wall Street narrative that "AI companies aren't profitable" might be completely wrong. Jensen sees their numbers. He sees their compute orders. He sees their growth. And he's saying the revenue is real. So if the money IS real, why are other companies firing people? Because they're not building AI products. They're not creating new revenue streams. They're not using AI to expand into new markets. They're using AI as an EXCUSE to cut costs because they ran out of ideas 3 years ago and need something to tell the board. Jensen's company added $500 billion in new orders in 5 months. He expects $1 trillion in cumulative revenue through 2027 from just two product lines. That number doesn't include the new chips, systems, or partnerships announced this week. And he's not cutting people. He's hiring. Because when you have imagination, more capability means MORE opportunity. Not less headcount. Meanwhile Salesforce cut thousands. Meta cut thousands. Amazon cut thousands. All blaming "AI efficiency." Jensen's response: You're out of imagination. He also said something that stuck with me. Cramer asked if he ever thought he'd build a $10 to $20 trillion company while waiting tables at Denny's. His answer: "I was just trying to make it through the shift." Biggest tip he ever got? Two, three dollars. Now he's building tech that increased computing demand by one million times in two years. He announced OpenClaw, which he says is as big as ChatGPT. And he's got 21 months of new business that isn't even counted in the trillion dollar figure yet. When asked how long he plans to keep working? "I'm hoping to die on the job. And I'm not hoping to die anytime soon." This is a man who believes every single thing he's building. And his message to every CEO using AI to justify layoffs is simple... You're not innovating. You're surrendering. The technology wasn't built to shrink companies. It was built to make them limitless. If your leadership can't see that, the problem isn't AI. It's THEM.

@elonmusk Will we need a visa?

Life cannot just be about one sad thing after another. There must also be things that make us super excited and inspired about the future. This is one of things. Bigtime.

@VinnyLingham Where did you start? And what was your first break out job?

Upon reflection, I worked the hardest in my twenties, was most focused in my thirties but, ultimately, became most productive in my forties. I’m not sure what my fifties will reveal about me, so would love some insights who understand what I’m talking about.

@tinusleroux @Nigelrefowens @jaredwright17 2 points if kicked within a minute, 1 point if kicked after a minute.

@Nigelrefowens @jaredwright17 Controversial opinion to add to this: i think the shot clock on kickers is too short. Adding 30 seconds won’t make a massive change overall, give kickers enough time (even just to get heart rate under control) and it creates another ‘story point’ in the game.

I agree. I’ve always said that high BIP time does not make a rugby game better as you have rightly pointed out. To much tinkering with the laws and an obsession to let the game flow at all costs will take away from the game not enhance it. The proof is in the pudding

DDP!

@TAKEALOT you make it very difficult to notify you that I received an item that I did not order or pay for. Anyway if you want it back let me know. S1019234215.

In 2017, Formula 1 was a ‘dying sport.’ An aging audience, no digital appeal, and no future. But a bold strategy changed everything: 50 million new fans, TikTok dominance, and the fastest-growing sport globally. Here’s the marketing masterclass behind the comeback:
