@gs072887 The search for Bobby Fischer is over!

I think I can die happy now, first time 2300+

Holy smokes @cvspharmacy just cut off the ability to talk to a pharmacist on the phone. Talk about a nightmare scenario.

🚨 BREAKING: Palo Alto Networks is receiving praise after firing employee Madhu Raju, who recorded himself dancing on the World War II Memorial. The company acted swiftly after the video spread online.

THE AGENTIC AI SECURITY CHEAT SHEET The selloff in cybersecurity after Anthropic announced Claude Code Security is a perfect example of the market reacting to a headline instead of the actual product. This is what the real security stack looks like: Identity & Access (who/what is allowed to act in production) • $ZS controls agent access & traffic across apps + networks • $OKTA manages identity & access for humans + machine agents Endpoint & Workload Security (what runs on machines) • $S protects the machines & workloads agents run on • $CRWD is the interactive response layer for agents across endpoints & cloud workloads Data Protection & Recovery (what must be protected after compromise) • $RBRK is the “undo button” for AI agents when things go wrong Network & Edge Security (how attacks move through systems) • $NET gatekeeper of agentic AI traffic on the modern internet • $FTNT secures AI traffic moving inside enterprise networks • $PANW coordinates security across network, cloud & SecOps • $AKAM protects applications & APIs at the edge where traffic hits first Cloud Runtime & Vulnerability Exposure (what is exploitable in production) • $RPD protects cloud workloads at runtime as deployments scale • $TENB maps & prioritizes exploitable vulnerabilities across live assets & cloud Security Operations & Observability (how incidents are detected & acted on) • $DDOG provides real-time visibility into the infrastructure agents run on • $DT provides deep runtime visibility into applications & APIs agents interact with Claude Code Security sits at the application security layer scanning code for vulnerabilities and suggesting patches for human review. It's a useful feature but represents a VERY small slice of one layer of the broader security stack. AI doesn’t replace cybersecurity but will actually expand the attack surface.

Eric Schmidt just killed the idea that AI can be paused, regulated, or slowed. Too many nations building. Too many fortunes at stake. Too much momentum. The question isn’t if this happens. It’s whether humanity survives what it creates. Schmidt: “This technology is going to happen. It’s not going to get stopped.” What’s coming isn’t progress. It’s a split. One path: fusion solved, cancer cured, aging reversed. The other: total surveillance, psychological control, and weaponized intelligence deciding who lives. Both paths use the same technology. We’re choosing which one right now. Schmidt: “A non-human intelligence arrived and it was a competitor to us.” Not a tool. A rival. Something that thinks without our limits, learns without our weaknesses, and operates without our mortality. This isn’t a tech cycle. It’s first contact with a species we built that might not need us. The choice is immediate. Aim it at solving the hard problems that could save billions. Or let it become the most efficient tyranny ever designed. Alignment isn’t theory. It’s triage. The entity is live, learning, and we’re setting its objectives in real time without knowing if we can change them later. Schmidt: “The technology itself is so addictive that it can affect our young people.” AI isn’t software. It’s neurological warfare. Precision-engineered to bypass every defense evolution gave us against manipulation. The same intelligence curing disease can enslave populations. The same system unlocking abundance can delete freedom. One source. Two futures. Every choice made now is permanent. This technology doesn’t have an undo button. The train isn’t approaching. It’s past us, accelerating into a future we either shape in the next few years or inherit as prisoners.

Is the singularity here?

AI has a "utility bill" that nobody is talking about, and it’s being paid in Copper and Silver. 📉⚡️ The question isn't whether AI can think—it's whether we can find enough copper to keep its brain from shutting down. finviz.com/news/291339/di… #AI #Commodities #MarketWatch

Elon Musk isn’t just building robots; he’s building a new strain on our physical reality. At Davos this week, he admitted the real bottleneck for the "Singularity" isn't intelligence—it's electrical power. With Optimus Gen 3 officially entering mass production this month, we’re looking at a future where millions of autonomous agents will be drawing from a U.S. power grid already at its breaking point. But as a security expert, the energy bill is only half the worry. We are moving AI from screens into our physical infrastructure, creating what the WEF calls a "New Exposure Problem." If these robots become the primary "agents" managing our logistics and resources, a single breach isn't just a data leak—it's a physical shutoff. We are trading human labor for a systemic vulnerability that moves at machine speed. Abundance is the promise, but we are building it on a foundation that is already flickering. datacentremagazine.com/news/davos-why… #AI #Tesla

Elon Musk just admitted we’re back in "Production Hell," but this time, the bottleneck isn't just the factory floor—it's the grid. While Optimus is slated for a slow 2026 rollout, Musk is warning that we are "very soon going to be producing more chips than we can turn on." As a security professional, this convergence of autonomous robotics and a straining power grid is a major hybrid risk. We are building millions of mobile, AI-driven endpoints (Optimus) that require massive electricity at a time when our infrastructure is already at its breaking point. From a cybersecurity perspective, these aren't just robots; they are walking "IoT nodes" that could be weaponized to manipulate energy demand or disrupt critical facilities. If we can't secure the power supply and the "non-human identity" of these machines, the "Abundance Age" will be a security nightmare. insideevs.com/news/785106/te… #AI #CyberSecurity #Tesla

Amazon’s corporate workforce just took its biggest hit in history. 16,000 jobs were confirmed slashed this morning, bringing the total to 30,000 since October. This is the efficiency "reckoning" in real-time. While Amazon is pouring $125 billion into AI infrastructure, it's simultaneously stripping away layers of management and corporate staff. CEO Andy Jassy has been blunt: AI-driven gains are expected to shrink the white-collar workforce over time. For the families affected, the Singularity isn't a promise of a better future—it’s a displacement. We are watching the world's largest startup trade human oversight for algorithmic speed. If record profits ($21B last quarter) don't protect you from the "bureaucracy tax" of AI, no corporate role is truly safe anymore. geekwire.com/2026/amazon-co… #AI #Amazon

Cathie Wood just dropped ARK’s "Big Ideas 2026," and she’s calling this era "The Great Acceleration." While most of us are worried about AI replacing the workforce, Cathie is doubling down on a "Golden Age" with a historic 7% GDP growth forecast. But here’s the part that worries me: When she talks about an "entrepreneurial explosion" replacing traditional jobs, I can't help but worry about the millions of people caught in the "displacement gap" before that explosion happens. In the race for the Singularity, Cathie sees a coiled spring; I see a society being asked to adapt at a speed we might not be wired for. ark-invest.com/articles/marke… #AI #MarketWatch #singularity

The clock just ticked closer to the end. Today, the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists moved the Doomsday Clock to 85 seconds to midnight—the closest it has ever been to global catastrophe in history. As a world event tracker, the most chilling part of today's announcement isn't just the nuclear risk; it's the explicit citation of "generative AI" and the "uncontrolled spread of disinformation" as primary drivers of this shift. We are officially living through what they called an "information Armageddon." When the tools we built to connect us become the primary threat to our shared reality, the Singularity starts to look less like a breakthrough and more like a breaking point. We aren’t just preparing for new tech anymore; we’re fighting to keep a grip on the truth itself. news.uchicago.edu/story/doomsday…

Microsoft’s Q1 2026 earnings are out, and the numbers are staggering: $77.7B in revenue, with Azure growing 40%. But look closer at the "capacity crunch" mentioned by leadership. We are hitting a wall where demand for AI is literally outstripping the physical infrastructure and power we have available. 🏗️⚡ As a security pro, this "rush to scale" is where the real danger lies. When companies prioritize "ROI per watt" and "per token" over robust oversight, we see the rise of unsupervised "Agentic AI" pathways—turning manageable API issues into systemic vulnerabilities. We are building the most complex supply chain in history on a foundation that is already straining. The Singularity isn't just a software update; it’s a physical and security reckoning that’s happening right now. futurumgroup.com/insights/micro…

The message from Davos today is a sobering one: the AI revolution is no longer a "future" problem—it’s an adaptation challenge happening right now. JPMorgan’s Jamie Dimon warned that the speed of AI deployment might be outpacing our collective ability to retrain and adapt. This isn't just about automation; it’s a massive psychological and societal shift. We’re moving from "how do I use this tool?" to "how do I redefine my value?" in a market where efficiency is soaring but human roles are shifting. The real focus for 2026 isn't the code—it's the collaboration we need to ensure people aren't left behind. It's time we start treating human reskilling as a form of critical national infrastructure. economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/internati…

@zshroff @andrewrsorkin @jimcramer I’ll accept your assessment as well 🤝

@TechGuru830 @andrewrsorkin @jimcramer I'll accept that but Kernan is BY FAR the most bias in all his guest interactions and coverage.

I’ve been a loyal CNBC viewer for 8 years, valuing market insights over political commentary. However, @andrewrsorkin and @jimcramer have made politics such a focal point that I can no longer watch. I hope the network one day returns to its standard of objective economic news.

We’ve officially hit the "hard hat" era of AI. 🏗️ 🤖 Today’s NTT DATA Foresight Report makes it clear: 2026 is the year AI stops being a "tiara" for brands and starts becoming essential social infrastructure. The most interesting shift is psychological. We’re moving away from being impressed by what AI can do and moving toward a "Race to Trust." As AI agents gain more autonomy, cybersecurity is evolving into a layer of "adaptive intelligence" that doesn't just protect data, but protects the integrity of the AI’s decisions. In this new market, the winners won't be the ones with the flashiest models, but the ones who can prove their AI is reliable enough to be trusted with the keys to the business. nttdata.com/global/en/news…

@zshroff @andrewrsorkin @jimcramer There is a difference between having a strong political opinion and having your political opinion be the focal point of every thesis and interview you conduct. This isn’t about whose politics I agree more with, rather how one expresses their views and forgets basic journalism.

@TechGuru830 @andrewrsorkin @jimcramer Joe Kernan is BY FAR the worst of them all. Interesting omission. I think you are bothered by the politics you do not agree with.
