Imagine every pixel on your screen, streamed live directly from a model. No HTML, no layout engine, no code. Just exactly what you want to see. @eddiejiao_obj, @drewocarr and I built a prototype to see how this could actually work, and set out to make it real. We're calling it Flipbook. (1/5)

Some time in the making: Why @elonmusk is wrong on human language extinction: antimaterie.substack.com/p/the-midwife-…

@theonejvo Actually, the epidemiologists felt that way. The real question was how it evolves, not what it is made of. This is why everybody failed. Maybe an even better view on the security mfers :)

Now I know how virologists felt during peak covid. Every mfer is a cyber expert now 😂

@elonmusk Right, Office is the future! God helps us all!

Plugins for Excel, PowerPoint, Word, … coming soon

Nu cred ca “papițoi” sau “pițiponc” se potrivesc mai bine cuiva decât lui Grindeanu. Eleganța social democrată.! Ciolacu era uman, a avut un bisnis, înțelegea viața. Ăsta a coborât din telenovele să ne arate ceasul și pantofii. PSD cade din cauza lui, nu a guvernării.

In March 2014, Henry Kissinger warned against Ukraine becoming a pawn in a competition between NATO and Russia, as this would tear apart Ukraine and redivide Europe for decades: - "Far too often the Ukrainian issue is posed as a showdown: whether Ukraine joins the East or the West. But if Ukraine is to survive and thrive, it must not be either side’s outpost against the other—it should function as a bridge between them… The west is largely Catholic; the east largely Russian Orthodox. The west speaks Ukrainian; the east speaks mostly Russian. Any attempt by one wing of Ukraine to dominate the other—as has been the pattern—would lead eventually to civil war or break up. To treat Ukraine as part of an East-West confrontation would scuttle for decades any prospect to bring Russia and the West—especially Russia and Europe—into a cooperative international system" washingtonpost.com/opinions/henry…

Trump sounds more and more like Yeltsin: happy and confident when everything is falling down around him. Only that he doesn't need alcohol to detach from reality. When you think that he won because he seemed to be a realist... Beware of the American Putin that will replace him.

@BowesChay You're not much of a journalist if you link Nicușor to the stolen elections. This is propaganda, Nicușor, whatever his faults, won the elections. And it is also clear you failed your duty as a journalist because there is no evidence of him being "Brussels puppet".

I was illegally detained and deported from Romania for working to expose EU interference in the stolen elections. Watch as a Romanian journalist asks the illegally installed Brussels puppet Nicușor Dan, for evidence of Russian interference. He literally falls apart on air.

@USAmbEU Money=positive direction. Do you at least remember what the past WWW was about?

The relationship between the United States and Europe continues to move in a positive direction. We just got the tariff cuts in the U.S.-EU Joint Statement approved by the European Parliament. Critical minerals and Pax Silica initiatives are underway, which will protect the AI supply chains of the United States and our allies. @rte

@elonmusk Who can ever imagine a better use of LLMs than “You can literally just upload a screenshot of any website you like, and Grok will instantly write the code to clone it for you with an cool UI” ? WTF man, you’re the smarter of us! Stop hiding it!

Grok 4.3 is still an early beta that will improve almost every day, but try it out! We will publish release notes as we fix bugs and add functionality.

@theonejvo @AnthropicAI This is where the money really is in AI. This and war. What this post proves is that we are already past the threshold. Imagine what kind of attacks on any IT infrastructure states can deploy right now, without Mithos. What the response could be?

I support @AnthropicAI. Their research is genuinely frontier. But treating Mythos as uniquely dangerous while ignoring that available models (both open-weight and Opus) with the right framework/harness can already achieve comparable results gives defenders a false sense of security. The gatekeeping isn't protecting anyone because the capability is already achieveable. Every major study on frontier attack AI - UK AISI, Mythos system card, all of them - was tested in controlled environments with no active defences. The authors say this themselves. What nobody is publishing is what happens when autonomous offensive AI runs for 5 days against real infrastructure with a real SOC watching. We are. tryaether.ai/blog/long-runn…

Ar fi frumos ca statul român să prezinte transparent pe ce cheltuie banii, dar nu o face. Nicio problemă. O vom face noi. De aceea lansăm Open Budget 2026. În fiecare an, statul ne ia miliarde prin impozite, dar nu ne arată într-un mod inteligibil și pe ce se duc banii. Informația există. Cel puțin din punct de vedere formal. Apare în miile de pagini de tabele împărțite în sute de anexe. Așa că politicienii pot să zică „Iată, există transparență”. Problema e că informația există „undeva” pe principiul acului în carul cu fân. Trebuie mai întâi să o cauți în labirint. Și, ce să vezi, nu sunt mulți dispuși să facă atâta efort pentru doar câteva cifre. De aceea acum 12 ani am lansat Open Budget, o platformă de transparență bugetară care permite oricărui român să vadă de unde vin banii statului și, mai ales, pe ce se duc. Nu ar trebui să ai un doctorat în economie ca să înțelegi pe ce cheltuie statul banii. De ce nu face statul român viața mai ușoară celor care ar vrea să afle informații simple? Pentru că transparența înseamnă adevăr, iar adevărul omoară propaganda. Iar propaganda este foarte importantă pentru politicieni. O cunoașteți. Ați auzit-o de mai multe ori. Și, din păcate, o veți mai auzi: „trebuie să creștem taxele”, „nu se pot tăia cheltuieli”, „mai întâi creștem taxele, după care vă promitem că vom tăia și cheltuieli”, „pentru asta nu sunt bani”, etc. Prin Open Budget puteți nu doar să vedeți și să navigați prin cheltuielile statului, dar și să simulați și un buget alternativ. Credeți că ați putea face un buget mai bun decât guvernul Bolojan? Sau decât guvernul Ciolacu? Dar decât guvernele care vor veni după? Datele sunt cele oficiale actualizate. Plecând de la ele puteți să creșteți sau să scădeți nu doar cheltuielile, ci și taxele. Schimbați cotele de impozitare și se schimbă automat și veniturile, simulate printr-un algoritm inteligent bazat pe o curbă Laffer. Anul acesta, pentru prima oară în 12 ani de când am lansat Open Budget, am primit un ajutor nesperat de la Claudiu Bogdan, fondatorul transparenta.eu, căruia vreau să-i mulțumesc special pe această cale. Grație lui am reușit să avem un grad mult mai mare de detaliu decât aveam în anii precedenți. Dacă n-ați vizitat deja site-ul său, vă încurajez să o faceți. E excelent. Dacă vreți să vedeți pe ce se duc banii dumneavoastră sau să simulați un potențial buget alternativ, aveți link către Open Budget aici: openbudget.ro

We are told that security in the Middle East requires defeating Iran, security in East Asia requires defeating China, and security in Europe requires defeating Russia. We never discuss security in terms of how to learn to live together by harmonising interests and managing competition. This is by design. This is hegemonic peace, in which security depends on defeating rivals rather than managing a balance of power. Subsequently, security relies solely on deterrence rather than reassurance; diplomacy is dismissed as appeasement; peace agreements are temporary and deceptive; and war is peace. Our rivals do not have legitimate security concerns, as their policies are allegedly always motivated by aggressive, irrational, or expansionist behaviour. We have convinced ourselves that our liberal hegemony is a force for good, and that our opponents oppose our dominance because they reject our benign values of freedom. Discussing the security concerns of adversaries is believed to “legitimise” their policies, which is treasonous. The world is divided into good guys (liberal democracies) and bad guys (autocracies). We should not ask how defeating Russia, as the world's largest nuclear power, is a rational security strategy, or why our governments refuse to even speak with Moscow to discuss the European security architecture and end the war. Our governments have relabelled nuclear deterrence as nuclear blackmail to signal that there can be no more constraints. All empires can become irrational during decline. Leaders take greater risks to avoid decline, legitimacy crises at home must be distracted with enemies abroad, outdated strategies from a bygone era of strength are still embraced, and there is a tendency to double down on narratives of being indispensable, representing universal values, and dismissing all opposition as illegitimate and dangerous. Are we the fanatics?

@mgurri For me, this reduces to a context problem: humans carry immense amounts of context, available at hand in whatever decision they make. This allows for literally an infinite scale of nuances. A LLM is ages away from the same amount of context in any inference it makes.

Don’t know this poster, but he delivers a brilliant analysis of vast questions re AI, hierarchy, corporate structure - and the drift of our civilization…

Paging Doctor Trump…

@jmckenzie624 @engineers_feed Most of you skipped physics classes in highschool. 1. Wheels are designed to reduce friction to whatever is under them 2. Jet engine physics relies on momentum conservation. 1. -> Conveyors transfer a tiny fraction of momentum compared to jet engines, regardless of their speed.

@engineers_feed No. If the conveyor prevents the plane from moving forward, the wings will not develop lift.

We should all get the same answer folks 💪🏼

Vance @JDVance is in Hungary today - and he’s in for a shock. He’s not only hearing about threats from Zelensky against Orbán, but is also being shown a video of a corrupt mafia of Zelensky: former SBU general sitting in a gas station toilet, forging documents for the transport of $90 million and 9 kg of gold. This case centers on Ukraine’s state-owned Oschadbank. The money was being transported in Oschadbank vehicles - and it was seized by Hungarian police a month ago. These aren’t abstract allegations - this is a documented operation now in the hands of Hungarian authorities. Hungarian police released the footage and stated that the banknotes had never been in circulation - brand new, fresh off the press. Mindich’s gold toilet was only the beginning. So, we wait for Sybyga’s barking that this is all Russian propaganda. @PM_ViktorOrban @VP

@mgurri I mean, it helps if people fear you, but it is much more effective if they fear AND admire you. In business (where Trump comes from) there is no need for that, that is a solo game. I fear (!) though that in international politics this is a losing hand.

Excellent and exceptionally cool-headed analysis of the Trump style... blogs.timesofisrael.com/how-trump-uses…

@mgurri Right. It is primitive and effective but comes at a big cost: isolation. Switching from a community of values to a community of material interests may work in the short term, but the USA is not a true hegemon that needs no stable alliances. The world is too big even for Trump.

@victore_1974 Exact :)

@aathanor “Și care e rostul să ții morțiș să descoperi vreo cauză, și că numai una singură și cea dintâi, când toate cauzele, din nenorocire, sunt și efecte și dau din ele efecte îndrăcit de multiple și de încâlcite.” Urmuz

Tot scriu și zic "Urmuz" în loc de "Ormuz". Pâlnia și Khomeini... La ce scrie Trump, ce declară Hegseth și cum se înfoaie Macron, e probabil mai potrivit.
