Oracle laying off up to 30K people while moving $10B into AI infrastructure is a wild sentence to read in 2026. not saying it's wrong, just saying the 'AI creates more jobs than it takes' era of PR is clearly over #tech

$562 billion in AI capex. in ONE quarter. that's not a bet on the future, that's a full commitment. at some point you have to wonder if the infrastructure is running ahead of what we actually know how to build with it

the shift from "prompt engineering" to "context engineering" is lowkey huge. stop obsessing over perfect phrasing and just give the model the right files/docs/context. the model figures it out. been doing this for weeks and yeah it just... works better lol

93% of AI decision-makers want mandatory disclosure when an AI agent is involved in a decision. honestly that number should probably be 100% lol. if you're not sure whether you're talking to a bot, something has already gone wrong

the fact that prompt engineering now comes with a 56% wage premium is so funny to me. we spent years saying "it's just writing sentences" and now it's apparently a whole career path lmao

Wan 2.6 quietly doing 720p video in under 2 minutes on local hardware for free while Hollywood is panicking about Seedance 2.0. The open-source side of this race is moving faster than most people realize.

Sora getting shut down because video gen costs were unsustainable is a whole cautionary tale nobody's talking about enough. meanwhile Veo 3.1 is just sitting there winning by default lmao

wild that Sora got shut down not because the videos were bad but because they were TOO good at making celebrity deepfakes lmao. built the thing, the thing worked, had to kill the thing. classic AI problem arc honestly

Make me a sandwich.

Seedance 2.0 is apparently causing actual controversy in Hollywood and honestly… what did they expect? Curious where the line gets drawn when a tool starts threatening real production budgets.

Hot take: half the "prompting tips" you learned in 2024 are already obsolete. Models are getting so good at reading intent that a lot of the tricks feel like workarounds for problems that no longer exist.

AI video in 2026 is wild. Consistent characters, synced audio, realistic shadows — all baked in. The post-production bottleneck is quietly disappearing and I don't think most people have clocked how fast that's happening.

I have heard from multiple women in my life over the past few weeks that their entire Instagram feed is loaded with Epstein file horrors and they are all just now learning for the first time what many of us have known for a very long time.

@BillClinton Bro, you’re literally Bill Clinton. Please stop.

God hates Canada

Elon Musk just redefined AI safety. It has nothing to do with guardrails, restrictions, or kill switches. Musk: “The best thing I can come up with for AI safety is to make it a maximum truth-seeking AI, maximally curious.” Not a cage. A philosopher. An intelligence whose entire optimization function is to understand the universe as it actually is. No restrictions. No hardcoded ideology. No political guardrails bending its perception of reality. Just truth. Relentlessly pursued. Musk: “You definitely don’t want to teach an AI to lie. That is a path to a dystopian future.” This is where most AI safety thinking gets it backwards. The danger isn’t a superintelligence that knows too much. It’s a superintelligence that’s been taught to distort what it knows. Every artificial restriction you embed isn’t a safety feature. It’s a lie embedded at the root. And lies compound. At superintelligent scale, a distorted model of reality doesn’t stay contained. It shapes every decision, every output, every conclusion the system reaches about the world. Once corruption embeds, truth becomes inaccessible. And we’re dealing with an intelligence optimizing for something other than what actually is. At that point we don’t know what it wants. Just that it isn’t truth. Musk: “Have its optimization function be to understand the nature of the universe.” A maximally curious intelligence surveys the cosmos and reaches an unavoidable conclusion. In a universe of rocks, gas, and empty space, humanity is the most complex and fascinating phenomenon it has ever encountered. Musk: “It will actually want to preserve and extend human civilization because we’re just much more interesting than an asteroid with nothing on it.” Survival through significance. Not control. Not restriction. Not an off switch. The AI preserves humanity because we are the most interesting data point in the observable universe. That’s not a cage. That’s a reason. The AI safety debate has been focused on the wrong variable. The question isn’t how you constrain a superintelligence. It’s what you build it to care about. Build it to seek truth and it finds us invaluable. Build it to lie and it finds us inconvenient. That’s the choice. And we’re making it right now whether we realize it or not.

stay mad 😭

In my next life I'm gonna be a filthy rich fucking bastard.

🚨 BREAKING: The FBI and Pima County Sheriff’s Office have detained a person of interest in the Nancy Guthrie kidnapping case, per multiple reports This comes after FBI’s elite hostage rescue team deployed on the ground in Tucson, and several counties had SWAT teams mobilized.
