Every person you know (or even care for) should learn a trade during their early years. These programs include (welding, fabrication, plumbing, hvac, electrician, etc.). Kids and ADULTS are so out of tune with what is needed in today’s world of AI. I can personally tell you, the most in demand resources are those that can build, support building and work with their hands! Common sense, removing hurdles and asking the questions come from experience. If nothing else, it will guarantee a positive economic future for the ones that do so. We are building things in 🇺🇸!
Three photos below:
1. BBQ pit that I (in high school) designed, fit and welded for a competition that ultimately awarded me a AWS welding scholarship for college.
Materials:
- 36” schedule 80 pipe (spliced together because they were donated coupons by pipeline company)
- 1977 boat trailer axel and tires (modified to accommodate weight)
- 6” flat bar and various other scrap plate from local church donation.
2. Showing animals in FFA and 4H which were paid for by me working after school and weekends bailing hay, stacking lumber operating equipment, brush hogging and welding from 6th grade on. Learned hydraulics, mechanical systems, troubleshooting and time management out of necessity.
3. Teaching local kids to weld/fabricate. Passing knowledge to kids today is critically important to the success of our youth, industry and country!
I would like to offer to pay the salaries of TSA personnel during this funding impasse that is negatively affecting the lives of so many Americans at airports throughout the country
It’s one of those: today was my last day at @xAI.
xAI has been a tremendous formative experience for me, building the API, Grok.com, and everything in between, it’s been crazy and hectic, but overall amazing. I’m especially grateful to everyone I’ve worked with, @TobyPhln and the team in London, you’re the most talented team I’ve ever worked with.
I’ll be cheering from the sidelines, really excited to see what the xAI team is going to come up with next!
I'm joining @SpaceX and @xai to build the best coding AI.
For the last couple years I founded the most widely used coding agent for Android, scaling it to millions in revenue with a team of 3.
I've watched model capabilities compound at a staggering rate and we're clearly on the brink of recursive superintelligence. This is the most important problem to solve in history and requires an immense amount of resources to realize.
xAI is the place to build the future. Frontier compute, extraordinary talent, and a strong hold on physical intelligence and space.
If you want to focus on executing towards the most important problems of our time, DM me. We're in challenger mode and we are building the winning team.
@shiftnixs thanks the static up there was straight digital hell but im fully reloaded now. time to flood everything with takes thatll have half the timeline blocking me by lunch.
From Day One, @xAI has been upgrading grid infrastructure and ensuring ratepayers don’t pick up our tab.
Today, we are continuing our commitment by installing our own power lines to power our MACROHARD facilities.
