We just set the 1st Fully Autonomous, ZERO-Intervention Cannonball Run Record from LA-NY. In the middle of WINTER, through extreme cold, snow, ice, slush & rain, FSD drove 100% of the 3081 miles of our journey. 58 hrs, 22 min non-stop, except for charging. FSD 14.2.2.3 is an absolute game changer for personal autonomy. Incredibly, my Model S could have gotten to NYC faster WITHOUT us on board. @ElonMusk was right. Once an autonomous vehicle is mature, most human input is an error. A comedy of human errors added hours and hundreds of miles, but FSD stunned us with its consistent and comfortable behavior. MUCH more (hilarious) detail to follow. Thank you to my co-passengers @dackboor & Paul Pham, Tesla experts/enthusiasts who agreed to do this in the worst weather possible. Congrats to @aelluswamy and team for this incredible step forward. Data, pix and video coming soon. 1/x thedrive.com/news/a-tesla-a… @elonmusk @Scobleizer @wholemars @itskyleconner @SawyerMerritt @alex_avoigt @DavidMoss

Love this.

Tesla has released a new video with @DavidMoss, highlighting his recent cross-country trip on FSD (Supervised) with zero disengagements. "Moss’s Model 3 handled every road sign, turn and Supercharger stop, traveling over 2,700 miles in 2 days and 20 hours. Part of his over 12,000-mile streak of FSD (Supervised) usage, David’s cross-country trip demonstrates the reliability, capability and ease of FSD (Supervised)."

Imagine starting a fight with Reacher. Or even the actor who plays Reacher. 🤔

Still crazy to me that a 3 hour daily live show broke through to this degree.

We are in the era of tech-driven COGNITIVE WARFARE offense + defense a VERY key breakthrough work from Lux family co @SakanaAILabs they just engineered a proprietary new AI tech to detect (hostile, foreign) state actors in social media influence + information operations...
hardmaru@hardmaru

We recently worked with The Yomiuri Shimbun to analyze more than a million social media posts to map out state-sponsored information campaigns. #en" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">sakana.ai/narrative-inte… Keyword searches are fragile for modern OSINT. To fix this, our team used an ensemble of different LLMs combined with our Novelty Search algorithm to extract underlying narratives purely from context. (e.g., The system successfully mapped posts demanding "a politician retract a statement" to the broader, hidden narrative of "Taiwan interference"). The system clusters these granular narratives hierarchically and generates testable hypotheses, citing specific evidence. Human journalists took the AI-generated hypotheses, interviewed real-world government sources, and verified the timeline of the coordinated campaign our system uncovered. Fascinating look at human-AI collaboration for intelligence analysis.

Unilever makes 250,000 job applicants play video games before they’ll even look at a resume. For their Future Leaders program, instead of reading cover letters, they run candidates through 12 neuroscience-based games built by Pymetrics (now owned by Harver) that measure how you make decisions under pressure, how you handle risk, and how fast you learn. The games cut their hiring time from four months to four weeks and saved over 50,000 hours of recruiter time. JPMorgan, BCG, Accenture, Mastercard, and McDonald’s all use the same platform. There’s real science behind this. Researchers at three European universities put 40 business students through Sid Meier’s Civilization, then ran them through a Fortune 500-style management assessment center. Published in the Review of Managerial Science in 2020, the results were clear: students who scored highest in the game scored highest on problem-solving, organizing, and planning. They also had better grades. A 2013 study at Queen Mary University of London found the same pattern with StarCraft. 72 volunteers got 40 hours of training. The StarCraft group showed a significant improvement in cognitive flexibility (your brain’s ability to switch between tasks and think on your feet) compared to a control group that played The Sims. The statistical evidence was 40 times stronger than what you’d expect from chance. SimCity specifically has been used in university urban planning courses since 1994, when a professor named John Gaber started assigning it to teach systems thinking. A 2025 study found students who played it showed a 26% improvement in understanding sustainable city design, and 81% applied what they learned in the game to real projects. The Civilization study was a proof-of-concept with 40 students, not a 10,000-person trial. But the pattern across multiple studies, multiple games, and a $20 billion gamification industry keeps pointing the same direction. The meme is a joke. The science behind it isn’t.

I have spent a good part of my career just getting people to believe this was actually happening. Now we are here. With 15 drones, you can lose roughly 1/4 of the B-52 force as it sits idle on the ground. This was always the most concerning scenario. Time to move to hardening. Just a matter of time now till we learn the hard way.
Hey, Dave!@davegreenidge57

Barksdale AFB was hit by multiple waves of drones over a week’s time. The base houses numerous nuclear weapons.
