A lot of young guys think the opportunity is gone. Houses are expensive. College is expensive. Wages feel stuck. AI feels like it’s coming for every job. But I think one of the biggest opportunities of the next decade is hiding in plain sight: Learn a real-world skill. Understand infrastructure. Use AI tools. Build leverage.

The pro-data center slop is funny and shows what bubbles these guys live in. Their tone is insulting. Their talking points glib. They also keep bringing up China. The country they are in bed with. They want to censor you like it’s Covid again. That’s the agenda. Your enslavement.

i understand your point. I dont blanket disagree. "Slop" has been used at scale since the start of Hollywood (and well before). Means of control havent come or go theyve only adapted. AI does nothing new, that we havent experienced as a society. its just another thing to adapt to and hope we'll be served better than we have been before.

The opposite. Data centers will enable Big Tech to produce more slop at scale. (In addition to a digital currency + mass surveillance.) They should use their resources more efficiently.

@Cernovich The anti data center crowd acts like these facilities are just some abstract evil, but they’re the physical backbone of the thing that’s actually pulling the economy forward right now. Someone has to build it.

Most people still talk about AI like the only constraint is how good the models get. The harder limit right now is actually building the power. We’re announcing massive data centers while transformers are backordered for years and utilities are already struggling in several regions. Some of these projects are going to run into serious delays not because of hype or funding, but because the physical infrastructure can’t be built fast enough. The market is starting to price in power and transmission, but the actual construction and labor side is still being underestimated.

@SpaceX Every time I see one of these rollouts I remember that somewhere there’s still a county planning board taking three years to approve a warehouse.

President Trump’s Ratepayer Protection Pledge is putting America first. He’s calling on the nation’s leading AI companies to build, bring, or buy 100% of the energy they need for their data centers. No more sticking Americans with the bill. ⚡

The practical version of this is simple: use AI on the parts of your life where confusion costs money. Contracts, budgets, taxes, job skills, business ideas, negotiation, pricing, writing.
Anthony Pompliano 🌪@APompliano

Artificial intelligence can make you wealthier. The pessimists are wrong and they are trying to stop you from using this technology to improve your financial life. Don't let them. I explained to @MariaBartiromo this morning on Fox Business.

@buccocapital The strongest pro-AI argument should be that more people get access to capabilities they used to be locked out of. Instead, the loudest version people hear is “your labor is expensive and we found a workaround.” i think the messaging does need a revamp but i dont think they care

1 of 3 things is true about big tech’s AI narrative: 1) Nobody can tell a compelling story about how AI will be good for society 2) It hasn’t occurred to them to tell that story 3) They believe it’ll be bad, but it’s not their job to fix it I don’t know which is more damning

@mark_k @xai IMO its the best partnership in the space. Cursor is an extremely underrated harness and with Elon behind it i expect massive leaps

I suspect the next Cursor Composer model will be Grok-based, not Kimi-based like the current one. Composer 3 might even be the Grok 1.5T model @xai is currently training on Colossus 2. At this point, the xAI acquisition of Cursor also looks more and more like a done deal.
Cursor@cursor_ai

Together with SpaceXAI, we’re training a significantly larger model from scratch, using 10x more total compute. With Colossus 2’s million H100-equivalents and our combined data and training techniques, we expect this to be a major leap in model capability.

@unusual_whales This is why “just raise revenue” never lands cleanly with normal people. If the bucket is leaking faster every year, people want to know why they’re being asked to pour more in.

@RonDeSantis If the pitch is “a few people get rich, everyone else gets managed,” people are going to reject it. Adoption needs to come with a believable path for normal people to become more capable, not just more dependent.

Gloating about people’s jobs getting wiped out and championing sticking people on government checks for subsistence… yeah, not hard to see why many would not look favorably on that.
Chief_Engineer@ChiefEngineerCE

@RonDeSantis They have offered zero value proposition for implementation. It's all - 'Hey Tech bros are going to get incredibly rich and powerful while everyone loses their job!- isn't that great?' Or 'We need to make everyone unemployed before China does.'

@kevinolearytv Foreign interference isnt the biggest problem right now. Between permitting and even when projects get approved, we don't have enough skilled trades and electrical labor to actually build the substations and transmission lines at the speed these data centers need.

Who is messing with anyone who wants to build out the US power grid or add to compute capacity. It’s our friends, the #Chinese government. I’m not the only guy at sounding the alarm!

@Jason The worst advice right now is telling people to form a political opinion about AI before they’ve even used it for one task. Try it on the email, the schedule, the resume, the school project, the business idea. Then decide what you think.

The NYTimes story is poorly reasoned. It tells women to give up and be angry, while throwing successful women -- who they should be lauding -- under the bus. Total loser/victim mindset. Resse, on the other hand, gives extremely straightforward advice: start using it, it's really helpful.

The NYT is predictably tearing down Reese Witherspoon for encouraging moms to try AI before they ingest the anti-AI pablum as truth Instead of linking to the NYT op-ed, I think you should watch this video and encourage you to follow Reese Witherspoon on Instagram

@elonmusk @SciGuySpace This is the real Starship bet and why its worth 2.5 trillion. Not that every test works, but that production gets fast enough for failure to stop being existential. That is a very different model than traditional aerospace.

The stakes for this week's Starship launch are high. The US commercial space industry is depending on lower launch costs and higher capacity. NASA’s lunar ambitions, to a great degree, hinge on its success. And the stakes are highest of all for SpaceX. arstechnica.com/space/2026/05/…
