"Qui étaient les alliés de la Russie il y a encore deux ans ? Le Vénézuéla, la Syrie et l’Iran. Aujourd’hui, leurs dirigeants sont complètement lâchés par le pouvoir russe. Le moins que l’on puisse dire, c’est qu’il ne fait pas bon à être protégé par la Russie." @EmmanuelMacron

"I've never seen an American president, not just in our lifetime, in the last two centuries of American history, be that critical of a British prime minister." @RNicholasBurns tells me "a fundamental mistake is: disparage your allies, make life difficult for them at home, you really can't expect them to be with you in a fight that they didn't start

Mr Trump bullied his former European allies by brutally imposing tariffs. And more importantly by suggesting taking Groenland by force No surprise that the Europeans consider their US "allies" with a pinch of salt. Support a US Navy which later will just serve to pressure us?

Right but.... there's no room for a moratorium. One cannot leave the race. I guess it is #Anthropic position. Try to avoid misuse, orient the race positively...

oh yeah i should have linked autoresearch probably github.com/karpathy/autor… (you don't "use it" directly, it's just a recipe/idea - give it to your agent and apply to what you care about.) and the tweet about it that went mini-viral over the weekend with more context x.com/karpathy/statu…

One more step towards self-improving AIs.

Investigative journalist Whitney Webb: "They don't really need blackmail anymore... [Palantir is] the new Jeffrey Epstein." "If they want to blackmail you... they just access what Palantir sucked up about you—your search history, your communications, your finances, tweets you've liked in the past, all sorts of things." "You don't really need Epstein in the surveillance era." "The disturbing thing about Palantir is that it's really about pre-crime. They were the pioneers of predictive policing." "Palantir is the resurrection of [a] DARPA program called Total Information Awareness—that was so scandalous when it was announced it was defunded by Congress." "But then they realised that if they turned it into a private company, no one would complain. And that's how we got Palantir."

I don't know if people understand just how insanely egregious this is. First of all, 1) not only are NATO spending targets NOT legally binding (nothing in any NATO-related legal text mandates a specific GDP-based threshold for defense spending), but on top of this 2) Spain requested AND RECEIVED an exemption from the 5% target at the 2025 Hague Summit - NATO changed the declaration's language specifically to allow Spain to sign while publicly declaring it would not comply (jurist.org/news/2025/06/n…) This means that, legally speaking and according to NATO's own rules, Spain is doubly within its rights: there is no binding obligation to begin with, and Spain was excused from even this non-binding obligation. That's the first point: Germany's chancellor just endorsed - from the Oval Office - the U.S. punishing a fellow EU nation for refusing to comply with an obligation that doesn't exist in law, under a political pledge Spain was excused from at a NATO summit. The second point is that this 5% target has nothing to do with "defense", quite the contrary in fact: it is pretty explicitly an imperial tribute to the U.S. that will actually **weaken** European defense. That was Spain's main argument for refusing to comply: Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said that "committing to 5% would not make us any safer" because it "would only reinforce our dependence" on the U.S. (tiempoar.com.ar/ta_article/ped…) That's the insane thing about EU defense spending: in recent years, the more it has spent on defense, the more that spending has flowed to American contractors as opposed to European ones, making the EU defense industry weaker (x.com/adam_tooze/sta…). Increasing spending to 5% doesn't strengthen European defense: it accelerates exactly this transfer. All the more insane given the well-documented production backlogs in the U.S. defense industry and its inability to produce at scale: US defense analysts - including from Trump-adjacent think tanks like AEI (aei.org/research-produ…) - openly acknowledge that European customers would be deprioritized behind U.S. ones in any real conflict. AND, critically, a defense industry from a country that's increasingly hostile to Europe - explicitly so in its National Security Strategy - and whose weaponry has "kill switches" that allows for remote disabling. I mean, the sheer madness of it: anyone with an ounce of common sense can see that DOUBLING your defense spending to enrich a foreign arms industry that has kill switches on your weapons, can't meet its own military's needs, and increasingly treats you as an adversary, is not even remotely a defense strategy - it's suicide. That's why having Merz - in the oval office, sitting next to Trump - endorse economic coercion against the one EU country that's still sane enough to see through this madness is so egregious, and frankly straight-up traitorous. For those who know Asterix and Obelix, Spain is the "one small village still holding out against the invaders" and Merz is Cassius Ceramix, the self-described "gallo-roman" Gaul village chief who's the incarnation of all sycophants after his tribe were conquered by the Romans. I'm with Asterix, and all Europeans should be too.

Anthropic has launched a new feature for Claude called Import Memory, designed to make it completely frictionless for users to migrate away from competitors like ChatGPT and Gemini. Right as thousands of users are protesting OpenAI's military contract and migrating to Claude, Anthropic launched a simple two-step process to transfer all your ChatGPT or Gemini memories directly into Claude. You just paste a specific prompt into ChatGPT to extract your data, drop it into Claude's settings, and your new AI instantly knows all your preferences, coding styles, and project context.

Support #Anthropic. The only ones who refuse mass surveillance and the US drift towards an authoritarian regime.
