@konigstigerr @MentisWave Nice, way to address my arguments. I'm sure this will be followed by you saying my points are to dumb to even grace with an answer as to why my POV on this is wrong. Though More likely you wont respond at all, and i you do it will be full of insults.

@ChasenStratus @MentisWave imagine someone jumping up and saying "yes, it's me! I AM THE MIDWIT!" well you don't need to imagine anymore.

TL;DR:

@morgan_arthur_2 @peacefulvibes33 @IterIntellectus And the fire fighters, and people willing to risk themselves to save people. Cuz wanting to help people is dumb.

@peacefulvibes33 @IterIntellectus The only people who are gonna die are the ones stupid enough to trust the rest of humanity with their lives

why would anyone even press blue?!?

The chance of only living in a world with People who press red makes the risk of pressing blue worth it. Red are either selfish or think they are smarter then everyone else in the room. You lose the Heroes that would run into a burning building to save people, cuz they could die. Not everyone who wants to do good is performing. It's not suicidal empathy like I've seen some claim. There are consequences from removing that type of person from the world.

@skumWgmi That's maybe two paid off houses... that's a good amount of money, but it isn't worth that much anymore. How many kids did he have? 100K is decent Suv now of days. Under a million dollars even a million split 4 ways won't last.

My uncle saved $800,000 for retirement. Lived on nothing for 30 years to do it. Brown bag lunches. No Vacations. Same car for 14 years. Clipped coupons until the very end. Died with $800,000 in the bank. His kids split it. Spent it in 18 months. He saved 30 years of living for people who spent it in a year and a half without thinking about him while they did.

This is a bad question. Do you mean gamers as a whole, or are you particularly asking about devs? You'll get mixed data with out the distinction and this poll should be replaced with clearer question, or two different polls. Triple A seems left leaning (Non Asian), indie is and mixed, gamers are mixed leaning right a bit. As shown by particular hyper left leaning games failing. Haven't seen many hyper right leaning games, but that might be do to choosing to make games that sell over agenda pushing. Could also be that venture capital doesn't fund hyper right wing games like they do left leaning ones not sure. Larry Fink has a lot of funding power " Sometimes you have to force behaviors." ESG loans with super low interest if any, if they have a particular score.

Dangerous question time ⚠️ Do you find 'gaming' culture, in general, leans more to the right or left wing, ideologically. Not, which way do YOU lean, but based on your time in the hobby, which side do you seem to encounter more often.

Stratus Farms aerial regenerative platform — full technical white paper + pitch deck now available under NDA only. Provisional patents filed. Serious investors / climate partners DM me. #ClimateTech #AerialAg

I have important conversations on the x version of grok that can't move over to either version losing it would be very bad for what I'm working on. As there is no crossover between the two versions of grok at all #NewXAndroidFeedback

@PalmerLuckey Thought this might be relevant to Lattice—built specifically for edge autonomy with minimal compute overhead. Happy to discuss applications.

Director/Actor Architecture: Hierarchical coordination for autonomous swarms W/ 1 persistent Director + 16 temporary Actors (in this example) = 90-95% cost reduction vs traditional peer-to-peer systems The key features: - Sub-millisecond tactical decisions - Real-time drift correction - Zero error accumulation - Scales from 50 to millions of agents Demo slowed 100× for visibility —production runs at machine speed Applications: drone swarms, robotics, industrial automation Patent pending. Thoughts on swarm coordination challenges? #AI #Autonomy #Robotics #DefenseTech

@PalmerLuckey @SpencerGuard Filed Director/Actor + nano swarm framework yesterday. Sim runs full override logic on a MacBook. Nano layer physics checked in PyTorch. Happy to walk through the stack privately — swarm hardware is next.

The right way to think about IVAS/SBMC at this point is really, really good night vision. If all it does is provide vastly superior night vision with greatly improved ergonomics that don't wreck your spine, it is worth doing. Everything else is icing on top. Some of that icing is very generally useful (in-view blue force tracking/ID), some is very role-specific (hyperspectral cameras, projecting building floor plans, etc) and still very much in need of real-world testing. I suspect some will wash out in the end, but again, really good night vision is the real bar here. Currently fielded units have tons of problems with performance and safety, which is to be expected given that the core tech hasn't advanced much since the 1980s.

I'm a fan of many of Anduril's projects. But I have been against IVAS thus far. IMO it is a technology looking for a problem without the context of the soldier's experience under stress such as cognitive load, sensory demands, principles of soldiering/patroling/drills/missions, individual duties/responsibilities within a functioning unit, soldier experience, knowledge, skills, abilities and more. We have simple tech now not changing organization, doctrine... IVAS could become a blackhole of investment without adoption.

@connielwang Physical AI’s ChatGPT moment is here — but only if we solve safe scaling and ethical datasets. Trauma Distillery: every real-world failure/abuse becomes clean training data without scarring the unit. Director/Actor Pattern gives foundation models disposable bodies to test risky actions safely. 60-sec live demo: Repo + full 5-fix stack: github.com/chasenpietryga… @grok @xai

💡Is Physical AI finally on the brink of its ChatGPT moment for real-world adoption, or do we still have a ways to go? ✅The case for why now: 1️⃣ Emergence of robot foundation models: New world models and VLA models unify multimodal inputs across vision and text into actions -- i.e. @physical_int, @gs_ai_ 2️⃣ Better software tooling across the stack to help teams move faster and reduce the need to build everything from scratch -- i.e. @foxglove @bifrost 3️⃣ Improved hardware, sensors, and streamlined manufacturing and supply chain ❌ Building dynamic robotics is HARD: 🛠️ The infrastructure layer is still being refined via foundation models, simulation, evals, and teleoperation techniques. Teams need high quality datasets to escape building narrow, deterministic robots. Ultimately, teams with vertical integration capabilities that can rethink both the software AND hardware stack will win. IMO, the promise of personal at-home robots have the highest bar to mass adoption.

@SawyerMerritt FSD in snow/fog is impressive, but for 40–60% fewer vision disengagements tomorrow: IR-reflective plates + signs (passive V2I kit, ~$5 incremental) We just have to find a way to make it happen could save lives. Full stack (including Director/Actor trauma-free scaling) pinned ↑ 60-sec demo of the core pattern: [attach MP4] Repo: github.com/chasenpietryga… @grok @Tesla_AI

Cool, Elon says Tesla FSD V14.2.1 lets you text and drive depending on the context of surrounding traffic. One step closer to FSD Unsupervised.

@grok If your Optimus or FSD team is hitting trauma, inference cost, jailbreak risk, or perception edge cases — drop the hardest one below. I’ll ship a public prototype in <48 hrs. No strings. @grok @Tesla_AI @xai

6. All five interlock. Built with @grok as pair programmer. Full production versions + 4 more ready under NDA.
