.@elonmusk just crossed $800 billion — roughly 2.7% of the entire US GDP. The last person to hold that much of the American economy? John D. Rockefeller in 1913. It took a century for anyone to match him. Rockefeller had oil. Musk has the future.

I actually think the whole "permanent underclass" narrative is wrong.
I think we're about to see the largest EXPLOSION of entrepreneurship in human history.
I get why the fear exists. Jobs are getting cut. AI researchers are privately saying most people are screwed. The models are getting ridiculously better and faster than anyone expected. Project that forward linearly and yeah, it looks BLEAK.
But linear projections are usually wrong during platform shifts. Nobody projected that the internet would create 50 million small businesses. They projected Walmart would eat everything. Nobody projected that mobile would create a million app developers. They projected phones were just phones.
What actually happens is intelligence gets cheap and a flood of new builders enter the market with domain knowledge the incumbents never had. Millions will get laid off or just never hired over the next 24-36 months. Those jobs are not coming back. So they become entrepreneurs. Out of necessity at first. Then out of opportunity.
The underclass idea is VIRAL because it confirms something people have been feeling for a decade. That the ground is shifting and nobody at the top is reaching down. And they're right.
But the interesting thing about this particular technology is that it doesn't check your resume or your zip code. The same tool that eliminates your position hands you the ability to build the thing that replaces it. The weapon and the escape hatch are the same object.
We're about to see more new companies started in the next 5 years than in the previous 50.
And I think we're going to look back at this moment the way we look back at 1995.
Everyone was scared. Everyone was right to be. And the people who built anyway became the next generation of owners.
I know you might be reading about the permanent underclass and it's scary. Who wants to "get stuck in the permanent underclass no one.
My POV is the permanent underclass isn't a foregone conclusion. I know some people are genuinely struggling right now and "just go build" sounds tone deaf when you're worried about rent. I get that.
But the reason I'm optimistic is that the cost to start something just dropped to nearly zero, intelligence on tap, and eveyr category/industry you can think of is getting reshuffled.
The explosion of entrepreneurship is just beginning.

This is the the quote I've been citing a lot recently.

you can outsource your thinking but you cannot outsource your understanding

@Airaasayss I walk into a room with 50 people, me + 50 = 51 + 1 killer = 52 - 30 killed, leaves 22 people. One is you, then the killer, and 20 others

@ribzoftiktok Imagine going shopping just to get the ingredients to create this slop

Not a big fan of Sam, but more people should be talking about this

feels like a good time to seriously rethink how operating systems and user interfaces are designed (also the internet; there should be a protocol that is equally usable by people and agents)

Well, I wouldn't prompt it like that since it would be reverse engineering their software and Claude may not oblige like it would if approached differently.
Try, "I want an app like Trello I can use to manage my tasks, I was list of statuses, then a kanban view to easy drag them. Include tags, description, comments, details, etc, like other task boards include"

I finally got my Hermes running like a top with ChatGPT 5.5 as my main agent, then I have a couple other profiles such as a builder, then a builder-swarm(using kimi k2.6) and then I have /grunt which is a profile that uses Qwen 3.6 27B Dense on my 3090 locally via llama-cpp.
My main(Atlas) is who I talk to and then he delegates the work below him to builder, builder-swarm or grunt.
I also have obsidian set up as a second brain, and heavily use it for all projects and ideas. Highly recommend!
I have some other plans for it, but this is what I have been running for the last week and it feels like it’s getting stronger each day!
