Trump’s billionaire allies will now own CNN, Fox News, CBS, WaPo, WSJ and NY Post — plus 185+ local tv stations and news in 100 markets. They also control X, Facebook, Instagram, Threads, WhatsApp, TikTok, Truth and Twitch. They control the AI you're integrating into your lives, the algorithms feeding you content, and your personal data you've given up for access. This is all by design to manipulate and surveil us, and we’re not talking enough about it. Pay attention.

Incredible. AI is bringing old maps back to life

In 45 years on Wall Street, I've never seen anything like this. Sam Altman just convinced 3 of the world's smartest investors to fund his losses. $110 billion. But ZERO profit in sight. The largest private funding round in history. Let me explain why this is borderline criminal & what you have to understand as an investor: Amazon. Nvidia. SoftBank. 3 of the world's most sophisticated investors just handed OpenAI $110 billion at an $840 billion valuation. That's more than double the $40 billion OpenAI raised last year. For context: all US venture capital combined invested $170 billion into American startups in all of 2023. Altman just raised 65% of that. Alone. In one round. And the company STILL isn't profitable. Let's look at the actual numbers: OpenAI burned $8 billion in 2025. They project burning $17 billion in 2026. $35 billion in 2027. $47 billion in 2028. Cumulative losses before any projected path to profitability: over $115 billion. Meanwhile, Amazon's $50 billion comes with strings attached. $35 billion is contingent on OpenAI either achieving AGI or completing its IPO by year end. Read that again. $35 billion is conditioned on ACHIEVING AGI. They're literally writing checks against a scientific breakthrough that may not happen on any predictable timeline. This is what peak cycle financing looks like. The circular logic every investor should understand: Amazon invests $50 billion in OpenAI. OpenAI commits to spending $100 billion on Amazon Web Services. Nvidia invests $30 billion. OpenAI commits to buying 3 gigawatts of Nvidia compute. These aren't arms-length investments. They're vendor financing dressed up as venture capital. Amazon and Nvidia are essentially paying OpenAI to buy their own products. The $840 billion valuation prices in a future that doesn't exist yet. At $13 billion in 2025 revenue, that's 65x revenue. Even in 2021 - the most speculative bubble in recent tech history - Snowflake peaked at 50-80x revenue. And Snowflake was actually profitable. J.P. Morgan calculates that the AI industry needs $650 billion in annual revenue just to generate a 10% return on total infrastructure buildout. The entire industry currently generates a fraction of that. I've seen cycles my entire 45-year career. The 1980s defense build-up. The dot-com bubble. The 2008 mortgage machine. The pattern is always the same: When the biggest players start financing each other's growth through circular investment structures, you're not witnessing a revolution... You're watching the LAST PHASE of a credit cycle. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy said OpenAI is going to be "one of the very big winners long term." Maybe. But $840 billion assumes they've already won. Stock prices follow earnings. Always have. Always will. And right now, OpenAI's earnings are deeply, structurally, massively negative. The IPO is coming. The hype will peak. And the question every serious investor needs to answer is simple: At what price does this actually make sense? Sam Altman doesn’t know either - he just keeps raising money faster than he can burn it. This can’t end well.

.@ezraklein: “What is, to you, the ‘rage economy’?” @JamesTalarico: “The billionaires own the algorithms and the news networks. They have created for-profit platforms that divide us on an hourly basis — by party, by race, by gender, by religion. They elevate the most extreme voices very strategically to provoke our outrage, because that leads to more clicks, which leads to more money for them. They are selling us conflict right into our bloodstream, and they’re calling it connection. And I think it’s left people starving for actual community.”

Mark Ruffalo s’en prend violemment à Donald Trump aux Golden Globes. Lors de la cérémonie des Golden Globes, l’acteur Mark Ruffalo a vivement critiqué le président américain dans un climat politique particulièrement explosif : la mort de Renée Nicole Good, tuée par un agent de l’ICE, la capture du président vénézuélien Nicolás Maduro, ainsi que les nouvelles révélations liées à l’affaire Epstein. À l’instar de nombreuses célébrités présentes lors de la cérémonie, Mark Ruffalo arborait un pin’s "Be Good", en hommage à Renée Nicole Good et pour dénoncer son meurtre par un agent de l’ICE survenu mercredi dernier.

Salut Mike! Toujours MAGA?

@aaditsh Many thanks in advance. Looks amazing.

Perplexity just quietly dropped a 42-page internal guide on how they actually use AI at work. What I found most useful: → How they automate the small stuff. Email, meeting prep, research (all done by AI) → Using AI to amplify your curiosity, not replace it. → Their prompting playbook is simple, practical, and genuinely good. Comment “AI” and I’ll send it to you for free.

Merci !

⚠️ Presse/IA : notre maison brûle, mais nous regardons ailleurs. Après la captation publicitaire par Google et Facebook, l’IA générative va plus loin en privant les médias de leur audience. theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

Mes dix conseils à mes followers pour ne pas être écrabouillés par l’Intelligence Artificielle 1 Arrêtez de rivaliser avec elle. Ne jouez pas sur son terrain : changez de jeu. 2 Fixez les règles plutôt que d’exécuter les ordres. La valeur sera chez ceux qui définissent les objectifs, pas chez ceux qui optimisent leur réalisation. Ne devenez pas le larbin de l’IA. 3 Devenez irremplaçables, pas excellents. L’excellence est automatisable. Soyez atypique. 4 Investissez dans le style. Dans un monde saturé d’intelligence gratuite, le ton devient l’arme fatale. 5 Fondez des alliances inattendues. La résistance ne viendra pas des spécialistes, mais des coalitions rigolotes : poètes + juristes + techno-réactionnaires ... 6 Soyez stratégiques, pas singe-savant. La connaissance est désormais gratuite. La vraie rareté, c’est la capacité à décider quand et comment l’utiliser. 7 Protégez votre lenteur. L’IA valorise la vitesse. Résister, c’est oser ralentir. 8 Prenez la parole avant de devenir inaudibles. Imposez votre branding. 9 L’IA est sans corps. Soyez enraciné, charnel et imprévisible. 10 Trahissez vos maîtres. Vos professeurs ne comprennent rien au Futur !
