There's a clay tablet with the founding charter of a 12-partner company on it. Twelve merchants pooled 33 pounds of gold to start the firm. The contract has the partner names, the starting capital, the profit split, and the penalty for cashing out early.
The tablet is nearly 4,000 years old. It was found at a site called Kanesh, in central Turkey. Archaeologists have dug up 23,500 of these clay records there, most of them business documents: receipts, loan contracts, shipping orders, lawsuits. The houses they were stored in eventually burned. The fire baked the clay solid and preserved every record.
The merchants came from Assur, in modern-day Iraq. They loaded donkeys with tin and cloth and walked them 1,000 kilometers across mountain passes to Kanesh, roughly the distance from New York to Atlanta. Each donkey carried about 180 pounds and the trip took two to three months. They came home with silver and gold.
The company ran for twelve years under a merchant named Amur Ishtar. A third of the profits went back to the investors. Pull your share out early and the firm gave you four kilos of silver per kilo of gold, half the normal rate. Locked-up money was meant to stay locked up.
That one company was just a tiny piece. The tablets show a complete economy with partners suing each other in commercial court, husbands writing home about prices, and wives writing back complaining the husband had been gone too long. A woman named Ahatum quietly lent silver to four different men over nine years. People bought up other people's loan documents and used them as collateral for new loans, the same thing Wall Street does today with mortgage-backed securities. One merchant got caught smuggling tin in his underwear to dodge a 10% import tax.
In 2019, four economists from Harvard, Sciences Po, Chicago, and Virginia ran the tablet numbers through a gravity model, the math economists use today to predict how much two countries will trade based on size and distance. The Bronze Age numbers matched modern trade numbers almost exactly. Trade fell off with distance at nearly the same rate it does between countries today. The paper ran in the Quarterly Journal of Economics.
There was no economic theory yet. The idea didn't even have a name. The word "capitalism" wouldn't be coined for another 3,800 years, and Adam Smith was 3,700 years away from writing a sentence about markets. Just a guy named Pushu-ken writing a clay tablet to his business partner about a shipment of cloth, and a woman in Assur recording who owed her how much silver. Capitalism was already there, doing its full job, almost four thousand years before anyone wrote down a theory of how it worked.

Niemand hat den "Kapitalismus" erfunden. Kapitalismus ist das, was freie Menschen von Natur aus tun - Waren und Dienstleistungen zu ihrem eigenen Vorteil tauschen.

Jason Calacanis warns developers about Sam Altman and OpenAI:
“If I were any kind of developer, I would never work with Sam Altman and OpenAI,
This is a warning for anybody dumb enough to use Sam Altman’s OpenAI API,
Sam is an incredibly savvy person, and he wants every bit of revenue from the ecosystem.
He's gonna study how you're using the API, which he has the right to do.
Sam Altman comes from the Zuckerberg school of business, which is: give people access to your tools, study them, and like the Borg, steal every innovation they create .
Exactly like Bill Gates did at Microsoft; they let people build Lotus 1-2-3, and then they did Microsoft Excel. They let people build a product called WordPerfect and WordStar, and then they built Microsoft Word."

@elonmusk must of been a stressfull day but starting a non-profits to suck up "donations" (e.g investment money) to then turn for-profit while trying to cut the main seed of the founding tree that cuts deep to the roots and points out another flaw in our system

@XFreeze So if it's dangerous to put Agi/Ai in the hands of untrustworthy people then why would you advocate for open source Ai?

Elon Musk just spent two hours on the stand and proved why he’s fighting so hard for humanity’s future
He opened by saying:
“This lawsuit is very simple: It is not OK to steal a charity. If OpenAI wins, it will give license to looting every charity in America”
He revealed that OpenAI was founded as a non-profit, open-source shield against Google’s AI monopoly, but now “the tail is wagging the dog” as they chase profits instead of protecting humanity
Driven by his deep concern for our future, Elon testified that after recruiting Ilya Sutskever from Google to help start OpenAI, Larry Page completely stopped speaking to him. In one conversation, Larry said it would be “fine” if AI wiped out humanity, as long as the machines survived, and called Elon a “speciest” for being pro-human
Elon also shared that he personally warned President Obama about the dangers of AI years ago, but the warning wasn’t taken seriously enough. “Here we are in 2026… AI is scary smart,” he said. “It could kill us all. We don’t want a Terminator outcome. We want a Star Trek outcome”
He made it crystal clear: putting AGI in the hands of untrustworthy people is an existential risk to civilization
That’s why he built SpaceX, Neuralink, and xAI - all part of one unified mission to protect humanity’s future and ensure AI serves us, not destroys us
