@NatrianMaxwell Have you tried Perplexity’s deep research? If not, you should it’s really good (and free).

I am moving beyond my basic AI use cases (Gemini and Chat GPT) and want to level up. What tools should I start playing with that could help in my daily work life?

Thank you Governor @GregAbbott_TX for prioritizing protecting Texans and critical Texas systems from cyberattacks this session. Your continued support of cybersecurity initiatives will ensure that our state remains safe.

@intentionally I appreciate this post, yet another book to read and your vulnerability.

I have a great marriage. But we're not perfect. And one area of conflict has been around my difficulty feeling emotions. I've been reading Us, and had an epiphany. It asked the question, "who did you bring emotional issues to as a child?" Nobody. I processed all that on my own. I had a single mom until high school. I don't blame her. She did the best she could, was working hard, and probably didn't know how to connect w a boy that way. But certainly explains why I have such difficulty now. I had a second, bigger epiphany. I'm doing the exact same thing to my son. Because I don't know how to talk about my emotions, I'm doing a bad job creating space for him. Last night I talked to him about it. Explained what I've been learning. Apologized for not being there for him that way. Told him I'm going to start checking in periodically. That it's okay if there's nothing to talk about. That I won't force it. But if he wants to talk, I won't judge. He can tell me anything. I won't shame him. And I won't problem solve unless he explicitly asks for it. I'll just listen and be with him in that space. I'm sure it will be awkward. My muscles are incredibly weak in this area. I'm having to learn how to do this myself. And I wish I'd realized this earlier. But glad I'm figuring it out. (p.s. that's not my hand.)

I’m excited to announce that today I’m joining @Microsoft as CEO of Microsoft AI. I’ll be leading all consumer AI products and research, including Copilot, Bing and Edge. My friend and longtime collaborator Karén Simonyan will be Chief Scientist, and several of our amazing teammates have chosen to join us. @InflectionAI will continue on its mission under a new CEO, and look to reach more people than ever by making its API widely available to developers and businesses the world over. It’s been an amazing journey, with so much more to come. Thank you to everyone for your support. Things really are just getting started.

It looks like Gemini has advanced capabilities in responding to multimodal input.

We have reached an agreement in principle for Sam Altman to return to OpenAI as CEO with a new initial board of Bret Taylor (Chair), Larry Summers, and Adam D'Angelo. We are collaborating to figure out the details. Thank you so much for your patience through this.

Toronto became the first NHL arena to install separate penalty-box doors for each team. The move came a week after Leafs' Bob Pulford the Canadiens' Terry Harper had a fight in their shared penalty box, after an earlier fight on the ice. 11.08.63 #HFH H/T @goaleafs 📼👇

We're announcing at least 75% of state jobs will no longer require a 4-year college degree. For too long, 4-year degree requirements have stood in the way of job opportunities for highly qualified Minnesotans, especially in state government. Going forward, we’re opening doors.
