The US spent billions blocking ai chip exports to China. But here's the thing... every restriction basically advertised which tech actually matters. So China just... built it themselves. And they're moving faster than anyone expected. Here's what happened.

@SartorialShootr @mageeclegg The Sartorial Shooter is on a new mission… hunting down Asunción influencers one by one. haha

@mageeclegg Asuncion is even worse than chicago. And that’s saying something

$250K household income 🇵🇾 Asunción > 🇺🇸 Chicago After taxes: 🇵🇾 Keep $250K (foreign sourced) 🇺🇸 $155–170K after federal + state Housing: 🇵🇾 $5K/month = modern house, pool, security, real space 🇺🇸 $5K/month = decent house, tight layout, high property taxes Schools (2 kids): 🇵🇾 Elite private schools 🇺🇸 Public if don’t want to break the bank Lifestyle: 🇵🇾 Full-time nanny + housekeeper + cook + driver 🇺🇸 You are the nanny + Uber driver + cook + cleaning crew Dinner: 🇵🇾 $40–60 steak dinner + 10% tip 🇺🇸 $200+ steak dinner + 25% tip Weekends: 🇵🇾 Rio / Mendoza / Patagonia 🇺🇸 Enjoy the Midwest 👌 Same income. Different life. Choose wisely.

ChatGPT needs "delete this prompt/output" (without nuking the whole chat). Huge QoL fix. @OpenAI

@marclou @grok what would be your top 3 locations around the world ticking all these boxes?

Why I'm leaving Bali after 6 years: - Far from everything - Not cheap anymore - Air is polluted - Food chain is polluted - Ocean is polluted - Not walkable - Too hot all year - Wife gets catcalled often I want mild weather, walkable areas, organic shops, clean air, tax-friendly, and young vibes. It's a utopia, of course, but I'll choose the place that ticks the most boxes.

just woke up and The Outdoor Boys posted a new video been 5 months and i didn't realize how much i missed this until i saw the notification saturdays feel right again idk how to explain it

hear me out @OpenAI Atlas WILL introduce ads for free users calling it now... it's inevitable Google makes $371B from ads. you think OpenAI's just gonna watch? they built the distribution. now they're coming for the revenue. ads are coming. mark my words.

@altryne @grok okay that’s wild, can’t wait to play around with it

@SercanCap @grok and it's good! better than Reka and Gemini!

Either: 1) none of my audience cares about chatGPT being able to watch videos! 2) they all are aware of this 3) X does not show this to anyone as @grok algo doesn't really work

AI doesn’t fix stupidity. It scales it. If the problem’s dumb, your AI just makes it bigger. Automate wrong, scale wrong. No clarity, no KPI, no outcome. AI won’t save bad thinking. It just expose it at scale.

@DanielPriestley Love this, Daniel. Finally someone reminding people it’s okay to build for freedom, not just for a bigger valuation.

Some big news... I've been working on this for most of 2025 and I'm really excited to finally share it with you all. My next book, The Lifestyle Business Playbook, comes out in just over a month, and is available to pre-order now! If you're trying build a business that emphasises fun, freedom, and flexibility, and that actually serves your life (not the other way around) then this is for you. This one has been a lot of work but I think you're really going to love it. Get it here: linktr.ee/LifestyleBusin…

@altryne @descript And I was just thinking I might download the app. Guess I’ll stick with the web lol.

@SercanCap @descript Yess but I think the web is a bit more performant actually.

ugh @descript has gotten so awful lately, and I'm so locked in to it after 3 years of almost daily use, that I'm stuck Any one else using a word editing podcast software to recommend? Transcriptions have gotten so much worse despite constant nagging and comments and dictionaries The UI is so LAGGY on my M3 Pro that there's no excuse for it in 2025 Unintuative things break, like the text window scrolling all the way to the start after recording I get that they are all in on AI features but who will use those AI features when the main functionality is broken? To be clear I do love the AI features (not the chat, it's godawful and never works) Chapters, Edit for Clarity, YT description, all mostly work and do save me hours! But UGH I wanna pull my eyes out every time I edit @thursdai_pod now because it's so slow and buggy. Like cmon, what transcription service in the world doesn't know OpenAI and transcribes it to "Open the eye" almost every time? 😅

We've killed 40% of our pilots in week two. Saved clients from wasting another $150K scaling broken agents. The ones that survive? ROI in weeks. What's your shortest validation cycle? DM me TEST - I'll tell you if yours would pass.

Day 14: Decide. Did it save time? Did users trust it? Did it work? → Kill it, fix it, or scale it. No 6-month builds. No "let's add features." No sunk cost fallacy

Most AI projects fail because you spent 6 months building before getting real feedback. We don't do that. We run 14-day ROI tests instead. Here's how: 🧵

@DanielPriestley Love this, Daniel. Makes me wonder if future founders will build audience first or product first when launches are that fast?

The future of entrepreneurship is about creating businesses like YouTube creators produce content. Imagine having a small team launching multiple projects weekly, all within a few weeks. In an AI-enabled world, businesses could be launched and exited in a month. Don’t get left behind: linktw.in/shquyn

@madietlx @itsolelehmann TikTok’s actually great for educational stuff once it figures you out. Takes a couple days, but then it keeps serving you topics you didn’t even know you were into. Way better than IG just spamming whatever you paused on for a sec.

there’s way more high quality educational stuff on TikTok than on X
