We taught two F.03 robots to clean a room and make a bed in under 2 minutes - fully autonomous.

The single largest form of theft in America is wage theft. $50 billion a year are stolen from American workers. If a billionaire amasses their wealth by underpaying their full-time workers so severely that they must rely on food assistance and government programs to survive, then no, that wealth was not earned by one individual - it was a wealth transfer subsidized by underpaid American workers and the public who get stuck with the bill for large corporations free-riding off our systems. The point is less about individual morality. It’s more about how our current economic reality of shattering inequality rewards screwing over workers and exploiting essential systems at scale. We’re talking monopoly power. Rent-seeking. Wage theft. Profiteering. Stock buybacks. Destabilizing housing markets. Companies using SNAP/EBT to underwrite their wages. Massive government subsidies or contracts to corporations following lobbying and dark money in politics with little to no oversight or accountability. Some people get enraged that I draw attention to this. That’s on them. Let them call me shrill, dumb, inexperienced, girly, uneducated - these folks will say anything to distract from or undercut the truth that working people are getting screwed, and giving people a fair shake means we must have a grown conversation about reigning in abuse of power.

Welcome to the scientific revolution. 100s of robots. Zero coffee breaks. America’s largest autonomous lab, open today.

Yesterday in the PauseAI discord the CEO (lol what?) posted "WARNING SHOT PROTOCOL - FIRST EVER ACTIVATION"

California is again leading the charge against large-scale identity theft and hospice fraud. Today, we're taking decisive action against 14 providers who tried using stolen identities to bill Medi-Cal for nonexistent hospice services.

SpaceX going public in June would be the single largest venture outcome in startup history. It may create 10k+ liquid millionaires. These people are scientists, engineers and motivated by big ideas. This is an incredible outcome for society that will have positive ripple effects into the future.

It’s actually insane what SpaceX is doing to the space industry right now In 1981, it cost ~$65,000 to put 1 kg into orbit For 50 years, the industry accepted this as the standard. Reusable rockets were "impossible" Then one company - led by a man obsessed with getting humanity to Mars, decided that $65,000/kg was unacceptable Right now, Elon and the SpaceX team are building Starship to hit $10–$20/kg That is a massive ~4,000x price collapse It’s actually wild that we get to watch this happen in real time

About once a week a waymo gets stuck in this alley for no reason. Sometimes just sits there for half an hour, sometimes backs all the way back down the alley. Been happening for over a year
