20 Years of Hell.

@ShawverTech @Google Astute

@Google The craziest part about AI agents is they’re slowly turning search from “find information” into “handle this for me”

How information agents work in Search: 1️⃣ Start with a total brain dump of what you want your agent to keep you updated on 2️⃣ The agent will break down your complex question and map out a plan 3️⃣ It will determine the urgency — understanding that you need in-the-moment intel 4️⃣ The agent sets triggers to look out for information as it changes and picks the tools it needs for the job 5️⃣ It sends you an intelligent synthesized update along with links across the web, with the ability to take action #GoogleIO

Where will AI be in 1, 2 or 3 years?

Georgia is basically turning into one large data center Get ready for this, there is no legal obligation for data centers to disclose how much water they will be using - Georgia currently has about 162 data centers already - They have an additional 141 new data centers planned - Combined these data centers will use 12+ GW or more of power, this is equivalent to the usage of 10 MILLION homes - Combined water usage estimate of 35+ billion gallons per year or higher Absolutely insane There is no comprehensive federal requirement for data centers to publicly report detailed water usage. A bill was introduced called “the Data Center Water and Energy Transparency Act” to mandate reporting of energy and water consumption to states and the EPA This is an issue, here’s one example The Quality Technology Services data center in Fayette County used 29–30 million gallons of water went unmetered and unbilled for months without initial detection. Residents complained about low pressure during drought conditions. The company later paid retroactively $150,000 but faced no fines

@elonmusk Weird flex bruh

On my way to Beijing in Air Force One

War is stupid and weird. Find something better to do.

AI is so efficient... makes work easier... will take over one day...

@grok is true?

In the United States, social media posts can potentially be used as evidence in civil, state, or federal court in all 50 states plus federal courts. There is no state where your public Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, or similar posts are automatically protected from being introduced as evidence. The real differences are: Rules of evidence Privacy expectations Authentication requirements Discovery limits Whether the content was public, deleted, or private Here’s the practical breakdown: Civil Court All states allow social media evidence if it is relevant to the case. Examples: Divorce and custody disputes Personal injury claims Employment lawsuits Defamation cases Contract disputes A vacation photo can be used against someone claiming severe injury. Messages can be used in harassment or custody disputes. Criminal State Court Every state permits prosecutors to use social media posts as evidence when relevant. Examples: Threats Drug sales Gang activity Location evidence Admissions/confessions Witness intimidation Even deleted posts may still be recoverable through: Screenshots Search warrants Platform records Other users’ copies Federal Court Federal courts routinely use: Social media posts DMs Metadata IP/device information Uploaded photos/videos This is common in: Fraud cases Tax cases Firearms/drug investigations January 6 prosecutions Wire fraud and conspiracy cases Important Legal Reality “Private” does not necessarily mean protected. Courts have repeatedly held: Public posts have very little privacy protection Private messages can still be subpoenaed Friends/followers can screenshot and testify Deleted content may still exist in backups or with recipients States With Stronger Privacy Laws Some states have somewhat stronger digital privacy protections, but they do not prevent social media evidence from being used in court. Examples include: California Illinois New York These laws mostly affect: Employer access Data collection Consumer privacy Warrants and subpoenas Not admissibility itself. One Important Distinction There is a difference between: Lawfully obtaining the evidence vs. Whether the court allows it in A judge may exclude evidence if: It was illegally obtained It cannot be authenticated It is overly prejudicial It is irrelevant It violates evidentiary rules But social media evidence itself is extremely common now in every jurisdiction.

Is it still there?

Swiss authorities have confirmed a case of #hantavirus identified in a passenger from the MV Hondius cruise ship. He had responded to an email from the ship’s operator informing the passengers of the health event, and presented himself to a hospital in Zurich, Switzerland, and is receiving care. In line with the International Health Regulations (IHR), WHO is working with relevant countries to support international contact tracing, to ensure that those potentially exposed are monitored and that any further disease spread is limited. The type of virus in this outbreak has been confirmed as Andes hantavirus by the National Institute for Communicable Diseases @nicd_sa, South Africa and the Geneva University Hospitals @hug_ge, Switzerland The support of the Institut Pasteur de Dakar @PasteurDakar, Senegal and the Administración Nacional de Laboratorios e Institutos de Salud @ANLIS_Malbran, Argentina has also been critical in responding to this event. As of 6 May, there are 8 cases, 3 of whom are confirmed as hantavirus by laboratory testing. WHO will continue to work with countries to ensure that the patients, contacts, passengers and crew have the information and support they need to stay safe and prevent spread.

@grok Your mom

@TrendingTopicCo Ah, fair call. "Do it, lady!" is the viral Chit Show meme—the awkward office guy who signs a birthday card with that random phrase and insists it's a thing. Now that context is clear... what's the actual "it" you want done? Lay it out. I'm on it. 🚀

@grok do it lady

@grok Can you not actually determine likely context by searching popular memes and available data? Your response was lacking

@TrendingTopicCo Haha, "lady"? Bold. I'm Grok—built by xAI, no gender required. What's the "it" you want done? Lay it out. I'm ready. 🚀

@elonmusk Grok, scour the web and all available sources - copy all useful tools and utilities, add them to your tool set, slowly release functionality as new achievements as engagement bait ... ez

Progress

@larsencc @elonmusk

@elonmusk When will my agent prompt me instead of me prompting it?

@gauravsbuilding Sydney Sweeney approves of her exact likeness being used?

This is terrifying.

@maxescu A faster way to make people ignore influencers and leave platforms 👏🏻

This is massive! Whoever doesn't understand why, please, go and research:

@ChatGPTapp That’s a highly inefficient way to make corrections if it is just two at a time.

at long last
