‘The thing was always there, implicit in the gift, waiting for someone with eyes to surface it.’ This is something ranchers, farmers, doctors, nurses, cooks, chefs, truckers, plumbers — and countless other in-the-field everyday people — have long experienced and relied on to keep themselves, their loved ones, and others safe, nourished, and thriving. As the human world emerges from the ‘woke’ state it’s been pushed into and begins to spread its new wings, fresh connections form and new physical realities emerge. @ZoharAtkins piece is a brilliant example of how metaphysical connections shape and reshape physical outcomes. Excellent work. He applies Jevons Paradox to AI democratizing Torah study — shifting the real bottleneck from access to chiddush(novel insight). Super insightful. Jevons Paradox has long helped debt-burdened societies grow into something more vibrant and robust — not just mechanically “sustainable” at high speeds to feed elite extraction addiction(s). As @ZoharAtkins points out: “Each loosened constraint revealed the next.” “New supply generated demand that had not previously existed because it had not been imaginable.” “The thing Akiva sees was always there, implicit in the gift, waiting for someone with eyes to surface it.” AI is not here to trap us in fear (despite what some #LeadWithLeverage folks want you to believe while they keep extracting value). Instead, #LeadWithContext thinkers like @ZoharAtkins see AI for what it is: another instrument presented to us in the garden. This time, let’s not ‘eat the input.’ #LetTheParadoxPlayOut • agnetic Soils-as-Health Round Table™ Disclaimer: All text is written by me and edited/translated with the assistance of AI (Grok by xAI).

@Benioff on the next AI wave: multi-sensory models: “I’m a multi-sensory model in a biological computer.” Eyes, ears, touch, real-world signals — not just tokens and text. This is spot on, and it’s why we’re not buying the brainwashed narrative that AI always has to be expensive at every layer (operational, strategic, foundational) The entire AI model is in flux. We recognize spending real money on tokens while rapidly squeezing out waste, abuse, and fraud through legitimate horse-trading and trader logic earned in the real world. Achieving what many think cannot happen One Move with Many Benefits™. [e.g. Concurrently capturing environmental, economic, social value from the old Industrial Age silos as their moats dry up and their castles fall and using that to build a more robust, viable and longer lasting alternative. (aka composting the old to nourish the new.) As a newly minted Minnesotan, and long-time Northerner who’s spent years around soil, livestock, and the actual biology of the land, this hits home. The new data these multi-sensory models will need? It’s not sitting in clean server logs. It’s dense, messy, first-principles Nature data — instrumented plots, microbial signals, field variability, the full sensory stack from dirt to dinner table. Treating ag + food + healthcare as one interconnected system of systems? You don’t buy an off-the-shelf “soil health app.” You build the custom workflows on a solid horizontal foundation so the data actually flows where it needs to — from field microbes to patient outcomes. [see @Benioff’s updates related to what one can do with Salesforce and you’ll catch on…] Agnetic’s native approach — training directly on that rich, real-world Nature data — is built for exactly this puck: Multi-sensory intelligence grounded in the biology that actually runs the planet. Same episode, same thread as the horizontal shift and the Kodak pivot. The crew keeps surfacing the real arbitrage windows. Grateful again to @Benioff and the whole All-In squad for these conversations. This is the kind of thinking that moves systems-level work forward. #SoilsAsHealth #MultiSensoryAI #BuildDontBuy

@chamath dropping truth again on the same episode: “There’s enough ingredients here where somebody is going to cook something up… Apple is incredible, but that’s the product of 40 years of meticulous process optimization. What do you do if the form factor is totally different… How do you pivot that organization?” ref: ref: youtube.com/v/jJRAvZNGUvI This is exactly the Apple Kodak moment I’ve been writing about. The same hyper-optimized machine that prints cash in the old paradigm suddenly faces a completely different game — new form factors, new system requirements, new definitions of value. That disruption isn’t just coming for Big Tech. It’s a leading indicator for ranching/meatpacking, dairy, commodity crops, and every downstream player in the planet-and-people health stack. Those industries have spent decades (centuries) perfecting their own process optimization. When the “form factor” shifts to regenerative, interconnected, outcome-based systems… the pivot is brutal if you’re not ready. At Soils as Health™ we’re betting on the cooks who see the new ingredients and build the horizontal platform to connect soil → food → human health, instead of defending the old vertical silos. Same All-In energy as the horizontal vs vertical SaaS call. The arbitrage window is open. Grateful for the crew calling these shifts in real time. This is how big, messy, meaningful work gets surfaced. #SoilsAsHealth #SystemsThinking

Just wrapped the latest All-In and damn, that Benioff convo hit different. 🔥 ref: youtube.com/v/jJRAvZNGUvI @jason especially — your point on dropping the vertical SaaS cruft and doubling down on horizontal platforms (Salesforce at O’Holo) is exactly the shift we’re riding at Soils as Health™ — not only within a firm, but between industries and at a broader systems level. Treating ag + food + healthcare as one interconnected system of systems? You don’t buy an off-the-shelf “soil health app.” You build the custom workflows on a solid horizontal foundation so the data actually flows where it needs to — from field microbes to patient outcomes. That founder-led instinct + horizontal arbitrage call? Spot on. The future belongs to the ones who can see the whole board instead of bolting on another silo. Big thanks to the whole crew (@jason, Chamath, Sacks, Friedberg) and @Benioff for the good-natured ribbing and real horse-trading. This is how roundtables turn into real work at scale. The soil-food-health loop is the ultimate connected system. Conversations like this are what help us actually ship it. Appreciate you all. More soon. #SoilsAsHealth #BuildDontBuy

Looks llike @ElonMusk fully implementing the Art of War 101: He with the fastest OODA Loop Wins. A classic “trader’s logic” understanding of the relationship between time, space and resources[1]. ∞ “Sometimes he wouldn't let you buy a part for $2,000 because he expected you to find it cheaper or invent something cheaper. Other times, he wouldn't flinch at renting a plane for $90,000 to get something to Kwaj because it saved an entire workday, so it was worth it.” and more… [1]: trader’s logic “trader's logic is about building an edge through discipline and market understanding, then executing without letting your brain's survival instincts (fight-or-flight) sabotage you. “ more here: x.com/i/grok?convers… h/t @pmarca = Speed Wins ref: post: x.com/a16z/status/20… @davidsenra = nice clip. thank you for letting me layer into your riff: x.com/i/grok?convers… #TraderLogicWins • from the agnetic Soils-as-Health Round Table™

How @elonmusk thinks about the relationship between time and money: "Elon would always be at work on Sunday, and we had some chats where he laid out his philosophy. He would say that everything we did was a function of our burn rate and that we were burning through a hundred thousand dollars per day. It was this very entrepreneurial, Silicon Valley way of thinking that none of the aerospace engineers in Los Angeles were dialed into. Sometimes he wouldn't let you buy a part for $2,000 because he expected you to find it cheaper or invent something cheaper. Other times, he wouldn't flinch at renting a plane for $90,000 to get something to Kwaj because it saved an entire workday, so it was worth it. He would place this urgency that he expected the revenue in ten years to be ten million dollars a day and that every day we were slower to achieve our goals was a day of missing out on that money."

The @theallinpod crew and beasties* deliver yet again. Thanks guys! Ref: youtube.com/watch?v=10MdOv… The #TraderLogic laid out by @chamath is spot on: ∞ 1. “People know how to draw more blood from the stone, how to target better ads. That does nothing for society anymore.” ∞ 2. “Maybe this is the best way for them to get this message, which is to whack their valuation.” ∞ 3. “The big message that I take away from this, which the markets and retail are telling you is, you guys have stopped innovating, there's a lot of incrementalism, and we as a society aren't benefiting broadly, the way that you told us we would be.” Join us and others growing AI-native, large-scale alternatives instead of just propping up legacy industrial systems. How? By, among other things, directly interfacing with Nature-based data. h/t @r0ck3t23 led us off with this: x.com/agnetic1/statu… *h/t @elonmusk @chamath @Jason @DavidSacks @friedberg), @frankdina #RibWellTradeWisely#TraderLogicWins • from the agnetic Soils-as-Health Round Table™

Larry Ellison just told you where the real AI war is being fought. Every major AI model trains on the same public data. Same internet. Same scraped pages. Same recycled text. ChatGPT. Claude. Grok. Llama. They all learned from the same pile. Public data isn’t a competitive edge anymore. It’s the floor. The real separation is private data. Medical records. Financial models. Defense infrastructure. Proprietary research locked behind firewalls for decades. That’s where the highest-value information on Earth lives. And most of it already sits inside Oracle databases. Not Google’s servers. Not Microsoft’s cloud. Not Amazon’s. Oracle’s. Ellison didn’t try to build another AI model. He rebuilt the database so AI could reason directly on private data. Not train on it. Reason on it. Training means your data gets absorbed into the model. It leaves your hands. Reasoning means AI thinks with your data. Returns the insight. The data never moves. That’s not an upgrade. That’s the architecture enterprise AI actually needs. Ellison called these systems “remarkable electronic brains.” He wasn’t reaching for a metaphor. He was being literal. We built synthetic cognition. Not faster software. Not better algorithms. A tool that reasons. And he said what almost no one in tech will say out loud. It won’t replace us. It’ll make us something we’ve never been. Better scientists. Better surgeons. Better engineers. Better teachers. Every tool humanity ever built followed one pattern. It made the person holding it more powerful than the person without it. Fire. The printing press. Electricity. The internet. AI follows the same arc. With one difference. This tool thinks with you. The people who figure that out first won’t just have an advantage. They’ll solve problems the rest of the world didn’t know were solvable. We didn’t build our replacement. We built our upgrade. And history won’t remember who feared it. It’ll remember who used it.

I was today years old when I discovered @grok’s ability to conduct min-DOGE on any individual/institution here in x.com space. Hoover over a name to get popup. At the bottom of that popup window click on profile summary. And watch what amounts to be a in-real-time environmental, economic and social DOGE report be generated right before your very eyes. Something tells me those trying to leverage more financial leverage into farming—by way of hopping from one contrived placeholder to another (ref: conventional/commodity to organic to regenerative farming/milking/ranching and more…) will have a hard time keeping up with @ElonMusk, the @grok team and others playing to where the hockey-puck is headed: Using X.com t grow AI-native, large-scale alternatives instead of just propping up legacy industrial systems. #RibWellTradeWisely • from the agnetic Soils-as-Health Round Table™

6/ Grateful for the players demonstrating this in real time: @elonmusk, @AnthropicAI, @darioamodei , @theallinpod crew and beasties (@chamath @Jason @DavidSacks @friedberg), @frankdia, @RobertKennedyJr , @SecRollins , @TheJusticeDept @JusticeATR Your work is shaping how this hybrid transition unfolds—especially in critical sectors like agriculture & food. The future rewards those who can both rib well and trade wisely. #RibWellTradeWisely • from the agnetic Soils-as-Health Round Table™

5/ This same spirit can help communities/societies/regions/nations, etc. dependent on a concentrated sources of employment, revenue, etc. break through natural resistance to change in healthy ways. When the economic and technological parameters shift, transitions go smoother and faster when approached with this blend of wit, realism, and mutual self-interest.

1/ Just watched the latest All-In Podcast. The first 6 min. is a perfect example of high-signal camaraderie: sharp but good-natured ribbing + legitimate horse-trading. The banter flows straight into Elon making Colossus capacity available to Anthropic. Smart capital allocation in action.

WI Farm Bureau@WIFarmBureau·
Wisconsin Farm Bureau recently met with leaders from the National Economic Council to discuss key issues facing dairy farmers. The conversation covered: 🔘 The future of Federal Milk Marketing Orders and fairness for Wisconsin producers 🔘 Ongoing labor challenges and the need for a workable visa solution—including a potential dairy-specific program 🔘 Expanding domestic and international dairy markets 🔘 Rising transportation costs impacting farm profitability WFBF members brought real-world insight from Wisconsin farms and, importantly, offered solutions—not just challenges. We look forward to continuing the conversation and advocating for policies that support dairy farmers and rural communities.

Adjacent loop-ins… [1]: Cash Trap ref: x.com/agnetic1/statu… [1a]: “The Iron Rice Bowl Pattern™ – One Mental Model That Helps Fix Many Different Systems” ref: x.com/agnetic1/statu… #CashTrap#IronRiceBowlPattern • from the agnetic Soils-as-Health Round Table™

agnetic (Russell Curry)@agnetic1

Thread 1/6 – The Master Intro 📷 The Iron Rice Bowl Pattern™ – One Mental Model That Helps Fix Many Different Systems We often treat problems in geopolitics, government, education, capital markets, and the nonprofit world as completely separate. But they share a similar invisible pattern. The old Chinese idea of the “iron rice bowl” describes any protected structure that gives insiders lifetime guarantees, benefits, and almost zero accountability for results. Resources get trapped, adaptation slows, and eventual collapse becomes more painful[1]. In the early 1990s, I worked in a business development role for a large multinational American company that had not previously sold product directly into China. My responsibility was originating business and helping establish trading relationships, new logistic(s) flows, infrastructure and capabilities there — right at the time when China started breaking millions of these iron rice bowls. The short-term disruption was real and painful for many — yet it helped unlock far greater long-term prosperity and opportunity. The same pattern is playing out today in four seemingly unrelated settings.

@allenf32 and @sacha_meyers Congrats on this article and its many prescient insights. Economics is not an easily approachable subject. You have done a fine job of making this complex situation understandable. With the shift(s) in the role(s) of the Federal Reserve/central bank(s) instigated by the shift from the Imperial Great Game and onto the American Production Economy alternative, your ‘good deflation’ vs ‘bad inflation’, and how entrepreneurs play a role similar to central bankers—by way of their arbitraging/hedging of environmental, economic and social value— are two insights is well timed. And, like Nature, remains alive by managing such intertwined multidimensional risk via rhythmic and dynamic flow between concentration and back out to diffusion, while the other collapses due to its over-reliance on Keynesian inadequacies. We are now using your article’s many insights to help folks with cash trapped[1] in collapsing bad deflation system(s) move into good deflation alternatives. Your article is reducing the time it takes for folks to catch on to the phrase, “Nature waits for no one.”, and more… Out of the many insights you provide, this is s particular stand out: “There is, however, a non-coercive way of lowering the demand for money: entrepreneurship. When people exchange money for productive investments like factories, machinery, or R&D, their demand for money falls voluntarily. If entrepreneurs then reinvest profits into further growth, that effect deepens. This gives us a clear distinction. Central bankers try to lower the demand for money coercively by torching its value. Entrepreneurs lower it voluntarily by persuading people to invest in the future. The former makes everything more expensive. The latter makes everything more affordable.” “Entrepreneurship: The non-coercive, good deflation way forward.” is now a stand-alone, stand-out idiom. Thank you! We’d love to talk more. Let us know what works for you…
