🚨 DAVID SACKS: “I very much agree with the Pope that the biggest risk of AI is the centralization of power and then its misuse against us, in some Orwellian way. I think it's government that's going to do that.”

@Jason @chamath @DavidSacks interesting argument but I have to agree with SaaStr here. Performance Reviews?
Jason ✨👾SaaStr.Ai✨ Lemkin@jasonlk
For those blaming “overhiring” in 2021 for their layoffs in 2026: DO YOU KNOW HOW TO DO PERFORMANCE REVIEWS? YOU HAD 5 YEARS

Low growth. Stag. High Inflation.
Say it with me folks STAGFLATION .
The Kobeissi Letter@KobeissiLetter
US inflation is red hot. 1. CPI Inflation: 3.8%, highest since May 2023 2. PCE Inflation: 3.8%, highest since May 2023 3. PPI Inflation: 6.0%, highest since March 2023 4. Services Inflation: 3.4%, highest since Sept 2025 5. Shelter Inflation: 3.3%, highest since Sept 2025 6. Energy Inflation: 17.9%, highest since Sept 2022 7. Gasoline Inflation: 28.4%, highest since June 2022 Inflation is reaccelerating across nearly every major category of the US economy. Are you positioned accordingly?

Fox Business: "1st quarter GDP coming in with a read of 1.6%. So this is a revision down. The first read was 2%, now we're coming in with a second read of 1.6%, and that is actually below the range."

No wonder our AI Czar Sacks couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Chamath and Jason do you think we could stop glazing Trump and Elon long enough to talk about this?

This is one of the most moronic decisions in recent years.
Focus on your core.
Shopify still uses Stripe. Enough said.
Excited for Kirkland to join Legora when they fail with this.

NBA star Kyle Kuzma reveals his massive bet on Spencer Pratt to be the next mayor of Los Angeles.
The former Lakers champion revealed he placed a $36,000 bet on the longtime reality TV star to win the Los Angeles mayoral race — a wager that could result in a whopping payout of more than $130,000.
Kuzma defended his support on social media, saying “LA has been cooked since Covid,” as Pratt continues to build momentum with outsider-style attacks on crime, homelessness and city leadership.

@HarryStebbings Not the first, nor the last! But we all know what matters most. “When cash out?”

@blokeinwa At 1.5BN revenues you would be wrong. Sorry! 🤣

I just interviewed a CEO who said three things that blew my mind:
1. We replaced our $600K Salesforce contract with a vibe-coded CRM, built within 3 weeks.
2. We will get rid of 80% of the SaaS we use internally.
3. If Anthropic doubled pricing, we would not change usage in any way.

Why are people so mean online? Harry is such a nice guy.

It’s stupidity and fraud all the way down with Trump. The only difference now is the real grifters have figured out how to “use” him for their own ends.
Ben Meiselas@meiselasb
You are seeing in real time why Trump companies went bankrupt so many times. Set aside your politics. This guy is incapable of making a deal or meaningful decision and it follows the same cycle. Big flashy announcement (Epic Fury). Adversity hits (Hormuz closed). Defraud stakeholders (promise two week solution). Freeze up (endless two week cycle loop). Compound the problem (resource depletion). Final chance to save face rejected (what you’re seeing now). Bankruptcy strikes and blame others during chaos. Rinse repeat.

Gavin Baker is one of the best tech investors alive and he explains why the AI cycle might actually avoid a bubble.
Every major technology in history ended in a bubble. Railroads, canals, the internet and even the PC. Every single one.
The pattern is always the same:
1. Investors get excited about a genuine breakthrough
2. Diversity of opinion breaks down
3. Everyone converges on the same thesis
4. Valuations disconnect from reality and then it collapses.
But Baker thinks AI is different this time and that's because of a physical constraint that no past technology ever had:
Watts and wafers.
TSMC is run by what he calls "flinty old men and women" who view themselves as the guardians of the most important institution in Taiwan. Jensen Huang flies to Taipei every three months and pushes them to double or triple capacity. They expand about 5%.
Here's Baker's math:
If TSMC actually gave Jensen what he wanted, Nvidia could probably sell $1.5 to $2 trillion worth of chips next year. He really believes that. The demand is there.
But a boom that size would almost certainly end in a bust. And a bust is catastrophic for TSMC. So TSMC's conservatism isn't a bottleneck. It's a release valve. A real-world physical constraint that enforces discipline on the whole cycle and prevents the kind of overbuilding that turned the internet boom into the dot-com crash.
Baker believes TSMC is the key reason why we won't have an AI bubble.

1. Promise to release autopsy
2. Put incompetent friend in charge
3. Incompetent friend produces incoherent product
4. Announce you're not releasing the autopsy
5. Lie about why
6. Gaslight people who ask, saying they're the problem
7. Face internal revolt
8. Release autopsy

“Skin In The Game.” Come back to X they said. There’s no such thing as AI swarm bots pushing alt narratives they said. C’mon Elon, you’re better than this.

this is a simple, elegant and very effective idea. take the taxes of the bottom 50% to zero.

The admin of Dream Market, once one of the largest darknet drug markets, managed to lay low and avoid capture for 7 years after the site was shut down by law enforcement.
His mistake was using BTC from Dream Market's wallet to buy gold bars through merchants that used BitPay to process payments and having the gold shipped to his home address. 🤦♂️

🇺🇸Trump: "One thing Xi Jinping agreed that he's ordering 200 jets. Boeing wanted 150, and he got 200."
Fact check: Boeing shares dropped 4% after Trump announced China would buy 200 jets well below the 500 plane deal expected before the meeting.
This man lies at every step 😭

@tylerwillis @steipete Oh this receipt is gonna be so good to claim. Not sure how so many draw this conclusion based on what has transpired so far?
English
@steipete I think a lot of people don't get that this will become accessible as the cost of intelligence continues to fall.
Only a few organizations can do this today, but the frontier will move and this style of automation will be commonly available to most in a few years.

People freaking out over my AI spend. What nobody sees: Part of what excites me so much about working on OpenClaw is that I'm trying to answer the question:
How would we build software in the future if tokens don't matter?
We constant run ~100 codex in the cloud, reviewing every PR, every issue. If a fix on main lands, @clawsweeper will eventually find that 6 month old issue and close it with an exact reference.
We run codex on every commit to review for security issues (as it's far too easy to miss).
We run codex to de-duplicate issues and find clusters and send reports for the most pressing issues.
We have agents that can recreate complex setups, spin up ephemeral crabbox.sh machines, log into e.g. Telegram, make a video and post before/after fix on the PR.
There's codex that watch new issues and - if it fits our documented vision well, automatically create a PR of it. (that then another codex reviews)
We have codex running that scans comments for spam and blocks people.
We have codex instances running that verify performance benchmarks and report regressions into Discord.
We have agents that listen on our meetings and proactively start work, e.g. create PRs when we discuss new features while we discuss them.
We build clawpatch.ai to split all our projects into functional units to review and find bugs and regresssions.
We do the same split for security with Vercel's deepsec and Codex Security to find regressions and vulnerabilities.
All that automation allows us to run this project extremely lean.
