Coming soon to an IP courtroom and FeltFlix near you! This is epic.

This guy is using AI video to re-imagine an adult version of Sesame Street. I can't wait until we get the actual movie... (from beyond_the_imaginairy on IG)

@Jason what was the year of our bet on this from the #TWIS News days? Producer Jacqui check those notes!

Elon Musk@elonmusk

Just started Tesla Robotaxi drives in Austin with no safety monitor in the car. Congrats to the @Tesla_AI team! If you’re interested in solving real-world AI, which is likely to lead to AGI imo, join Tesla AI. Solving real-world AI for Optimus will be 100X harder than cars.

Who has broken the story on how AI was used to rethink and design the light pipes on the #Lumus #Meta #Raybans from #CES2026 yet? Can I get that interview team? #AI unlocking #secrets like this is our #nondystopian future.

CNET's @jetscott sat with Lumus, the maker of Meta Ray-Ban Displays, to demo two prototypes that could be the future of smart glasses. #ces2026

Our #CueCat predicted the future for #barcodes long before #QR but who’s going to buy the $~5k #GE fridge that builds your shopping list?

@stevesi “How to be Legitimate” story via A16Z relived my past! I was librarian for the Osborne group, BBS & Internet made me obsolete. After flying to DC, Walt Mossberg said the CueCat: “Fails to Meet Its Promise of Being Convenient and Useful.” Now AI is that new disrupter.

Just putting this here before meltdown: Pew Research Center says: A median of 34% of adults say they are more concerned than excited about the increased use of AI, while 42% are equally concerned and excited. A median of 16% are more excited than concerned pewresearch.org/global/2025/10…

Here’s a first ad from a Sora 2 likeness of @mcuban on a fictional #sharktank with me about the #AI impression of a hypothetical #cuecat from 1997-2001 - worst of all, that’s not my voice #Sora2. #dotcom

Who’s afraid of a little dust and 50% less shade structures when we rebuild? We had this carnage removed and had a great live music piano party two hours after this video. #burningman #windstorm #duststorm #BRPL @meltonjohnartcar

@reidhoffman You’re only able believe this because you took 10k hours like a grunt as I did with Turbo Pascal and a BASIC. We have hallucination-free expertise to reflect on the good and bad decisions we have made before things mattered. I’m afraid of the kids who won’t. Hire them to learn.

@james_chater With mud burn in 2023, our camp Black Rock Piano Lounge had some of the best musical experiences with amazing talent because the city went local and stayed “in their town.” This wind hit one of our upright pianos head-on and knocked it over, so was a big burst. Tents were fine.

@ggdm Hi there, hope you're keeping safe. I work for BBC News and wanted to ask a few questions about this video. Would you be able to follow me back so I can DM you? Take care, James

This reminds me of the Samsung vs Apple wars of 2009. What I’ve found is that when teams are forced and cajoled to work together like Zuck is doing, there will be infighting and egos. Work output goes down. Unless he builds #Llama like the manhattan project with different Indy’s.

I’ve hosted sessions on #AI replacing low level #jobs like paralegals or analysts, preventing them from 10K hours needed to become an expert in a field. This story is pretty interesting on how #Claude can’t run #retail. My first job was a lemonade stand. time.com/7298088/claude…

Female attention to complex details is tried and true, Rosie the Riveter helped win the war! Oh, after four years of building our LED total within @BurningMan747 was something like 300,000 #Artnet controlled pixels over 135 feet of #747 fuselage for #burningman from 2016-2019.

Robert Scoble@Scobleizer

By the way Dave (the host) was on the team that brought a 747 to Burning Man. That is the coolest thing ever, no? He told me about having a team soldering 100,000+ lights into it. Says the women would mess up a lot less often then the men.
