X is becoming unusable to get reliable information... The monetization is creating a powerful incentive to post "*breaking* FAKE news" ... this is all while everyone is asking "@ Grok is this real?" because no one can confirm anything. Public Townhall is slowly becoming Misinformation Central.

The $META narrative is once again that Zuckerberg sucks at capital allocation and is spending too much + roiled in public scandal headlines. Which means it’s a long. Hopefully we can skip the 70% drawdown this time.
Steve Jurvetson@FutureJurvetson

Subtext: how Zuck’s obsession with VR lost him AI leadership and “the greatest deal Google ever made.” “if Facebook didn’t buy DeepMind, they would end up in the arms of Google. Hassabis came out to the West Coast to have lunch with Larry Page, still the strongest suitor. Zuckerberg got wind of his visit and invited him to dinner. Arriving at Zuckerberg’s Palo Alto home, Hassabis administered a subtle test on him. The two men discussed the potential of AI, and Zuckerberg expressed appropriate excitement. But then, as the dinner continued, Hassabis brought up other hot technologies: virtual reality, augmented reality, 3-D printing. Zuckerberg sounded equally excited about all of them. ‘That told me what I needed to know,’ Hassabis said. ‘Facebook offered more money, but I wanted somebody who really understood why AI would be bigger than all these other things.’ After the dinner, Hassabis got back to Larry Page. ‘Let’s go further,’ he told him.” — book excerpt from today’s WSJ: wsj.com/tech/ai/deepmi… Zuck’s misplaced devotion to VR and the metaverse hurt the company much more than the $80 billion of wasted spend. It’s the reputational hit. @DemisHassabis divined it in his final test, and Zuck didn’t even know that he blew the opportunity. Eight years later, he renamed the company Meta, doubling down on what anyone with tech savvy knew was DOA. Then, in a 2025 attempt to play catchup, Zuck spent $14 billion on a data labelling company with a salesy leader and upended his AI team. Once again, anyone with tech savvy rolled their eyes on the acquisition and management changes, further evidence that the tech leadership at Meta was seriously lacking. TLDR; beware the metaverse. It is a dystopian vision at best, and luckily for humanity, headsets are still nowhere near readiness for mass adoption.

@chatgpt21 Impossible. The test didn’t give grok any points for saying Charlie Kirk was a good person?

Just got asked to go on a date by a stranger and he threw out a couple of suggestions, one of them being a 1v1 basketball game. Like I'm going to decline, but I completely respect it. I wonder how often this has worked for him? How many girls has he taken to the paint, so to speak

@LttleGel If it works for you, great but a lot of people would prefer to not have part of their eye sliced off and blasted with lasers. There are ways to heal the eyesight through diet and lifestyle that people should be encouraged to try first.

So the woman who created Lasik eye surgery still wears glasses herself. She won a noble price for this procedure but still refuses to have it herself. It’s almost like she knows something that we don’t?

Elon, Andreesen, Sacks, Ackman, Chamath, Vivek, on and on, I remember when for all these guys it was critical to elect Trump because our national debt was a crisis and existential threat to the future of America only he would tackle. Don’t hear so much about that anymore.

Nobody understands how much of a disaster this Rivian <> Uber deal is Rivian lost $3.6 billion last year on 42k deliveries. That's $86,000 of value destruction PER VEHICLE that left their factory. Their solution? Partner with Uber to turn a $58K camping SUV into a robotaxi... to compete with Tesla's Cybercab... YIKES Every 12-18 months, this company finds a new partner to write a check: - Amazon: $1.3B equity + 100K van order - VW: $5.8B joint venture - US DOE: $6.6B loan - Uber: $1.25B robotaxi deal (today) The moment they announced the Uber deal, they admitted they're pushing back profitability AGAIN to fund an autonomy program that can't even handle stoplights. Tesla's Cybercab is purpose built at $25,000 with no steering wheel. The cost per mile math isn't even close. The Uber deal is to deploy 50,000 robotaxis by 2031. Slight problem: The car doesn't exist yet. The factory doesn't exist yet. The autonomy software doesn't exist. Manufacturing is HARD. good luck have fun

If I were not already building Extropic, I would have 100% joined @xai The lab with the most e/acc and Kardashev-pilled mission of all Definitely a huge opportunity for great talent to rise to the occasion here
Elon Musk@elonmusk

Many talented people over the past few years were declined an offer or even an interview @xAI. My apologies. @BarisAkis and I are going through the company interview history and reaching back out to promising candidates.
