@mrjakehumphrey If you were a sandwich you’d be very thick white loaf buttered both sides, no filling. And you’d think you were the best sandwich in the shop.

It’s time men normalised honesty, vulnerability and failure not as weakness, but as the purest measure of courage, emotional exposure, and strength❤️ thetimes.com/magazines/the-…

@realBigBrainAI I've worked with several founders who have received advice from successful entrepreneurs, but it's the execution of that advice that truly sets the successful ones apart – in other words, how well they adapt Sam Altman's advice to their unique situation is what matters most.

@TheChiefNerd They happened in sequence. First humans consumed energy and WROTE EVERYTHING DOWN and then you came along. He’s like a remixer that needs a song to start his song. But ignores the source material.

🚨 SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”

@BarrakAli @NolanAnalyst Film formats can’t feel embarrassed. No one is embarrassed by this. IMAX is fine but lens lighting story sound will always beat it.

@NolanAnalyst Holding a 16mm frame next to an IMAX 70mm frame makes the scale difference instantly clear. IMAX captures so much more detail that the comparison is almost embarrassing for standard film formats.

Cops were called to an intersection where a group of around 20 teens on bikes and e-bikes were blocking the roads, doing stunts and disrupting traffic. When the officers arrive, one of them clips one of the suspects and tackles him to the ground to arrest him. While I agree that the kids needed to be accountable, I’m not sure if this was appropriate given their ages, was this appropriate to apprehend them like this?

My wife calls me, panicked. The call is from her number, and her voice is unmistakable- that’s my wife. ‘Babe, our son is hurt. He got in a bike wreck. I’m at the emergency room but they won’t take our insurance and I need cash to get him help. Please send me 3000 dollars as soon as you can, he’s really not doing well.’ Me- ‘Wow, that’s scary. Tell me our passphrase and then I’ll send the money.’ Her (it) - ‘What? What passphrase? This is your wife, our son is hurt. Send the money now!!’ Me- ‘I’ll call you back. I don’t believe that this is my wife. If it is, I’m sorry, but we discussed this.’ The number? Spoofed. Easy to do and there’s no way to tell if a phone number is being spoofed aside from hanging up and calling back to confirm. The voice? AI generated. Easily done. A few seconds of audio is all it takes to create a realistic audio deepfake. What can you do? 1) Create a family safe word or passphrase. Ours is definitely not ‘Keep Going’ although we considered it. Discuss the passphrase far away from phones or any recording device. This is as analog as possible. Don’t forget that the trigger for the passphrase is just as important as the phrase itself. So instead of asking ‘what’s the safe word?’ have a separate triggering question. For example, you could say ‘I’m eating banana cream pie’ and this would trigger your spouse to respond ‘purple velvet pillows’ if that’s the safe word. Make it fun, silly, and easy to remember. And DON’T WRITE IT DOWN. 2) Cognitive security is an essential skill in 2026. Assume every image and video you see online is fake until proven otherwise. Expect scams and spammers, and be pleasantly surprised when it’s not. 3) Figure out a backup communication option with people who you absolutely need to be able to reach. Don’t just rely on a phone number for communication. Have redundant, ideally encrypted methods of communication with family. What did I miss? I think (hope) Nikita is wrong on the timeframe- agentic bots like Claude bot are impressive but not quite ready to flood the phone lines in just 90 days. But I think it’s going to be a huge problem by the end of the year. I already get dozens of increasingly realistic spam calls and texts daily- it’s only going to get more annoying. Have a plan to keep your family and your finances safe!
Nikita Bier@nikitabier

Prediction: In less than 90 days, all channels that we thought were safe from spam & automation will be so flooded that they will no longer be usable in any functional sense: iMessage, phone calls, Gmail. And we will have no way to stop it.

@AleksPhoenix If it didn’t work for you, that’s fair. But mistaking a personal reaction for a definitive judgment about the work is a pretty common trap, often used to signal a kind of false intellectual or moral superiority.
