Trump's visa freeze sidelines immigrant doctors. Here's how trib.al/29U5KrV

I just got off the phone with my Nigerian friend. The consequences of the Visa ban imposed under President Trump are far more reaching than I initially thought. In total, 75 countries are facing some ban of some shape or form with 19 full ban. Out of the 75, 25 are African countries of which Nigeria is one. Now my friend just finished his PhD and under the “normal” dispensation could apply for optional practical training (OPT) and get it approved within 3 months which allow him to stay and work for 1 year and could be extended for additional 2 years because he is in a stem field. Under the current visa ban, he cannot get his OPT processed within 3 months. He is on an indefinite wait and without the OPT, he cannot work. So he either leaves the country and forfeit the OPT or stay without job. That’s the hardest point you can be in the US where you don’t get a pause on bills or a friend or family to borrow money to hold body. And just thinking through this, I find that many internationals may be in a similar or worse situation. For medical doctors who came on J1 or H1B, you’re expected to transition into permanent residency after your training. J1 and H1B only commits you to your facility of training for the period of the training especially for the J1. Now after 3 years in residency, if you’re from an affected country, you cannot be processed for any other immigration benefits. The is worse because if you did not start the permanent residency application and gotten the first part approved before the executive order, there is no where to turn; not even the indefinite wait. So you will have to leave the US within 60 days on completing your residency This is such a tragedy for everyone including some of the US industries such as the healthcare sector that will be losing thousands of the US trained physicians. I see most of these physicians moving to Canada, Australia or New Zealand where they would not be required to take further testing before practicing. But that in itself will take them months if not years to apply for appropriate immigration benefits. To what end….?

@adcock_brett Archer public flights: 0 Figure robots sold to people: 0 Hark devices delivered: 0 Will circle back in a year.

Today I'm excited to introduce Hark, a new artificial intelligence lab building the most advanced, personal intelligence in the world We've been in stealth for 8 months, assembling one of the greatest AI and hardware teams on the planet I want to explain why I started Hark and what we're focused on I've spent the last 3 years working on the hardest AI challenge imaginable: giving AI a humanoid body. On the digital side, I've been using all the existing LLM chatbots - and I have to say, they feel incredibly dumb to me AGI, in the limit, should feel like a sci-fi movie. It should be able to listen and talk. It should have persistent memory and be highly personalized. It should see and touch the world. But we're far from this today We are crafting a new interface to AGI. Intelligence that lets you offload your mental workload into a system that begins to think like you and sometimes ahead of you We started Hark with one goal: build the world's most advanced personal intelligence - paired with next-generation hardware designed to serve as a universal interface between humans and machines hark.com

@adcock_brett And I thought I was a jack of all trade and lacked the ability to focus on one thing - Elon & Bret proved me wrong

Learn NVIDIA tech ASAP. The engineers who understand GPUs, CUDA, and AI factories will run the next decade of the AI era.

Anthropic will eventually go into hardware and robotics. Mark my words.

Very excited to see millions of new businesses come into the world over the next year, a very special moment to build!

@HRH_bankeoniru Sometimes your opinion is best in your head

They stand with Iran on social media. But they will choose American Visa over Iranian Visa. Height of jocularity!

@Eze_Wilberforce Nigerian again

When an evil man dies, don't pretend he was a saint. That's exactly what Trump has done. His only problem is that he says the truth, but other chose to be hypocrites.

Instead of watching a movie this weekend, watch a legendary mathematician talk about the future of AI

We are also releasing self-contained lecture notes that explain flow matching and diffusion models from scratch. This goes from "zero" to the state-of-the-art in modern Generative AI. 📖 Read the notes here: arxiv.org/abs/2506.02070 Joint work with @EErives40101.
