Last night's AI Build Club was great. Kids split into real dev teams — graphics, lead, environment — and had working apps with cool logos and names in about 90 minutes. Proud kids. Excited parents. xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2EmrONrKP…

Shew.
Most people are not special, rational, or particularly good. They're tribal primates running social scripts, ranking status, and defending comforting lies over evidence. Intelligence, drive, and outcomes are heavily genetic. Equality of result is a fantasy. The average person will never produce anything of lasting value, and the world is carried by a thin minority they resent.

Ask Your AI One Question: What's Shaky?

Bret Weinstein on DarkHorse: "At the point at which somebody's closest confidant is the AI, that's an emergency." I build with AI all day. Grok, ChatGPT, agents. And he's right. Use AI all day. Confide in people. Going live now to talk about it. xitter.twitterapi.xyz/i/broadcasts/2AMPglVPr…

Is AI Lying to You?
AI is the most useful tech ever. That doesn't make it true. Ask for the source, ask what's shaky, get a second opinion.

It's feeling much better this morning.
(p.s. thanks for the usage reset last night/this morning!)
Already hit it hard this morning and I'm only at 2%!
Just did a round table review with the Grok @Bot engineering team.
Fixes are being implemented overnight and you should notice a dramatic improvement by tomorrow. If not, reply to this post and we will address any remaining issues right away.

About every 24-36 months I get the itch to play a video game.
It only last about 2-4 weeks.
Portal, Breath of The Wild, Tears of the Kingdom
(I'm a zelda fan)
I'm getting the itch - what should I play next?
Help me internet!

I promise I’m not high.
I just ran over seven miles and 20 minutes in my sauna.
And I am entranced by this beam of light and dancing water particles in my little sauna tent.

Crazy exciting.
It’s incredible that we get to live in these exciting times.
Across our projects @GoogleDeepMind, we are witnessing a genuine phase transition in the pace of scientific discovery. You will see a glimpse of this in our releases in the next few weeks.

It Stops Stealing My Mouse
Grok Bot is great at controlling your computer, but it used to steal your mouse and keyboard, and you just had to watch. Now it works in the background like a coworker on your laptop. This morning it set up the livestream, entered the titles and descriptions, got OBS ready, and handled every channel while I sat back and drank my strawberry watermelon water mix.
