In San Francisco the following couple of weeks. Taking meetings to close our seed funding round @alternatefutures.bsky.social soon! If you are an investor that would like to meet, know an investor I should meet, or are an AI founder who is looking to reduce their compute overhead. Reach out!

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.
Yeah, I'm not sure we are ever going to get to the point where a model can be explained that way. There is a level of complication you just simply can not work around. However, as long as they are available to researchers in an explainable manner, then we can ensure they aren't being manipulated.
The tools exist. The Allen Institute has been releasing new open source tooling all the time. Google Vertex, Amazon Bedrock, and Azure ML all have tools. Could they better, yes. They have and will continue to improve, especially if you require it.
My goal is to use my experience breaking down complicated systems to non-technical people. To provide a clear definition of explainable AI in the true sense and convince them of the dystopic future that follows if we don't make it so. Not conjecture, facts. Wish me luck.
The best thing we can do to ensure a better future with AI is ensure that any AI used in the public sector is fully explainable. I intend to work my ass off in lobbying state congress in Washington so that we're the first. Here we go!
This is exactly why @alternatefutures.bsky.social we've made plans to ensure sovereignty above all else. Before we released our DSFM for human alignment we pivoted to ensure our infrastructure was outside the reach of big tech and the US government.
Anthropic doesn't have to be commandeered by the govt for them to make their life hell. They only need to call Bezos to threaten to pull their compute. Game over.
This war will be fought at a hardware level.
When you show people how to use the power of many AI's combined. Then you start getting things like inspirational animations made from things you say in meetings π€£
Someone said all of you hate AI and crypto here. That's not true right?
most voting systems are broken
this Covenant artifact applies Principle #3: "Privacy by Default" to democracy itself
VotAR started at the Human Tech residency at Edge City Patagonia, and itβs already moving beyond theory

Personalization at every level of our online life is coming next π That will also come with the ability to say that you don't want to give up any information in order to get that experience either. Informed choice. That's what #AI can do.
The Costco sized Samango should be illegal. You know you're gonna eat a whole one.
Not all EDM is created equal.
The President is lying to the public:
1) For the past century, the federal government has been responsible for the Potomac Interceptor β not Maryland. The sewage pipe is on federal land.

My partner treats me like a kid when I'm in work grind mode.
Yesterday he reminded me to go outside and get some fresh air and sun.
Today he brought me vitamin D gummies to my desk.
I love this man.
The billionaire song!
Please don't share this!
Please don't record you singing along!

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."
You can't be here reading this message and then blanketly be against data centers, then you're being a hypocrite.
CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"
Bondi has to go
Trump has to go
NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.
BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned
NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?
The ONLY safe and ethical AI is open-source code AND open data. That's what we've been working on though and honestly thanks to the Chinese, it's just as good as the closed or partially open stuff.
There is no sense in filing patents in AI anymore. By the time you get it filed someone already wrote something similar or better and open sourced it. I really fucking love this timeline.
Having my agents self improve based on recent research was a total game changer.
Then I created a compost layer for memory that has quality scoring instead of FIFO for cleanup.
The two combined are blowing my mind π€―
Everyone should listen to this entire speech. Excellent and inspirational:
Ossoff: "You're seeing what I'm seeing, right? The president posting about the Obamas like a Klansman."
Reminder: can't use clawbot in ICE detention. Maybe consider that having the Navy build permanent detention centers for more people than we have immigrants is probably a sign to have your agent help w/ some activism. They detained a 67yr old wht man just making his way back home from a run.
NATS Supercluster + DePIN Abstraction = Magic Agent Swarms for less
If you understand this you're my kind of nerd.
