Disappointed by how @marketplace.org uncritically reported the OpenAI hype purchase of a vapor hardware company with no cash changing hands. You're not their public relations team.

I feel like I'm living in an alternate reality! These assholes aren't building anything! Sam Altman handed Jony Ive $6.5bn in stock to buy a company that hasn't built anything. Why can't OpenAI afford to buy them in cash? How much cash does OpenAI have exactly?

Reading @karenhao.bsky.social's new book Empire of AI. Excellent writing, eye opening and disturbing. Read it, and tell your representatives to read it.

RIP George Wendt. Nicest famous person I ever met.

Not that anyone asked, but during my tenure on the Pentagon’s Defense Innovation Board, under part of Obama-2 and all of Trump-1, we visited Military Bases domestically & abroad. At no time did any member of the Armed Forces I met say to me: “America needs less science funding.”
