🚨 European media are SHOCKED: They said the AfD party and RN party had reached their maximum support. Today, BOTH broke their national polling records. Marine Le Pen hit 38% (+2), with AfD hitting 29% (+1)… 🇫🇷🇩🇪

ELON MUSK: “I have a lot of respect for makers who create something useful. Build something useful that people enjoy. I have huge respect for people who make things and provide useful services.”

the reason i'm so chronically online on X is that i owe my entire career to it. every job i've had has been through relationships i've made here, and as i hit 50k - a number i never thought i'd see on my profile - i can't help but feel a little emotional. you see, i started building up my profile when @wifelette and @tomdale took a chance on me many years ago - a nobody in melbourne who was still learning how to code in js - and invited me to speak at @EmberConf. i had never been to a conference at that point in my life, let alone speak at one. they found me through my tweets sharing my blogposts about learning the framework. i'm not exaggerating when i say that my life changed after doing that talk. public speaking was my greatest fear and i was visibly shaking for the first 5 minutes of my talk, but somehow i managed to remember everything i had practiced. that talk was how i got my first real job (and moved to the US) at @DockYard, thanks to @bcardarella also taking a chance on me. throughout this time i continued posting on twitter and building up my profile little by little. after you've done one talk, the next one is a little easier and so i kept doing more of it - seeing the world i had never been exposed to before. i got my job @netflix the same way, through doing a talk, and people taking a chance on me. some of you may be surprised to know that i never majored in CS and that i'm a self taught programmer. so going through a FAANG interview was inconceivable to me at that point in my life. i actually tried to back out of the interview, but they convinced me to do it anyway, and im glad that i did. i then got my job at facebook through Dan Abramov (i miss him here!!), who i met at a conference talk i did in London. we stayed in touch on twitter for a while before he reached out to me asking if i would be interested in working on the react team (uh, hell yes?! but wait, me??). massive imposter syndrome has followed me everywhere. now at @cursor_ai and @SpaceXAI, i feel so lucky that i get to work alongside such crazy talented, driven, and ambitious people who want to build beautiful products for everyone. and i'm also still in disbelief that this many people care about what i have to say here. thank you everyone for taking a chance on me, and thanks @X for being there for me this whole time 🤍

Elon Musk described the mechanism that lets millions of intelligent people arrive at the same conclusion without a single independent input between them. Musk: “If your entire exposure is to legacy mainstream media, so that all your information sources are that Trump is basically Hitler, and your friend group has that same information, you have no countervailing opinion.” One source, repeated back by a friend group drawing on that same source, is a single input arriving twelve times. Agreement gets counted as evidence. A belief that has never met resistance feels, from the inside, identical to one that survived it. That is why almost nobody catches it in themselves. Musk: “Then they actually just think Trump is Hitler, even though it’s a little strange he didn’t do Hitler things the last four years.” The comparison had four years of executive power to prove itself and produced nothing. The belief held anyway. Any description of a person that survives the total absence of supporting events was never built on events. Then the same apparatus turned on the man saying it. He spent a decade celebrated as the builder of the electric car company and the rocket company that put American astronauts back in orbit from American soil. The engineering never changed. His politics did, and the coverage inverted inside a single news cycle. Output was never the variable being measured. No conspiracy is required. Outrage outperforms accuracy on every number a newsroom is graded on. Thousands of people chasing one incentive produce coordination nobody had to organize. The arrangement collapsed when the layer between the source and the reader disappeared. The person who was in the room posts it, and the correction comes from someone else who was in the room. It is louder, uglier, and far more honest. Contradiction now arrives whether you invite it or not. Even the owner of the platform gets corrected on his own posts by his own product. For most of the last century a few dozen editors decided what an entire country believed had happened that day. People accepted it as the natural order because no alternative had ever existed to measure it against. Every civilization inherits its picture of reality from whoever controls the distance between an event and the people who hear about it. That distance is now close to zero for the first time in human history. The filter is gone and it cannot be rebuilt. What you believe is finally yours.

California has officially signed the “Stop Nick Shirley Act” (AB 2624) into law. This bill was created only after I exposed widespread fraud in immigrant communities across America, specifically in California’s Medicaid, nonprofits and other welfare programs funded by our tax dollars. These politicians need the fraud to continue and they sadly use immigrants to do so often. They fund nonprofits and NGOs with hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars every year for immigration services, including free healthcare and have now made “immigration support service providers” essentially a protected class in California. For example, if I film a hospice or a “learing center” with no patients receiving millions through Medicaid and the owner gives me a paper saying I cannot publish the video, I cannot publish it. If I publish it to expose them and they claim it caused them “fear” or a third party threatens them, I face a minimum $4,000 civil fine plus the legal fees of the individual or group suing me. This bill was created by the Attorney General’s wife and co-sponsored by CHIRLA, a nonprofit that has received over $80,000,000 in taxpayer dollars for “immigrant support services.” Do you understand how this works yet? When the fraud is exposed, they create new laws to protect the fraudsters and penalize those who expose it. By signing this bill, the Governor and California politicians expose themselves as the corrupt politicians they are. This is not the end, the fight has just begun. More to come soon, this is far from over.

Reminder: Grok Build has xhigh effort, and it’s insanely powerful If you want to brute-force your way through a difficult project, just type: /effort Then switch to Extra High Effort It gives Grok 4.6 its highest reasoning and implementation effort for the really hard stuff

HOLY SH*T, I BUILT A F**KING COMPANY INSIDE GROK BOT i split the operation into separate roles for research, writing, outreach, ops, finance and support. each agent owns one narrow job 6 agents → 1 shared operation → automatic handoffs → human approval each bot keeps its own workflow and memory, then passes finished work forward instead of routing everything back through me the control layer catches anything that sends, spends, publishes or deletes and pushes it into approval before anything happens after a few runs this stops feeling like ai chat. it feels like a 24/7 operations team running behind one dashboard

This chart really scares the hell out of me you can see how dramatically U.S. birth rates have fallen in just a few decades… and they’re still falling If this continues, we’re heading toward a place with far fewer children and young people, and an increasingly old population....that would be very depressing future Even if we achieve the abundance through AI, what does abundance mean if there are fewer and fewer people around to inherit the future? this is a really big problem, and it's something most people don't realize it yet and we don't really have much time until it's too late

Hi friends! Going to walk through Grok Bot for GTM this week, come join and we can chat about our @bot teams: luma.com/wb8mrs0g

Interesting

I’ve been warning about this for years

Grok @Bot edited this video entirely......yes, it can edit videos too It even synced the music perfectly

As foretold in the prophecy

LinkedIn users have been editing their work histories to add "AI" and remove "DEI".

This is why I switched Starship to stainless steel. We have since created our own new alloys and no longer use 301.

A French writer explained the error in 1850. A Nobel economist repeated it in a Pennsylvania lecture hall in 1978. Governments still make it every year. Almost nobody watches the clip. This is Milton Friedman on the parable of the broken window, the oldest mistake in economics. The trick is that the destruction is visible and the cost is not. You see the glazier get paid. You never see what the shopkeeper would have bought instead. Watch how he sets it up before he names the fallacy. He lets the audience agree with the wrong answer first. 176 years of warnings. Still the most persuasive bad idea in politics.

The Bolsheviks killed more ppl & committed more acts of systematic mass murder & pure horror than any other group in the 20th century. Yet it is nothing more than a footnote in our schools. We are taught that “we won the cold war,” but the truth is we were defeated from within.

Curious about the journey from photons to the image or video on your phone? I made a video with Grok @bot, @imagine, and Voice explaining the physics and theory behind it—100% on my phone just chatting. Part I: photons to digital signal Part II: digital signal to pretty picture Pro tip for Grok @bot: Ask it to QA every single frame before handing it back. It saves QA time so you can focus on high-level direction. All technical visualization, including relinearization of the video footage from Grok @imagine to be physically accurate, is done by Grok @bot. Update: added more technical details with higher quality encoding for completion.
