Here’s how I got @elonmusk to watch my youtube video
The secret of the universe is we all have more potential than we can ever see.

Real time graphic storytelling tool I made a couple weeks ago while showing my mom what AI is capable of today.
Its the “thought visualizer” from Bliss if anyones seen that movie :)
Today, we're shipping real-time graphics.
Using Sol 6.1 Ultrafast we can generate custom overlays, diagrams, and even interactive 3D scenes right on a user's screen, no chat.
It's a new visual interface for AI.
Here's me learning about LLMs + hardware.

Let em cook
These last six months feel like some kind of breathless void in the discourse.
Most of the sharpest thinkers I know of appear to be on some kind of hiatus, or are depressed, or took a job somewhere, or are doing some kind of religious hermetic thing. Many are "going through the motions" and privately admit they are losing their direction.
If you look at each person's life trajectory and whatever appears to have diminished their output as writers, artists, thinkers and so on, it all seems just personal on the surface: but I suspect it may actually be a broader kind of 'exhaustion'. Their personal difficulties in their work seem only to be manifestations of a much wider cultural exhaustion.
We appear to be in a transitional era that goes on forever. Many have attempted to keep track of or to influence the general direction that culture is going in, and appeared to be doing so fairly well for a while. But by now, everyone who has attempted that task has been humbled deeply by a series of vague and inscrutable cultural shifts that have snuck in with quiet haste. The result has been total discombobulation and a wearying sense of empty instability.
Nobody knows what is next, and nobody appears to be in a strong position to shape what comes next either. Our compasses are failing us. Meanwhile the publishing industry continues its spectacular death, reading itself is collapsing, and even the anthropological realities of what it means to be human are now in question.
We've felt the "something's gotta give" feeling for so long that we are now numb, and any attempt at saying what will or could or might "give" now feels pointless. Building niche sideline underground IRL projects feels extraordinarily distant. Deep traditional religion appeals, but its logical endpoint is for each of us to shut up, withdraw, and embrace a life of silent devotion.
And above all -- spectacle is now boring, redundant; the wider culture is tired of LOOKING and clicking and subscribing and so on. Writers are tired of marching to the 24/7 tempo of that environment as well. Burnout is the chief export of this system -- for author and reader alike.
Whatever this is, it's clear to me that an era has very quietly ended and that whatever's "next" may not come at all, at least not for a long time yet.

Hi crypto friends. Long time no see. I’m coming to my first conference in a long time for @consensus2026 with the bump.fm team.
Let’s reconnect in Miyamiiiiii.
Just as a note, a wheeled robot stopping 10 ft from its destination so a LEGGED ROBOT CAN WALK ON A FLAT SURFACE as the main demo of a multi billion dollar company is so silly.
This market is such a herd,
And I'm afraid most are running up the wrong slope.

Humanity is about to run:
•our knowledge
•our labor
•our politics
•our economics
•our communication
•our science
•eventually our infrastructure
through large AI models.
If the models are:
•privately owned,
•centrally controlled,
•closed-weight,
•and run in opaque data centers…
…techno-feudalism is inevitable.
If the models are:
•open,
•forkable,
•community-auditable,
•collectively governed,
•or publicly owned…
…humanity has a democratic, pluralistic future.
Robots is the layer that CULTURE wakes up to this.
It’s the tangible evidence for moving the overton window into a discussion of humans vs. techno capital machine.
🚨 AI is training AI. Humans are no longer the only teachers.

Congrats to the @OpenDroids team that achieved this with under $1m in funding.
I've been a big fan of OpenDroids since the first time I spoke with Jack & i'm so excited about what we're planning with @StreetFDN & OpenDroids. There is a small amount of high quality robotics hardware startups that are based in the US.
China is winning the hardware war, which will be a huge issue in the US in the near future. You can see a16z talk about exactly that. "You can't let China win the robotics race" is a direct quote from their team.
What i find most interesting with OpenDroids is that their using logic over theatre. For what do you need a highly capable fully humanoid robotic with legs in most industrial tasks. E.g. FigureAI robots at the BMW factory have no reason to have legs. They literally walk 10 steps back and forth per task.
Don't reinvent the wheel.
is a painfully accurate representation of the current theatre around humanoid robotics.
Photoshopped Robots in warhouses
Telemetry operated robots claimed as autonomous
you name it, every theatrical bs in robotics has already been done to market it better & create this artificial chatgpt moment the sector is hoping for.
OpenSource robotics vs Closed Source surveillance a la skynet.
godspeed

Doing some research on the writings of people thinking about the global economic transition we are going to go through. I think the more clarity we have, the better.
Here's what my AI recommended me, and their key points.
1. W. Brian Arthur — “The Second Economy” (2011)
The economy is splitting into a physical economy and a digital automated economy.
The transition happens through gradual substitution of decision-making → from humans → to “autonomous processes” (software + AI + robots).
Key idea for the transition:
It’s not a jump.
It’s stepwise: one job function at a time becomes automated, which triggers new institutional redesign.
2. Erik Brynjolfsson & Andrew McAfee — “The Second Machine Age” / MIT Work of the Future initiative
What they focus on:
How societies adjust as automation becomes incrementally better than humans.
They propose a multi-phase transition:
Augmentation (AI helping workers)
Hybrid tasks (AI taking slices of jobs)
Re-engineering of whole workflows
Automation-first design of new industries
3. Peter Frase — “Four Futures” (2016)
scarcity vs abundance
hierarchy vs equality
The transition is not technological — it’s political.
Different power structures shape different versions of the transitional pathway.
4. Aaron Bastani — “Fully Automated Luxury Communism” (2019) (not that I support this, good to research though)
Automation of high-cost sectors (energy, mining, logistics).
Rapid declines in the cost of information goods → “marginal cost collapse.”
Mid-stage society where human labor becomes optional.
5. Zoltan Istvan, the Future of Work groups, and Transhumanist writers
The mechanics of phasing out labor:
Universal Basic Services →
Universal Basic Income →
Automation dividend →
Asset ownership transition
Their value is the sequence, not the politics.
6. Yudkowsky / Bostrom (AI governance)
How institutions fail when automation surpasses human labor.
What needs to be built so the transition is stable (alignment, regulatory guardrails).
Useful for designing a safe transition.
7. Kate Raworth’s “Doughnut Economics” & Mariana Mazzucato
How public investment + mission-driven innovation reshape production.
How to shift from a labor-taxed economy to a resource or value-based economy.

Elon Musk states robotics is an "infinite money glitch" because of the ability for end-to-end droids mining, refining, and building droids loop... and states thus the future of money is "mega watts"
The counter is simple:
If statement "infinite money glitch" = true then "infinite energy glitch" = true
Because if robots can produce "anything" they can produce massive clean energy farms.
And this story does not include the tracks of nuclear, fission, or fusion coming online.
His take is an attempt at defining the bottleneck of the future...
Instead a more obvious bottleneck of the future is REGULATION. This is what currently holds back nuclear from being the main, abundant energy source.
And further it will be the reason why cant we mine more, build more automated factories, or let the abundance machine fulfill its ultimate goal of the full energetic capture of our sun's energy.
Thus, in a future where regulation is the bottleneck, politics becomes money/power.
One could then assume future of money will be politics (and it has already has been decoupling to represent this)...
Yet this assumes the foothold of centralized constructs of power in legacy government systems will not surcome to market forces.
On the horizon of a population (who now has now been given back their soul by AI/Robots eating their jobs) meaning the void of purpose (which was too often haphazardly filled by serving a corporate machine earning $) will be empty.
Thus the "cultural awakening" through existential forces + opening of time = finally choosing politicians who return the power back to the people.
(Civic Tech Renaissance) ex: Pollitician.org
Because direct democracy fails to give power back to people because of bureaucracy, liquid taste is the likely alternative of a new trust layer between people.
Which means REPUTATION would be the new currency.
...Always has been?
Yes... but it just becomes more obvious.
Those with wealth utilize those with influence to sway the world in the way which they want to see happen.
In particular to try to avoid civic uprising...
Which sounds scary, but civic uprising in the age of the internet is alot different than of prior. Before rising up meant coordinating armies on the physical plane (dangerous). Coordinating armies on the digital plane is far more effective, and far less deadly.
Instead THE PEOPLE WILL AMASS AROUND NARRATIVES THAT BENEFIT THEM.
The new incentive becomes not selling the soul, but supporting the narratives that give it more freedom/power.
Bitcoin is one such example of a piercing force which pulled power from the entire fiat money system and rewarded the early believers in its success.
Soo the future of money is taste?
As in a prediction of what others will choose "tastes" good enough to believe in (with their $)
So when investing on a decade time scale one should ask...
Does it taste like shared glory?
Does it feel like shared glory?
Which requires the question:
What do people want more of?
In reduction that = VALUE
The future of money is... what it was always meant to be... shared value gained.
With Musk spending the past months winning his campaign to align an incentive of 12% more equity in his "infinite money glitch"
It seems he is mistaking more control of energy capacity as the right gameplay vs. control of meaning capacity.
When abundance collapses scarcity, what remains scarce is orientation/teleology.
Those who can direct collective attention toward coherent futures will wield the true currency.
Credit ability.
Elon is telling us…
“Maybe there won't even be money in the future but might be measured in terms of wattage, like how much power can you bring from electrical standpoint?”
This aligns with Nikola Tesla's belief in energy as a transformative energy.

AI "cleaned" version of my writing:
Elon Musk calls robotics an “infinite money glitch” — the idea that once robots can mine, refine, and build more robots, the loop of production becomes self-sustaining. In that frame, money is just a proxy for energy, so the future of money becomes megawatts.
But if the “infinite money glitch” is true, then so is the infinite energy glitch. Because if robots can make anything, they can also make massive clean-energy farms — solar, wind, even orbital collectors. And that’s before we factor in fission and fusion.
Musk’s statement tries to define the bottleneck of the future. But the real bottleneck isn’t energy. It’s regulation. Regulation is what keeps nuclear from powering the planet, what slows new mining, and what strangles factory automation. It’s what keeps the abundance machine from realizing its full potential — the total energetic capture of the Sun.
In that world, where regulation is the bottleneck, politics becomes money. Power flows to whoever controls the levers of permission.
You can already see this happening: the decoupling of value from labor, from capital, from production — drifting toward influence.
But the political bottleneck won’t last forever. Market forces always eat bureaucracy. The moment a population regains its soul — freed from meaningless work by AI and robotics — it will demand meaning again. The cultural awakening that follows will drive a Civic Tech Renaissance. Tools like Pollitician.org point toward this: systems that route power back to the people.
Direct democracy collapses under bureaucracy. The successor will be liquid taste — a fluid, reputation-based layer of trust between people.
In that world, reputation becomes currency.
It always has been — only now it becomes undeniable. Those with wealth already buy influence to steer the world. In the digital era, the people can do the same — not through violence, but through narratives. The new uprising happens online, coordinated around stories that serve collective self-interest.
The new incentive isn’t selling your soul — it’s amplifying the narratives that set it free.
Bitcoin was the prototype: a memetic weapon that pulled value out of fiat by rewarding early believers in a shared myth of sovereignty.
So maybe the future of money is taste — the ability to predict what others will believe tastes good enough to invest their faith, time, and capital in.
Over a decade-scale horizon, the question becomes:
Does it taste like shared glory?
Does it feel like shared glory?
Because what people want more of is what they value — and value is the gravity well of the future economy.
The future of money is what it always was: shared value gained.
Musk may be chasing control over energy capacity, but the true frontier is meaning capacity. When abundance collapses scarcity, the only thing left scarce is orientation.
Those who can direct collective attention toward coherent futures will hold the real currency.
Credit-ability.
