imho gemini always is one "oh wait" release away from being leader esp their multi modal stuff is extremely interesting – esp w/ video and/or [later] worldmodels for robotics

Tesla-SpaceX-xAI Closed Ecosystem Revolutionizes Robotics and AI
By

“If Musk succeeds in what these filings suggest — Tesla cars providing the data, xAI providing the intelligence, SpaceX providing the global connectivity — the result isn't three companies. It's one closed-loop ecosystem that no single-sector competitor can replicate.”

My read?… https://t.co/OBrOmEJQpl"If Musk succeeds in what these filings suggest — Tesla cars providing the data, xAI providing the intelligence, SpaceX providing the global connectivity — the result isn't three companies. It's one closed-loop ecosystem that no single-sector competitor can replicate." My read? SpaceX is a few things. 1. A way to get things to space.
2. Datacenters on earth and in space. Infrastructure for building and running AIs).
3. Packet distribution from those datasets to humans and machines. (Starlink).
4. Infrastructure on moon and Mars (eventually).
5. AI to run and orchestrate robots (the brains of Optimus and some of Robotaxi network, both via Grok). Tesla is a few other things. 1. Robot manufacturing.
2. AI for enabling robots to move around the world and, coming soon, manipulate it. (Runs the body of Optimus and runs most of Robotaxi network)
3. Infrastructure to run the robots (charge, clean, and maintain them). Each of these two groups will be intertwined. Especially in Optimus. This is why I am not selling my Tesla stock. I see Optimus as part of the Robotaxi network as the most important new product introduction since the Apple II and will improve the lives of many more people than that did. I am investing in that. When Optimus gets added to the Robotaxi network it will bring "everything as a service" to all of us which dramatically changes how we will buy everything. This patent analysis shows that I need to sell something else and invest in SpaceX. Because when we talk to Robotaxi or Optimus or any other Tesla robot we will be talking to Grok. Made by SpaceX. This morning I had breakfast with a guy who worked for Amazon robotics for a decade. He couldn't find holes to poke and didn't disagree when I said I don't see a competitor in the Western World for either. This is why the SpaceX IPO will be the biggest ever.

Verification badges and community notes fail to solve misinformation problem

Verified handle doesn’t mean much anymore since anyone can pay their way to verification. Community notes is a good initiative but only a partial solution to the fake news problem.

Huawei MateBook Fold Redefines Personal Computing with Foldable Display

Huawei may have just shown where personal computing is heading next.
— Pascal Bornet (@pascal_bornet) 11 avril 2026
And it looks a lot less like a traditional laptop.
The MateBook Fold takes an 18.3-inch OLED display, folds it like a book, and turns it into a smaller 13-inch device when closed.
No built-in keyboard.

the gap between altmans public statements and openais actual behavior has been widening steadily for 2 years now. at some point "we want to benefit humanity" and "we want zero liability when our products cause harm" become mutually exclusive positions

Gary Marcus Condemns Altman’s Moral Stance and Dishonesty
By

Violence was unjustified, and i don’t support it. But many many people may die at Altman’s hands and it is important to speak out when he lies about his moral stance. The headline below was the last straw for me.
