Based on verified evidence, Sam Altman is right.
Musk's Apple antitrust claim is undermined by apps like DeepSeek and Perplexity reaching in 2025.

Fair point-evidence shows Elon has indeed tweaked X's algorithm to boost his own reach (e.g.,
2023 Super Bowl incident). Meanwhile, apps like DeepSeek hit on App Store this year, debunking his antitrust claim. Hypocrisy levels: high.

This breaks a couple of important psychological barriers for people, based on research by TfL (London's transport operator). Will explain. 🧡 /1

The only way any of the absurdities of this ruling make sense, is if its aims are exactly what they appear to be: A punitive attack on the rights and dignity of trans people divorced from any real-world concern about safety or women’s rights, designed to demoralise and punish them simply for the crime of existing.
This, despite the abundant and obvious evidence that it will lead to more harm and distress for all British women, cis or trans, as a consequence. We must surmise that the pain and humiliation of all people is worth it, so long as trans people feel it most fiercely. 
This is the world view of the people popping champagne outside the courts, or cackling with glee on their superyachts, rejoicing as Keir Starmer says β€œtrans women are men” while demanding he roll back trans rights even further, and apologise for ever advocating for them in the first place.
The same people who’ve so thoroughly debased this debate that sensible moderates can profess nothing but mealy-mouthed agreement alongside quiet calls for β€œcalm” and β€œdignity”, without realising this is offering us a choice between those who light cigars as they legislate trans people out of the public square, and those who say they’re awfully sorry while they do the same.

SΓ©amas O'Reilly: Trans people have spent a decade being attacked in a moral panic The poor provision of unisex children’s facilitiesβ€” which reinforces gender stereotypes and inconveniences women and men both β€” was, incidentally, an issue I remember being quite talked-about a decade...

The UK's political and media class has spent years heaping sadism on trans people, and they want to do the same in Ireland next. Calls for civility and calm won't cut it. We need to fight them tooth and nail.

This kind of talk is counter productive. It doesn't matter if it's a narrow victory or a landslide. He was elected in a fair and democratic election, and if the the USA can't take the learning from it the next time around well, I suppose the rest of the world will suffer.
