This is exactly why @alternatefutures.bsky.social we've made plans to ensure sovereignty above all else. Before we released our DSFM for human alignment we pivoted to ensure our infrastructure was outside the reach of big tech and the US government.

Anthropic doesn't have to be commandeered by the govt for them to make their life hell. They only need to call Bezos to threaten to pull their compute. Game over.

This war will be fought at a hardware level.

When you show people how to use the power of many AI's combined. Then you start getting things like inspirational animations made from things you say in meetings 🀣

Someone said all of you hate AI and crypto here. That's not true right?

VotAR by Mitch Oz | The Covenant of Humanistic Technologies Democracy in Latin America is broken. Not because people don't care. Because the tools are stuck in 1995. Federal elections cost a fortune. Municipal organizations can't get quorum because voting requires showing up in person. Union voters suffer from information asymmetry and opaque processes. Simple decisions drag on forever. Trust erodes. Participation dies. Progress gets lost in time. VotAR fixes this in one move: voting through WhatsApp. That's it. No new apps. No voting centers. No barriers. Everyone already has WhatsApp. Everyone already knows how to use it. Now they can vote from anywhere, instantly, with absolute privacy and total transparency. The math is simple: zero-knowledge proofs keep your vote secret (even from us). Blockchain makes every vote publicly verifiable. Open-source code means no one has to trust us, they can audit everything themselves. The results are transformative: institutions cut costs by 85–90%, get real-time results, achieve real quorum, and resto

most voting systems are broken

this Covenant artifact applies Principle #3: "Privacy by Default" to democracy itself

VotAR started at the Human Tech residency at Edge City Patagonia, and it’s already moving beyond theory

Personalization at every level of our online life is coming next πŸ™Œ That will also come with the ability to say that you don't want to give up any information in order to get that experience either. Informed choice. That's what #AI can do.

The President is Lying to the Public
YouTube video by Governor Wes Moore The President is Lying to the Public

The President is lying to the public:

1) For the past century, the federal government has been responsible for the Potomac Interceptor – not Maryland. The sewage pipe is on federal land.

My partner treats me like a kid when I'm in work grind mode.

Yesterday he reminded me to go outside and get some fresh air and sun.

Today he brought me vitamin D gummies to my desk.

I love this man.

Raskin: "I want the whole country to look at this. This is the attorney general of the US whose job is law enforcement. We've never had a witness who has misunderstood our rules and been unable to conform his or her conduct to our rules before. Excuse me."

You can't be here reading this message and then blanketly be against data centers, then you're being a hypocrite.

CNN: "Another photograph - these are notes AG Bondi brought to the hearing today. This shows a list of Rep. Jayapal's search history. Lawmakers are allowed to go to a DOJ facility to search unredacted files. We learned from this photo that the searches are apparently being tracked & read by the DOJ"

NEGUSE: AG Bondi, that man works for you now, right? The man in that video from J6 yelling 'kill them!' at cops. His name is Jared Wise.

BONDI: He does work for us, yes. I believe he was pardoned

NEGUSE: And you expect hard-working police officers to believe you take law enforcement seriously?

The ONLY safe and ethical AI is open-source code AND open data. That's what we've been working on though and honestly thanks to the Chinese, it's just as good as the closed or partially open stuff.

There is no sense in filing patents in AI anymore. By the time you get it filed someone already wrote something similar or better and open sourced it. I really fucking love this timeline.

Having my agents self improve based on recent research was a total game changer.

Then I created a compost layer for memory that has quality scoring instead of FIFO for cleanup.

The two combined are blowing my mind 🀯

Reminder: can't use clawbot in ICE detention. Maybe consider that having the Navy build permanent detention centers for more people than we have immigrants is probably a sign to have your agent help w/ some activism. They detained a 67yr old wht man just making his way back home from a run.

DePIN should be as easy to launch on as Vercel or Railway.

Crypto builders aren't DX builders.

We solved this @alternatefutures.bsky.social

We didn't build the networks, we just made it easy to connect to them.

No wallets, just github to launch in 2 mins.

So electable and better than Trump and has at least not taken millions in AIPAC money. Also, you're not wrong.

Aside from me, the only person I know winning today is that young guy from that fund I can't remember from Miami who tried to convince me to invest in a VIX play a year ago. Well played dude, you are undoubtedly doing cartwheels.

I have not sought out things in this round of Epstein files. I have still been entirely traumatized by some images I've accidently seen scrolling into view on my feed. There are no words. How many girls just went missing and were never found? Has anyone even searched the island? How does this cont?
