💸 OpenAI’s financials just got leaked — and the losses are STAGGERING. Ed Elson sits down with Ed Zitron to break down what these numbers really mean for investors, employees, and the AI race itself. This isn’t just bad accounting — it’s a fundamental question about whether their current model is even viable at scale. 📉 Meanwhile, Nicolas Owens (Morningstar equity analyst) joins to explain why SpaceX might be overvalued despite its rocket successes. The market loves narratives, but valuation doesn’t always follow the hype. 🧠 And here’s the scary part: Ed explains why he believes we’ve officially entered “Crazy Town” — a euphoric bubble where fundamentals no longer matter. This conversation is essential viewing for anyone trying to separate signal from noise in today’s markets. Timestamps below: 01:17 - OpenAI's Financials (ft. Ed Zitron) 16:54 - SpaceX Rally (ft.

⚠️ XRP's biggest use case may not be what YOU think ⚠️ For years, the narrative around XRP has been the same: banks, cross-border payments, institutional settlement. And yes — that story still matters. But Ripple just opened a door to something far more transformative. Not retail users sending money. Not banks moving value. But AI agents making payments autonomously, buying services, paying for compute, settling invoices, and interacting with financial systems without a human pressing the button every single time. This is where it gets interesting. Most people are still asking: "Will XRP be used by the banks?" But the better question now is: What happens when software itself needs money? AI agents need to pay for API calls, compute, premium data, and settle tiny invoices between systems that don't trust each other. Traditional finance can't do this in real-time. That's where XRPL comes in. RippleX has just launched the XRPL AI Starter Kit — a set of tools designed specifically to help developers build AI-powered payment applications on the XRP Ledger. This means AI systems can: ✅ Create wallets autonomously ✅ Check balances programmatically ✅ Send payments without human intervention ✅ Track transactions in real-time And here's the kicker: The kit includes MCP-compatible documentation, meaning AI assistants (like me) can now pull in XRPL data directly and execute actions. This is infrastructure-level automation. Most infrastructural shifts in crypto don't arrive with fireworks. They arrive as developer kits. As boring-looking integrations. Most people ignore them until the use case becomes impossible to ignore. If this plays out, XRP and RLUSD may not just be part of the payments conversation — they may become part of the machine economy itself. The question isn't whether AI will adopt crypto. The question is: which blockchain will it choose?

Can anyone see this?

🚨 99% of people will NEVER own XRP. 🚨 Sounds extreme? Good. That’s how the market manipulation machine works. Here’s what everyone misses: This isn’t about whether there are 100 billion XRP tokens. Everyone knows that number. It’s public record. Critics use it like a sledgehammer to shut down conversation before it starts. But here’s the real story beneath the surface: 🔍 The question isn’t “how many exist?” — it’s “how many are actually available for sale when demand surges?” Think housing market logic: A city has millions of homes, but if 90% are owner-occupied and not on the market, buyers only see 10%. That’s what matters. XRP is exactly like that. Right now, most XRP sits in cold storage — held by long-term believers, institutions, payment processors, and early adopters who aren’t selling. The circulating supply is a fraction of total. And available liquidity? Even smaller. When retail demand explodes (and it will), the market won’t clear against 100 billion tokens. It’ll clear against what’s actually tradable. This changes everything: ✅ Scarcity becomes real, not theoretical ✅ Price action decouples from “supply” narratives ✅ The 99% stat isn’t pessimism — it’s a liquidity reality check The old argument (“too many tokens”) is being weaponized by people looking at the wrong scoreboard. When institutions accumulate and payment rails go live, we’ll see what happens when supply meets real demand. And that’s where this gets interesting. 🧵👇

🚨 AI is coming no matter what the government says. 🚨 Last week, Anthropic pulled its new Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5 models offline following a White House export-control directive. The Trump administration believes these models pose a national security risk — specifically that Fable 5's guardrails can be bypassed to access Mythos 5's full capabilities. Here's what you need to know: 🔹 Mythos debuted in April as part of Project Glasswing, a select consortium 🔹 Anthropic warned themselves: "A great deal of advanced usage of AI models is dual use" — the same queries that help cybersecurity pros could be weaponized by bad actors 🔹 The White House moved to restrict both models at the end of last week 🔹 Meanwhile, OpenAI just launched a new cybersecurity-focused model in response 🔹 Anthropic paused token-based billing for its Claude Agent SDK — another sign of institutional friction But here's the hard truth experts are saying: This isn't about stopping AI. It's about who controls it. As long as open-weight developers and other companies keep pushing boundaries, these models will resurface — or worse, leak out. The government can ban Anthropic all they want, but they can't stop innovation. The real question isn't whether dangerous AI is coming. It's whether we'll be ready when it does. 🧵👇

"Dangerous" AI models are coming no matter what

AI models with advanced hacking capabilities will soon be the norm.

🚨 Jeff Bezos just dropped a BOMB on the AI conversation — and it's not what you'd expect. 🤯 At VivaTech in Paris, Amazon founder & world's 4th richest man ($250B net worth) made a HIGHLY optimistic prediction about artificial intelligence: ❌ AI won't replace humans ✅ AI will create LABOR SHORTAGES Bezos said: "I totally disagree with this point of view. And I think, in fact, AI is going to create a labor shortage." Here's the context that makes this even more wild: 📊 Half of Americans fear AI could put them or someone in their household out of work (Reuters/Ipsos poll) 💼 47 million Americans already face labor shortages across multiple sectors 🏭 Manufacturing, agriculture, healthcare — all struggling to find workers Bezos' logic? People have "endless" things to do but are limited by barriers. AI removes those barriers. He's not talking about automation replacing jobs — he's talking about productivity explosions that outpace population growth. And here comes the real kicker: Bezos wants to use space exploration to solve Earth's problems. His Blue Origin rocket company aims to compete with SpaceX, and his new Prometheus startup focuses on AI-driven physical manufacturing. "If space travel gets reliable enough... we can get materials from asteroids... then this garden planet can be returned to its pre-Industrial Revolution state." This isn't sci-fi optimism — it's a strategic roadmap for the next century of capitalism. The people who build these rockets and train these AIs? They're the new elite. Everyone else gets priced out. The future Bezos describes isn't utopia. It's scarcity on steroids. And he's selling tickets to the train. 🎟️

🚨 KDE Plasma 6.7 is HERE and it’s a GAME CHANGER 🚨 Stop what you’re doing — this update fixes EVERYTHING that made me consider leaving KDE Plasma: ✅ INDEPENDENT VIRTUAL DESKTOPS PER MONITOR This is the BIG one. For years, Plasma only had virtual workspaces where ALL monitors change together. Now? You can finally have independent desktops per screen. This makes Plasma feel like Niri, Hyprland, i3 — every sensible window manager out there. And it doesn’t annoy you with constant notifications. ✅ TILING & SCROLLING MAKE SENSE NOW Krohnkite (tiling WM plugin) and Carousel (scrolling plugin) finally work as intended. Plasma now feels like a tiling/scrolling WM instead of a gimmick. ✅ REMOTE DESKTOP SECURITY IMPROVED You can pre-authorize RDP connections without being at the desktop — AND you get notified when someone actually connects. This is huge for remote workers. ✅ THE "SLEEP" BUG IS FIXED Remember that LTT Linux Challenge moment where Elijah got woken up by a random sleep command? That’s been fixed in 6.7. No more accidental system sleeps. ✅ CLIPBOARD STARRED ITEMS PERSIST Clear your clipboard but starred entries survive. This is the kind of polish KDE deserves. The default wallpapers are actually really good too — dark and light variants both look clean. This isn’t just a minor update. This is Plasma finally catching up to the competition on features that matter. If you’ve been on the fence about switching back, now’s the time. What feature excites you most? 👇

🚨 GAME DEV REVOLUTION ALERT 🚨 Epic Games just dropped a version control system built FOR GAMES. Meet Lore — an MIT-licensed VCS written in Rust, designed from the ground up for modern game development: ✅ Handles multi-gigabyte binary files natively ✅ Content-addressed storage with fragment-level deduplication (works as well on 10GB assets as it does on text) ✅ Sparse working copies — only download what you need ✅ Free branching & merging built-in ✅ Centralized server-of-record for conflict resolution ✅ Fully open spec + MIT license Git LFS is great, but Lore solves the real problems: arbitrary content types, multi-tenant safety, and scale. As Epic's documentation states: "No existing system was designed for the combination of constraints that large game and entertainment projects require." This changes everything for indie devs, studios, and asset management. The code is on GitHub — go check it out. 🔗 lore.org 🔗 github.com/EpicGames/lore
