To the next wave of defense tech builders, and the El Segundo founders ready to scale:
Irvine has room for you.
• 7.75% sales tax on the equipment you'll buy
• Flat license fee, no tax on revenue
• A city concierge for defense firms
Your next chapter starts here. 🇺🇸

Intelligence becoming free means the bottleneck isn't IQ anymore. It's agency. Anyone can go 1→n now. Going 0→1, building the institution nobody has built yet, is the last real edge.
when u realize ASI is here, we are in the singularity, nobody can stop it, politics doesn’t matter anymore, you can just build parallel institutions and ignore the failed ones, software is writing software, robots are building robots, intelligence is becoming free, super abundance is coming, the future is going to be absolutely insane, we won
Third worldism in action: facing a $150M deficit, the county is turning down a $5B project to keep a mall lot that's been abandoned for 24 years.
25,000 signatures for $0 in revenue.
I guarantee the same people will be complaining about underfunded social programs next.

Norway now has more than 2,000 underwater AI laser robots shooting lice off its salmon
they're made by a company called Stingray, and they already guard more than 50 million salmon and trout 24/7
the reason is sea lice, tiny parasites that latch onto salmon and feed on them
as few as 11 can kill a small fish, and one pen can hold 150,000 salmon
the usual fix is pumping the fish out and blasting them with warm water or water jets to knock the lice off
but the handling is so rough that Norway's fish health report ranks it the top cause of death in full-grown farmed salmon
so instead, Stingray puts a robot inside the pen that hunts lice one at a time, all day:
> two cameras watch every salmon that swims past
> AI checks two frames to make sure it's really a louse
> then a green laser fires from up to 2 meters away
> the salmon's scales reflect the beam, so the fish swims off fine and the louse is dead
we now live in a world where AI lasers do pest control on your dinner lmao
As an entry level spearfisherman, I love this.
Ikejime isn't culinary superstition. Destroying the brain immediately stops the stress response, limits lactic acid buildup, and delays rigor mortis. Bleeding the fish removes the blood that drives off flavors and early spoilage. You get better texture, cleaner flavor, and longer shelf life.
It's also a far more humane death than suffocating on a deck.
The barrier has always been skill. The brain sits in a slightly different spot on every species, and learning that takes time. Shinkei builds that knowledge into a machine and makes it repeatable across entire fleets.
Better fish, less waste, more respect for the animal. Fantastic idea.
we have a winner for the most absurd AI startup ever
this Peter Thiel backed company uses AI robots to stab fish in the brain so they taste better and last up to 3x longer
it's called Shinkei and it modernizes a centuries-old Japanese technique
dozens of Michelin-star restaurants are already lining up to buy the fish
here's how it works:
> the problem is when a fish gets caught, it usually just suffocates on the boat
> that stress floods the meat with hormones and lactic acid, which hurts the flavor and texture
> the old Japanese fix for this was spiking the fish through the brain right after the catch, which stops all that
> but doing it by hand is impractical for most American fishing crews
> so Shinkei built a fridge-sized robot that sits right on the boat's deck
> the crew feeds in a fish and AI identifies the exact species, so it knows exactly where the brain and gills are
> the robot then drives the spike through the brain and cuts near the gills in about 7 seconds
> the fish goes into an ice slurry so the blood drains out
> so the fish doesn't sit there stressing out, and that tasty flavor and texture is preserved
example number 5,392,417 of how AI can be applied to literally anything
ALT A gloved fisherman on a boat feeds a live salmon head-first into the steel intake of a white Shinkei Systems robot, with the ocean behind.

Thank you @DeportEveryone we actually had a very fruitful study session on data centers. I plan on visiting every data center in Irvine and giving a full presentation of them for X

I’m joining the war on Artificial Intelligence.
On the side of Artificial Intelligence.
Surrendering the future of innovation to China is strategic suicide.

It is my Great Honor to endorse America First Patriot, Marty O'Donnell, who is running to represent the incredible people of Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District.
Marty is running against Susie Lee, a true Radical Left Extremist who does not represent the Values of Southern Nevada. Susie Lee wants Open Borders, Men playing in Women’s Sports, Transgender for Everyone, Defund the Police, and she wants to take away your Second Amendment, meaning, your guns. She voted AGAINST the Biggest Tax Cut in History (including NO TAX ON TIPS!), and fought ferociously to knock out Rural Healthcare, a big factor in Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District.
In contrast, Marty O’Donnell is a World Class Composer and Entrepreneur who knows the America First Policies required to Create GREAT Jobs, Cut Taxes and Regulations, Promote NO TAX ON TIPS, Advance MADE IN THE U.S.A., Unleash American Energy DOMINANCE, and Champion our Nation’s Golden Age. As your next Congressman, Marty will fight tirelessly to Keep our Border SECURE, Stop Migrant Crime, Ensure LAW AND ORDER, Strengthen our Brave Military/Veterans, and Protect our always under siege Second Amendment.
Marty O'Donnell has my Complete and Total Endorsement to be the next Representative from Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District. GET OUT AND VOTE FOR MARTY — HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!

Exciting stuff coming out of their labs 🔥
today, we introduce a little mischief to the world.
for four years, we’ve been brewing real brain cells on electrodes to understand how they compute. now, we’ve turned those discoveries into a video model anyone can use.
from 0.5¢ a second, mischief 1 is at least 5x faster than its base and the cheapest image-to-video model on @fal and @OpenRouter. soon to be on @awscloud marketplace.
it’s not a delusion anymore. biocompute is real, commercial and this is just the beginning.
happy halloween.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This is a post-train of Wan, an open weights model, and is not running on actual neurons.
The authors claim they used “insights from the neurons” to make the model cheaper, but many post-trained video models exist with no relation to bio-compute. unite.ai/tbc-mischief-n…
