My experience with Claude:
Me:
I can’t find the document [you produced and aluded to].
Claude:
Confirmed: it doesn’t exist. I linked to that file and never wrote it. That’s the third time this session.

A sponsor will 6x match donations for 24 hours for the POTS/EDS/ME-CFS/Long COVID/Fibromyalgia/MCAS/etc project (ie if you donate $10 the project gets $70, $50 = $350, $100 = $700, up to $2k = $14k in total) artizen.fund/index/p/open-po…
I’ve had a few people reach out to support bringing this project which is why I’m posting this here. All support and engagement is so very appreciated 🙏🏼
For example, your engagement with my last post made it reach some awesome researchers, clinicians, and other projects that are down to collaborate! So thank you and thank you for sharing your personal stories, ideas, and interest in this project. All of your perspectives are needed to know what answers should be prioritized first.
Also for context, Anthropic is providing compute credits to enable the work. It is not a general grant to support other costs and these credits don’t kick in until the end of the month, so I am self-funding it in the meantime.

Applications are now open for the 2026 Paradigm Fellowship: a 4-day retreat for young people who are obsessively good at something technical.
For our fourth year, we're expanding to welcome builders across every frontier — AI, robotics, energy, bio, prediction markets, or something we haven't thought of.
Last year's cohort came from 10 countries. Some were undergrads, some were dropouts, some were founders, some came from OpenAI, SpaceX, Citadel, and Kalshi.
The format is simple: firesides, whiteboarding sessions, and time to hack. What makes it special is what happens in between, and after. Fellows have met cofounders, started companies, and gone on to raise from Paradigm and others.
I was a fellow before joining Paradigm, the retreat was a transformative trip for me, and I met some of my closest friends through the program.
Apply by June 8th. Retreat runs August 12–15th.

🦔 Meta contractors in Kenya told Swedish newspapers they're being asked to review intimate footage from Ray-Ban AI glasses, including people undressing, using the bathroom, watching porn, and filming sex. One contractor said users often don't realize they're still recording when they set the glasses down. Meta sold 7 million pairs in 2025, up from 2 million in 2023-2024 combined.
Users can't use the AI features without agreeing to share data with Meta's servers, and the terms of service bury the fact that humans may manually review your footage. One annotator said "if they knew about the extent of the data collection, no one would dare to use the glasses."
My Take
This is the Google Home story again but worse. At least with cameras in your house, you know where they are. These are glasses you wear on your face that keep recording when you take them off and set them on your nightstand. And the footage goes to contractors overseas who are paid to watch and label it for AI training. One worker described seeing a man leave the room, then his wife come in and change clothes. People forget the camera is still on.
Meta buries all of this in terms of service nobody reads. The product is marketed as a cool way to capture your life and interact with AI. The reality is strangers in Kenya watching you undress so they can annotate the footage to make Zuckerberg's AI better. Seven million people bought these last year. I'd bet almost none of them understood what they were actually agreeing to.

Today I'm excited to officially announce LAVA - an early-stage fund backing exceptional founders building the financial plumbing and trust tools for the African market.
My journey from @borderlessaf to magma and now LAVA has been guided by one conviction: Africa's unique market dynamics make it the perfect breeding ground for Web3's most practical and scalable applications.
We've already backed 9 startups led by amazing founders, including @honeycoinapp, @OnboardGlobal, @kotanipay, @getliquidapp, @MentoLabs, @cngn_co, @accrueHQ, @0xshield3, and @paycrest.
