NEW: President Trump reacts to recent, concerning reports about AI and answers whether the industry should be more regulated. "We're leading China in AI, we're the most sophisticated country in the world. And frankly, I want to keep it that way because whoever wins AI, wins."

Saw a fairly popular account say no one is using Qwen 3.8 27b for real production work.. Too many people are still living in the past when it comes to local models. Our little bubble is ahead use that to your advantage!

It really does. My agents have been on autopilot, with me checking in on their work here and there. Once you iron out the skills, you connect them all to create a larger workflow running automatically. The hardest part is finding new things for myself to do.

I pay $20 a month, used 250 million token (last week) and jammed out a ton of work. The thing is, if you know how to code, you know how to instruct the ai to complete the task you need completed. If you know how to code, you don’t need Opus. If you don’t, use ai and learn how

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

Yeah folks, it's gonna be harder in the future to ensure OpenClaw still works with Anthropic models.

A friend of mine showed me his OpenClaw setup. He runs open source models locally on his home computers for easier stuff, but spends ~$200/day on frontier models.

I’ve been using Ollama Pro for a few months and love it. I’ve done so much with it already this week and still have all of this left. I use it every day for just about everything.

This story is completely made up. In fact, when this Fake News published, I was in the Oval Office, where President Trump was meeting with his law enforcement team, including FBI Director Kash Patel. I read the headline to the President and he laughed. He said: “What? That’s totally false. Come on Kash, let’s take a picture to show them you’re doing a great job!” Do not believe the Fake News!
MS NOW EXCLUSIVE: “President Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI director in the coming months, as he and his top aides have grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines Patel has recently generated.” ms.now/news/trump-kash-patel…

If you claimed or suggested you are a US voter and aren’t, you are blocked. However, being from a foreign country is fine as long as you aren’t meddling in US politics.

🚨 BREAKING: FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino SCORCHES Rep. Thomas Massie for insinuating his FBI is "retaliating" against a whistleblower in the J6 pipe bomb investigation Bongino posted RECEIPTS that Massie is IGNORING his call. "This is disgusting, even by the low standards many have for politicians." "You know my number, and you’re free to call me anytime. But it’s easier to tweet and throw BS bombs." "You continue to imply that the Director and I are targeting investigators in the case." "When I spoke with you yesterday a little after 8am ET (screenshots attached), I offered you an in-person brief on our work. We spoke for ten minutes. I called you back a bit after 7:30pm ET to again make that offer. You didn’t answer and have yet to call me back." On pursuing the pipe bomber suspect, Bongino said: "Despite the multitude of challenges we faced, one of our first initiatives was to aggressively pursue a new strategy to investigate the January 6 pipe bomb, terror attack. We brought in new personnel to take a look at the case, we flew in police officers and detectives working as TFOs (task force officers) to review FBI work, we conducted multiple internal reviews, held countless in person and SVTC meetings with investigative team members, we dramatically increased investigative resources, and we increased the public award for information in the case to utilize crowd-sourcing leads."

This app is just a constant black pill and psyop to demoralize people. Not a single day goes by without the right crying about something. Incredible.

We also need to run stronger candidates. Of all the people who lost last night, how many had already lost elections before? Were they pro-MAGA, pro-Trump candidates, or were they individuals the party had already rejected twice? Trump has often said there are winners and there are losers. People who have lost two races should never have been on the ballot for a third loss.

We can, and will, track you down. It’s only a matter of time.
First time ever: the FBI arrested Antifa-aligned anarchist violent extremists and terrorism charges have been brought for the July 4 Prairieland ICE attack in Texas. Under President Trump’s new authorities we’ve made 20+ arrests. No one gets to harm law enforcement. Not on my watch.
