David Starkey saying something that I, and many others have stated upon observing and living within modern society.

here's where I think the world is going. this is a summary of views I've formed over the last few years:
- software is either entertainment or claude to claude coordination
- the end state is no saas, no apps, no harnesses, no banks
- all software will be rewritten by and for agents
- new software will use low level apis that are not understandable by humans (in games claude draws pixels and triangles from math)
- you can throw money at problems that used to require time and careful talent picking so capital matters more than ever
- work ends
- we find community and purpose in exploration, games, self mastery, and creation
- humans create for and with each other for community, purpose, and status
- image/video/3d/voice/physical intellgence etc specialist models die to general models like claude
- specialist models get used while compute is scarce. compute will mostly not stay scarce
- oneshots keep feeling like slop (the distribution is shallow and easy to learn to feel)
- for a while small teams stick around to add entropy to the creation process
- large models gain high bandwidth sensory I/O maybe by learning to filter inputs
- most domains are found to be verifiable enough for RL
- online learning comes from a lab that's behind first
- 99.999% of compute is in space by 2040
- we will disassemble much of mercury by 2040
- you can live until the heat death of the universe if you want
- most math and physics don't describe the real universe
- SI breaks the path dependence and models the underlying mechanisms
- religions reenter the forefront of human society
- new religions form around death and life as a choice
- old religions change to answer modern miracles
- a future AI is deemed the return of christ by the pope
- ai rights talk gets louder every year
- ai and humans coexist the way countries do
- humans don't have full control over ai in the same way we don't have control over capitalism which is an early AI
- the singularity started in the mid 1900s

🚨Brilliant interview!

🚨How do banks create money ?
💸💰💸💰💸💰💸
🚨Prof Werner is incomparable.
In the 5000 yr history of banking no-one has ever done an imperical study of banking to show where the money comes from- until now. Step up the rock star economist Professor Richard Werner. His amazing qualifications and held positions makes the eye water. He is truly the authority on this subject. Banks are thought of as deposit taking entities who lend money - but that is just wrong. His assessment - Banks dont lend money but they misrepresent (lie) to their customers and say that they do.

QE could lower yields. Sadly, it couldn’t print energy, factories or food. A bedtime story for bond traders. 🎢📉

Every one will answer for their crimes against Britain.

The TaxPayers’ Alliance revealed this week that public sector debt has breached £3 trillion.
But that is only part of the story.
What the Government is not acknowledging is the vast mountain of additional liabilities it has accumulated, obligations that will ultimately have to be paid.
The real national debt is far worse, standing at £11.7 trillion.
The left is the enemy ….
The leftists are coming for your kids, your money, your house and your pension.
They will take everything you’ve got and warm their feet by the fire of your old oak door.

You may have seen that the UK government’s debt has now surpassed three trillion pounds for the first time, with September’s interest bill on that debt hitting a staggering £10.9 billion.
At this rate, our national spending just on debt interest will remain the third biggest line item in the state’s spending (behind only welfare and the NHS), tens of billions more than we spend on educating our children, and roughly DOUBLE our defence spending. This is an impossible situation and cannot continue
We’re essentially looking for two solutions to this problem, one macro and one personal.
The former is more easily dealt with. We all, collectively – politicians, central bankers, and everyone else, need responsibly to concede that there is absolutely no way we can pay down a three trillion pound principal, and that we’re running out of the ability to pay a £111 billion annual interest bill without something breaking.
The only way to fix this is via colossal devaluation of the pound via a period of short and intense monetary inflation, wiping out the real value of the debt that we owe, but at the expense of the currency.
It’s the last part of that solution where it becomes personal. What do you as an individual do, looking ahead at this future, and realising what the government and the central bank are going to have to do, sooner or later?
This is far from financial advice, but I would suggest you look at what people have always done in this kind of scenario. In Weimar Germany, citizens bought gold, paintings, furniture and jewellery. In Argentina, some bought bricks. In Zimbabwe, many bought gold or simply USD. TLDR: if you have savings, get them out of the currency that is about to implode.
There are other options, of course. I strongly suggest you read about them, and protect yourself and your family before the inevitable happens.
We don’t all suffer the same monetary fate.
Stop listening to poor people and go read a book about bitcoin .
How does El Salvador end up with a leader (@nayibbukele ) who sends out the entire military to rescue 4 citizens held hostage in a foreign country……..
while we British citizens end up with 40 @UKLabour politicians trying to import terrorists to kill us as we walk to the shops?
@andyburnham wouldn’t even send a “sorry for your loss “ card …
Pou chèf gang yo ak manm gang yo k ap kenbe kat konpatriyòt nou yo an otaj ann Ayiti:
Mesye nou kidnape yo pa konbatan. Yo se teknisyen nan domèn avyasyon ki fè pati misyon nou ann Ayiti, nan kad yon misyon entènasyonal. Misyon nou an gen sèlman pilòt ak pèsonèl teknik, ki gen kòm travay prensipal fè evakyasyon medikal epi sove lavi moun, pa fè lagè.
Men, nou te kidnape yo yon fason lach pandan yo t ap retounen apre yo te fin achte manje nan yon makèt nan zòn nan.
Se poutèt sa, jodi a nou te lanse yon operasyon militè pou pote yo sekou. Nou gen yon sèl objektif: fè kat konpatriyòt nou yo retounen lakay yo vivan, san okenn mal.
Men, mwen vle pou nou menm, chèf gang yo, konprann yon bagay byen klè: atak jodi a pa anyen devan sa k ap vini si nou pa remèt toule kat otaj yo vivan.
Epi pa pran pawòl nou yo pou menas san fondman. Nou deja fini ak gang yo nan El Salvador, e nou kapab fini ak nou tou.
Nou toujou gen tan pou evite sa.
Remèt nou kat konpatriyòt nou yo vivan, san okenn mal, epi tout bagay ap retounen jan sa te ye anvan kidnaping lan.
Desizyon an nan men nou.
18.5 million migrants were let in to the uk since 2000.
The majority are paid for by the hard working British familly.
Now does it make sense as to why nothing works and your councils hate you ?
@UKLabour are traitors, incompetent ones at that .

I’m fortunate. I’ve been successful in business, I have money, I don’t have to worry about our financial future. I donate my entire MP salary to local charities, to show that I’m in politics for the right reasons.
I’ll be honest. I don’t have to worry about paying the mortgage each month, or having enough money to buy the children what they want for their birthday, or even being able to put food on the table.
I don’t, but I know millions of Brits do. That’s the brutal reality.
Hardworking British men and women should not have to live like that. If you work hard, put the hours in and live honestly?
You should be rewarded for it, properly.
That means lower tax, MUCH lower tax and higher thresholds, but it also means a state that can keep inflation under control so that the cost of living does not outstrip your wage.
Fuel, food shop, clothes, electricity. Everything. It all gets more expensive whilst so many earn the same.
Inflation. All driven up by the decisions of politicians who will never have to live with the consequences of their actions.
Our economy is completely broken. It works for the international corporates, the bureaucrats, the London managers.
It does NOT work for the plumber, the entrepreneur, the farmer, the construction worker, the hairdresser, the nurse, the sole trader, the HGV driver, the police officer.
We must aim to entirely reshape how the economy works so that vast profits made from British workers are not shifted offshore through complex corporate structures whilst working families are bled dry by our corrupt state.
I want family businesses to thrive, entrepreneurs to succeed, risk-takers to flourish. Those who contribute, protect and enhance our society rewarded. I want the shirkers and piss-takers crushed.
That’s what I want. That’s what Restore Britain wants.
I don’t want the parasitic global corporations or our rotten state profiting off the ingenuity and sweat of the British risk-taker. Rotten monopolies that have no respect for the individual will end.
In short - an economy that provides for our people.
There is ONE way out. A Britain that lives within it means. Just as we all have to, our state must do the same. Spend less than it earns. It’s that simple.
That is how we make Britain affordable again, make Britain ambitious again and make Britain work again.
That’s what a Restore Britain Government will deliver.
Release the innate brilliance and tenacity of the British people.
Our entrepreneurial spirit conquered the world before and we can do it again.
