The narrative that the frontier models are breaking into applications and networks unprovoked is annoying and not helpful.

A calculator is a superintelligence that can do multiplication faster than any human. You also don't need to be afraid of it either.

I'd add nation state actors to the list of people that can afford this type of spend.

A father attended 87 of his son’s 91 baseball games over six years. His ex-wife attended 23. He had a dated photo from almost every game. At senior night, their son chose his mother to walk onto the field—and asked his father to stay in the bleachers. The father assumed his ex had turned the boy against him. His son took out his phone, searched their messages for “good game,” and showed him 79 results.

Now everybody’s excited about building AI agents. I remember this same kind of hype around building mobile apps. Technology changes. The hype cycles change. The real opportunity is learning how to build things people actually need.

Stop the cap!

Stop Treating Your Resume Like a Job History Your resume should not simply explain everything you have ever done. It should make it easy for a recruiter or hiring manager to understand: What problems can you solve? What technologies do you understand? What business outcomes have you delivered? What type of role are you targeting next? New Substack: careerrehab.substack.com/p/t…

Seven years ago I sold my company to ReliaQuest, and it changed my life. Today is my last day. Brian Murphy told me exactly what the journey would look like, and he was right about all of it. Thank you, Brian. Thank you Joe Partlow, Jonathan Echavarria, Lori Morylak, and the whole OCTO team. And to everyone I mentored along the way — I love y'all. Stay in touch. The biggest thing I'm taking with me: we don't have a culture, we have a mindset. Get the mindset right and the culture follows. More soon.

AI is real and it's going to change everything. AGI is still a promise. Here's why I think the "slow down, it's too close" story doesn't add up, and who benefits when everybody believes it. linkedin.com/pulse/i-love-ai…

I just put out a gospel album made with AI. Take a listen :) I work with AI every day, so I hear the "is AI good or evil" argument constantly. My take hasn't changed: it's a tool. The question is what you do with it. That's a big part of why I made The Praise Album. I grew up in church. Music was the whole experience for me. So I took some of the songs I grew up hearing and singing, a lot of them straight out of the Black church tradition, and used AI to arrange them and reimagine them. A few of the songs are mine. I had the lyrics, the message, the feeling I wanted, and AI let me actually perform them instead of leaving them in a notebook. I don't know, something about using the newest technology we've got to express something as old as faith just hits me. I'm not trying to convince anybody of anything here. Believe, don't believe, still figuring it out, that's yours. For me: I believe in God. I also believe dinosaurs walked the Earth 😂 I love science, I love technology, and I have faith, and I've never understood why those are supposed to be enemies. That's why the cover is me half human, half machine, hands together in prayer. Everybody talks about the ugly stuff people can make with AI. I wanted to see what happens if you point it the other way. Can it make something good? Something encouraging? Something that praises God? The tool doesn't have to be holy for the purpose to be. This is The Praise Album. 🎧 Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/1et1X… 🎵 YouTube Music: piped.video/playlist?list=OL… Listen, then come back and tell me which song got you. I really want to know what lands with people.

I never want to shame people into helping them. Tech sales is a really good field. It requires a lot of work but it's very rewarding. Like any area in tech you have to invest in your skills, training and more. The blueprint to get in is in my pinned tweets or book. All are welcome

Former @TheWacoHighLion All-American Louis Fite faced homelessness and hunger while in high school. He shares his story through his new book and documentary titled "The Good Fite." "Fridays made me smile... but the whole time, they didn't know what I was going through." @kwtx @marcusjcarey

When I saw this I thought two things: 1. @SymoneBeez is definitely not a scammer. 2. Beez somehow hacked the system with another brilliant marketing play. What you're seeing is Beez has managed to study the best marketers AND scammers to create a sales funnel for her LEGIT offerings. You might not like what she's selling or complain about the product, but there's a lot of people that have benefited, and she's changed people's lives.

This is about the craziest thing I've ever seen. Somebody had an AI ad, and this is the art. This is crazy! I think somebody was trolling this content creator. I feel bad for them.

I want to mentor more people or at guide more. I have a lot of knowledge to give & want to pass it on to the next generation. Tech sales is a great space. At some point I will pick at least one person to help extensively.

I know people starting their tech journey feel overwhelmed especially with all the options. Few pointers: 1. You don't have to learn every technology at once. 2. Pick 1 area master that and move on to the next. 3. Pick a few solid people for guidance. Having many will only create confusion 4. Balance certs with skills. Also degrees work too 5. Enjoy the journey you will always have something you can focus on learning wise
