What is the joy of the 'simultaneous'?
Shiny, shiny human brains. All you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice, a canteen jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine, the end of the day thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous that happens now. Go. That is just so good.
What health benefits can one egg provide?
Well, according to New Atlas, there's a new study out that says that eating one egg a week lowers heart disease death risk by 29%. Just one egg. All you need is one egg per week. Now, I'm telling you this so you can start saving up. If you put away a little bit every week, eventually you'll be able to afford an egg. And it's really good for you. I recommend canceling your health care.
How is AI evolving in robotics?
and using that money to buy an egg. Same outcome, really. Well, here's some news that might sound nerdy and small to you, but it might be really, really big. The company called Figure, they're making robots that look like humanoids, much like Tesla. And their latest announcement is they're not going to use OpenAI anymore. as the brains of their computer, or the brains of their robot. And that's a big deal because they had an agreement with OpenAI. So they were already in association with OpenAI. But what they found was that OpenAI was great for sort of general purpose stuff, but it wasn't optimized for robots. So somehow, figure made its own AI or found a different one, but they got an AI that's optimized for robots.
And the head of figure is predicting that the world will not be lots of machines filled with generic AI, but rather every device might have its own AI, an AI that's trained on the specifics of what you need to be a robot or something like that. So I don't know if the robot would then not be able to answer general questions. the way an open AI would be. But apparently it's going to give them the ability to roll out an operating robot way faster than if they used a generic AI. So that's coming. Something coming in the next 30 days, they say, that's going to be a big deal. Here's some good news. Every now and then there's a story that just makes you feel good. And this one is the let's call it the conclusion, I hope, of the Daniel Penny story.
What is the significance of Daniel Penny's new job?
You remember Daniel Penny? He tried to save some people in a subway, but unfortunately the person he was holding down died. He was cleared of all that in what I thought was a racially motivated case. But once you go through that kind of thing, it's hard to get your life back together. So here's the good news. He was just offered a job by Andreessen Horowitz. So Mark Andreessen's company with Ben Horowitz. And it's one of the big venture capital companies in Silicon Valley, one of the most famous, noted ones. And they're going to teach him investing. Now, I don't know if that means he's actually going to be making investment decisions, or if it means that he needs to learn what the company does so that he finds his role there.
Because I don't know what background he has to make him a venture capitalist. But on the other hand, maybe it's not that hard to train somebody to be a venture capitalist. It's not like they get most of their or plays right, most of the bats, even by the smartest people, end up being the wrong bat. But they can play the numbers, make it work. So that's great. That is nothing but good news. And I love the fact that Andreessen Horowitz stepped up to just right that little bit of wrong in the world. And I'd like to thank them personally. So Andreessen Horowitz, nicely done. I think the country, or at least a big part of the country, just appreciates that. It just tied up that story just the way it needed to be.
Because you want to know that somebody who put their, risked their own neck, which is what he did, you want to know that if somebody risks their neck for other people and doesn't ask anything in return, can still you know, have a good outcome. So, wow, it made me feel good. I guess Trump's going to keep things interesting today by allegedly he's going to sign some kind of executive order that would ban biological males from women's sports. Now, we don't know how deeply that goes. Would that include professional sports? And would he even be able to do that? Would it include All high school and college? We don't know. But we'll see.
