I believe platforms like Meta and X have a major long-term advantage in AI because they sit on something just as valuable as compute: real-time human behavior data. They don’t just see what people search for. They see what people stop on, ignore, share, argue with, follow, buy into, and come back to. That UI interaction data creates a continuous feedback loop showing what actually captures human attention and how people respond to information. The most powerful AI may not simply be the model with the most parameters. It may be the system with the deepest, freshest understanding of how humans behave. That is where platforms like Meta and X could have an enormous advantage.

“Regulate AI for the American people?” 🤔 My question is: why is restricting the tool becoming such a priority when Americans are dealing with problems directly affecting their lives right now? Healthcare costs. Housing. Food. Energy. Inflation. The national debt. AI certainly creates new challenges, but AI itself is a tool. If someone uses AI to commit fraud, steal, threaten someone, violate privacy, hack a system, or commit another crime, hold that person accountable under the law and address specific gaps in the law where they actually exist. Why should millions of Americans have their access to an emerging technology restricted because someone might misuse it? And America does not develop technology in isolation. Other countries will continue researching and building AI regardless of what restrictions the United States places on its own citizens and companies. That creates a question I don’t hear discussed nearly enough: Are we protecting Americans from AI—or potentially putting Americans at a disadvantage by restricting their ability to understand, build, compete with, and benefit from it? We’ve seen throughout history that simply prohibiting or heavily restricting something does not make demand, misuse, or illegal activity disappear. Deal with the crime. Deal with the misuse. Deal with the individual responsible. But think very carefully before treating the tool itself as the criminal. AI isn’t making these decisions.

The trend is hard to ignore. 🌍🔥 2023 was the second-hottest year on record, 2024 was the hottest, and 2025 ranked third. Now, through August, 2026 is running as the second-warmest year on record so far—and August tied the hottest month ever measured globally. If 2026 finishes near the top, we’ll be looking at four consecutive years of extraordinary global heat. At some point, a pattern deserves our attention.

Truth instead of counter-propaganda. Evidence instead of outrage. Peace instead of hostility. Awareness instead of reaction. Persistence without losing your integrity.

Is this the facial expression you'd expect of someone gravely concerned about AI threatening human extinction in the next 12 months?

Un hombre puede estar despierto hasta las 2 de la mañana, despertarse a las 6, estar endeudado, solo, y aun así tener fe en que un día todo saldrá bien si sigue intentándolo. Esto es ser un hombre.
