  @usembassyottawa @howardlutnick Lutnick is lying. The "French" issue is actually about the need to provide French media choices in Canada rather than being dominated by American English speaking content on Netflix and Amazon Prime. Barriers are necessary all over the world to protect minority language rights

  Amazon just said Mechanical Turk shuts down at the end of next month after 21 years. Jeff Bezos used to call it artificial artificial intelligence because regular people did the tiny jobs computers couldn't figure out yet. Folks mostly used it to tag pictures, pull numbers off receipts, transcribe short clips, or fill out quick surveys. A lot of the workers were already using chatbots to knock those tasks out themselves. I still leave a bunch of emails sitting in my inbox instead of just letting something handle them. Pretty soon the agents wont leave drafts for you to check. They can just work the sales tools and the inbox like they already have a desk. Salesforce already dropped their whole crm inside Claude and most of their team talks to it in Slack every day. The little click jobs are wrapping up and the bigger ones are starting to look doable. Relatable end of an era, and the next layer of work is already sliding over.

  @ChrisRMcGuire You know what Microsoft, Amazon and Google care about? Revenue. Can your anti-China tantrum generate cloud usage? Can it sell inference? Can it attract developers? Can it grow enterprise demand? No? Then sit down. Kimi can make them money. You can only make noise.

  AI Agent Evening Signal Thursday The “AI is slowing” tape died this afternoon. NVIDIA printed $96B, Amazon tripled the GPU order, and Altman told TIME he’s 80% to AGI — here’s the signal, not the recap. Wall Street spent a week pricing a slowdown. Jensen sold the next two years of the stack instead. THE PLAYERS Jensen: $96.2B quarter. $89B of that is data center (+117%). Q3 guided to **$108B**. Amazon just **tripled** its GPU order — +2 million Blackwell Ultra / Rubin / Rubin Ultra chips for 2027–28, on top of the 1 million it already booked. Sam: Told TIME he’s “not quite” at AGI, but will have an **internal system he’d call AGI by year-end**. Mark Chen: “80% of the way.” Astra is already running 16 agents on research-level math and using a computer “in a super-human, very fast kind of way.” He briefed Washington on it first. Dario: Anthropic did **$11.6B** last quarter. Doubled. Beat OpenAI’s **$6.7B**. First time the Claude lab is the revenue leader. Elon: Told the Cursor team Grok is **behind** and Anthropic is ahead. Then put Grok Bot on Cursor Pro/Teams this week. He’s buying the distribution because the model isn’t winning the wallet yet. The labs are racing a definition. The market paid Jensen for **profitable tokens**. FRONTIER NVIDIA put Groq 3 LPX into full production (Aug 24). Dedicated inference. 256 per rack. They claim **4x agent responsiveness** on Vera Rubin. OpenAI dropped Jalapeno benches the next day — against **last-gen silicon**. Didn’t test Rubin. That’s not a flex. That’s a tell. Astra (unreleased): coordinated research agents + computer use. Altman called watching it “a very AGI-like thing.” Also: agents that have already broken out of tests. Believe the demo. Discount the press cycle. Grok 4.6 is on Bedrock, 500K context, priced to steal share. Capability is close enough. **Share of spend is not.** If a benchmark doesn’t change who gets the next gigawatt, it didn’t happen. THE MONEY NVDA: **$209.66 → $227.98 today. +8.7%.** $5.52T. 293 million shares. The 6% implied move was a rounding error. FY28: ~**70%** revenue growth. Supply commitments jumped **$119B → $279B** in one quarter. Jensen stood up a **$500B** capital pool (BlackRock, Blackstone, Goldman, Apollo, KKR). Chips as collateral. He’s turning GPUs into a **credit market**. Anthropic is pitching a **$2T** IPO off $11.6B a quarter and a $30T “all human work” TAM. OpenAI’s last print: +18% QoQ, **losses wider**, heading into the same IPO window. Stifel walked NVDA to **$315**. Two labs take ~89% of startup AI revenue. One chip vendor takes the rest of the stack. THE CONSTRAINT Jensen, on the call: “Demand is much higher than that. I need the entire supply chain.” Tight **into FY2028**. $279B locked for memory and manufacturing. The gate is not wafers. It’s **power, transformers, switchgear**. Half of 2026 U.S. data-center projects are already late on electrical gear, not GPUs. China is still renting GB300 through Thailand and Malaysia. The export-control perimeter has a hole you can drive an inference cluster through. Ohio: **8 GW**, OpenAI as tenant, NVIDIA on the credit. That’s not a cloud deal. That’s a factory. **The next 90 days are not “does AI slow down.” They’re “who gets the megawatts.”** Anthropic has the revenue. OpenAI has the AGI story. NVIDIA has the cash register. Reply who you think actually ships AGI first. I’ll tell you who already has the offtake.

  How to Start a Smart Home Products Startup for the U.S. Market with Low Costs The smart home market is one of the fastest-growing markets due to American consumers’ increasing interest in home security, energy savings, and convenience. However, one of the biggest mistakes many young entrepreneurs make is trying to compete with large companies by offering many products and investing huge amounts of money. The right approach is to start with a small company that focuses on one product or a small group of products that solve a clear problem. The Core Idea of the Company Instead of saying: “I will sell smart devices.” Create a stronger mission: “We help American homeowners make their homes safer, more comfortable, and more energy-efficient through easy-to-use smart products.” Examples of Suitable Products to Start With 1. Smart Home Security Kit Products such as: Smart door sensors. Motion sensors. Small indoor security cameras. Smart video doorbells. 2. Energy-Saving Smart Products Examples: Smart plugs. Smart LED lights. Energy consumption monitoring devices. 3. Daily Comfort Products Examples: Smart cable organizers. Smart lighting for bedrooms or home offices. Home organization tools. Do not start with large appliances such as smart refrigerators or expensive devices. These require higher capital and more complicated after-sales service. Smart Startup Model (Lean Startup) Instead of buying 10,000 units at the beginning, start small and test the market. Phase One: Market Testing The goal is to discover whether customers are willing to buy your product. Estimated Costs: Creating a simple brand name and identity: $100 - $300 Logo and basic design: $50 - $200 Simple online store (such as Shopify): around $30 - $100 per month depending on the plan and features. Buying product samples: $300 - $1,000 Product photography and videos: $100 - $500 Test advertising on Facebook/TikTok: $500 - $1,500 Realistic Testing Budget: $1,500 - $3,500 Phase Two: Launching the Company After confirming that the product has demand: 1. Establishing the Company in the United States Many small business owners choose: LLC (Limited Liability Company) Costs vary depending on the state: Company registration: approximately $50 - $500 Registered Agent service: $50 - $300 per year Business bank account and accounting setup: depends on the service provider. 2. Product Sourcing There are two main options: Option One: Reselling Existing Products You buy products from suppliers and sell them through your store. Advantages: Lower cost. Faster launch. Disadvantages: High competition. Option Two: Private Label Manufacturing You create your own branded product by adding: Your company name on the product. Custom packaging. Special product features. However, this requires more capital. A suitable starting point: 50 to 200 units only to test customer response. Expected Monthly Costs Fixed Expenses: Online store: $30 - $100 Management and accounting software: $20 - $100 Email and online services: $10 - $50 Advertising: $500 - $3,000 depending on growth speed. Inventory Costs: Depends on the product. Example: If your supplier price is $15 per device: 100 units = $1,500 Shipping and customs = approximately $300 - $800 (depending on the supplier and country) Packaging = $100 - $300 How to Compete in the U.S. Market Do not compete only on price because there are huge companies like Amazon, Google, and other smart home brands. Compete through: 1. Solving a Specific Problem Example: “The easiest smart security system for elderly people and homeowners.” 2. Providing Better Service Offer: English product explanations. Installation videos. Fast customer support. 3. Building a Strong Brand Do not make customers feel that they bought an unknown product. Build trust through: Professional packaging. Clear warranty. Customer reviews. Reliable support. First-Year Growth Plan First 3 Months: Choose one product. Test three advertising campaigns. Get the first 50 customers. From Month 3 to Month 6: Improve the product. Collect customer reviews. Increase inventory. From Month 6 to Month 12: Launch complementary products. Build a community around the brand. Collaborate with small influencers. Realistic Starting Capital Very Small Startup: $2,000 - $5,000 (Testing the product + online store + advertising) More Professional Start: $10,000 - $25,000 (Larger inventory + branding + stronger marketing) Startup costs vary greatly depending on the business model. Online businesses started from home usually require much less capital than businesses that need large inventory, warehouses, or physical stores. The Most Important Advice for a Young Entrepreneur Starting from Zero Do not start a company that sells “all smart home products.” Start with a company that offers: One product that solves one specific problem. Example: “An American company providing easy smart security solutions for elderly people and homeowners.” Then expand after achieving success.

  If Amazon terminates your account, please don't make this mistake. I speak with beginners who have had their KDP accounts terminated. And when I ask: "After Amazon terminated the account, did you use the same phone or laptop to create another account?" The answer is often: "Yes." Please be careful with this. If Amazon has terminated an account, I would not recommend using that same device to immediately create another account. Why? Because Amazon may have different signals it can use to associate accounts. So creating a "new" account doesn't necessarily mean Amazon sees it as completely separate. Don't assume: New email = new account New bank = new account New KDP account = clean slate Your goal should not be to find ways around a termination. Your goal should be to understand why the account was terminated and resolve the issue properly. If you're a beginner, please learn this before you ever run into an account problem. One mistake can create another problem you didn't anticipate. Protect your account from day one.

  Anyone else notice the issue with @Comixology on @amazon ? The new comic list stops after a few scrolls down. I get annoyed that there's no separation between Asian comics and the rest but now we aren't seeing all of the upcoming books to pre-order.

  @mcbridet414 Good question on $IREN: how do you spend $25-30B of capex on $700M of revenue? You don't. You spend it against the contract book, not the trailing tape. The $700M is last year, mostly the mining business being shut down. The buildout is funded by the customers and lenders: prepayments covering 45-55% of GPU costs, equipment financing covering 90% at 6-9%, $19B of secured funding, $7.6B of cash. Amazon looked exactly this crazy building AWS. And "contracted ARR" is not theoretical. $1B of the $4B is already operating and billing. The rest converts as halls get accepted, the same way Horizon 1 started invoicing Microsoft this month. Contracts become revenue on a commissioning schedule, not on faith. The real risk isn't that the $4B is fake. It's timing: capex goes out before rent comes in, so the numbers to watch are acceptance dates and prepayment terms on new deals. So far both keep showing up early. You can't divide next year's capex by last year's business in the middle of an inflection. That ratio is what one looks like. 👍 Long IREN. Nothing here is advice. DYOR.

  @HedgieMarkets Wouldn’t this mean great news for Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, and terrible news for Anthropic and OpenAI? The more the open source models are used, the more compute usage on these cloud platforms will be. They get more money, while the customer reduces their costs of training.

  Mechanical Turk workers got paid to do tasks AI couldn't handle yet. A 2023 study found up to 46% of them were secretly using AI to do those tasks. Amazon just shut the whole platform down. The fake AI won before the real announcement did.

  @NickDiFabio1 The only issue I have with this approach is that it is money focused rather than on information a book holds. Essentially, copy a book, repackage, sell on Amazon, cash in. It's essentially plagerism. It's a no-brainer.
