@chamath Chamath PalihapitiyaChamath Palihapitiya has been discussing various topics, including artificial intelligence, job losses, and the current state of society. He believes that recent job losses are not due to AI, but rather companies unwinding excessive hiring fueled by DEI initiatives and low interest rates. He also commented on the value of free speech and his past SPAC deal that was successful.

"To make the math simple the car on the left is $25k. The car on the right is $150k. That said the key question in my mind arent the design choices each made but how regulators will frame their expectations to have a robust safe fully autonomous fleet in their city. I suspect initially they start with licenses for both. And as they collect data it will be incumbent on Tesla to show their error tolerances are as good or better than Waymo. Otherwise it creates a lobbying opportunity for Waymo to convince regulators that increasing the BoM helps increase safety for pedestrians and other drivers."

But what they are really doing is breaking the seal on a trend that will bankrupt the state. The inevitable outcome will be an exodus of the states most talented entrepreneurs who can and will choose to build their companies in less regressive states. All that will be left behind is the middle class. The tax burden then will fall to the middle class because after the richest choose to leave the middle class"

Now 50% of that wealth has left - taking their income tax revenue sales tax revenue real estate tax revenue and all their staffs (and their salaries and income taxes) with them.

"As one accumulates wealth their earnings typically shift radically from income to securities and assets. Said differently they rely less on income and more on equity appreciation. As such if the wealthy wanted to benefit themselves the most in tax policy they would advocate for a lower capital gains tax (or none at all) and modified depreciation or rollover rules not zero income tax. So whenever you see a proposal for zero income tax please try to consider that this benefits lower lower-middle middle and upper middle incomes THE MOST.

"Non Farm Payrolls are total garbage so I asked Grok: Hey Grok go look at the Bureau of Labor Statistics website for their non farm payrolls data. Tell me how many times their original forecasts have been revised since Jan [----]. And of those revisions how many times the data was revised up versus down. Categorize this during the Biden versus Trump presidencies. Bottom line is that BLS isnt so much conspiratorial as it is inadequate in its approach. They are all over the place and add little directional signal. They constantly revise and in both directions. The sampling techniques they use are"

"We have too many colleges graduating kids into suffocating student debt and worthless degrees. Weve created an artificial societal culture that celebrates a BA or Masters or PhD without asking the critical question: In what For America to thrive there should be fewer colleges and college grads for the sake of graduating from college and more people who are economically thriving because they make good decisions upon graduating from high school. This can happen by having the awareness as a society to celebrate the mechanic nurse or electrician as much or more than the Masters because we have"

"Mainstream medias approach is to paint anyone they cant control as corrupt or conflicted. The truth is always the opposite. The individuals arent corrupt. The media is. America deserves the best and brightest from industry taking a few years off to work in government and help make sure we remain the most vibrant country in the world. Just because those people refuse to be in the pocket of the media doesnt mean they deserve to be smeared. π¨ Chamath on Why New York Times Runs Hit Jobs on Non-Establishment Figures The whole point was to get enough chatter so that people like Sacks and other"

"No idea this existed until today. People can make billions ratting out the fraud: What is qui tam Via Gemini: Qui tam is a legal provision that allows a private individual (known as a relator) to file a lawsuit on behalf of the government to recover funds lost to fraud. The term comes from the Latin phrase qui tam pro domino rege quam pro se ipso in hac parte sequitur meaning "he who brings the action for the king as well as for himself." In California these actions are primarily governed by the California False Claims Act (CFCA) which is modeled after the federal version but tailored to"

"This is insane. With no desire to stop the fraud California politicians insist that they will start taxing property and assets of the richest Californians now. When these richest Californians leave which I guarantee they will especially when they understand the extent of the rot the middle class will be the only group left to plug the hole because they are the largest collective taxpayers in the state. A third of community college applicants were fake. $17 billion was spent on High-Speed Rail with no track. $24 billion in homelessness funds disappeared. $32 billion was lost to unemployment"

They wanted $100B from [---] Californian billionaires but $500B in wealth has already fled the state leaving a $25B hole in their plan. And its still only a proposal. Imagine how much more wealth will leave if this actually makes the ballot Why should you care The fine print in the bill allows the California legislature to apply this asset tax to non-billionaires as well whenever they want. Your car home and jewelry would all count. California isnt coming just for the rich. This bill while"

This creates a detente where we each stick to our own hemispheres and leave each other alone. Each of us rely on a few countries for resources know how and capital. Those chosen countries exclusively work with US or China but not both. Every other country in the world then becomes a vassal state of either the US or China.
