“Professional failures” AKA “crimes”

Danny Devito as Bilbo Baggins.

I misread “hosts” as “holds” and just thought “strange way to get them to the table but sounds about right.”

Subscriptions and licensing, supposedly.

$12B is just how much money investors put into it. The company’s valuation is $80B. Which is insane.

xAI has raised maybe $12B from investors. And, supposedly, makes $100M/yr.

The valuations are absurd.

I’m surprised the Twitter investors would approve this. Their worthless Twitter stock is now worthless xAI stock. How does that help them?

I guess they’ll try to take xAI public with a massively overpriced IPO.

They could try. They can compel you to open it with Face ID or fingerprint. If that’s turned off they cannot compel you to disclose your passcode. They can seize your phone. They cannot prevent you from entering the country.

They’re probably only going to do it with some kind of suspicion. But that suspicion could be the border protection officer is having a bad day.

How’d they get into his phone? Face or fingerprint?

Make sure you turn off biometrics before traveling. They can’t force you to disclose a passcode.

EDIT: Actually, if you have to travel to the USA, wipe your phone before you leave.

Broadcasting his intention like this really puts a target on his back. He should be more careful… or not, I’ve stocked up on popcorn.
