lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard

Yep; I think people are underestimating the extent to which AI might improve the productivity of people who create problems as well as people who solve them.

This is what makes us a great country, right here.

Well my son only seeing wins when we go to see Albion play had to en at some point ffs

"the definition of a consultant is someone who borrows your watch to tell you the time", well maybe, but if you had a watch and you were asking what the time was, that has to be at least partly on you.

every time i see a white guy in their fifties radicalized by the twitter algorithm into racism and extremism i think about how it's a total failure of the youtube algorithm to instead radicalize him into home brewing, elaborate A/V setups, or DIY solar

Brand safety disaster imminent...

I’m speaking at @brightonSEO US this September at its brand new home of the Convention Center. There is still limited time (today) to enter for a complimentary day pass. 👉 forms.gle/oNbwn72FYDL7... #brightonSEO

If *Uber* rolled out a 'Passing Fancies' tab alongside the cab and the eats function where you could upload photos of any person, regardless of age, and stimulate them in varying states of undress, would MPs say 'but I can't get Roti King on Deliveroo'?

And the England cricket team - who did NOT get whitewashed

Food $200 Data $150 Rent $800 Mattresses $638,000 Utility $150 someone who is good at the economy please help me budget this. my family is dying

This is very much worth your time.

Some great charts on #AI from the Wall Street Journal. t.ly/xvvbw "AI products would have to create an additional $650 billion a year, indefinitely, to give investors a reasonable 10% annual return. That’s more than 150% of Apple’s yearly revenue"

A radio programme like the Shipping Forecast but it’s called Bin Day and it just reads out every single council in the country’s bin schedule

Even a simple factoid like this gets overlooked, but it was not long ago that *everyone* directly knew multiple examples of people taken away by this at something preposterous like age 22

Who buys a half and half for (not technically) a derby

Still think they should do an edit of traitors where you as an audience member don’t know who the traitors are

Of course they would

“Atlas chugged” 💀 Joe Wilkins, you win the internet futurism.com/future-socie...

No. Your Twitter traffic did NOT double overnight. What happened? Twitter's been stagnating/declining since 2023 The growth team growth hacked (making links auto-open in webview) They hope marketers will fall for it & pay more attention again. But, it's nothing more than smoke & mirrors.

⚡ Want to speak at #brightonSEO or #HeroConf in 2026? 🎤 We’ve opened our call for pitches for both our UK and San Diego editions and we’re looking for talks that go beyond “How AI is changing SEO/PPC.”

so @matteowong.bsky.social & I wrote on data centers: arguably the most important buildings in the world & are, in a way, holding the economy hostage. Byzantine financial instruments, private equity, depreciating tech, hype, $trillion valuations. it’s all there. an ai crash prob starts here.

Can't wait for the Brighton admin to post Fabian Hurzeler's behind the scenes team talk from the Manchester United game #BHAFC

Would you like me to include a new deck missed from this list? Send it my way here, leave the URL in the comments. This will be sent tomorrow in tomorrow's #SEOFOMO 🙌 PS: Thanks to Jeroen Stikkelorum from SEO Brein for his help in putting this list together! You rock 💪

Odd timing, but I’d love to connect with folks experienced in RAG and vector databases.

ChatGPT’s new Atlas browser doesn’t just see what you read — it remembers it. @eff.org’s Lena Cohen showed me it even logged “memories” of her looking for *abortion care* and her doctor’s name. Out-surveils even Chrome. My @washingtonpost.com column: wapo.st/49bOcVC

An OpenAI executive said GPT-5 found solutions to 10 "previously unsolved" math problems when in reality all it did was find online references to places where people had already solved them techcrunch.com/2025/10/19/o...

Exclusive: Anthropic spent $2.66 billion on Amazon Web Services in the first three quarters of 2025, around 100% of their estimated revenue. Its costs appear to increase with their revenue, showing little path to profitability. www.wheresyoured.at/costs/

Me at the lad will be at the Amex this arvo!

Sam Altman went from “AI will cure cancer" to "ChatGPT porn" in less than a month

this is beautiful theatre

So many billions spent on the build out of infrastructure for a product that hardly anyone is willing to pay to use. pivot-to-ai.com/2025/07/04/o...

I felt crazy seeing people write about this because I was 100% sure they did before, and wouldn't you know it: back in March 2023 OpenAI launched "ChatGPT Plugins" that would " help ChatGPT access up-to-date information, run computations, or use third-party services." openai.com/index/chatgp...

[Listening to the Taylor Swift album at 2.5x so I can get this review out before everyone else] I have to say, her pitch is too high on every single song. Disappointing. Incredible breath control singing that fast though

Every day is “Zorp Inc given 3 trillion dollars to launch Blooper Quarks in an effort to create the first artificial intelligence in applesauce manufacturing, universal healthcare still an impossible pipe dream”

you do have to admire OpenAI's chutzpah for holding a gun to the global economy, stacking dubious deal on dodgy evaluation, and telling the world: this is going to work or we're taking you all down with us

Even Jane Austen had to put up with Those Guys www.ft.com/content/bdcd...

I really want OpenAI to put out those Altman-grade vanity metrics about the “thousands of hours” of video generated by Sora 2 so that I can immediately take it to the Azure pricing for Sora and estimate what they’ve burned. I bet they lose like a billion dollars in the year just from this app

*OpenAI said ChatGPT handled 1B prompts per day in Dec. By July that # was 2.5B prompts *Much of that growth comes from API calls *A Harvard/OpenAI study found 21.3% of prompts are “search-like.” That’s roughly 66M search-intent prompts * Google handled 5T searches in 2024, or about 14B per day

Got my performance review.
