Chamath is making one of the most important business arguments of 2026. Half of large US companies right now cannot generate returns that exceed their cost of capital, which has normalized back to its long run average of 8 to 11%. Another one in seven companies globally is stuck generating persistent returns between 1 and 5% and most businesses don't have room for error and in this environment walks every frontier AI lab saying the same thing, give us your data, your workflows, your processes and our model will make everything better. And companies by the millions said yes. What they didn't fully account for is what happens on the other side of that door. Every time an employee runs a query through a frontier model API, the prompt goes through external servers, workflows, customer data, pricing logic, internal processes, all of it transmitted through a third party. As Alex Karp said companies are spending on tokens while handing over the exact proprietary advantages that make their business worth owning. Microsoft blocked internal use of Anthropic's Claude Fable 5 but over its 30-day data retention policy and the largest software company in the world decided a frontier model's data handling was too risky for its own employees. A US government action revoked access to another frontier model for foreign nationals overnight. Now here's where the cost math becomes impossible to ignore. Deutsche Bank calculated a roughly 65x cost gap between frontier models like Claude Fable 5 at ~$3.25 per task and open-source alternatives at ~$0.05. For 90% of everyday enterprise tasks, performance is comparable. Open-weight models now match closed frontier systems on core agent tasks at roughly one-tenth the cost, a high-volume deployment that costs $250/day on Claude runs at $12/day on an open-source equivalent. @chamath tested this directly by running a standard enterprise code migration task through an orchestration layer wrapping an open-source model came in 16.4x cheaper than using a frontier model directly.

To the Americans: I've travelled all over the world. I've familiarized myself with many places, and met many people. And I'm a Canadian, although I’m privileged to reside once again in the States. And here's something I've noticed, and it’s a key element of America's continuing greatness: You bloody Americans value success, and you believe in its existence. This is something that doesn't really happen anywhere else in the world. Even in other free democracies—the United Kingdom; Finland, Sweden, and Norway; Australia, New Zealand and Canada; Germany, France, and the Netherlands (great countries all)—a counterproductive cynicism too often reigns. Success is equated with exploitation. Ambition is looked upon with contempt. This happens sometimes in the United States too—particularly among the miserable progressives, who confuse their resentment, ingratitude and unearned skepticism with wisdom. But in your great country, by and large, striving is admired and success celebrated. This means that more people strive and succeed in the US than anywhere else. And it's increasingly obvious. You remain stunningly more innovative and productive than any people anywhere else on the planet. And so I say, as all should who are fortunate enough to live in the western world, let alone America: Thank God for the United States. Thank God for the wisdom of its founders. Thank God for its faith in the free market and in the natural rights of man. Happy birthday, you damn Yankees and Southerners. Long may your admirable country dominate the world. Long may your freedom and hope provide an example to those suffering everywhere at the hands of their malevolent states. May your two and a half centuries of unparallelled success be just the beginning. Your country is the light of the world, and the city on the hill. Thank God for the USA. Happy 250th. Dr. Jordan B. Peterson

The communist doesn’t think to increase the quality of the grid. The communist demands that you decrease the quality of your life. They make you ration the things that every other American gets to enjoy. Every single time.

🚨 Cancer Excess Mortality Continues to Rise 🚨 Our models showed the excess in July 2021 - and the world listened. Pharma proxies threatened me. Paid trolls lied to us all. Our models have stood the test of time. We must now seriously consider, as a society, what steps we are willing to take to confront this multi-decadal challenge and mitigate its effects.

Let's go. Time to build 🚀

New evidence that the FDA covered up child deaths caused by the COVID vaccine. This is devastating. The FDA is basically protecting the DRUG companies, not the American public. That is corrupt. childrenshealthdefense.org/defender/fda-a…

I made a lot of videos about the pandemic. I think this is the best one. It captures the insanity really well.

government destroys value. in this case, the value of an American education was destroyed in ~40 years. if there’s no marketplace for customers (parents of students) to demand value (quality of education for price paid) by simply going to another service provider (school or educator), it is inevitable that costs will go up and quality will go down. this is true of any service provided by government, which effectively grants itself a monopoly, deleting the opportunity for other service providers to compete in offering better value to customers/citizens…

When Jimmy Carter purchased the teachers’ union’s endorsement in 1979 by establishing the Department of Education, the USA was #1 in education. 46 years and $4.1 trillion dollars later, the USA is #40. We are, however, #1 in cost per student.

Something good is happening at this World Cup. The Scots turned up. The English turned up. The Norwegians turned up. They sang their songs, got stuck in, and the Americans loved them for it. Glasgow and Boston are getting twinned off the back of it. For 30 years we’ve been told to view the US as some sort of Great Satan — all imperialism and orange-man clichés. Not everyone buys it of course, but enough do. And then Europeans actually go, and find a place that feels familiar. Makes sense to them. A bit richer, a bit further ahead, but recognisably ours. Settled by Europeans, still deeply European in its bones. There’s a gathering-of-the-clans feeling to it. Old neighbours discovering they still like the same songs, the same drink, the same daft humour, and genuinely enjoying each other’s company. None of it’s a surprise, really. It’s just been buried under so much politics that we forgot we were allowed to enjoy it. Good to be reminded.

Intellectual disability 💉 21. Tics 💉 22. Other psychological disability 💉 Our peer-reviewed reanalysis of the landmark Henry Ford birth cohort study found 22 out of 22 chronic disease categories were proportionally higher in vaccinated children. ZERO exceptions. The CDC’s unlawful vaccine regime has poisoned the nation.

This censorship law is a wolf in sheep’s clothing. The real goal is to enable the UK government to track everyone.

Dr. Russell Blaylock: "The tetanus vaccine is one of the MOST RIDICULOUS vaccines ever." Just got a cut or puncture wound? The ER is about to BULLY you into a TOXIC shot you don’t need. Here’s what they won’t tell you: The shot they push is NOT a simple tetanus vaccine — it’s the full DTaP combo loaded with: • Aluminum (up to 0.625 mg — a known neurotoxin) • Formaldehyde • 2-phenoxyethanol + Triton X-100 • Milk protein (casein) & latex residues that can trigger anaphylaxis or CREATE new dairy/latex allergies The tetanus toxoid inside has NEVER been properly safety-tested in a double-blind placebo-controlled trial. CDC admits it. It’s grown on beef heart infusion with real risk of Mad Cow prion contamination. Your actual chance of getting tetanus? 1 in 11 MILLION. Spores live in manure, NOT rust. Clean the wound properly — oxygen kills them. 95% of the decline happened BEFORE any vaccine thanks to sanitation. If you’re already exposed, the shot is useless — it takes 3-8 weeks for antibodies. But high-dose Vitamin C (1–3g/day) cured 100% of cases in studies with ZERO deaths. Cheap. Safe. Ignored. Why are we terrorized into this untested, poison-filled combo shot for a disease that’s basically extinct in clean countries? Because fear sells. Don’t fall for the rusty nail myth. Clean the wound. Monitor it. Refuse the jab. Were you guilt-tripped into a “tetanus shot?” Were you ever told it was actually the full DTaP?

SHOCKING NEW STUDY: Sunscreen USERS Face DRAMATICALLY HIGHER Skin Cancer Risk A massive UK Biobank analysis of 470,000+ people just revealed: - Invasive Melanoma: +292% higher risk - Basal Cell Carcinoma: +140% higher risk - Squamous Cell Carcinoma: +126% higher risk These alarming signals held strong even after adjusting for age, sex, skin type, tanning ability, sunburn history, sunlamp use, and time spent outdoors. You slather on hormone-disrupting chemicals that get absorbed into your bloodstream… block vitamin D (your body’s #1 cancer shield)… and end up with*triple the melanoma risk? Sunburns are bad — but this “protection” is making things far worse. Time to ditch the chemical cocktails. Sensible sun + mineral zinc if needed. Your skin deserves better.

Having been together for 50 years, with my amazing wife of 47 years... here is my advice to younger folk. Find someone special, who is your best friend and jump in. Commit to being devoted. If you chose wisely, you won't regret it - ever.

"Researchers around the world are grappling with a vexing problem: why are so many young people developing cancers once considered the purview of old age? The question was prominent at two of the world’s largest cancer meetings this year, and hypotheses abounded. Ultra-processed foods, obesity, microbial toxins and agricultural chemicals were all considered. But a clear answer remained elusive." at what point are they finally going to look at the obvious thing here?
