Here’s a question I get all the time:“Is everything I type into ChatGPT making it smarter?” Short answer? No. Longer answer? Hell no. And honestly, that’s the part people don’t get — but it’s the key to understanding where we are right now  in AI and where we’re heading faster than most realize. The AI You’re Using is Frozen in Time Every AI model you’ve ever interacted with — GPT-4, Claude, Grok 1, 2, 5, whatever — is basically locked in amber. It's not learning. It's not ev

If you’ve been using ChatGPT since the early days, you remember how wild it was — the world’s most powerful artificial intelligence wrapped in one of the simplest interfaces imaginable. It felt like driving a spaceship with two buttons: “send” and “regenerate.” Fast-forward to now, and it’s not just a chat box anymore. It’s starting to look and feel like a full-on operating system for your digital life . Projects, Custom GPTs, Memory, Connectors, Sora, the Atlas Browser — it’

We’ve all asked whether AI can really write code. Whether it understands what it’s doing. Whether it even understands anything at all. But lately, I’ve started asking a different question: What if AI isn’t just learning to code in our systems? What if it’s beginning to interface with the source code of reality itself? This isn’t just philosophical musing—it’s grounded in what’s happening right now inside bleeding-edge quantum systems. Take Google’s Willow  chip: a machine tha

There’s a hard truth nobody wants to say out loud: if you’re not adapting to modern tools — if you’re not using AI, automating your workflows, or streamlining with the tech that’s already freely available — you are the problem. Not the market. Not the system. You. We’re living in an adapt or die  era. Technology isn’t creeping forward anymore — it’s sprinting. AI has hit escape velocity. What used to take teams of people and days of work can now be done in minutes. For free.

If you’ve been on the internet in the last 48 hours, you’ve probably seen that  photo — a massive white-roofed facility in Memphis with MACROHARD  painted across it in letters so huge you can literally see them from space. And of course, it came straight from Elon Musk’s X account. Classic Elon: half-joke, half-omen, and somehow both at the same time. This is the same man who named a car line “S3XY,” sent a sports car into orbit, and made flamethrowers a consumer product. So

There’s a telltale way to know your IT leadership isn’t qualified.And it’s not when a system goes down, or a server crashes, or a backup takes a little longer than expected. It’s when best practices  are treated like optional guidelines instead of gospel. Because best practices aren’t suggestions — they’re guardrails. Ignore them long enough, and you’ll end up where South Korea’s government did last month: standing in front of 858 terabytes of smoldering digital rubble wonder

So… OpenAI just dropped Atlas , their brand-new AI-powered browser . And somewhere out there, a thousand Chrome extensions just quietly curled up and died. Copy helpers, summarizers, productivity widgets, those sidebar AI things everyone rushed to build last year — all gone in one press release. Atlas basically did to browser plug-ins what the iPhone did to the flip phone industry: it smiled, waved politely, and rewrote the rules of the game. But under the hood, this isn’t ju

If you’ve ever dropped a few lines into ChatGPT and watched it choke out a red error message, you’ve probably thought, “Well, it’s broken.” It’s not. Your AI isn’t broken — you’re just talking to it without context. The Call That Sparked It A friend of mine called recently — the kind of call I get two or three times a day — frustrated because ChatGPT “wasn’t working.” He pasted what looked like the start of an email into GPT-5, hit enter… red error. Tried again in a new chat…

When us-east-1 Sneezes, the Internet Gets a Cold At exactly 3:11 AM this morning—because apparently the cloud has a flair for irony— Amazon Web Services’ us-east-1 region  tripped over its own DNS resolver and faceplanted, taking half the internet down with it. For those of us of a certain age, sipping our morning coffee while watching dashboards fail to load, there was only one thing going through our heads: 🎶 Gonna take the internet down… down…  🎶 Yes. 311. The band. The

Let’s be clear: the cloud isn’t dying. But the age of unquestioned cloud supremacy  — that decade-long reign where every ounce of intelligence had to pass through someone else’s API — that’s beginning to crack. We’re entering the post-imperial  phase of compute. The Great Inversion For twenty years, the cloud has been the empire of cognition: centralized, industrial, and rented by the teraflop. It made sense. The economics of scale were brutal. Training frontier models requir

Introducing the NVIDIA Coffee Warmer Platform — the world’s first one-petaflop beverage stabilizer. That’s right. A desktop AI supercomputer powerful enough to run Llama 3.1 70B or GPT-OSS 120B, and it just so happens to keep your coffee warm while it does it. And I need one. Right now. Let’s rewind for a second. In the 1970s, when I was born, you’d need about six million supercomputers—an entire town’s worth —costing $55 trillion to hit one petaflop of compute. By the late ‘

Let me tell you something that’s easy to miss but impossible to ignore once you see it: The borders that matter now aren’t on land—they’re in compute. And they’re shifting. Fast. Not in theory. Not in the metaverse. In steel, in silicon, in megawatts. The world is being redrawn in real time, and the lines are being etched by the placement of data centers. This isn’t speculation. This isn’t metaphor. This is a real-world transformation happening at a scale that’s hard to wrap

So here’s the thing. Florida is finally stepping into the data center conversation — and about time. As an AI accelerationist, Floridian, and someone knee-deep in the world of GPUs and power systems, I’m watching this one closely. Because what’s playing out in the Florida Public Service Commission isn’t just a local issue — it’s a glimpse at how the AI revolution collides with infrastructure reality. For the first time, regulators are trying to figure out how to handle the en

So I’ve been tossing around an idea — part experiment, part hangout — where we spend a couple hours together learning how to vibe-code  our own custom GPTs and web apps. Picture this: laptops open, coffee in hand, me walking you step-by-step through how to take an idea and turn it into something real  — something that actually runs on the internet before you leave the room. No coding degree. No dev team. No five-figure contracts. Just you, a laptop, and a couple hours to brin

Let’s start with a hard truth: most people have no idea what AI can do — and that’s a problem. A big  one. Every day, I see new scams pop up online that look completely legitimate — professional-looking websites, polished videos, believable voices, and glowing reviews. The twist? None of it’s real. The people don’t exist. The products don’t exist. The business itself? Fabricated entirely by artificial intelligence. We’ve crossed a line. AI isn’t just automating tasks anymore;

Let’s not pretend we didn’t see this coming. Sam Altman made it official this week: OpenAI’s tools — including ChatGPT — are now open to supporting adult-oriented content in specific contexts. And predictably, the internet lit up like a Christmas tree in a lightning storm. Some are shocked. Some are offended. A lot of people are thrilled. But the truth? Inevitable. We were always going to get here. And the real conversation — the one we need  to have — is not  about whether t

Walk into any office in the world—tech startup, bank, law firm, doesn't matter. Find someone at their desk, shoulders curled forward like a question mark, eyeballs deep in emails or Jira tickets. Now, put your thumb right between their shoulder blade and spine, just a little up and in. What happens? They drop their shoulder. They let out an involuntary “ooohhh.”  Then—without fail—they turn to you and say: “Do it again.” That, my friend, is the spot . You know it. I know it.
