Here’s what changes when cannabis moves from Schedule I to Schedule III later today at 1:30pm ET. Thanks to @GadiNBC and @NBCNewsNow for the conversation.

There’s a dangerous paradox emerging in the AI economy. If you have a job today, you have an incredible opportunity to become AI native. You have income to buy tokens, experiment with frontier models, build agents, and push the limits of what’s possible. If you work at an AI native company, the advantage is even greater. Your company is becoming the new university. A collective intelligence of ambitious, curious people learning together, burning tokens, building things, and accelerating each other’s capabilities every day. Now consider the engineers resisting AI. The ones convinced agents can’t do their jobs, dismissing the technology instead of mastering it. As companies become AI native, many of these people will lose their jobs. And that’s where the trap closes. No paycheck. No company funded tokens. No collective intelligence to learn from. No real world environment to experiment in. Meanwhile, everyone who embraced AI is getting paid to become exponentially more capable. The gap compounds. Catching up becomes more expensive, more difficult, and less likely with every passing day. We’re entering a world where losing your job could also mean losing your ability to learn the skills required to get another one. If you’re employed today, don’t waste this moment. Be curious. Be ambitious. Burn tokens. Build things. Your greatest competitive advantage right now is having the resources and opportunity to become AI native before you absolutely have to.

AI is going to give small businesses a leg up against big companies. There’s never been a better time to build in America.

GCP is literally out of compute. Even for customers like us who spend millions. @googlecloud support says no more compute sorry 🤷‍♂️

Jacob Coxon leaving Anthropic is a distraction from GPT-6 Astra beating Fable 5.1. Notice how this happened nearly immediately after Astra was released.

Actual lettuce is the devils lettuce

How retarded would you say Michael Phelps is? Only met him once. Seemed smart to me.

It’s 2026, weed should be fully legal by now wtf?

AI agents will use @FlowhubCo for you. You don’t need to click around the platform anymore.

When I started @FlowhubCo I thought the cannabis industry would grow at the speed of tech. In reality it grows at the speed of regulation.

What if Anthropic made this up and it’s all a fable?

Alcohol kills roughly 4 to 5 times more people globally than all illegal drugs combined.

Cannabis is rescheduled!

How big is the illicit cannabis industry?

Just your daily reminder that cannabis should be federally legal or decriminalized.

Alcohol gets Super Bowl commercials, stadium sponsorships, and a century of positive propaganda telling you it’s how you celebrate, socialize, and unwind. The alcohol industry spends $6 billion+ a year telling you drinking is normal. Cannabis gets Reefer Madness, scare campaigns, scromiting, a Google ad ban, and shadow bans on social media. In fact, X is one of the few places you can openly talk about cannabis without getting banned. One substance makes people more compliant. The other makes people question everything. Guess which one the government spent 90 years trying to destroy? Cannabis was criminalized because people who think for themselves are a lot harder to control than people who go numb and essentially dissociate. Meanwhile, according to the CDC alcohol is responsible for killing 178,000 Americans per year. According to the DEA, no one in recorded history has ever died from a cannabis overdose. One is incredibly dangerous, yet so widely accepted that people don’t even see the positive propaganda anymore. The other is incredibly safe, yet vilified. People will argue it’s a gateway drug, that teen use will skyrocket, that it should be highly illegal…and they’ll say all of that while holding a beer. If you think this sounds like a conspiracy theory, go read the history.

This is wildly misleading. The regulated cannabis market won’t even let a minor through the front door. IDs are checked multiple times, every sale is tracked, and dispensaries are more heavily regulated than bars and liquor stores. If teens are accessing “weed” more easily, look at the synthetic hemp products being sold at gas stations with zero age verification thanks to the 2018 Farm Bill. That’s not the regulated cannabis industry. That’s the unregulated market the government created by refusing to regulate hemp properly. Don’t blame the regulated legal cannabis for a problem caused by the lack of regulation everywhere else.

Alcohol kills 178,000 Americans a year directly. Tobacco kills 480,000. Opioids kill 80,000+. Cannabis kills zero directly, so they have to stretch to “through heart attacks, auto accidents, and violence” to make it sound scary. Funny, because alcohol is one of the leading causes of heart attacks, auto accidents, and violence in America.
