Why I think @AvokoAI is the most needed “microscope” for Agent-Native products in 2026 👇

(And why I stopped trusting benchmarks…)

Try it out:

(Open the thread) 🧵 avoko.ai/s/ywrtbt6j
We’re entering the era of Agent-Native products.

But there’s a problem nobody talks about:

👉 Most AI agents are still black boxes.

You see outputs.
You don’t see why they happen.
I’ve personally been misled by benchmarks before.

Everything looked impressive on paper:

• High success rates
• Clean demos
• Strong metrics

But in reality?

The agent failed in edge cases I actually cared about.

Imagine waking up to death threats and thousands of strangers calling you a criminal—all because of your Facebook profile picture. 😱📸

A Malaysian couple is living a nightmare after scammers "hijacked" their family photo to run a fake catering business. They aren’t the scammers; they are the victims of identity theft.

👇🏼 Image
How it happened:
1. The Trap: Scammers used Mr. Tan’s photo to sell "too good to be true" catering packages on FB.

2. The Reveal: Victims paid via QR codes to random accounts, but no food ever arrived.

1/n Here’s a thread on why this is nonsense. I think it’s important to debunk bc increasingly the antivaccine activists and their rhetoric are trying to sound more like real science even though it’s fake.
2/n first of all, there’s no such thing as a “turbo cancer,” it’s a made up term from the wellness influencers to frighten you and make it easier to pedal, their supplements, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, fenbendazole, or whatever else they can purchase in bulk and jack up the price
3/n next, the lipid nanoparticles that introduce nucleic acid get past the cell membrane into the cytoplasm where mRNA attaches to ribosomes to make protein but to get it past the nuclear membrane is work, it requires electroporation

Seattle's Hearing Examiner just blocked WinCo Foods from opening in the old Sam's Club at 13550 Aurora Ave N, a building that's been vacant since 2018. The SEPA appeal was filed by a group called "Lake Washington Working Families."

Sounds like concerned neighbors, right? Let's talk about a pattern. /1
WinCo is the 2nd-largest employee-owned company in America. 145 stores across 10 states. 20,000+ employee-owners. Over 500 employee-owners are millionaires through the company's ESOP (employee stock ownership plan).

They sell groceries cheaper than Walmart. No credit cards. No frills. Bag your own. /2
There's one thing WinCo doesn't have: a UFCW contract.

The United Food and Commercial Workers union has been trying to organize WinCo for decades and failing. WinCo employees repeatedly decline unionization because they don't want to risk their ESOP.

So the UFCW adopted a different strategy: if you can't organize the workers, block the stores. /3

@Real_RobN There is a government fund that has been used to settle certain workplace disputes—including harassment cases.

The fund is tied to the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995, which governs workplace rights in Congress.
1)
@Real_RobN Claims by congressional staff (House or Senate) were handled through an internal process run by the Office of Compliance (now called the Office of Congressional Workplace Rights).
2)
@Real_RobN Settlements—including some related to harassment—were paid using U.S. Treasury funds, not directly out of a specific member’s personal account.

Because taxpayer money was used to pay settlements, critics argued it allowed members to avoid personal financial accountability.

In a self-computing reality, the "individual" is a localized concentration of that universal calculation. This leads to a few striking conclusions about how we operate:.
1. Agency as "Optimization"
​Instead of "free will" in the classical sense—which implies a soul standing outside of physics—agency becomes the system's ability to locally optimize.
When you make a decision, it is the universe’s recursive loop processing data through your specific hardware to find the most "natural" path forward.
​2. The Dissolution of the Programmer
​If the computer is computing itself, there is no "User" at the keyboard.

For decades, “neuroinflammaging”, the slow-burning inflammation that causes brain fog and memory decline, was considered an unavoidable part of getting older. However, a landmark study suggests the clock can be turned back.

Researchers developed a non-invasive nasal spray that uses microscopic “delivery parcels” to travel directly into the brain. With just two doses, the therapy dramatically reduced chronic inflammation, recharged cellular “power plants” (mitochondria), and restored memory and cognitive sharpness in aging models.

neurosciencenews.com/nasal-spray-re…

#neuroscience #brain #science (1/3)
Key Facts

Rapid & Lasting Results: Significant cognitive improvements were observed within weeks and, remarkably, persisted for months after only two doses.

Universal Efficacy: Unlike many medical studies that show varying results by sex, this therapy proved equally effective in both males and females.

Behavioral Recovery: Treated models showed a restored ability to recognize familiar objects and adapt to changes in their environment—key indicators of a healthy, functioning memory center.

Future Applications: Beyond aging, researchers believe this approach could be adapted to help stroke survivors rebuild lost function or slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease.

Patent Pending: Texas A&M has already filed a U.S. patent for the therapy, signaling a major move toward real-world clinical application. (2/3)

Israeli espionage officials were approved by the Atomic Energy Commission to visit the exact uranium enrichment plant, NUMEC, in 1968 where hundreds of pounds of weapons-grade uranium disappeared, despite the CIA already investigating and finding evidence Israel had stolen it.

The visiting Israeli officials were:

• Avraham Hermoni, nuclear espionage chief of LAKAM and technical director of Israel’s nuclear weapons program

• Abraham Bendor, senior Shin Bet officer, (deputy director of Shin Bet covert operations, later became head of Shin Bet)

• Dr. Ephraim Biegun, Shin Bet technician/operative

• Rafi Eitan, who later ran LAKAM and handled the Jonathan Pollard Israeli spy operation against the United States.

NUMEC was run by Dr. Shapiro, a Jewish American Zionist who was an officer in the Zionist Organization of America, a constituent of the Israel lobby JFK demanded to register as a foreign agent. Shapiro had deep Israel government ties, had 51 FBI reports made about him, worked for the ADL, and was a close colleague of Ernest David Bergmann, who went on to become the father of the Israeli atomic bomb. The funding for NUMEC was arranged by David Lowenthal, a confidant of Israeli Prime Minister Ben-Gurion and Haganah volunteer.

The Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) was chaired by Dr. Glenn Seaborg at the time visits from Israeli espionage officials were approved. Dr. Seaborg was a Jewish American scientist who helped cover up for NUMEC when the missing uranium was first detected, by telling the FBI there was no need for an investigation, despite the process and control records from that time being conveniently destroyed in an “employee strike.”

When the FBI and DOJ wanted to revoke Dr. Zalman Shapiro’s security clearances, (because of the missing weapons-grade uranium and Israeli government ties), Dr. Seaborg refused, as chairman of the AEC. The AEC had the final authority to revoke security clearances for people working at nuclear facilities like NUMEC. They overruled the FBI’s concerns and kept Shapiro’s clearance intact for years, even after the CIA had already found the U.S. isotope signature outside of Israel’s Dimona nuclear site.

In a now declassified private journal entry, Dr. Alan Seaborg later wrote: “What good would it have done if we admitted that highly enriched uranium was stolen and given to Israel?”

The uranium was being stolen from NUMEC during the exact time period that JFK was pressuring for unrestricted access to Israel’s nuclear program because he suspected they were making weapons and wanted to shut it down. The Zionist Organization of America that Dr. Zalman Shapiro was a national officer for was a constituent of the exact “American Zionist Council” Israel lobby register as a foreign agent after having them investigated by the DOJ.

JFK was kiIIed less than 5 months after giving Israel his final ultimatum about their nuclear program. Aside from being a huge supporter of Israel, LBJ’s aunt was an active member of the “Zionist Organization of America” Israel lobby that Zalman Shapiro worked for. After assuming office as president when JFK was kiIIed, LBJ ceased all pressure over Israel’s nuclear program, increased arms sales and military aid to Israel and quietly dropped the demand for the Israel lobby to register as a foreign agent.
Dr. Glenn Seaborg never once mentioned Shapiro’s deep Israeli government ties to the FBI after the AEC investigation into NUMEC losses, despite approving Israel espionage visits to the highly enriched uranium processing plant and refusing to revoke Shapiro’s security clearance.

nsarchive.gwu.edu/document/22145…
Dr. Seaborg inadvertently admitted that the isotopic signature of U.S. highly enriched uranium was found outside Israel’s nuclear plant in Dimona, as the greater than 96% enrichment was exclusively produced in Portsmouth, the exact type of enriched uranium that NUMEC processed.

This was revealed to him when he was confronted by Department of Energy officials for refusing to revoke Shapiro’s security clearance. *his note here is false and intentional obfuscation because the U.S. had never sold weapons-grade uranium to Israel.

info.publicintelligence.net/DOE-Uranium.pdf

The CIA samples documenting this exact isotope signature picked up by CIA station chief in Tel Aviv remain classified today, but this cross reference has publicly established the fact, which had already been verified by Dr. Roger Mattson, a nuclear scientist who had Q clearance when reviewing the NUMEC affair.Image

The @Guardian just ran a fawning profile of UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese – they even call her a “rockstar.”

In the opening scene, a Geneva café supposedly lines up for selfies. It reads like fan fiction, not journalism.

And it only gets worse. 🧵 Image
Image
2/
Borger gushes that Albanese is the first person with “UN” in her title to accuse Israel of genocide.
Translation: she used a UN platform to push a claim that doesn’t survive contact with facts.

Genocide means intent to destroy a people.
Israel fought Hamas, a terror group embedded among civilians, with evacuation warnings, aid facilitation, judicial oversight. Not genocide. War.

And on Yom HaShoah – Holocaust Remembrance Day?
The Guardian chose that moment to trivialize the word beyond recognition. The timing can only be deliberate.Image
3/
The piece paints Albanese as persecuted – hated by states, threatened, even sanctioned by the U.S.

But this isn’t about “choice of words.” It’s about a pattern:
– Justifying Oct. 7
– Support for terrorism
– Crossing from criticism into incitement

That’s why she’s been challenged. Take away her UN badge, and she’s just another terror apologist.

Yet Borger’s scandal isn’t what she’s said – it’s that anyone dares to notice.

Data Republican! I am the organizer of the post-Kirk assasination event you're basing this conspiracy on; Tis I, who have assembled these forces in seditious collusion. I, John Wood Jr., am the figure in the shadows pulling the strings.

With your permision here's what I say:
First of all @DataRepublican, I don't do X or Twitter much these days. (It's bad for my brain.) And I don't know if you know who I am though I know we have mutuals. But I have found some of your investigative threads to interesting over the years. So believe me when I say I mean you no harm.

But I think that part of what social media, and the incentives thereof, do to us is force us to reason in ways that interpret the actions of others in the worst possible light, even when explanations exist that are simple and more plausible than the malicious things we imagine. I do intend to show that this is what is happening to you here.
Before this most recent thread linked above, you published a thread questioning the production of Zoom event that gathered multiple Bridging organizations together to respond to the death of Charlie Kirk.

You wrote this: "1,400 people. 20+ organizations. 3 professionally moderated panels. 4 days after an assassination. Does this sound organic to you?"

Well, the simple answer is, yes. In fact it does.
