President Trump just declared war on every AI regime.

His $500 billion America's AI Action Plan changes everything...

And he now has the ONE thing China and Europe desperately need but can't replicate.

Here's how Trump is outplaying the entire global AI race:

A Thread 🧵 Image
Image
I just spent my morning reading all 25 pages of Trump's AI Action Plan.

As a 3x exited founder and former White House Fellow, this isn't typical policy.

It's the most comprehensive tech strategy I've seen from any administration.

Here's what most people are missing:
The plan frames AI as three simultaneous revolutions: industrial, information, and renaissance.

This isn't about better chatbots. It's about reshaping global power structures.

While competitors focus on models, America is building the entire ecosystem to support AI dominance.
Three specific moves that have competitors scrambling:
Move #1: Full-Stack AI Exports

Commerce and State are packaging hardware, models, software, and standards into complete AI bundles for allies.

Countries either get everything from America or turn to inferior alternatives.

No middle ground. No gradual adoption.
Move #2: Regulatory Sandboxes

Testing AI healthcare tools without FDA delays. Financial AI without SEC approval bottlenecks.

America's creating innovation zones where development moves at startup speed, not government speed.

Competitors remain trapped in regulatory bureaucracy.
Move #3: Tax-Free AI Training

Section 132 reimbursements let companies upskill workers without tax penalties.

While others fear AI displacement, America's making its workforce AI-native.

This workforce advantage compounds over time. The most underestimated advantage. Image
After analyzing the entire document, three things stand out:
1. Infrastructure-First Thinking

Our biggest AI bottleneck isn't algorithms, it's power grids and data centers.

The plan's focus on streamlined permitting and massive energy buildout feels overdue.

If you're in infrastructure, energy, or construction, pay attention.
2. Worker-Centric Approach

They're explicitly focused on "empowering American workers" rather than replacing them.

Tax-free AI training reimbursements under Section 132 is brilliant, employers can upskill without tax penalties.

If you're in HR or L&D, this is a game-changer.
3. Open-Source Strategy

The emphasis on open-source models makes strategic sense.

Winning the AI race isn't just about having the best models—it's about setting global standards.

If American open-source becomes the foundation worldwide, that's soft power at its finest. Image
What this means for your career:

Federal government becomes one of the world's biggest AI customers.

Infrastructure jobs exploding—electricians, HVAC techs, data center specialists.

AI roles across dozens of agencies. The opportunity window is 6-12 months.
For businesses:

Federal AI procurement is opening up across agencies.

"Compute financial markets" change everything for startups needing massive computing power.

Regulatory sandboxes let you test AI products without normal compliance costs.

Start positioning now.
My concerns:

90+ policy actions across dozens of agencies creates execution complexity.

Talent shortage remains real, 4.2 million unfilled AI positions globally, only 320,000 qualified developers.

Infrastructure alone won't solve the fundamental skills gap.
Bottom line:

This shifts from "should we lead in AI?" to "how do we dominate?"

It's a blueprint for technological sovereignty, not just competitive advantage.

The global AI landscape just changed permanently.

The question is whether you're positioned for what comes next.

BREAKING: Norway's $2 trillion wealth fund ran a 12-month AI experiment.

They gave Claude access to their entire investment workflow.

Result: 213,000 hours saved. 20% productivity boost.

But what they found hiding in the data changed everything:

A Thread 🧵 Image

Meet Nicolai Tangen, CEO of NBIM - the world's largest sovereign wealth fund.

700 employees managing $2 trillion in assets.

In 2022, he made a strategic decision that would reshape their entire operation.

But first, he had to address significant organizational resistance... Image
Tangen began systematically advocating for AI adoption across his 670-person team.

The challenge? Most investment professionals viewed AI as potentially disruptive to established workflows.

Traditional analysts were spending days on tasks that seemed impossible to automate.

Then Claude was introduced...

President Trump just hosted the GENIUS Act ceremony at the White House.

One by one, Trump and Sacks delivered major announcements and clues on what's coming next—directly to the American people.

Here's everything you should know (the behind-the-scenes details are incredible):🧵 Image
1/ The Legislative Rescue Operation

Just 48 hours ago, media declared the GENIUS Act "dead."

Trump's late-night vote count:

3:00 AM: 9 votes short
3:30 AM: 4 votes short
4:00 AM: "We were in good shape"

@DavidSacks called it the most dramatic legislative save in modern history.
2/ The Record-Breaking Standoff

House Republicans staged unprecedented resistance:

• 10-hour vote held open (breaking modern records)
• 13 GOP holdouts initially blocked the bill
• Trump summoned 11 rebels to Oval Office
• Personal intervention secured their votes

Grounding is one of the most powerful bio hacks on earth.

It reverses aging, reduces inflammation, and boosts sleep quality.

Recently, I've been researching its healing benefits. What I found will blow your mind…

Here's everything you should know (backed by science): 🧵
Most people dismiss grounding as pseudoscience.

They're wrong.

Published research shows that direct contact with Earth's surface creates measurable physiological changes within hours.

The mechanism is simple. The results are extraordinary.
In 2013, UC Irvine researchers published a breakthrough study in the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine.

10 healthy adults were grounded for 2 hours using conductive patches connected to the earth.

Blood samples revealed something remarkable... Image

Trump Just Gave Putin a 50-Day Ultimatum That Changes Everything

NATO's biggest weapons deal in history was announced today—and Europe is paying 100% of the bill.

The room went silent. Then Trump said something about Putin that no president has ever admitted publicly.

A Thread 🧵Image
Yesterday's meeting reveals details most outlets haven't covered.

This wasn't just an announcement. It represents a fundamental shift in how America approaches proxy conflicts.

Here's what actually happened in the meeting...
Trump set a specific deadline: 50 days for Putin to agree to peace terms.

If Russia doesn't comply by September 2nd, the US implements 100% "secondary tariffs."

But these don't target Russia directly...

Pranayama is the #1 bio hack on Earth.

It fixes depression, chronic stress, and reverses aging naturally.

Recently, I've been researching its healing benefits. What I found will blow your mind...

Here's what it is and how to perform it the right way (according to science): 🧵
Your breath controls every single function in your body.

Yet 99% of people breathe wrong their entire lives.

This isn't just about oxygen - it's about activating genetic switches that Big Pharma spends billions trying to trigger with drugs.

Ancient yogis mastered this 2,500 years ago.
Image
A single 90-second breath hold triggers a 556% increase in growth hormone.

The 1986 Djarova study proved it - hyperventilation plus breath retention increased HGH by up to 5.56-fold.

Pharmaceutical companies charge thousands for weaker results.
This costs nothing. Image
