Summary: In this edition, we explore the radical democratization of wealth and the simultaneous consolidation of truth. We deconstruct the incredible story of Matthew Gallagher, who used everyday AI tools like ChatGPT and Midjourney to build a $1.8 billion company from his living room. But as we celebrate the power of the individual, we must face the systemic threats: OpenAI’s acquisition of the TBPN tech news network raises severe conflict-of-interest questions, while Senator Bernie Sanders warns that AI is eroding human equality and connection. Plus, we look at the very real human costs of global conflict as Amazon slaps a fuel surcharge on third-party sellers, and we look up at the stars as NASA’s Artemis II heads for the moon.
