Tonight, we’re going to dinner with Ty and Madi. Think we’re on at 5:30. Lori is in Edwards today and I think will be home early before we go to dinner. She’s going to meet Tiffany, her new nurse she hired, for coffee this afternoon. I think Tiffany starts next week.
We slept in until around 6:45 this morning. Lori is rushing to get ready for work. Our big buck is outside this morning looking for food. The deer are all pretty healthy due to the low snowpack here at the house. I think more snow is coming in this weekend.
President Trump is on it. I was talking with a friend who is high up in the crypto World yesterday, (they sponsored one of the Presidential inaugural balls) and we’re both optimistic about things that are happening. While crypto and AI are advancing at light speed, this doesn’t bode well for smaller banks that don’t embrace the new tech. In fact, crypto’s advancement will eventually change the way we buy and sell things as it’s inevitable that someday, dollars and currencies we use now, will be a thing of the past.
With the release of Deepseek R1 yesterday, the markets and business World was rocked. For those of you unaware, Deepseek was developed by Bejing (China) at a fraction of the cost of our AI programs and operates using about 10 percent of the chips we need to run ours. But the real kicker is, it’s much faster and more efficient. In one day, it was the most downloaded app in history. There are a few expected drawbacks, like it deters you from any question that is critical of China, which is to be expected since it’s owned by the State and was developed there. But here’s the problem, we 100% cannot lose the AI race to China! It will, without question, destroy us and our way of life. Imagine China dictating what is real or not and how things should work! This is all the fault of the Biden administration who did not support AI development as it was too busy pushing DEI and other misguided policies that not only didn’t help us but actually hurt us. Nort embracing crypto is another example. Hopefully our talent (Musk, Altman, etc.) can catch up!
Time to get moving, make it a great day, be well, stay safe and God Bless.
