My tweets, like forward-looking statements, reflect thoughts that are subject to change. I will now turn you over to the rest of my feed.

Deloitte to partially refund Australian government for report with apparent AI-generated errors errors, including a fabricated quote from a federal court judgment and references to nonexistent academic research papers.

I just had my first telehealth appointment in which the provider asked my consent to use a HIPAA-compliant AI notetaker. How did we get here before we got flying cars?

There is a woman in San Francisco who charges $30k to name your baby. She started at $100, but she was going to dinner with VCs and a friend told her to charge more and nobody blinked. The Bay Area might be the best place in the world for this kind of business.

The Platinum Card just got pricier. Amex is hiking its annual fee to $895—topping rivals like Chase, Citi & Capital One. Here’s how the perks stack up 👇🏾 Full story: https://t.co/sK4TJXyxZc

this is it. this is everything

More than a dozen fans sitting on or near courtside tonight are wearing these bright orange shirts to protest the Liberty’s skyrocketing ticket prices for the playoffs and next season.

In order to build Black wealth, Black businesses need to be covered with the same rigor and scrutiny applied to everyone else. Accountability is not betrayal. It’s protection. 🧵/end

And the most disappointing part? It’s working. Supporting black bunsiness shoudn't mean exploiting the people who believe in them.

By instructing her followers to “clear the shelves,” Weaver is effectively asking for a customer-funded cash infusion— again most likely from Black supporters. She’s asking for more money while offering no real explanation of how the last batch was handled.

Black owned businesses tend to draw an outsized amount of support from black investors, so when black-owned businesses are managed poorly, the black community ends up paying the price.

Once a company starts taking money from outside investors or creditors, one of the most important functions of a CEO is to be a good steward of capital (read: other people's money).

For example: When Charlie Scharf first took over as CEO of Wells Fargo, I wrote a story in which I got several people to effectively call him a jerk on the record. The stock has more than tripled since he took over.

Here's the thing: Black CEOs don’t need to be saints and they don't need to be everybody's little friend. They need to be good at their jobs. We can—and should—cover Black businesses without turning every story into a moral referendum on the individuals who run them.

Any one of those things alone is a red flag. Taken together, they paint a damning picture. But a lot of the public reaction has focused on her personality or the Black community’s loyalty rather than the numbers

A judge just put one of the buzziest Black-owned liquor brands under court-appointed receivership. That doesn’t happen over “salacious” rumors—it happens when there’s evidence of major mismanagement: like misstating inventory by $20M+ or defaulting on a $100M loan.

🧵 THREAD: Let’s talk about the Fawn Weaver saga. So much of the media reaction to Uncle Nearest's financial distress has been about the CEO's "character" or "godliness" and I think that's part of the problem

I think I found the funniest chart in the @WSJ archives. From 2007:

Companies are returning to in-person job interviews to combat AI-driven cheating https://t.co/SYQ0albO1u via @WSJ
