Excellent statement by Yale epidemiologist @gregggonsalves@med-mastodon.com on why scientists should speak up about the defunding, censorship, deterioration, and ideological distortion of US science -- or at least take notes: https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/americas-compact-between-science-and-politics-is-broken/ Scientists now have the responsibility of "bearing witness and putting evidence on the table. It may not be persuasive to Russell Vought or Marco Rubio, but it is for the dossier, for the truth and reconciliation commission, for the Nuremberg trials that come after. Keep the receipts. Write down what you see. Tell them what they did. We’re very good at documenting how X leads to Y." #Censorship #DefendResearch #Funding #Trump #TrumpVResearch #USPol #USPolitics

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Blender/116482997785333001 Reputation is one of the most valuable things any social project has. It can inspire people to do great things together. Money is, *waves hand*, helpful; but just a thing. It's not valuable in itself, only in what things it can be transacted to get people to do for you. If you trade inspiration for transactional power, then you no longer need to lead people, just money. And money just isn't as valuable as people. #Blender #PayForFreeSoftware #FOSS #OSS #FreeSoftware #funding

Observer | Jeff Bezos Is Quietly Building an A.I. Dream Team at Project Prometheus by Alexandra Tremayne-Pengelly Jeff Bezos has been keeping a low profile since stepping in as co-CEO of Project Prometheus, the code name for his secretive A.I. startup, last year. But behind the scenes, he’s been busy. The company has been raising fresh capital, pursuing acquisitions and aggressively recruiting top talent across Silicon Valley. One of its newest hires is Kyle Kosic, recruited to join Bezos’s initiative after stints at OpenAI and xAI, according to the Financial Times. Kosic joins a fast-growing team filled with alumni from major tech companies. Like many of Project Prometheus’s recruits, he specializes in A.I. infrastructure. Such skills will be crucial as the company aims to transform engineering and manufacturing through automation powered by A.I. Project Prometheus gives Bezos’s first operational position since stepping down as Amazon’s CEO in 2021. Although he remains the founder of Blue Origin, he’s no longer its chief executive. At Project Prometheus, however, he shares leadership duties with co-founder Vikram Bajaj, a former Google X researcher who also co-founded the life sciences venture Verily and the investment firm Foresite Capital. Since launching in 2025, Project Prometheus has expanded rapidly, filling offices in San Francisco, London and Zurich. Investors have taken notice. The startup raised $6.2 billion last year and now seeks another $6 billion to develop A.I. systems that move beyond large language models (LLMs) toward physical applications in real-world industries. Bezos and Bajaj are also reportedly in talks to raise a separate $100 million fund to acquire manufacturing companies in sectors such as semiconductors, defense and aerospace that could benefit from A.I. automation.
