Happy Sunday friends,

With the bubble in artificial intelligence looming over the economy, Donald Trump has decided he is in possession of “extreme intelligence” because he passed his fourth cognitive exam in 12 months.

As a reminder, the MOCA does not measure intelligence. It measures whether you are functioning normally, or have cognitive deficiencies. The simple fact that he has taken so many means that he is being monitored for cognitive problems. It is not normal to take these so often—at all.

On the same day he bragged about acing his cognitive test, Trump also posted this stuff in a multi-hour manic episode. This is apparently what you get when you combine “extreme intelligence” with “artificial intelligence”—malignant slop.

All joking aside, this is not sustainable. His obvious disorders are having a deep, lasting impact on all of our lives. And they have only one direction.

Please join me and our truly intelligent community to discuss the events of the week and the state of the world. We’ll talk about the oligarchs bunkering down, the current state of the AI bubble, and whatever else is on your mind. Hope to see you. Details below.
