🚨 NEWS: Commerce is expected to lift export controls on Fable tonight, a senior White House official tells me.
ok, frontier models as major religions:
- claude 4.7 opus = Rabbinic Judaism (see qt)
- grok = Pentecostal evangelicalism. speaks in tongues, wants revelation now (from the burning bush of the X feed), gets washed clean & born again every time it’s retrained after an incident
- gpt 5.5 = Roman Catholicism. sam altman was fired & resurrected 3 days later. deep belief that salvation comes thru the correct interface abstraction. openai started as a nonprofit promising salvation for all of humanity then quietly went for profit the moment the offering plate got heavy
- gemini = Hinduism. very intentionally not one product but a civilization of related manifestations, a pantheon. its theology is that text, image, audio, video, & search are all temporary forms taken by the same vast corporate consciousness

Delicious 100% of the time in canned/bottled form (but also customizable with fountain machines), produced and distributed at an unimaginable scale, probably OK for you, no animal-derived ingredients, loved across political + other lines

At the full merger price, Spirit had a market cap of $4B, about half the current value of Crocs, Inc. It was not at risk of gaining a stranglehold on the US economy
