qwant news | Exclusive | Palantir's Alex Karp is assembling a $75M compound in Miami Beach -- after shelling out $28.5M for a waterfront teardown AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information. Billionaire Palantir CEO Alex Karp is assembling a $75 million waterfront compound in Miami Beach, securing 265 feet of water frontage across two adjacent properties: a $28.5 million teardown at 29 East San Marino Drive on the Venetian Islands, which includes a 1935 bungalow, pool and dock on a third‑of‑an‑acre lot with 105 feet of frontage, and a nearby parcel he bought last summer for $46 million at 55 East San Marino Drive. Both acquisitions were made through anonymous shell companies and brokered by Joel Lusky of Brokerage South Florida Real Estate, and Karp plans to combine them into a single, expansive compound. The purchases coincide with Palantir’s recent relocation of its headquarters from Denver to Aventura, Florida, and reflect a broader trend of tech billionaires—including Peter Thiel, Mark Zuckerberg, Larry Page and Sergey Brin—investing heavily in luxury Miami‑area real estate.

Jeff Bezos is hoping ONE WEEK from today when he chairs the Met Gala that he’ll be celebrated and pictured with Beyonce. F*ck that. We’re exposing the truth: Amazon's servers are used to track and deport people for ICE. Thanks to the 1000 people who’ve funded these ads.

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.

Yahoo Finance | Jeff Bezos Delayed Launching Amazon Because He Realized He'd Probably 'Know Nothing' By The Time He Turned 70: Here's What He Did Instead Before building one of the world's most valuable companies, Jeff Bezos chose patience over impulse—delaying entrepreneurship to better understand business and the world. After graduating from Princeton in 1986, Bezos briefly considered launching a startup with friends. But he ultimately stepped back, believing he lacked the experience needed to succeed. Speaking at the Academy of Achievement in 2016, Bezos said he decided it would be "smarter to wait and learn a little bit more about business and the way the world works." Bezos believed that young people often overestimate their understanding. "It's very hard to believe when you're 22 or 23 years old that you don't already know everything," he said. He added that he could only imagine that by the time he turned 70, he would realize he knew nothing—a perspective that pushed him to prioritize learning over rushing into entrepreneurship. This mindset of humility and continuous learning became a cornerstone of his approach to business and innovation. Instead of founding a company right away, Bezos joined a New York startup focused on financial networks and later worked at firms including Bankers Trust. He spent years working at the intersection of computing and finance, eventually entering the world of quantitative trading, where algorithms executed stock trades. While working on Wall Street, Bezos discovered that internet usage was growing at an astonishing rate—about 2,300% annually. That insight led him to launch Amazon in 1994 as an online bookstore. Amazon went public in 1997 at $18 per share and has since grown into a company with a market capitalization of over $2 trillion. Bezos stepped down as CEO in 2021 and currently has a net worth of $232 billion, according to the Bloomberg Billionaire Index.

yahoo news | ... Sanders Says Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos And Mark Zuckerberg Among Other... Sen. Bernie Sanders (I‑Vt.) used a Senate floor speech on March 24 to launch a broad attack on the artificial‑intelligence boom, singling out what he called “the Big Tech oligarchs.” In a post on X, Sanders listed Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg and Larry Ellison as the investors driving the current AI and robotics surge, arguing that they are pouring “hundreds of billions of dollars” into technologies that enrich a handful of billionaires rather than address the needs of working families. He cited Musk’s warning that AI and robots could replace all jobs, Bezos’s plan to raise $100 billion to automate factories, and Ellison’s vision of constant AI surveillance, saying Congress is failing to confront the consequences of their agenda. Beyond criticism, Sanders outlined a policy package aimed at curbing the power of the tech elite. He reiterated a Senate HELP Committee minority staff report that backs a 32‑hour workweek with full pay, bans stock buybacks, and insists that AI‑generated profits should flow to workers instead of executives and shareholders. He also called for a moratorium on new AI data centers, warning they threaten jobs, democracy and public resources, and pressed broader “tax‑the‑rich” measures to limit billionaire influence. Sanders warned that the AI wave could have far‑reaching social costs: it could displace nearly 100 million U.S. jobs over the next decade, amplify deep‑fake misinformation, harm children’s mental health, strain power grids through massive data‑center demands, and, in the worst case, pose an existential risk if superintelligent systems escape human control. He concluded that Congress’s response, or lack thereof, will be the true test of whether the nation can protect working families from an AI agenda that serves only a privileged few.

Just read this sobering retrospective from @NiemanLab on Jeff Bezos and the Washington Post. It tracks the arc from 2013—when Bezos was the "badass" billionaire savior of journalism—to February 2026, where he has largely gone silent during a "bloodbath" of layoffs (30% of the newsroom) and a pivot toward "free market" editorializing. The piece highlights: The 300+ jobs cut yesterday (Feb 4), including bureaus and the Amazon reporter. The shift from "curious steward" to distant owner. How the 2024 non-endorsement was just the start of a broader "preemptive obedience" to power. It’s a case study in how quickly a "pillar of democracy" can be hollowed out when its ownership priorities shift.

"When the Washington Post reporter's home was searched, her computer, her phone were seized, and The owner of the Washington Post, Jeff Bezos, said nothing. He still has said nothing. This is the reaction you get from legacy media when their reporters are abused." #DonLemon #GeorgiaFort #Trump #media #journalists #FirstAmendment #normalization #JeffBezos #WashingtonPost /10
