It really is one of the best movies every made.

Remember the classical definition of inflation: when the money supply grows without a corresponding increase in production. here, we see evidence that money supply is growing without inflation = growth in production starting to match growth in money supply. This should strengthen as more and more of the trade deal monies flow in to build energy, infrastructure, and industrial plant.

Anthropic is lying. The @DeptofWar doesn’t do mass surveillance as that is already illegal. What we are talking about is allowing our warfighters to use AI without having to call @DarioAmodei for permission to shoot down an enemy drone swarms that would kill Americans. #CallDario https://t.co/43PpyvCVzN

Given what you hear at most fast food restaurants……. The AI will not have good things to report.
Since most are staffed by high schoolers, or at least younger people, there will be a lot of bad words as that is what you hear if you listen to the workers talk. Especially when it is a little slower.
So...why were they trying to work out an agreement with a radical woke left company to start with?

The usual name calling reserved for those who slow Trump's plans. You know if Anthropic came back with a deal acceptable to the DoW, he'd be calling them a great American company tomorrow.
Either the DoW has different standards for OAI vs Anthropic, or Altman is being misleading in this tweet.

Not a formula from a textbook but real economic metrics dated today or there about.
they are widely available on the internet - the inflation numbers.
they are widely available in college textbooks - the definition of inflation.
This is a very simple economics 101 concept: inflation occurs when the growth in money supply exceeds the growth in production.
Ergo, when money supply expands and inflation does not, it means production is expanding commensurately.

That is one explanation, there are others that does not mean an increase in production. You are over simplifying.
Did we have higher productivity in some sectors? Yes.
Did prices come down for some goods? Yes.
Did prices for consumers come down? Some.
It is a mixed bag, it is too simplistic to say productivity is down or even that inflation is down? On what? Housing? No. Gas? Yes. Groceries? No.
It is a mixed bag. But, it seems to make you feel better. So, I will go along. Yay...

LOL you just explained what I said. There are any number of reasons WHY growth in productivity and growth in money supply might be approximately equal. But if they are, inflation numbers will reflect that. And they do at this time

There are other reasons that happens. You are also taking a very Macro approach, in all fairness most Presidents do, there are areas of concern with this economy.
If not, I agree with you.
FLBear, one thing I have seen many times this primary season, is how this candidate or that will do things which are actually beyond the scope of the office they seek.
Democrats assuring us they personally will impeach the President, Republicans running for state offices who will personally prevent Congress from providing money to Illegal Aliens, and both parties run candidates who assure us they will personally act with authority either available only to the legislative body as a whole, or take actions beyond the scope of their entire group, such as the Senatorial candidate who promised to personally change IRS rules.
My point is that politicians don't just lie, they do so commonly and with such expanse that even they don't seem to realize when they are leaving the realm of the credible. This is especially the case with Economics.
Sitting Presidents have long taken credit for anything which goes right in the Economy, and as we saw with Biden even taking credit for things which did not happen at all. Similarly, Presidents love to exaggerate their influence and power in economic matters, and certainly this is true regarding prices.
Generally, Presidents are very much able to make things worse, rarely can they make things better all on their own.
That's what we are seeing here.
