Trump just held the most important tech dinner in history.
33 Silicon Valley CEOs pledged over $1.2 TRILLION to build America's AI empire while dining in the renovated Rose Garden.
But one person was notably missing...
Here's what this power meeting really means: 🧵 https://t.co/IuDdZImoHR
The guest list read like a who's who of digital power:
Mark Zuckerberg, Tim Cook, Sam Altman, Bill Gates, Sundar Pichai, Satya Nadella, and 27 other tech titans.
All bowing down to Trump in a scene that looked like a mafia summit disguised as a state dinner. https://t.co/OJ7Im54jaV
The numbers are crazy.
Meta's Zuckerberg: "At least $600B through 2028" for AI infrastructure
Apple's Cook: Another "$600B investment in the United States"
That's $1.2T pledged in one room.
For context, that's more than the GDP of most countries - committed to AI dominance. https://t.co/ueUHJWqyRX
But the real story is what happened before dinner.
Melania Trump hosted an AI Education task force meeting where she declared: "The robots are here. Our future is no longer science fiction."
They're announcing the post-human future at K-12 education summits. https://t.co/EC9VrY6OMX
The meeting was theater at its finest.
Trump made Zuckerberg uncomfortable, joking: "This is the beginning of your political career"
Translation? Tech CEOs are now expected to play politics, not just build products.
The era of "tech staying out of politics" is officially dead. https://t.co/ntccPSjS66
Meanwhile, the biggest shock was who WASN'T there.
Elon Musk claimed he "was invited but unfortunately could not attend"
But reports suggest he wasn't actually on the guest list.
The richest man in the world - frozen out of the AI power summit.
That tells you everything. https://t.co/ccFhC6wsWN
Trump's opening remarks revealed the real agenda:
"We're making it very easy for you in terms of electric capacity and getting it for you, getting your permits. We're leading China by a lot."
This isn't just about innovation...
It's about America vs China in the AI arms race. https://t.co/Cp3U9DUgf0
Each CEO took turns offering public tribute:
Altman: "Thank you for being such a pro-business, pro-innovation President. It's a very refreshing."
Sergey Brin: "The fact that your Administration is supporting our companies instead of fighting with them - it's hugely important." https://t.co/nQ1kq8FQQP
The regulatory capture is now complete:
Oracle's Safra Catz: "You've unleashed American innovation and creativity... making it possible for America to win."
Translation? Regulations that constrain AI development will disappear in exchange for political loyalty. https://t.co/PbUwu1L4SU
Bill Gates's attendance was particularly telling:
Despite "policy disagreements in the past, Gates praised Trump for his 'incredible leadership'"
When the world's former richest man bends the knee, you know it's serious. https://t.co/A79XPdQ2dt
The long-term strategy?
Melania's AI Education initiative targets K-12 students for "AI literacy and coding skills."
They're not just building the technology - they're programming the generation that will live under it.
Indoctrination disguised as education. https://t.co/f8cJeMDvVM
But here's what the dinner really represented:
The formal merger of Silicon Valley and Washington D.C.
Tech companies are no longer private enterprises - they're extensions of state power.
And state power is directing them toward one goal: AI supremacy over China. https://t.co/7wovt5KdCG
The absence of public scrutiny is controversial.
$1.2T in AI investments announced.
K-12 AI education programs launched.
Regulatory barriers removed.
All decided by 33 people over dinner.
Zero democratic input. Zero public debate. https://t.co/XAk1OUOcWf
What this means for independent creators:
When Big Tech and Big Government merge into one AI-military-industrial complex, we need communities that exist outside their control.
Your creativity, your data, your future - can't be decided by dinner parties in Rose Gardens.
And the Musk exclusion reveals the new rules:
Even the richest person alive gets frozen out if he doesn't play ball with the political establishment.
Loyalty to power matters more than innovation, wealth, or achievement.
The age of techno-authoritarianism has arrived. https://t.co/t0ewJqiRF0
This dinner happened while AI safety experts warn we're racing toward superintelligence without controls.
Instead of slowing down to solve safety, they're accelerating with government backing.
"Move fast and break democracy" is now official policy.
But maybe speed is needed? https://t.co/NZ43MiPVZF
Our key takeway:
The window for independent AI development is closing fast.
When $1.2 trillion flows to approved companies with political connections, everyone else gets pushed out.
Build alternatives now, or become subjects of the AI empire later.
