'AI No Longer Needs Us'
WASHINGTON, May 31, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- For decades, artificial intelligence has worked for us — serving as an assistant, tool, or upgrade.
But according to one former hedge fund manager, Enrique Abeyta, that era is ending.
In his recent briefing, Abeyta shows that the turning point is Dojo — Elon Musk's in-house supercomputer and chip architecture that trains machines using real-world input, not human code.
'This is the moment we go from command-and-control to true autonomy,' Abeyta says. 'This is the break point — when the machine doesn't wait for us anymore.'
It Learns Like You. But Better.
Musk's Dojo platform processes 160 billion frames of real-world video every day — learning how to see, move, react, and adapt with no human oversight.
'With the latest software… Elon Musk's AI can already drive a car without any help from humans,' Abeyta confirms.
And on June 1st, Tesla is expected to launch its first robotaxi, a vehicle with no steering wheel, no pedals, and no human fallback.
From Scarcity to Sovereignty
Dojo was created out of necessity. When Musk faced delays and chip shortages from Nvidia, he didn't wait.
He built his own chip — one now reported to be six times more powerful than Nvidia's top-selling model.
'I think this requires that we put a lot more effort on Dojo… I see a path to being competitive with Nvidia,' Musk stated.
The result is a fully integrated, closed-loop learning system — controlled entirely by Tesla.
It Won't Stop at Cars
Abeyta says Dojo is more than a car brain — it's a general-purpose vision AI architecture capable of expanding into dozens of industries.
From robotics to logistics, from surveillance to medical imaging — it's a plug-and-play AI brain that sees and decides in real time.
Morgan Stanley echoes that:
'Dojo applications longer-term can extend beyond the auto industry. It can lay the foundation for vision-based AI models.'
Dojo and Washington: A Quiet Alignment
Behind the scenes, Dojo has already received quiet backing from Washington.
'President Trump just signed an executive order called 'Removing Barriers to American AI Innovation,'' Abeyta notes. 'He wants to accelerate the development of AI because he understands it's a matter of national security.'
Musk's core AI partner is already 'expecting to receive billions of dollars from the Trump administration.'

Is There An Opportunity With IPD Group Limited's (ASX:IPG) 38% Undervaluation?
IPD Group's estimated fair value is AU$4.90 based on 2 Stage Free Cash Flow to Equity Current share price of AU$3.06 suggests IPD Group is potentially 38% undervalued The AU$4.24 analyst price target for IPG is 13% less than our estimate of fair value Today we'll do a simple run through of a valuation method used to estimate the attractiveness of IPD Group Limited (ASX:IPG) as an investment opportunity by projecting its future cash flows and then discounting them to today's value. One way to achieve this is by employing the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) model. There's really not all that much to it, even though it might appear quite complex. Companies can be valued in a lot of ways, so we would point out that a DCF is not perfect for every situation. Anyone interested in learning a bit more about intrinsic value should have a read of the Simply Wall St analysis model. Trump has pledged to "unleash" American oil and gas and these 15 US stocks have developments that are poised to benefit. We're using the 2-stage growth model, which simply means we take in account two stages of company's growth. In the initial period the company may have a higher growth rate and the second stage is usually assumed to have a stable growth rate. To start off with, we need to estimate the next ten years of cash flows. Where possible we use analyst estimates, but when these aren't available we extrapolate the previous free cash flow (FCF) from the last estimate or reported value. We assume companies with shrinking free cash flow will slow their rate of shrinkage, and that companies with growing free cash flow will see their growth rate slow, over this period. We do this to reflect that growth tends to slow more in the early years than it does in later years. A DCF is all about the idea that a dollar in the future is less valuable than a dollar today, and so the sum of these future cash flows is then discounted to today's value: 2025 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2031 2032 2033 2034 Levered FCF (A$, Millions) AU$30.0m AU$23.0m AU$31.7m AU$30.2m AU$29.4m AU$29.2m AU$29.3m AU$29.6m AU$30.1m AU$30.7m Growth Rate Estimate Source Analyst x4 Analyst x4 Analyst x3 Est @ -4.75% Est @ -2.44% Est @ -0.82% Est @ 0.31% Est @ 1.10% Est @ 1.66% Est @ 2.04% Present Value (A$, Millions) Discounted @ 7.8% AU$27.8 AU$19.8 AU$25.3 AU$22.4 AU$20.2 AU$18.6 AU$17.3 AU$16.3 AU$15.3 AU$14.5 ("Est" = FCF growth rate estimated by Simply Wall St)Present Value of 10-year Cash Flow (PVCF) = AU$198m We now need to calculate the Terminal Value, which accounts for all the future cash flows after this ten year period. The Gordon Growth formula is used to calculate Terminal Value at a future annual growth rate equal to the 5-year average of the 10-year government bond yield of 2.9%. We discount the terminal cash flows to today's value at a cost of equity of 7.8%. Terminal Value (TV)= FCF2034 × (1 + g) ÷ (r – g) = AU$31m× (1 + 2.9%) ÷ (7.8%– 2.9%) = AU$656m Present Value of Terminal Value (PVTV)= TV / (1 + r)10= AU$656m÷ ( 1 + 7.8%)10= AU$311m The total value, or equity value, is then the sum of the present value of the future cash flows, which in this case is AU$508m. In the final step we divide the equity value by the number of shares outstanding. Relative to the current share price of AU$3.1, the company appears quite undervalued at a 38% discount to where the stock price trades currently. The assumptions in any calculation have a big impact on the valuation, so it is better to view this as a rough estimate, not precise down to the last cent. We would point out that the most important inputs to a discounted cash flow are the discount rate and of course the actual cash flows. Part of investing is coming up with your own evaluation of a company's future performance, so try the calculation yourself and check your own assumptions. The DCF also does not consider the possible cyclicality of an industry, or a company's future capital requirements, so it does not give a full picture of a company's potential performance. Given that we are looking at IPD Group as potential shareholders, the cost of equity is used as the discount rate, rather than the cost of capital (or weighted average cost of capital, WACC) which accounts for debt. In this calculation we've used 7.8%, which is based on a levered beta of 1.112. Beta is a measure of a stock's volatility, compared to the market as a whole. We get our beta from the industry average beta of globally comparable companies, with an imposed limit between 0.8 and 2.0, which is a reasonable range for a stable business. See our latest analysis for IPD Group Strength Earnings growth over the past year exceeded the industry. Debt is not viewed as a risk. Dividends are covered by earnings and cash flows. Weakness Dividend is low compared to the top 25% of dividend payers in the Trade Distributors market. Opportunity Annual revenue is forecast to grow faster than the Australian market. Trading below our estimate of fair value by more than 20%. Threat Annual earnings are forecast to grow slower than the Australian market. Whilst important, the DCF calculation ideally won't be the sole piece of analysis you scrutinize for a company. DCF models are not the be-all and end-all of investment valuation. Instead the best use for a DCF model is to test certain assumptions and theories to see if they would lead to the company being undervalued or overvalued. For instance, if the terminal value growth rate is adjusted slightly, it can dramatically alter the overall result. Why is the intrinsic value higher than the current share price?

Todd Chrisley claims he was treated differently than Black inmates in prison
Todd Chrisley claimed that he witnessed systemic issues firsthand while he was in prison. After being released from FPC Pensacola in Florida thanks to President Donald Trump's pardon, Todd, 56, opened up about his experience behind bars during a press conference in Nashville on Friday. 'I have met some wonderful men. I have listened to some horrific stories about things that have gone on in our system,' Todd said with his daughter, Savannah Chrisley, by his side. 'I will continue to fight for all of the guys that I dealt with and that I was blessed to be with at FPC Pensacola,' the 'Chrisley Knows Best' star stated. 'I will continue to expose the injustices that go on there and throughout the Bureau of Prisons.' Todd continued, 'Being in the prison system, anyone that says that it's a fair shake — it's not. 'Because I dealt with young African-American males in the prison that I was in that were not treated the same.' 'They were denied programming. They were denied access to certain things,' he claimed. 'I was not denied that, but we know why I wasn't denied that. And so I think that that is a much bigger picture that we all as a society as a whole need to look at: that we are one.' Todd also revealed what his fellow inmates' reactions were to his release. 'When I left that day, there was only 317 men at our camp, but they were lined up shouting when I was walking out and they were saying 'Dont forget us, don't forget us' and my commitment is to them that I will never forget them,' Todd shared. Todd and his wife, Julie Chrisley, were pardoned by Trump, 78, after they were convicted of faking documents to obtain over $30 million in loans, and then dumping them by declaring bankruptcy. Todd, 56, was released from his 12-year prison sentence at Florida's FPC Pensacola, while Julie, 52, was pardoned from her seven-year stretch at FMC Lexington in Kentucky. They each served a little over two years of their sentences. During the news conference, Todd insisted that his conviction was unjust. 'Even though this pardon has happened, I still was convicted of something that I did not do,' he said. 'It could be you. It could be any of you,' Todd told the group of reporters. 'And somewhere in this room, someone has had a family member who has been affected by this system. I understand the shame that's around it, but I refuse to feed into that because shame is like a cancer that just spreads, and I have no shame.' Todd and Julie, who have been married since 1996, reunited at their Tennessee home after their prison releases in front of the cameras for a new reality show. Savannah, who fought for her parents' freedom, told People that it's 'been amazing' to have Todd and Julie home. 'We were going to bed last night. We're like, 'Is this real?' And then, I wake up this morning and my mom's walking into my bedroom and I'm like, it's absolutely insane!' she said.

Trump Official Backpedals as Wild ‘Trauma' Plot Exposed
President Donald Trump's budget chief got cornered for saying government workers deserve to be 'in trauma.' 'We want the bureaucrats to be traumatically affected,' Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought had said in remarks obtained by ProPublica. 'When they wake up in the morning. We want them to not want to go to work because they are increasingly viewed as the villains.' 'We want to put them in trauma,' Vought added. CNN host Dana Bash took Vought to task for the remarks in an interview Sunday. 'Is that your goal as OMB director?' she asked. Vought attempted to backpedal, accusing Bash of having 'jerry-picked' his quotes. 'What I was referring to there was the bureaucracy,' he said. 'We do believe there is weaponized bureaucracy. We do believe that there are people who have been part of administrations that are fundamentally woke and weaponized against the American people.' Vought went on to further qualify his comments by insisting he believes there are 'great people' in his department as well as at the Federal Aviation Authority and the National Institutes of Health, who he says 'are doing hard work and important public service activities.' Having chastised Bash for not providing 'the full context' of his comments, Vought continued to rail against the "Deep State." 'We're not going to be pushed, receive push-back from the notion that we're going to dramatically change the deep woke and weaponized administrative state,' Vought said. His interview with CNN comes as Elon Musk steps back from his role as head of DOGE, which is estimated to have cut up to two million jobs from the federal workforce over the past several months. As OMB director, Vought has been critical in implementing that initiative's goals, and is even rumored to be tipped to replace Musk as its chief. He was also one of the authors of the Heritage Foundation's notorious Project 2025 report, which offered a blueprint for Trump's second term that included, among other things, slashing the federal government back to the bone.
