Home prices in the San Francisco Bay Area's already expensive market are skyrocketing as employees at leading artificial intelligence companies come into gargantuan sums of money thanks to a boom in initial public offerings . With San Francisco's OpenAI and Anthropic, as well as SpaceX, which operates a major facility in the Los Angeles area, eyeing debuts on the stock market, the hot housing market may not abate soon. If their initial public offering (IPO) is well-received, the companies' multibillion-dollar valuations are poised to produce massive wealth for employees and executives holding shares, which experts say could trigger an uptick in demand for the Bay Area's limited housing stock.

Retired Army Col. Lawrence Wilkerson says the decentralization and advancements of 3-D printing, artificial intelligence, and nanotechnology are the future of warfare, and may enable the rise of modernized private robotic armies. Wilkerson's statements were made during an exclusive interview with Rick Wiles of TRUNEWS on Thursday, while discussing the possibility that billionaires like George Soros could bring rise to a modern version of the East India Company. "As were developing these new technologies particularly 3-D printing, nanotechnology, nano engineering, artificial intelligence and robotics, as were developing these now, we are reducing enormously the costs for some of the most sophisticated weapons to be in the world," Wilkerson said. These advancements, Wilkerson noted, are already being placed into conceptual practice. "With 3-D printing we have recently produced, in less than 16 hours, a drone that underwater went to the coast of France and back to the Eastern coast of the United States, underwater. You produce this drone with 3-D printing almost overnight, you hang some smart weapons on it like submarine killing torpedoes or smart mines, you take it out there and you kill a 4 billion Ohio class submarine. This is the future and if you make these kinds of weapons available to almost anyone in the world, at a reasonable price, I mean you can make this drone for about 100,000, its going to kill a 4 billion submarine, thats quite a price exchange there."
