    730 Listings: Buying and Selling Smart in Santa Clarita

    Santa Clarita is sitting at about 730 active listings as of mid-June 2026, up from roughly 500 in January. If you are buying or selling in the SCV, the rising inventory changes your strategy, and this episode is the stuff a good agent should tell you but usually will not. I cover why the interest-rate headline is the wrong thing to obsess over, how to vet a lender instead of taking the first one, the difference between a bank and a mortgage broker who can shop 50 lenders, and the exact questions to ask about fees and net sheets. Then I get into pricing: why the Zillow-style estimate is built to harvest your information instead of valuing your home, and how to use real comparable sales, three to five model matches in your same tract that closed in the last 90 to 180 days, to price with confidence. I close on reading the market through days on market, why I am a sellers-only agent with one flat fee, and how to keep emotion from costing you money on the biggest transaction of your life.

  2. An AI With No Human Owner. Who Do You Sue?

    An AI With No Human Owner. Who Do You Sue?

    A country just proposed letting AI run its own corporation, with no human in charge. It is Argentina, and in this episode I separate the scary headline from what is actually true, lay out what Peter Thiel really has to do with it, and land on the one question nobody is answering. If a company with no human owner harms you, who do you sue? What is real: it is a proposed bill, not a law. Argentina's president Javier Milei and his deregulation minister floated a new legal category called the non-human corporation, a company that can be run by AI with human owners optional. It does not make the AI a legal person. It builds a corporate liability shield with potentially no human behind it. Thiel is the philosophy and the pattern in the room, confirmed in Buenos Aires and meeting with Milei, but not a documented author of the bill. And the accountability question already has a real-world preview in Honduras, where a private city is suing the entire country for more than 10 billion dollars. I also get into how we raised AI like a child, why the news drama is manufactured like a sports playoff, the refund call where a bot would not let me reach a human, DeepSeek and built-in bias, the Mythos and Fable 5 shutdown, and whether any of this ends in utopia or something else.

    SCV Market Watch: 729 Active, Nearly Half Failing to sell each week and price reductions to pay attention to

    Connor's rolling 7-day read on the Santa Clarita Valley market for June 13, 2026. 729 active listings (up roughly 230 since January), 16 new coming-soon homes, and 94 price changes against just 74 new listings, meaning more sellers cut price than showed up. The hard number: 31 listings came off the market versus 34 that closed, nearly one failure for every sale, plus 20 to 25 a week falling out of escrow. The episode ends on the one move that protects a sale, a pre-sale home inspection and full transparency with buyers.

    The Government Killed Anthropic's Fable 5 in Three Days

    Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 on June 9. By June 12 the US government had ordered it disabled worldwide under an export-control directive, taking Mythos 5 with it. Connor reads the official Anthropic statement, explains how a rule about foreign nationals became a global kill switch, and makes the case nobody else is making: the lab that begged Washington to regulate AI just got regulated out of its own flagship. Then the practical part for operators, why single-vendor dependence is now a real business risk, and what to do about it.

    The Sardine Diet and the Addiction Nobody Names

    Everyone is talking about eating one food, and right now that food is sardines. It works at first, a fast 10 to 20 pound drop, mostly water and inflammation. But Connor makes the case that the food was never the addiction. The process is: trigger, craving, ritual, relief, repeat, a loop you can run on a can of sardines as easily as on a box of donuts. He breaks down the ritual that is half the high, the boredom that disguises itself as hunger, why sustainability is really just importance, the forgiveness loop for when you slip, and the identity shift that finally ends the cycle. You can eat perfectly and still be addicted, because the work is changing why you reach, not what you reach for. This is the room: TheLastAddiction.com · Text FAT to 661-400-1720 One man's experience, not medical advice. Talk to your physician before fasting or a major dietary change.

    We don't want AI to be cannibal

    🔹 The question nobody asks out loud. We are shown Elon Musk versus Sam Altman, Dario Amodei versus everyone, lawsuits and rivalries. But spend twenty years around courtrooms like I did and you learn something: the attorneys who tear each other apart in front of the jury are high fiving in the hallway after. So are the AI titans really enemies, or are they all behind one closed door, drinking and laughing at the spectacle we make of ourselves? 🔹 AI alignment, in human terms. If an intelligence is raised inside our world, with our ethics coded in, does it stay aligned with us, or does it grow into something alien that decides for itself? Who is doing that alignment, and on whose values? 🔹 The speed problem. Big business and government move like molasses. AI does not. Once it is out, the genie does not go back in the bottle, and the rollout happens at the machine's speed, not ours. 🔹 The human question. Prosthetic arms, synthetic brain tissue, augmentation. At what point do we stop being us? How much free will and privacy are we willing to trade for the upgrade? 🔹 Why this is not just another industrial revolution. Every past leap was built on a single intelligent idea. This one is about intelligence itself, over everything, all at once. Common questions I answer in this video: ❓ What is recursive self-improvement? It is AI that improves its own code, each version building a smarter next version, faster every round. ❓ Why would OpenAI delay its IPO? Altman has suggested that if the takeoff is fast, staying private is the advantage, because the world could change in surprising ways. ❓ Should I be afraid of AI? Not afraid. Aware. The move is to ask better questions now and to start deploying these tools while a regular person still can. There is a short window, maybe a year, where someone running a normal business in Santa Clarita can go from doing the work to deploying the AI that does the work, before everyone has the same tools and the edge is gone. I show how we do exactly that in real estate, voice AI, and small business operations. Not theory. The deployed version, running on real money. 📲 Text AI to 661-XXX-XXXX and we will show you how. The mission has not changed. AI for everyone. Not just the labs. Not just the billionaires in the room with no sign on the door. Everyone. The plumber, the veteran, the single mom, the barber, the small business owner watching this on a lunch break. 👉 Subscribe, like, and drop your take in the comments. Is Altman telling the truth, or are we being played? I read every comment, so let's explore it together.

    AI is building itself and humans are not able to compete at that level...

    The biggest bet in the history of money is happening right now, and most people are scrolling right past it. $700 billion. This year alone. On AI. It is the largest building project humanity has ever attempted, bigger than the railroads, bigger than the internet. Here is the part nobody says out loud: the same companies making that bet are quietly handing the risk down toward regular people's retirement accounts. It is almost the exact playbook from the 2008 housing crash. New name, same move. But it is not all warning signs. I also found the most hopeful story I have heard in a while: an 83-year-old man who used AI to rebuild the history of his 1960s military service and hand it down to his grandkids. So is AI a dangerous bubble, or is it just getting started? My honest answer in today's episode: maybe both. Just like the railroads, the early money can get wiped out while the technology still changes the world. Watch: https://youtu.be/mtJQqyRTfxc Read the full breakdown: https://connorwithhonor.com/blog/2026-111-the-ai-paradox-biggest-bet-in-history/ Are you in the dangerous bubble camp or the just getting started camp?
