Cosmosent "News"

📌 If we were running the show,
we would have already enacted New Law to throttle Agentic AI,
& outright ban AI "recursive" self-learning.

📌 We're now using our App Store Critics Corner webpage for our Auto Division.

📌 FYI, every now & then we move everything on this webpage to our Offline Servers.
We last did so at 3 PM Fri, Sept 4, 2026.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 4 PM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Oct 16, 2026

We've decided we will NOT be releasing the app's Next-Gen Multi View Capture (NG MVC) support to the General Public.

Instead, we're simply gonna keep it In House.

The gist, it's NOT a good fit for Apple's App Store consumers, very-likely too advanced.

Plus, we want to use it In House to produce & license our own custom content.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Oct 16, 2026

Photosets has a brand-new Business Strategy !

It's an innovative twist on what our Auto Division is currently using for our 250 OEM+ E90 Restomods & Perf Kit.

Look for the sentance that starts "After we list" on our App Store Critics Corner webpage.

Those sufficiently Skilled in the Art should have NO problem putting the pieces of the puzzle together.

As it pertains to Photosets, that is.

ALL others will need to wait for the official (detailed) announcement.

Of course it helps to know what we've been working on the past six plus months.

If you need a hint, we'll provide one, think in terms of "Brand Ambassadors" & Photosets' (UN-released) Next-Gen Multi View Capture support.

And specifically here, using a Strategy that Apple does NOT natively support.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 PM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Oct 15, 2026

FYI, as promised, more Results to Share.

The Perf was down slightly relative to "On a Cold Morning along the Coast".

For clarity, these are the numbers we plan to go to market with.

Better to under-Promise & over-Deliver, than the other way around.

Also for clarity, the new Tesla Roadster is NOT a direct competitor.

ONLY Manual RWD sedans with Hydraulic-assist steering are direct competitors.

On a Warm Night along the Coast here in Southern California ...

First, the Mods: Airbox charcoal filter delete + BMC high-flow oiled air filter +
forged ~17.7 lb 17x8.5 ET33 wheels + PS4S 245/40-17 tires + M3 arms + Bilstein B6

Note: ALL tests performed with the stock (Manual) 3.23 rear gears,
with PS4S 245/40-17 rear tires.

Apple's latest Dev Prog Lic Agreement has NEW RULES for using their SW & Services.

But in the email they sent out, there are NO details.

The relevant section is 3.2.

We will ask Mac Rumors to investigate.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Oct 15, 2026

WTF is wrong with CNBC ?

For them to let Brad Gerstner rant like he just did is just IN-excusable !

Gerstner has a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed.

To us, Gerstner is simply just an AI Cheerleader, & as such, should be forced (by CNBC) to wear a Cheerleader Skirt whenever he is on CNBC !

To us, SpaceX, Anthropic, OpenAI & the other AI High Flyers have been valued 4x-6x higher than Fair Value.

Just look at where they ALL were just 18 months ago.

Also, Gertner's comments today about AI & how it relates to SW Development are just plain stupid.

He doesn't know shit !

We're 100% convinced of that.

We believe he's a Fool, a BIG time Fool.

On a side note, we just want to remind everyone that we've been stating for quite some time now, that we believe CNBC should be asking everyone on their program who gives their two-cents regarding AI one important question:

"Can you describe to our Audience in Detail what your most-impressive Accomplishment with AI has been ?" And we're convinced Gerstner would be one of them.

For clarity here, CNBC is the F%#king problem.

They're NOT doing their job !

And it's just sad !

There's a reason we refer to CNBC as "CNBC for Dummies".

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 4 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Oct 14, 2026

Heads Up, we'll be using Photosets' Shuttle Angle support set to 45 degrees to capture content during our upcoming Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Show with Late Bronze Age attire.

On a side note, select influential others are telling us we should abandon Apple's App Store and produce our own custom content via our own Studio.

We are seriously considering it.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Oct 13, 2026

One last thing to announce today.

We just want to pass along that we've been receiving alot of feedback lately that our Auto Division's efforts:

"will spark a massive Renaissance for the N52 platform"

On a side note, it hit us today that Apple spent $10B USD on their Apple Car and has nothing to show for it.

We've spent much, much less than that & will very-likely go down in history as being the Catalyst for an Automotive Renaissance.

Everyone who really knows cars really likes what we've accomplished.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 6 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Oct 13, 2026

We've been Asked & have Agreed, to move a copy of ALL of our most-important Auto Division-related docs to our App Store Critics Corner webpage.

We're starting that task right now.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Oct 13, 2026

Two things to announce this morning:

1.) Pre-money valuations currently sits at $1.776B USD.

i.e., $296 USD per share.

ONLY those sufficiently Skilled in the Art will know it's legit.

For clarity, we're open to selling 600K shares.

That would net us a $177.6M USD investment.

Also for clarity, we're about to make a BIG splash, potentially a very BIG splash.

One that will force Apple to do alot of explaining.

One that will also very-likely get the attention of President Trump.

Make NO mistake, we've got dirt on Apple.

Also, a reminder, our Crown Jewel is our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall reconditioning task specialty robot, Timmy, which we've named after Tim Cook.

Timmy the robot is targeted strictly to the mass-produced N52B30.

2.) Starting today, we'll be using AI as a Research Assistant to help us Fast Track our Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Shows with Late Bronze Age attire.

For clarity here, using AI as a Research Assistant in other Fields has worked-out so well for us, that we've decided to give it a try here next.

i.e., to expedite it.

The intent here is to Educate the General Public about the Late Bronze Age Collapse.

Specifically, that trade-based specialist civilizations are fragile, very fragile.

Also for clarity here, we're 100% convinced Agentic AI and/or AI "recursive" self-learning could trigger a Late Bronze Age-like Collapse.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

One last thing to announce today.

We plan to list each of our 250 OEM+ E90 Restomods for $50K+ USD.

Each will roll off the line with our Stage 1 tune.

For those who don't think 5.3 secs 0-60 OR 13.7 secs at 100 mph is good-enough, can upgrade at their leisure, as ALL our Restomods also include the Stage 2 & 3 (tune) files.

As a reminder, 250 was chosen to celebrate America's 250th Anniversary.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 5:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

It just hit us that we should be promoting the Perf & Efficiency Ratio we described in our last News Update as the Timmy E/P.

So, in one afternoon we've resurrected our Timmy P/E & added Off Balance Sheet Debt to the mix, thus making it much more relevant, & announced a brand-new Automotive benchmark.

For clarity, the Timmy P/E is targeted to the AI High Flyers, while the Timmy E/P is intended to compare & contrast N52B30-based BMW RWD sedans to Tesla RWD sedans.

As a reminder, the company's Crown Jewel is our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall Reconditioning Task Specialty Robot, which we've named Timmy, after Tim Cook.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 4:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

Two more things to announce:

1.) We've decided to resurrect the Timmy P/E, which represents a company Debt-adjusted Fwd P/E.

Initially, it just added a company's Reported Long Term Debt.

Now, we'll also be adding-in Off Balance Sheet Debt.

2.) We're looking at making our new Benchmark a De Facto Standard in the automotive industry.

Simply put, it's a Perf & Efficiency Ratio.

Ratio = (Range in miles at 85 mph) / (0-60 time + 1/4-mile time)

(table last updated 4:30 PM, Mon, Oct 12, 2026)

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 2:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

We believe Google's AI Mode is intentionally suppressing the true capture rate of Photosets, in search results today.

Here are the app's true Burst Photo Capture Specs:

📌 12 Mpx: up-to 60 photos/set at up-to 30 fps

📌 4K: up-to 60 photos/set at up-to 120 fps

📌 8 Mpx: up-to 75 photos/set at up-to 30 fps

On a side note, just our two-cents, but we believe the AI-related Off Balance Sheet Debt should be at OR near the center of every Investor's radar.

The topic was just covered briefly on CNBC's Fast Money.

Needham's Laura Martin covered it in more detail on CNBC on Fri, Oct 2nd.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

We now want to RE-post something we posted yesterday.

3.) We believe ANY normal President would have already enacted New Law to throttle Agentic AI, & outright ban AI "recursive" self-learning.
On a side note, we're looking into adding Shift Light support to Photosets.

E.g., setting it to 6250 rpm for Stage 1 & 2, OR to 6750 rpm for Stage 3.

i.e., to achieve optimum 0-60 and 1/4 mile times.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

FYI, as promised, updated results.

To ALL, we recommend you compare the Stage 2 results below with the Tesla Model 3 Long Range RWD.

Starting from a standstill, the BMW will pass the Tesla 3 LR RWD at ~80 mph.

Also, a reminder, electric motors suffer from counter-electromotive force (back-EMF) at high speeds, causing their torque curves to taper off significantly past 70 mph.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 7:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 12, 2026

Heads Up, 50% chance we release the next update of Photosets, v26.7, by week's end.

Our focus this week is on completing work on our Next Gen Multi View Capture to custom version of Duo Preview feature pivot.

When released, Users will be able to use their iPhone's High-Quality Back Wide Camera to capture Burst Photos, with the assistance of a 2nd Apple device to help them frame their shots.

For clarity, we got the idea for it when we first saw an Ad for Apple's iPhone Duo.

Also for clarity, the AI Personal Assistant features we've hinted at will piggyback on Photosets' custom version of Duo Preview.

When released NO ONE wiall be talking about Meta's Muse anymore.

By comparison, that will seem like a Toy for little kids.

On a side note, we're now Fast Tracking our Victoria's Secret-like Fashion Show with Late Bronze Age attire.

If you know Our Story you know why that's important to us.

Also on a side note, we will be promoting our Auto Division's Stage 1 tune until the price of Oil comes back down.

And for good reason, it offers the best mileage.

450 miles at 85 mph on a single tank of gas !

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Oct 11, 2026

One more quick update regarding our newly-initiated coverage of SpaceX, Telsa, Apple, & Nvidia.

We see 99% of the Analysts on CNBC as being at the 10K foot level perspective.

We plan to present our Insights at the 2K foot level perspective.

Just like we designed our custom single-stage intake manifold to undercut the N54 manifold swap, RPM-wise, we're doing something very similar with our Stock Coverage.

How to effectively & efficiently use AI as a Research Assistant is the key takeaway, we mastered it in one area, specialty N52B30 & E90 solutions, and are now looking to do the same with four Mega Caps.

Brainstorming with AI as a Research Assistant can be very beneficial, but you really need to know what you're doing.

i.e., it helps to be an Expert in the Field you're using it.

Simply put, AI is an force-multiplier, not a substitute for thinking.

Here's a first stab at something that was just In the News (in the EU):

Tesla is fundamentally rewriting its consumer contract.
They are moving away from the Autonomous Dream
and positioning themselves as a manufacturer of premium Assisted-Driving vehicles.
If the consumer mindset shifts from 'this car will drive me' to 'this car will help me drive,' it completely changes the tech narrative, the liability structure, and how we must value the company.
Also, for clarity, one area we intend to focus on is the AI Chip Pull-Forward Demand.

Specifically, the ~% of AI Chips that have been delivered but have NOT yet gone live in their intended data centers.

And by extension, what happens to the AI Chip Companies if & when the AI Hype Bubble bursts.

A number of Analysts are looking at this, but to our knowledge, NO ONE currently has a very good handle on the numbers involved.

Very Rough estimates Yes, but nothing even close to concrete.

Insight into this topic could be extremely beneficial (to many).

We see ALL AI Chip companies, as well as the relevant memory companies, as having some level of real risk, due to the bubble bursting.

How much is TBD.

Moving forward we'll simply refer to it as the Pull-Forward AI Chip Glut.

On a side note, we want to remind ALL that Cosmosent's Crown Jewel is our ML-based specialty robot, Timmy, which performs the Alusil cylinder wall reconditioning task.

Timmy was named after Tim Cook.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 5 PM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Oct 11, 2026

Quick update regarding our newly-initiated coverage of SpaceX, Telsa, Apple, & Nvidia.

1.) We don't believe the AI Hype, NEVER did !

Especially over the past 18 OR so months.

18 months ago, SpaceX was at $350B USD, Tesla was at $910B-$950B USD, Apple was at $2.9T-$3.2T USD, & Nvidia was at $2.7T USD.

We believe Fair Value for the S&P 500 is in the 6300-6500 range.

That's NOT to say we don't think it couldn't hit 8300-8500 over the next 12 months.

As of today, we estimate the odds of 6400 +- 100 to be 2/3, & the odds of 8400 +- to be 1/3.

What we're after is Insight that will greatly help us refine those odds.

Also, regarding SpaceX, they'll ONLY get $5 USD per Month per subscriber from their cellular service partner.

As such, we believe the Market has significantly OVER-reacted to the news of this past week.

To us, Fair Value for SpaceX is (way) south of $500B USD.

On Friday they closed at a Market Valuation of $2.21T USD.

That Boys & Girls very-likely represents the single-greatest financial opportunity.

i.e., developing Insight BEFORE the Market figures things out.

Which it clearly hasn't yet.

For clarity here, it was precisely the Market's OVER-reaction to the SpaceX news that is the catalyst for this effort.

It proved to us & others that the Market is Dumb, very Dumb.

2.) We'll be using AI as a Research Assistant.

Similar to how we've used it for our Auto Division.

Think AI-driven research methodology.

We refer to it as Cosmosent's human-plus-AI research methodology.

To us, the current Crown Jewel Use Case for AI.

For clarity, using AI as a Research Assistant ONLY works in Fields where the User is either already an Expert, OR is trying hard to become one.

Chat-based LLMs make alot of mistakes.

It's critically important Users detect those errors on the fly, & then immediately inform the relevant LLMs, so that research can continue down the correct path.

3.) We believe ANY normal President would have already enacted New Law to throttle Agentic AI, & outright ban AI "recursive" self-learning.

NOT doing so, means, to us, everyone MUST be prepared for "the shit hitting the Fan" on ANY given day.

Make NO mistake, trade-based specialist civilizations are fragile, very fragile.

If your're NOT familiar with the Late Bronze Age Collapse we highly recommend you get up to speed on it.

4.) If CNBC had their act together, we would NOT be able to pull this off.

But "CNBC for Dummies" is masquerading as CNBC, so we're confident we can.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Oct 11, 2026

We're now devoting 1/3 of our time to Photosets, 1/3 to our Auto Division, & 1/3 to covering SpaceX, Tesla, Apple, & Nvidia at the request of others.

The gist, potential Investors have Agreed to help us circumvent Apple's Stranglehold on App Discovery in their App Store, in exchange for us initiating Coverage on SpaceX, Telsa, Apple, & Nvidia.

i.e., much like a Pro Stock Analyst would on CNBC.

The gist here, we've been able to convince select influential others that there's a good number of NON-technical Fools giving their two-cents on CNBC.

As a reminder, we are a small team of seasoned EEs.

On a side note, we predict few who have followed Our Story over the years will be surprised if Photosets soon reaches the Top of Apple's App Store Charts.

NOT our fault that Apple Mgmt decided to take the stance that they did WRT the ONE & ONLY Flagship-caliber Burst Photo Camera App in their App Store.

Photos on one end, Videos on the other end, & Burst Photos, preferably captured in High-Res, in High-Speed, & with High-Precision Timing, in the middle.

Apple has done very well on the Ends, but piss-poor in the Middle.

We leave it to the Reader how that correlates to the $113B USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue we estimate Apple left on the table over the years, because of "their stance".

Make NO Mistake, Tim Cook & Phil Schiller have some serious explaining to do.

To high-end iPhone owners, to AAPL shareholders, & to the shareholders of Apple's own cellular service & product partners.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 2:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Oct 6, 2026

Regarding Photosets, here's a Heads Up on what we're currently working on:

📌 Transitiong the app's Next-Gen Multi View Capture support to our version of Duo Preview.

📌 Completing the select Use Case AI Personal Assistant support that we've hinted about.

📌 Adding a Fix for the recently-discovered Apple Bug (i.e., photos captured in 8x Tele mode are mirrored).

For clarity, between our Photosets Division & our Auto Division, we have NO spare cycles.

And even though to-date, Photosets has NOT done well in Apple's App Store, we're fully convinced that will change once the accomplishments of our Auto Division become Common Knowedge.

At that time we fully expect Photosets will rise to #1 OVERALL for Paid Apps in the App Store.

To date, we give Apple's App Store an F-- grade.

Leaving $113B+ USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years is IN-excusable.

Photos on one end, Videos on the other end, & Burst Photos, preferably captured in High-Res with High-Speed & with High-Precision Timing, in the middle.

Apple has done very well on the Ends, but piss-poor in the Middle.

We leave it to the Reader to figure-out precisely where that $113B+ USD comes from.

It's NOT Rocket Science !

If the Market knew what we know, Apple's Executive Chairman would have some serious explaining to do.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 2 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Oct 6, 2026

To Institutional Investors considering an Equity Stake in Cosmosent Labs, Inc., here is your requested High Level Overview of the key product attributes for our 250 OEM+ Restomods:

● Cosmosent 340 mm Al runner / 2.7L 3D-printed plenum single-stage Intake Manifold

● Cosmosent Stage 1-3 Tunes: 230 HP / 200 lb-ft, 250 HP / 220 lb-ft, 260 HP / 230 lb-ft

On a cold morning along the coast, you'll experience 206.2, 226.8, 237.1, lb-ft respectively.
● Custom Forged Apex ARC-8RT 17x8.5 ET33 wheels + PS4S 245/40-17 tires

● M3 front control arms + Bilstein B6 struts & shocks

● Donor cars are acquired as pristine, single-owner 2006-2011 E90 Automatics
& converted to Manuals with 3.23 rear gears

On a side note, contrary to what we ALL constantly hear on CNBC, we believe we're actually in the 10th Inning regarding AI.

As we've stated before, we believe CNBC should require everyone on their program who gives their two-cents regarding AI to answer a very specific question:

"Can you describe in detail to our Audience your single most impressive Accomplishment with AI ?"

As we've stated before, we believe 99% will choke on that.

And that choke, we believe, we provide a very healthy Reset for AI & ML moving forward.

For clarity, we're NOT against AI.

But we're convinced it's way OVER-Hyped relative to actual beneficial & profitable Use Cases.

Somewhere in the 4x-6x OVER-Hyped range, in fact.

Simply put, too many Finance types on CNBC with ZERO Hands-On AI & ML experience.

Make NO mistake, it's a recipe for disaster.

Today, the S&P 500 closed at 7819.

We believe its Fair Value is in the 6300-6500 range.

As such, we see the S&P 500 as being ~22% above Fair Value.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Oct 6, 2026

Late yesterday, we found out that there is path to achieve what we're after with Apex & their ARC-3 wheels, we simply need to step-up to the Forged version AND place an order for ~10+ sets.

Specifically, we've stepped-up to the ARC-8RT in 17x8.5 ET33.

The ET40 version lists for $589 USD on the Apex website & weighs 17.7 lbs & has the Profile 2 Face.

The NON-Forged ARC-8 ET40 version lists for $329 USD on the Apex website & weighs 17.2 lbs & has the Profile 1 Face.

The price delta is $260 USD per wheel.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 5, 2026

We've figured-out a strategy that enables us to move forward with a single 17x8.5 wheel that supports the PS4S 245/40-17 ALL-around without Spacers !

The gist, Fronts MUST have the M3 front control arms installed beforehand (to run PS4S 245/40-17 in the front).

● Phase 1: 225/45-17 (front) + 245/40-17 (rear)

● Phase 2: Install the M3 front control arms (+ optionally, the Bilstein B6 struts & shocks)

Here it's the additional 0.75 degrees of negative camber that is the key.
New total = 0.40 (stock) + 0.75 (M3 arms) = 1.15 degrees of negative camber.
Combined with the ET33 offset, it's the key to making 245/40-17 work in the front.
● Phase 3: Upgrade to 245/40-17 ALL-around

Make NO mistake Boys & Girs, this has Game Changer potential !

We'll send off the request tonight.

Basically, just requesting an ET33 version of Apex's existing ARC-8 17x8.5 ET40 wheel.

Also, for clarity, we designed the wheel for our 250 OEM+ E90 Restomods.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Oct 5, 2026

Late yesterday, we concluded two important things regarding the Apex ARC-8 17x8.5 we're after:

1.) ET35 very-likely has a much higher probability of getting the Green Light from Apex.

vs. ET34

ET34 is the ideal offset for the E90.

ET35 is a much more standard offset.

2.) Apex offers 3 mm & 5 mm spacers, which makes ET35 work with PS4S 245/40-17 in the front.
To properly support PS4S 245/40-17 in the front, ET35 with 3 mm and 5 mm spacer options is a better overall option than ET34 with the two spacers.

We've updated the first table below to reflect ET35.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Oct 4, 2026

We need a YouTube channel, both to promote our OEM+ E90 Restomods, & to enable Photosets to circumvent Apple's Stranglehold on App Discovery in their App Store.

For clarity, that's NOT just our own conclusion.

Important select others have been telling us that for many weeks now.

Especially as our OEM+ E90 Restomod effort has been gaining momentum.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Sat, Oct 3, 2026

FYI, as requested ...

The gist, we're gonna try to get Apex to run an Early Adopter (GangUp) Group Buy for their
ARC-8 17x8.5 wheel in ~~ET34~~ ET33 (for non-M E90s).

Specifically, in their Anthracite finish.

For clarity, we need 250 sets for our limited-run 250 OEM+ Restomods, & rather than have wheels custom-made for us to our specs, we'd much rather go this route.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 PM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Oct 2, 2026

We've made an important decision regarding our Auto Division.

We will NOT be releasing our planned $2,500 USD "Perf Kit" to the General Public, until AFTER we've listed the last of our planned 250-unit OEM+ Restomod 6-speed Manual RWD Sport Sedans.

● 2006 E90 325i

● 2007-2008 E90 328i (the pre-LCI years)

For clarity, most of our OEM+ Restomods will be Auto-to-Manual swaps.

Also for clarity, ideally, each of our OEM+ Restomods would be running Apex ARC-8 17x8 ET35 up-front & 17x8.5 ET35 in the rear.

Apex currently does NOT offer either.

Such wheels would enable us to run PS4S 225/45-17 up-front & PS4S 245/40-17 in the rear.

The wheels & tires would represent the single-best option for a High-Speed Highway Cruiser.

Which is one of our primary target markets.

As a reminder, one area where the E90 chassis truly shines is as a High-Speed Highway Cruiser.

And that's NOT even accounting for the 400+ miles at 85 mph !

Note that we've intentionally dropped the LC1 2009-2011 E90 328i.

17x8.5 ET35 in the rear simply doesn't work well for those years; sits too flush with the fender.

On a side note, we want to state that we would NOT have the confidence to pull this off if we had NOT been successfully using AI as a Research Assistant the past six plus months.

AI makes alot of mistakes, but it's also extremely useful.

It enables a small R&D Team to do truly great things !

There are NO shortcuts, however, requires tons of hours.

The very definition of Perseverance.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 1 PM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Oct 2, 2026

Three things to announce:

1.) Our focus with Photosets v26.7 is the app's Next-Gen Multi View Capture support, & the pivot we've taken with it to a custom version of Duo Preview.

Our focus with Photosets v26.8 is/are the AI Personal Assistant "Special Functions" that we've hinted at.

2.) Enthusiasm for our Auto Division's "Perf Kit" is ramping up, BIG time !

To those interested, we've NOT yet opened-up Pre-Ordering.

We're still debating whether we want to hold-off on doing so until we've made good progress on our 250 Restomods.

As a reminder, this is a limited run of 250 E90 sport sedans built to our specs.

Some refer to it as an "E90 M3 Lite," some refer to it as an "E90 CS Manual," regardless, they represent the Crown Jewel of BMW's mass-produced, naturally-aspirated sport sedans.

And BTW, the 250 was chosen to honor America's 250th anniversary.

3.) The fact that the Market has shrugged-off the risks that Agentic AI & "recursive" self-learning present simply means, to us, that when the Shit hits the Fan, the Market downturn will be significant & extremely abrupt.

To us, the S&P 500 will drop to south of 6500 in a single day.

How much farther south we have NO idea, but it will very-likely represent a new baseline moving forward for quite some time.

There's NO real justification for some private Tech Companies to be valued where they currently are.

The AI Hype on CNBC drove valuations 2x higher than Fair Value, followed by an additional 2x by the Persian Gulf Sovereign Wealth Funds, & their ties to President Trump & Kushner (who clearly is in Trump's ears).

Post-collapse we would NOT be at ALL surprised to learn that those political ties had a very BIG influence on the OVER-Hyped Valuations.

To us, the problem with/on CNBC is easily solved.

ALL they need to do is ask every single so-called Analyst OR CEO who comes on their show & gives their two-cents regarding AI:

"Please describe to our Audience your single-greatest Accomplishment with AI, & please provide details.

99% will choke on that !

We know Marketing Fluff when we see it.

Make NO mistake, it's rampant on CNBC.

For clarity, we're NOT against AI.

Using AI as a Research Assistant in a Field where the User is either already an Expert OR is trying hard to become one is where it truly shines, BIG time !

Also, don't discount the potential Late Bronze Age Collapse connection.

To us, it is very real.

And if left UN-check'd, it will happen.

Trade-based, Specialist Civilizations are very fragile.

Also on a side note, our Auto Division is now extremely-well-positioned to become ALL the Rage.

400+ miles at 85 mph, plus Very Good Perf as a Daily Driver around town.

Also, for clarity, 50% chance we sell our single-stage intake manifold & companion tunes to the General Public, 50% chance we keep them In House for our 250+ Turnkey Boutique E90 6-speed Manual RWD Restomods.

The term "Trump 2nd Term Collapse" is back in play.

One would have thought that Jensen, Elon, OR Speaker Johnson would have educated President Trump about the Late Bronze Age Collapse, but that clearly doesn't appear to be the case.

We highly recommend everyone prepare themselves and their family for living in a post-Collapse Env.

Maybe there's ONLY a 10-15% chance that it happens while Trump is still President.

But the odds are NOT zero.

Ask yourself, why are so many freshly-minted AI Billionaires building shelters in New Zealand ?

That's precisely what Trump should have asked everyone around the table today.

That would have cut to the chase.

To us, both represent EXTREME HIGH risk.

We ask You to ask yourself, how many of those sitting at President Trump's table today are Students of History ?

We doubt few, if ANY.

And for clarity, we see this as the Root Cause of the Problem.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 12 Noon (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 29, 2026

Four things to announce:

1.) We're fast tracking the release of the next update of Photosets, v26.7.

For clarity, we're pivoting Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture support to our own innovative twist on what Apple refers to as Duo Preview.

2.) Just our two cents, but we believe anyone who thinks SpaceX, Anthropic, OR OpenAI deserves a valuation greater than $500B USD is a Total Fool.

Regarding the rumor today that OpenAI is pursuing $30B USD at a pre-Money of $1.4T USD, ALL we can say, it's very likely driven by Trump's pals, the guys running the Persian Gulf Sovereign Wealth Funds.

CNBC has been, & continues to be, the AI Hype Machine.

Rarely do they have anyone on who talks about the Financial Numbers in detail, OR the very-obvious 2x/3x over-buying of AI chips.

i.e., hoarding, just like we ALL see with water, toilet paper, etc., whenever the General Public belives there may be a shortage of something they need OR want.

How & why CNBC is able to suppress knowledge of that is very puzzling.

And concerning.

We think Congress needs to investigagte.

On CNBC, it's almost always some early investor, like the dude Deeter from Sequoia earlier today,
who is clearly an AI Cheerleader.

We fully believe that when the Shit hits the Fan CNBC should be held fully accountable.

And we especially don't like the way that Jensen and some of the other Tech CEOs are able to (so easily) Play Cramer for a Fool.

3.) To ALL, it you're NOT already, we highly recommend YOU become fully educated on the Late Bronze Age Collapse.

And specifically, NOT just the factors that might have caused the Collapse, but what life was like both just-BEFORE and just-AFTER the Collapse.

The main problem with President Trump, Jensen, etc., is that they are clearly NOT Students of History.

We say that because if they were, they would NOT be so cavalier about the very-real risks that Agentic AI and "recursive" AI self-learning present.

4.) Our Auto Division is now promoting our E90 as simply a

"legacy, naturally aspirated version of BMW's $117K USD 2027 M3 CS Handschalter".

... where Handschalter simply refers to Manual transmission.

For clarity, the 2027 M3 CS Handschalter is BMW's first CS with a 6-speed Manual transmission.

On a side note, to BMW Mgmt we want to state, Valvetronic and Dual-VANOS represents your absolute pinnacle of naturally aspirated internal combustion development, but binding that brilliant brain to a standard, non-tapered, blocked-off single-stage intake manifold was like forcing an Olympic sprinter to breathe through a straw.

Here think 340 mm runners + 75 mm inside the cylinder head + 15-18 mm due to the Bellmouth end effect.

2.) We plan to offer 100 of our 250 Cosmosent Stage 2 Sport Sedans to investors.

Specifically, every individual OR company that invests $1M USD or more, will be given the Opportunity to get one of our Restomods for FREE.

These are BMWs that we buy on the open market, & fix up ourselves.

We predict they will become some of the most highly sought-after Restomods on the planet.

For clarity, we're planning to build 250 of them.

We picked 250 to honor American's 250th anniversary.

3.) Once what we're up to becomes Common Knowledge, we predict our Photosets app will climb to OR near the top of the App Store charts.

Make NO mistake, Tim Cook & Phil Schiller have some serious explaining to do.

To high-end iPhone owners, to AAPL shareholders, to the shareholders of Apple's cellular service & product partners, & possibly ALSO to President Trump.

Also, for clarity, it sounds like a "Small Exotic Naturally Aspirated V8".

Simply calling it a Game Changer might be an UNDER-statement.

How our single-stage intake manifold + companion tunes stack up

● For our Stage 1 & 2 tunes we recommend shifting at 6200-6300 RPM.

Due to backpressure, the stock Exhaust chokes past that point !
● For our Stage 3 tune we recommend shifting at 6700-6800 RPM.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 24, 2026

When consumers think something they want OR need may soon run out of stock, there's a buying frenzy.

So why then do so few Pro Stock Analysts on CNBC point-out the analogy with AL chips ?

To our knowledge, ONLY Dan Niles has ever mentioned it.

i.e., that the AI Data Center build out frenzy has resulted some, perhaps most, placing 2x & 3x orders, vs what they actually need.

We believe that once that becomes Common Knowledge, the shit will hit the fan.

For clarity here, it is Common Knowedge in certain Tech & Finance circles,
just NOT covered often on CNBC.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 24, 2026

Heads Up, Photosets v26.6 was just approved by Apple's App Store & is available for download.

The key reason to upgrade to it is the app's significantly-improved Shutter Angle support.

Please note that there is ONE known issue with v26.6.

Captured 8-bit photos are "mirrored" when using the app's Tele 2x support.

We hope to have it resolved in the next update.

We've looked into it, but couldn't figure out why it's happening.

For clarity here, v26.6 is the first version of Photosets built with Xcode v27.0.

Note also that we've currently got Photosets set to the Bare Min for Paid Apps, $0.29 USD.

Apple made a BIG deal about that price option a number of years ago, but to our knowledge, has NEVER ONCE recommended OR promoted ANY Paid Apps priced at twenty-nine cents.

It absolutely amazes us that Apple has NO App Store consumers who are clued-in-to innovatve/ledading-edge Burst Photo Technology.

As evident by the extremely old Reviews sitting in pole position for Photosets in the App Store.

ONLY way we can describe it is "Dumber than Dumb".

Apple should NEVER have someone running their App Store who has NO Engineering OR Software Development experience, & certainly NO known OR proven "Camera App" Domain/Application/Use-Case expertise.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 24, 2026

One thing the Team would like to find out is, did Apple suppress knowledge of third-party Burst Photo Camera Apps in their App Store because of our discovery of what we called the A11/A12 Performance Controller NEON Access Chip Bug ?

Which occured the day AFTER the 2018 iPhone Xr was released, & just a few days BEFORE Apple announced on Nov 1st, 2018, that they would NO longer report iPhone Unit Sales in the future.

For clarity here, we had a 2nd iOS App in the App Store at the time, called Timmy, which was the planet's ONLY per-Qtr, per-Device iPhone Unit Sales Estimator App.

It made its debut in the App Store in May of 2018 and Apple pulled it the day BEFORE their BIG iPhone announcement in Sept of 2019.

And they gave us, what we believe to be, a Total BS Reason for doing so.

BIG picture perspective, Photos on one end, Videos on the other end, & Burst Photos in the middle.

Apple has done very well on the ends, but piss-poor in the middle.

Each has their own set of Domains & Applications/Use-Cases.

We leave it to the Reader & Attorneys to "fill in the blanks".

And specifically, just how much iPhone owners, AAPL shareholders, & the shareholders of Apple's cellular service partners, may have missed out.

It's NOT Rocket Science !

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 24, 2026

We've decided we will try to get President Trump to order an investigation.

The gist, because of their stance on third-party Burst Photo Camera Apps, Apple has cheated high-end iPhone owners, AAPL shareholders, & the shareholders of their cellular service partners, out of their respective benefits of those third-party apps.

The key take-away, Apple NEVER ONCE came close to their Annual TAM because of their stance.

And by our count, Apple left $113B USD of mostly high-end iPhone revenue on the table over the years because of their stance.

That's NOT Trump change !

For clarity, we stopped analyzing the problem on April 4, 2023.

On a side note, while we are NOT fans of Elon Musk,
we believe his concerns regarding AI MUST be taken seriously.

We are NOT fans of Brad Gerstner, who was just on CNBC.

He is too much of an AI cheerleader.

He has, afterall, a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed.

For clarity, we use AI as a Research Assistant every single day.

But ONLY in fields for which we are already an Expert, OR trying hard to become one.

AI makes ALOT of mistakes !

It's important to be able to point those out to whichever LLM a person is using, the LLM responds by correcting their mistake, & things then move forward.

We are NOT fans of Agentic AI.

Agentic AI requires Privileged Access to do its thing.

Also, importantly, Agentic AI will, over time, make Humans dumber.

Also for clarity, we are very BIG fans of Industrial / Automotive / Physical AI.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 23, 2026

Two more things to announce before closing shop for the day:

1.) We're NOT opposed to stirring the pot.

Sometimes it's the ONLY way to shake things up.

And God knows things certainly need to be shaken up.

And we're NOT just referring to Apple's App Store.

NO risk, NO reward.

2.) "Like a Small Exotic V8" is our new tag line for our Auto Division's two products.

i.e., our N52B30 single-stage intake manifold & companion MSV70 tunes.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 23, 2026

We have an app that we think President Trump might like to know about.

And we're NOT referring to our Photosets, but we do think he might be intrigued by its backstory.

For clarity, we're referring to something else entirely.

Something related to President Trump that was In the News today for the first time ever.

We mention this tonight ONLY because Apple is taking their sweet ass time with Photosets.

We don't like to see it sitting idle in Apple's "Waiting for Review" Queue.

Also for clarity, (we believe) we own the rights to the app.

Even though we never had the wherewithall to publish it to the App Store.

We intended to model it after the Simpsons weekly TV series.

We could have had alot of fun with that.

If the stars align, we still can.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 4 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 22, 2026

Heads Up, the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition, for which we are the Founders, will soon be promoting the

"Anti (Late Bronze Age-Like) Collapse Initiative."

For clarity, it will focus on Agentic AI and 1859-like Carrington Events.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 22, 2026

We just listened to President Trump's speech to the U.N. General Assembly.

It doesn't surprise us that he continues to say that the Agentic AI risks are a Hoax.

This is the same guy who rarely mentions the "accelerating" U.S. National Debt problem.

Which, to us, is the single-greatest security threat to America.

With anything that could trigger a Late Bronze Age-like Collapse being #2.

And there, we include Agentic AI.

We're 100% convinced Jensen is NOT a student of history !

Because if he was, we believe he wouldn't be so cavalier about Agentic AI.

Food for thought.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 7 AM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 22, 2026

Heads Up, 50% chance we release the next update of Photosets, v26.6, later today.

The updated Shutter Angle support is in, but the transition to a Scene-based life cycle (still) needs more Field Testing.

Also, if we release v26.6 today, we plan to go with the following updated sub-title:

"1st of Autumn 2026 Edition"

Also, for clarity, v26.6 requires iOS 26.5, same as for v26.5.

We figured-out how to accomplish our Shutter Angle goals without migrating Photosets to iOS 27.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 PM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Sept 21, 2026

We're gonna need another day OR two before releasing the next update of Photosets, v26.2.

We accomplished what we wanted WRT the app's updated Shutter Angle support.

However, we hit a snag with our AppDelegate to SceneDelegate transition.

E.g., the ALL-important Camera Settings UIAlertController is ONLY presented the first time it's encountered in the code.

We ran out of time to fix it today.

We'll pick it up first thing in the morning.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Mon, Sept 21, 2026

Four things to announce:

1.) The next update of Photosets, v26.6, could be out as eary as later today.

With it, we'll be promting the app's brand-new "Flagship-caliber Shutter Angle" support.

2.) The vast majority of those on CNBC giving their two-cents regarding AI "don't know shit" !

To us, that is Crystal F%#king Clear.

And, we stand by our statement that those with a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed should be forced to wear a Cheerleading Skirt whenever giving their two-cents regarding AI on CNBC.

For clarity, could simply be an AI-generated Cheerleading Skirt in which CNBC is forced to add it, via New Law.

3.) We've said it before, we'll say it again, everyone MUST become (self) educated about the Late Bronze Age Collapse.

It's happened before, it can happen again.

And, it wouldn't take much for Agentic AI to trigger it !

Jensen needs to become educated about just how fragile trade-based, specialist civilizations actually are.

To us, he clearly does NOT know !

4.) What's happening in the Market right now is a Head Fake.

To us, the S&P500 should be trading NO higher than 6700-6900 right now.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Sept 20, 2026

Two things to announce:

1.) Yesterday was the very-first day we looked into iOS 27.

It took us less than half a work-day to figure-out the single-greatest SW benefit of iOS 27 AND incorporate it into the next update of Photosets, v26.6, out tomorrow.

We are UN-aware of anyone OR any website pointing-out this ALL-important particular iOS 27 SW benefit.

Go Figure !

2.) A reminder, Apple RE-branded what used to be called Perf cores to Super cores, and added a new middle-tier, which they now call Perf core.

The top-tier cores in the iPhone 17 Pro Max's A19 Pro are architecturally the predecessors to what Apple now calls "Super cores" in the A20 Pro.

We've received a good number of email questions regarding that topic the past few days, so we thought we should also post the answer here & now.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 PM (La Jolla-time) Sat, Sept 19, 2026

Heads Up, the next version of Photosets, v26.6, out Monday, leverages a new Apple SW feature that we consider to be the single-greatest benefit of iOS 27.

Off the radar of ALL, but should NOT be.

For clarity, it's related to Photosets' Shutter Angle support.

In v26.5, we (now) consider it to be a C+ feature simply because it lacks the new Apple SW feature.

In v26.6, we consider it to be an A++ feature in the iPhone 18P and 18PM, and an A- in ALL other iPhones & iPads that it's supported.

We've been Asked & have Agreed, to consider taking the lead in helping select others figure-out which business strategies are viable & which are NOT, WRT to RE-purposing Data Center "shells".

Also, we're starting to RE-fine a strategy in which AI Agents are constrained to such Data Centers.

i.e., they have NO way of breaking out.

And the AI Agents of others have NO way of breaking in.

i.e., the Data Center becomes a secure sandbox.

For clarity, this is perfect for Industrial / Automotive / Physical AI.

Such as for our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall reconditioning serivce.

Which we believe has a very good chance of becoming "the Reference" by which ALL other RE-purposed Data Centers will be compared to.

And BTW, the back-story of how we got here is gonna shock alot of people, including in the Apple Ecosystem.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 PM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Sept 18, 2026

To potential investors:

We'll be acquiring Data Center "shells" at a discount,
& potentially being one of the very first to RE-purpose them.

With your investment, we'll be ready to strike (& scale) the moment the AI Hype cools down, by leveraging such data centers into robotic manufacturing hubs for our proprietary,
ML-based engine reconditioning service.

if/when the AI Hype cools down, those who invested in the AI data center build-out are gonna scramble, they're gonna need references like this to point to, to show that such data centers
can in-deed be RE-purposed !

"Data Center Successfully Repurposed for Next-Gen Advanced Industrial Manufacturing."

You think the Railroad guys wouldn't have loved to have a Face-Saving solution like this ?

They would have jumped ALL over it.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 6 PM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Sept 18, 2026

FYI, as requested ...

For clarity, if we sell the intake manifold & companion tunes to the General Public, that will drive up the prices of the donor BMWs we desire for our Boutique Restomod efforts.

i.e., over time our products will become a catalyst for individuals to pursue the same set of BMWs that we'll be after.

As such, it needs to be one or the other.

Either we sell the intake manifold & companion tunes to the General Public, OR we go the Boutique Restomod route.

Can't do both.

At least NOT long term.

We believe it's prudent for us to set a limit on our Boutique Restomod efforts.

And, we've decided to go with 250, to honor the fact that this year is America's 250th Anniversary.

With this Boutique Restomod strategy we'll be perfectly comfortable selling the intake manifold & companion tunes to the General Public.

Also for clarity, our ultimate goal is to get customers to sign up for our ML-based Alusil service.

Simply put, the 250 restomods, the intake manifold, and the companion tunes are "carrots" to attract
ML-based Alusil service customers.

Now consider this, Data Center "shells" could soon become available.

And if that happens, we want to RE-purpose some for our Auto Division.

And naturally, this would be how we'd scale.

For clarity here, we'd be acquiring Data Center "shells" at a discount, & potentially being one of the very first to RE-purpose them.

Also for clarity here, customers would only be sending us their Crankcase,
they would even be holding onto their Bedplate.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 PM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 17, 2026

We've been Asked & have Agreed, to describe an important Automotive topic.

An engine needs high gas exhaust velocity to efficiently produce power in its intended powerband.

The phenomenon is referred to as scavenging.

When an exhaust valve opens, a high-pressure pulse of gas shoots down the primary exhaust runner.

If the pipe diameter is sized correctly, that pulse moves very quickly, creating a localized low-pressure vacuum directly behind it.

During the "valve overlap" period (when both the intake and exhaust valves are briefly open at the same time), that exhaust vacuum literally pulls ("scavenges") residual exhaust gas out of the chamber and actively sucks the fresh, incoming air charge from the intake manifold's runners into the cylinder.

When exhaust gas velocity drops, the scavenging vacuum effect drops.

WRT the N52B30's stock Exhaust, the scavenging vacuum effect works well up-to 6200-6300 rpm.

That's why we recommend shifting at 6200-6300 rpm when using the stock Exhaust.

For clarity, above 6200-6300, high backpressure is the root cause of the problem.

It chokes the exhaust gas velocity & in turn the scavenging vacuum effect.

Regarding the vacuum, it isn't just "directly behind" the pulse like aerodynamic drag.

It is actually a rarefaction wave (a negative pressure wave) created when the positive high-pressure exhaust pulse hits an expansion area, such as a collector or a step up in pipe diameter.

This expansion reflects a low-pressure echo wave backwards up the pipe toward the cylinder head.

If timed correctly, that returning negative wave hits the exhaust valve right during the valve overlap period.

Regarding SPCX, we think it's fair value is (way) south of $75/share.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 2 PM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 17, 2026

One more thing to announce today.

To us, the stock market went up today primarily because Speaker Johnson
sent House members home early yesterday.

Topics that could have been In the News today were NOT.

Topics that could be In the News the next 1-2 weeks, won't be.

And here we're naturally mostly referring to potential New Law that could cause the Agentic AI Build-Out to throttle-down.

With a 2nd topic being the potential Pete Hegseth impeachment.

Here we fully expect Hegseth to resign the day AFTER the Midterms, identical to what occured with another Def Sec during the Iraq War.

i.e., Donald Rumsfeld.

Puzzling to us that CNBC didn't cover ANY of this today !

There's something seriously wrong with the IQ of whoever runs CNBC.

Oblivious to the Obvious !

On a side note, we believe President Trump says the AI worries are a Hoax simply because of his close (financial) ties to the Persian Gulf Sovereign Wealth Funds.

We believe he doesn't really believe what he publicly states on the subject.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 17, 2026

FYI, as promised ...

For clarity, yesterday we dropped the intake manifold's 330 mm runner length option.

That leaves us with two, 340 mm for Street+Track, & 350 mm for Street (only).

330 mm was our Track (only) solution.

But it didn't sufficiently undercut the N54 manifold swap, RPM-wise, so we dropped it.

Also for clarity, we consider 221 lb-ft at 3250 with the 350 mm length option & our Stage 2 tune to be our Auto Division's top overall tech spec.

On a side note, today we want to add that if we simply execute according to plan we will Go Down in History.

How our custom single-stage intake manifold + custom tunes stack up

● The 350 mm "Torker" (Street) HP and torque numbers are in Bronze.

2.) To achieve the fastest 0-60 and 1/4 mile times:

● For our Stage 1 & 2 tunes: we recommend shifting at 6200-6300 RPM.

The stock Exhaust chokes past that point !
● For our Stage 3 tune: we recommend shifting at 7100 RPM.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 16, 2026

One more thing to announce today related to our Auto Division.

After much debate, we've decided to drop the intake manifold's 330 mm length option.

The gist, the 340 mm & 350 mm length options undercut the N54 manifold swap, RPM-wise.

Which was one of our main design goals.

The 330 mm length option NOT so much.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 7 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 16, 2026

Today we've been debating which Business Strategy to announce for our Auto Division.

NO decision has been made, but we wanted to provide a Heads Up because things are moving fast now.

Our Auto Division's crown jewel is our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall Reconditioning Service for the N52B30, but it is NOT yet ready for Prime Time.

Here, we're very clear with what we want to do, we want to offer it to everyone, to the General Public.

And, we plan to price it at $4999 USD.

Our estimated TAM for the service is 100K N52B30 crankcases.

Our Auto Division's two products, our custom single-stage 330/340/350 mm Al runner length, 3D-printed 2.7L plenum intake manifold & companion custom tunes, will very-likely be announced first.

Here, things are NOT clear.

We may decide to keep them In House for our Restomods, OR we may decide to offer them to everyone, to the General Public.

If we offer them to the General Public, we plan to price the manifold at $2,499 USD.

And include the custom tunes for FREE.

Our estimated TAM for the intake manifold is 200K units.

Note here that the intake manifold will also work on the N52B25.

For this case, we're developing a version of the 350 mm runners that mates to the N52B25 ports.

Note also that at some point, we'll transition the plenum to the industry standard,
Injection-Molded 30% Glass-Filled Nylon (PA66-GF30).

For clarity, Injection-Molded Glass-Filled Nylon is exactly how BMW constructs their factory intake manifolds.

Note also that Injection molding yields a perfectly smooth internal wall.

This reduces boundary-layer friction compared to the slightly porous, textured finish of SLS 3D printing, further optimizing air velocity into the modular aluminum runners.

BIG picture perspective, we're structuring our Auto Division to potentially generate ~$1B USD in revenue over the liftime of the service & products.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 5 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 16, 2026

Another Auto Division-related update.

The gist, we're also gonna need a solution for two cases when upgrading to our custom single-stage intake manifold & companion Stage 1 OR 2 tune would be ideal.

1.) Updating the CCV/PCV system components.

For this case, the intake manifold MUST be removed.

2.) The BMW owner is using the factory 3-stage, knows the DISA valves are either at OR past their EoL and doesn't want to buy a new set.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 2 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 16, 2026

Quick update related to our last update.

Our Auto Division Team has decided to port our three MSV70-based tunes to the MSV80.

Once done, that will enable us to add the "28i" models with the N52B30 to the mix.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 1:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 16, 2026

Quick update regarding our Auto Division.

1.) We've dropped California.

We now plan to focus on Nevada, Arizona, Texas, & Florida.

2.) We've dropped the 2006-2008 E85 Z4 3.0i roadster.

The engine bay is simply too cramp'd for what we (really) want to do.

3.) We plan to standardize on our 350 mm "Torker" intake manifold + our Stage 2 tune + MILVs.

● 248 hp at 6000

● 221 lb-ft at 3250 !

For clarity, it's #1 & #2 above that enables us to do so.

4.) Our complete list of donor/target cars is now:

● 2006 E90 325i RWD sedan

● 2006 E91 325i RWD sports wagon

● 2006-2007 E60 525i RWD sedan

5.) We have a new sales pitch:

"The N52B30 Sport Package BMW should have offered"

On the internet, it will very-likely be referred to as the "N52B30 SP".

Specifically, N52B30 SP = our custom intake manifold + our custom tunes + MILVs.

6.) We're looking at establishing two service centers, one in Las Vegas and one in Austin.

On a side note, we do want to provide a Heads Up that we are thinking about offering 2006-2011 N52B30 Alusil-reconditioned crankcases + the N52B30 SP as a "kit," for $10K USD.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 2:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 15, 2026

Today we found out that the Tesla Roadster, which was first teased in 2017, will be announced on Oct 1st.

That got us thinking, should we, on that day, tease our restomod
BMW 2006-2008 Z4 3.0i 6-speed Manual RWD Roadster ?

Drop 0.4 seconds off those times we posted earlier
for our prototype 2006 E90 325i 6-speed Manual RWD sedan.

On a side note, we highly-recommend everyone become an expert on the Late Bronze Age Collapse.

And NOT just on what might have caused it, but how things ended-up afterwards.

Consider it prep for how things could end-up if we lose control of Agentic AI.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 12:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 15, 2026

We need to correct something Dan Ives just stated on CNBC.

He (once again) called Jensen "the Godfather of AI".

While we are NOT fans of Elon Musk, it was he who encouraged Jensen to make that ALL-important $300K USD specialty computer years ago, & as such, we think Musk should more-correctly be referred to as "the Godfather of AI".

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 12 Noon (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 15, 2026

A reminder, our Auto Division's custom single-stage 350 mm "Torker" intake manifold was architected to under-cut the N54 (manifold swap), RPM-wise.

We believe we've achieved that, & then some.

It's power band is 2750-6000 !

Ideal for a Performant N52B30 MSV70-based Daily Driver !

In our prototype 2006 E90 325i 6-speed Manual RWD sedan:

● 0-60: 5.3 secs

● 1/4-mile: 13.7 secs at 101 mph

Please see the additional Tech Specs below.

Also, please note that the 350 mm we reference is just WRT the intake's Al runners.

There's an additional 75 mm inside the cylinder head.

Also, the kit will include the intake manifold & both our Stage 1 & 2 tunes.

And, we'll be recommending customers go with the Stage 1 tune for the first 2-3 months.

We believe some who were planning to go with Stage 2 will consider Stage 1 good enough.

Stage 1 nets (at the crank) +18 HP and +21 lb-ft.

Stage 2 nets (at the crank) an "additional" +15 HP and +15 lb-ft.

Please note that we consider 221 lb-ft at 3250 to be our Top Overall Spec.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Tues, Sept 15, 2026

The next update of Photosets, v26.6, should be out by week's end, & v26.7 by month's end, with our very-recent "innovative twist" for Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture support.

On a side note, a reminder, the AI Narrative is being driven by those with a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed.

We see multiple examples of that every single day on CNBC !

Also, just our two cents, but we think President Trump's Persian Gulf Sovereign Wealth Fund "buddies" have very-likely been "in his ears" the past week.

i.e., related to his (hard) stance about the risks that AI & ML present.

Also, we still ONLY see "Taxing Agentic AI Tokens" as the ONLY viable near-term solution.

If we were to write New Law to make that happen we would apply the Revenue to paying-down the U.S. National Debt.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 6:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Sept 13, 2026

Two more things to announce today:

1.) We've come up with an innovative twist for Photosets' Next-Gen Multi View Capture support.

For clarity, it's something we figured-out while analyzing Apple's new iPhone Duo.

2.) A high-level snapshot of where we currently stand with our Auto Division.

First, our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall Reconditioning Robot, Timmy, is our Crown Jewel, but it is NOT yet ready for Primetime.

Second, our stake in the ground is our custom single-stage 350 mm "Torker" intake manifold & companion msv70 Stage 1 & 2 tunes.

● Stage 1: 233 hp at 5750 and 206 lb-ft at 2750

● Stage 2: 248 hp at 6000 and 221 lb-ft at 3250

Both assume the stock Exhaust.

Both include a 3% to 5% safety margin.

Stage 2 requires MILVs.

The intake manifold was architected to under-cut the N54 (manifold swap), RPM-wise.

We believe we've achieved that, & then some.

Third, our Boutique Restomod effort is focused on the following 6-speed Manual RWD BMWs:

● 2006 E90 325i sedan

● 2006-2007 E60 525i sedan

● 2006-2008 Z4 3.0i roadster

● 2007-2011 E90 328i (msv80) sedan

Fourth, what we had been referring to as our Military option is now our Off Road option.

● 2006 E91 325xi 6-speed Manual AWD "sports wagon".

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Sun, Sept 13, 2026

Heads up, we're on track to release the next update of Photosets, v26.6, two days from now, on Tues, Sept 15th.

With it, we'll be promoting the app's "8-bit 420 & 10-bit 422 (4K120)" support.

Over the past few months we've have NO real success promoting Photosets' support for ML & Physical AI use cases, so we're pivoting, & will be using that support strictly for our In House Veritical Market activities.

Specifically, capturing, collecting & properly-Annotating ML Training & Verification Data for Physical AI use cases.

We assumed that at least some of Apple's App Store consumers "would get it" (i.e., the value & the benefit), but that NEVER happened.

To those potential Investors who have encouraged us to make this move, we've heard you, & we've acted.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 7:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Sat, Sept 12, 2026

Who AND/OR What is most-responsible for the near-future AI Agent threat that we'll ALL soon be facing ?

To us, it's those who enabled the AI Hype Train.

Instead of what could have been a nice, controlled (& paced) Roll-Out, it's become a Free for ALL.

We see two main culprits.

1.) Too many with a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed driving the Narrative.

That has driven up valuations 3x greater than they should be.

2.) Those driving the late-stage AI Data Center Build-Out investments.

E.g., the Persian Gulf Sovereign Wealth Funds.

That has driven up valuations "an additional" 2x greater than they should be.

NONE of this is Rocket Science.

And much of what's In the News now should have been In the News 6+ months ago.

It just has alot more momentum (In the News) now than before.

For clarity, we're NOT against AI, we're just against Agentic AI in its current form.

Agentic AI requires "privileged access" to do its thing.

There-in lies the risk.

It needs to be throttled, & the best way we know how to do so is to Tax Agentic AI Tokens.

We think Dario, Altman, & Musk should at least "carefully" consider it.

Before it's forced upon them by New Law.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 3:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Sat, Sept 12, 2026

We don't believe Dario's proposal will actually work !

Too little, too late & it will take too much time to implement.

As we see it, there's ONLY ONE possible solution that has ANY real chance of success,
& that's (immediately) "taxing Agentic AI tokens".

Someone (powerful) will need to force the issue, because Dario, Altman, Musk, & others,
probably won't be in favor of it.

And that's because the AI Hype Train will take a (BIG ?) hit.

But here, President Trump can look like the savior.

For clarity, ONLY he has the ability to make taxing Agentic AI tokens happen Fast.

And he could simply call it his "Agentic AI Tariff".

Also for clarity, there is risk with President Trump getting involved.

Too many with a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed will be in his ears.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Sat, Sept 12, 2026

We've decided to prioritize our Auto Division's Stage 1 (1/4 Race) 350 mm solution.

It produces +18 HP & +21 lb-ft of torque over stock.

And that's with just an intake manifold & companion tune upgrade.

Please see the first table below for reference.

And notice where peak HP occurs relative to stock.

Also, importantly, it's well-aligned with our theme, that some BIG companies are perfectly OK with leaving Perf on the table.

Some do it for Product Planning & Marketing purposes, some do it for other reasons.

If you know Our Story, you know precisely how this theme fits WRT our Photosets.

Also, we believe what we're announcing today will enable us to devote more time to Photosets, as well as play a BIG role in helping fix America via our Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition.

From our perspective, President Trump has gone Off the Reservation way too many times.

And he strokes himself way too f%#king much !

Who the f%#k does that ?

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9 AM (La Jolla-time) Fri, Sept 11, 2026

Two things to announce:

1.) We now believe the "accelerating" U.S. National Debt & Agentic AI are running "neck & neck" WRT being the single-greatest "security threat" to America.

And what we especially don't like is that President Trump just shrugs them both off.

Perhaps he's NOT qualified to be Commander-in-Chief.

What say you President Trump ?

Consider this, it's NOT too late to pivot.

You focus on trying to fix the U.S. National Debt & Agentic AI problems AND you could go down as one of America's greatest Presidents.

If you don't, (we suspect) History won't be kind to you.

2.) Whether we receive a first Military Order for it OR NOT, we've decided to add the 2006 E91 325xi 6-speed Manual AWD "sports wagon" to our mix.

Please see the first table below.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 8:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 10, 2026

We've been Asked & have Agreed, to look into whether it's possible for our Auto Division to produce an AWD Stage 2 (perf) version for Military applications.

For clarity, the starting point would be a 2006 E91 325xi AWD "Sports Wagon".

As a reminder, in the United States and Canada, the 2006 BMW 325xi Sports Wagon was natively offered with a standard 6-speed manual transmission.

Also for clarity, the application is high-speed logistical transport.

And BTW, our RWD Stage 2 (perf) version is good for 400+ miles at 85 mph.

See the first table below for reference.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 12 Noon (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 10, 2026

We strongly believe those building-out the AI infrastructure should be forced, by New Law, to expedite the manufacture of the Large Transformers used by the public power grid.

Now presents a Golden Opportunity to do so.

And to be prepared for the next Carrington-like Event.

If such an Event occurred today, Civilization would be wiped-out, just like the Late Bronze Age Collapse.

And for clarity, we've been posting about this for many weeks, perhaps even months, now.

We tried to make Sept 1st "Carrington Event Awareness Day," but that effort fell flat.

That's what happens when Bean Counters & Finance-types are running BIG companies.

i.e., NOBODY gets it.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 11:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 10, 2026

We just listened to Thoma Bravo of Orlando Bravo give his two-cents regarding AI on CNBC.

He said alot of things that we agree with, until the end.

He completely discounted the threat that Agentic AI presents to humanity.

And, he went out of his way to do so.

That's what we ALL get when a guy with a vested financial interest in seeing AI succeed gives his two-cents.

And for the Record, we consider him to be a Total Fool when it comes to the risks that Agentic AI presents.

On a side note, the ONE person who we believe should get credit for calling the Salesforce, Service Now, etc. rebound is Dan Ives.

If you know Our Story, you know we are NOT BIG fans of most things that Ives states.

But when he made that call months ago we backed his call.

And pointed it out.

We believe he, more than anybone else, should get the credit for making the call (early).

We leave it to the Reader to figure-out precisely when Ives first made that call on CNBC.

We could, & might, dig through our News Archives to find it.

But NO promises.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 10, 2026

What happens when it becomes Common Knowledge that many companies OVER-ordered their AI chip needs by 2x & 3x ?

i.e., because they were worried about shortages.

Food for thought.

BTW, why CNBC (for Dummies) doesn't cover (even the possibility of) this extremely important topic is extremely puzzling.

For clarity, we've ONLY heard ONE Pro Stock Analyst mention it on CNBC, & that was Dan Niles & it was weeks ago now.

For the Record, we believe CNBC is doing a "significant" DIS-service to their Audience.

The problems that are being created right now could come back to bite Humanity !

On a side note, (we believe) the best & quickest way for America to get out of the Political Mess that we're ALL in, is for the next Speaker to NOT be a member of the House, but also to be a "card carrying member" of the Center-Right Independent Thinkers Coalition.

We believe the accelerating U.S. National Debt is the single-greatest security threat to America.

With Agentic AI on its heels.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 9:30 AM (La Jolla-time) Thurs, Sept 10, 2026

FYI, as promised ...

We've merged the two tables together.

For clarity, we plan to use this ONE table to entice both potential Investors & potential Customers.

As a reminder, here at Cosmosent Labs, Inc., the company is dividied into two P&L divisions, a Photosets Division & an Auto Division.

WRT our Auto Division, we're focused on trying to capitalize on the N52B30 opportunity.

Which we see as an UN-tap'd Billion Dollar Plus opportunity.

For clarity here, our Crown Jewel is our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall Reconditioning Robot, Timmy.

Which we named after Tim Cook.

How our custom single-stage intake manifold + custom tunes stack up

● The 330 mm & 350 mm HP and torque numbers are in Bronze.
● The 340 mm HP and torque numbers are in Blue.

Key Notes:

1.) ALL three of our custom tunes include a 3%-5% safety margin.

2.) To achieve the fastest 0-60 and 1/4 mile times:

● For our Stage 1 & 2 tunes: we recommend shifting at 6200-6300 RPM.

The stock Exhaust chokes past that point !
● For our Stage 3 tune: we recommend shifting at 7100 RPM.

(1) Custom design:

330/340/350 mm progressively-tapered Aluminum runners +
2.7L SLS 3D-printed Carbon Fiber Reinforced Nylon 12 plenum.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 10 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 9, 2026

Two more things to announce:

1.) We know precisely how to Throttle the AI Hype Train.

ALL CNBC (for Dummies) needs to do is ask their so-called AI & ML expert guests:

"please describe to our Audience the most-challenging thing you've Accomplished with AI".

We predict 95% of them will choke on that.

Hopefully the other 5% can detail using AI as a Fast Research Assistant.

2.) We, OR more specifically our Auto Division, will be offering three runner length options for our custom single-stage intake.

● 350 mm (Street)

For our 1/4 Race & 1/2 Race tunes
● 340 mm (Street + Track)

For our 1/4 Race, 1/2 Race, & 3/4 Race tunes
● 330 mm (Track)

For our 3/4 Race tune

We estimate 2/3 of our customers will opt for the 350 mm "Street" option, 1/6 will opt for the 340 mm "Street + Track" option, & 1/6 will opt for the 330 mm "Track" option.

How the 330 mm & 350 mm runners fit into the mix

Compare this table to the similar (340 mm Baseline) one below.
Notice where peak HP and peak Torque occurs, vs the 340 mm Baseline.

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 1:30 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 9, 2026

We're BIG fans of AI as a Research Assistant in a field where the User is already an expert, OR is trying hard to become one.

We're also BIG fans of Physical AI, & in particular Industrial AI.

It is here where China has its biggest advantage over the U.S.

We are NOT fans of Agentic AI.

It requires Privileged Access to do its thing.

We believe the single-best & fastest way to throttle the threat that Agentic AI presents to the planet is to Tax it.

i.e., on a per-Token basis.

-----

📌 BREAKING NEWS: 1 PM (La Jolla-time) Wed, Sept 9, 2026

We see two possibilities playing-out WRT Apple's new iPhone Duo:

1.) "It sucks ALL of the oxygen out of the (iPhone sales) room".

For this case, the iPhone Duo accounts for 20% of Apple's revenue, mostly because the 18P and 18PM aren't selling well.

2.) It generates Enthusiasm for Apple's entire iPhone product line, similar to how the high-end Porsche 911 variants generate Enthusiasm for the entire 911 product line.

For this case, the iPhone Duo accounts for 6-7% of Apple's revenue, with the 18P and 18PM selling well.

On a side note, it puzzles us why CNBC rarely covers the fact that many building-out AI Data Centers ordered 2x OR 3x more AI chips than what they needed, simply because they were worried about Availability.

Simply put, there are too many blind-faith AI cheerleaders on CNBC !

Including some today (e.g., Ives) who are Completely Discounting the real threat that Agentic AI presents.

To us, anyone who says the AI industry should self-regulate is an Absolute Fool.

The main problem with CNBC is they have too many guests on their shows who have a vested interest in seeing AI succeed.

To us, AI & ML has its place, but NO where close to where it's Hyped.

We believe it's been OVER-Hyped by a 3x-6x factor.

Read that to mean Valuations.

We think in terms of Domains & Applications/Use-Cases when doing our Analysis.

FYI, as requested ...

For clarity, every BMW N52B30 is a candidate for our custom single-stage intake manifold.

However, ONLY those with the MSV70 ECU are candidates for our custom Stage 1-3 tunes.

Also for clarity, we currently have NO plans of selling our custom single-stage intake manifold OR our custom Stage 1-3 tunes on the Open Market.

Our Auto Division will be using those as a key part of its Boutique Restomod efforts.

Also for clarity, our ML-based Alusil cylinder wall Reconditioning Robot, Timmy, is our Crown Jewel.

Also for clarity, we're right on the cusp of 5.3 sec 0-60 and 13.7 sec at 100+ mph 1/4-mile times.

We're there on some runs & just above on others.

And BTW, those numbers, for an E90 325i Manual RWD, speak for themselves !

See the top row in the table below.

Also for clarity, those who know what we've been up to are now referring to our prototypes as both an "E90 325i CS" & as an "E90 M3 Lite".

On a side note, we plan to use our prototypes to help promote our Photosets app.

As a reminder, it was the day after the Labor Day weekend in Sept of 2014 that we first kicked off work on Photosets.

Photosets could have & very-likely should have become the planet's first-ever De Facto Burst Photo Camera App upon the release of the 2016 iPhone 7+.

But that naturally didn't happen.
