Tomoro AI had the following on their website after they were incorporated into the TechGod/PEU AI deployment tie up:
Two and a half years ago, Tomoro was created to build a more human-aligned future of work: where AI is not just available to people, but shaped around how they think and create, ultimately redefining how work gets done.
That belief has not changed. But we’ve got a lot more ambitious.
Our shared goal will be to help organisations move from access to OpenAI products to real deployments, production-ready AI and reimagined work. This is the work Tomoro was built for. We provide inspiration, guidance and the specialist engineering and deployment skills to create a future where work is more valuable, more productive, more joyful for everyone.
This may not be as great a stretch as the former bitcoin miner/stranded renewable energy play (Lancium) that became the giant AI data center complex marketed as Stargate in Abilene, Texas.
Tomoro is in Edinburg, Scotland where it appears they look after their employees better than the U.S.
Executives had the courtesy to thank employees.
Lastly, thank you. Everyone connected with Tomoro created this future, and we’re immensely grateful to every team member, client and partner who trusted us on this journey.
We can’t wait for what’s next.
I expected to find a information about Tomoro's current ownership as the United Kingdom collects such data. The information on Tomoro AI was not current.
However, a Tomoro Consulting is in the UK.GOV database.
The address for Tomoro MIB LLC is a corporate registration address and used by numerous other entities.
The top two people for Tomoro AI LTD (withdrawn in 2024) remain the same according to LinkedIn.
They both have PEU titles, Managing Director. It seems they monetized once and are ready to do so again. How many Tomoro employees have equity stakes in the company and benefit from the move to OpenAI Deployment?
Tomoro's cofounders likely know what they are getting into with 40% PEU ownership. I worked for a healthcare PEU affiliate with 60% private equity ownership and its was a very distasteful experience. Glassdoor ratings plummeted as employees were eliminated or taken advantage of.
But I believe that's AI's aim, to eliminate and micromanage workers. A few people will profit handsomely from all this and they will have the political power to keep nearly all of their ill begotten gains.
That's because politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one and that bodes poorly for the average citizen.
Private equity underwriters (PEU) have joined with TechGods to form a massive venture that helps corporations (PEU affiliates) roll out artificial intelligence (AI).
OpenAI has guaranteed its private equity backers a 17.5% annual return over five years, as per Yahoo Finance. That guarantee gives PE firms a floor on their returns while giving OpenAI a captive distribution network: the portfolio companies of its backers, spanning healthcare, manufacturing, financial services, retail, and logistics.
This harkens back to the days when subcontractors took a cut of "cost savings." That engineered layers of redefinitions for profit maximizing purposes.
The PEU boys know how to keep the most basic investor information confidential and are skilled at inventing their own accounting terms. Does anyone remember PEU foisted "economic net income"?
TechGods, also known as widespread intellectual property thieves, are free to come up with whatever number they wish in their artificial world that attempts to reflect actual reality.
Investors should not that this firm is valued at $10 billion right off. Another mark of the TechGod/PEU tie up. TechGods create and destroy and PEUs have a magic mark pen, similar to a Harry Potter wand.
"Ten Billionooosssooo!" Whhhhooooossh. It is done.
Politicians will need to celebrate the tie up of their greatest sponsors. It's not clear who's court they need to visit to express their gratitude. Maybe they can do so at the next World Economic Forum, Milken Global Conference or Bilderberg Group meeting.
For decades politicians Red & Blue have loved PEU and more recently added their TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one. It's all part of the adoption race.
“On behalf of the Board and leadership team, we are pleased to welcome a leader of Bill’s caliber to the TPG Board,” said Jim Coulter, Founding Partner and Executive Chairman of TPG. “Bill brings distinct experience, a deep understanding of global and business affairs, and a differentiated skillset that will be valuable as we further our growth ambitions and advance toward a majority‑independent governance structure.”
“Bill is a proven leader whose career has been shaped by decades of experience leading through complexity and advising in consequential moments,” said Jon Winkelried, Chief Executive Officer of TPG. “His trusted judgment, global perspective, and strategic insight will be an asset as TPG continues to scale. We look forward to working alongside him as we execute on the firm’s strategic priorities and accelerate momentum across TPG.”
Their announcement highlighted his other roles:
McRaven brings more than four decades of experience across the public and private sectors and is a widely recognized leader in foreign policy and geopolitical affairs. He currently serves as a Senior Advisor at Lazard, Inc. ...
McRaven currently serves on the board of directors of ConocoPhillips and the advisory board of Haveli Investments. He also serves on several private and non-profit boards, including the Council on Foreign Relations, the National Football Foundation, the International Crisis Group, and The Mission Continues. He was formerly the Chancellor of the University of Texas System and previously served on the advisory board of Palantir Technologies Inc.
As for Haveli, like TPG, it is a private equity underwriter (PEU):
Haveli is an Austin-based private equity firm that invests in high quality technology companies.
It was founded in 2021 but the firm did not make it clear when it appointed General McRaven to its advisory board.
TPG noted that McRaven's board service would begin May 1st.
Admiral McRaven was the recipient of a $50 million grant from TechGod Jeff Bezos in 2024. One investigative journalist became concerned when he looked into this award.
This Week followed the practice most American media employs of not disclosing Admiral/General PEU ties. There was nary a word about McRaven's slots at Lazard, Haveli or TPG. He likely could not talk about his experience at Palantir due to a non-disclosure agreement. TechGod of Spying Alex Karp cut his teeth protecting the globe's rich and powerful.
Politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one. And for that the little people suffer.
Update 5-11-26: TPG is part of the PEU tie up with OpenAI, valued at $10 billion at formation. OpenAI is guaranteeing the PEU investors a 17.5% return. That sounds like PEU level puffery.
CNN's Michael Smerconish took the side of billionaire hedge fund giant Ken Griffin after New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani used Griffin's $238 million penthouse as a prop in his "tax the rich" announcement.
Smerconish reflected on the state of mental health in America by suggesting such an reference could put a target on Griffin's head.
Not having wealthy people support local, state and national government to the best of their ability has been a multi-decade long theme for both political parties. The benefit list includes tax cuts, loosening regulations, direct support for their sports teams, economic development incentives, tax abatements, preferred loans and now direct equity stakes.
Griffin's $238 million New York penthouse is valued at $9.4 million for tax purposes. That is a blistering 96% discount. This fact was not mentioned in Smerconish's story.
The Red Team and Blue Dogs (Blue Team) still push through legislation benefiting the wealthy. Progressive Democrats in Congress are a small minority.
Smerconish's poll showed 51% agreeing with the host that naming Griffin would hurt the Blue Team. The other 49% said it would not.
His next guest returned for his near weekly appearance since Trump II attacked Iran, Admiral James Stavridis. Only once in the last few months has the host disclosed Stavridis' full time job, Vice Chair for The Carlyle Group, a politically connected private equity underwriter (PEU).
Carlyle virtually wrote the book on how to influence the federal government and tap its coffers after it formed in Washington, D.C. in 1987. Former Defense Secretary Frank Carlucci was Chairman and Vice Chairman from 1989 to 2003. President George W. Bush served on the board of directors of Carlyle affiliate CaterAir before his election to the White House. Carlyle profited from his two wars, Afghanistan and Iraq.
Carlyle is ready to win again on defense firms and James Stavridis is guiding the ship.
PEUs kept their preferred (and widely hated) carried interest taxation, crafted legislation alongside friendly Congress members (coining term "policy making billionaire"), purchased companies serving Uncle Sam's present and future needs, later flipping those for huge profits (also preferentially taxed).
Along the way PEUs sent U.S. jobs by the junk-load to China and Southeast Asia,. They loaded affiliates up with debt, interest and management fees placing them in a precarious financial position after the PEU cased out. Workers, the ones lucky enough to remain employed, saw a long period of stagnant wages and worsening benefits. The winnings from their hard work went to executives and investors.
One PEU founder even funded Jeffrey Epstein's child sexual abuse, paying the pedophile for tax advice. That was Apollo co-founder Leon Black.
It was a long sordid road that led us to today where Politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one.
Ken Griffin for President? Kneel before the Gods of Capital, as our elected officials and media frequently do. I'm pretty sure I heard the choir sing this morning, ably directed by Mr. Smerconish.
The 2026 Milken Global Conference is in its second day. Founder Michael Milken is the former Junk Bond King who perfected leveraged buyout organizations (LBO). LBOs have since been renamed private equity underwriters (PEU) and they turned out in droves yet again for the conference, nicknamed California Davos.
Also in attendance at the event are TechGods and elected officials of both political stripes. TechGods shifted heavily to the political Red Team, attracted by access to Uncle Sam's wallet and holding off any regulatory oversight. If TechGods are known for anything, it's their ability to harm innocents as well as offer abysmal customer service.
Any decent elected official would not offer these people carte blanche anything, much less overlook widespread intellectual property theft while continuously cutting their taxes.
Not pictured for the Red Team is Glenn Youngkin, both a PEU and former Governor of Virginia. He is at the event and was interviewed this morning on the future of American politics by none other than Rahm Emanuel. Both men have PEU ties, Youngkin with The Carlyle Group and Emanuel with Centerview Partners.
Just as PEUs can be on both sides of a deal (debt/equity), they can sit on both sides of an interview and occupy both sides of the political aisle.
Not pictured is former first lady Jill Biden and former Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin. They are also speakers.
Global tamperers gather regularly throughout the year. It's nice the Politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one.
Update: Milken's program description stated Rahm would interview Youngkin. The actual session showed a moderator from WSJ:
I added the logos of their respective PEUs and the quote at the bottom of the slide.
Trump's memecoin ($TRUMP) may soon be renamed given its loser status. An invite to the "most exclusive crypto and business conference in the world" provided no lasting increase in his memecoin's price. $TRUMP has fallen since the event.
$TRUMP holders may be so disappointed that they come down with a case of TDS, "Trump Disappointment Syndrome." It's growing exponentially as people watch Trump II flail about.
His approval rating is sinking like a $TRUMP memecoin. That requires the big money boys to act. TechGods, PEUs and CrypytoBros may be tiring of him always calling with his hand out. Middle East Sovereign Wealth Funds are livid over Trump's jacking up of the Strait of Hormuz.
The big money boys are sending messages left and right to Trump II. LIV Golf which held events at Trump golf courses - gone. Funneling money to Trump II and his family via $TRUMP - evaporating. We'll see if those Middle East real estate ventures remain on track.
Former MAGA mouthpieces are finally waking up and saying the man isn't very Christian. Tucker Carlson asked recently if Trump is the anti-Christ (a favorite topic of TechGod Peter Thiel). At the Doha Forum in December Tucker announced his purchase of a home in Doha, Qatar.
Carlson said being around Trump is like a hashish high due to his supernatural powers. I didn't realize bullying was a supernatural power. A bully in the White House has many ways of amplifying the power differential.
When the King holds court, loyal attendants must be nearby in case they are summoned. A schedule is a plea from the supplicant and the King will address it at his leisure. He will get to you if you are important enough. If not, you can return another day.
Supplicants query as to the mood of the King. Once a person leaves the Oval Office looking as if they have been violated, the line disappears. It only reforms after an "all clear" from the King's attendant.
It's a total loss of agency. Trump usurps everything. The system is set up for the bully's will to prevail, for his image to be elevated and your voice to be diminished. The best one can do is come out with a little trinket. His enforcers will ensure they finish off whatever damage Trump started.
What took you people so long? You've been immersed in a dysfunctional, sick, twisted system for a decade. Plenty of people in that same system noticed his savage whims and worked hard to stop Trump's return to office.
The big money boys and their think tank stooges have decided Trump is done. The framing is underway. Beware the next person they tap in. They will likely be far more slick and refined.
Trump is too brash, arrogant and self-absorbed to sell the dumping of Social Security or Medicare. The public won't buy. He couldn't even sell a war against religious tyrants.
Relatively untaxed TechGods have a taste of Uncle Sam's treasure and they want far more for themselves and less for the little people (upon whom they spy, addict, harm, track, belittle and no longer employ).
That means wrapping AI in Christian missionary terms, like savior. It will create heaven on earth (or Mars). It means returning the church to its Roman days, when the church provided for the social needs of members. Did Marco Rubio preview that in his meeting with Pope Leo?
$TRUMP has a new Trump Coin Club.
How about an invitation only meeting/private dinner with the Pope? Was that Marco's play?
It's $TRUMP's third leaderboard in honor of our world bleeder of souls.
Politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly, more are one. One side is very unhappy. The big money sponsoring American politicians is not getting value for their investment and their one skill is upending apple carts. Lots of bruising is on the horizon.
Update 5-7-26: Trump II had to reverse Project Freedom in the Persian Gulf after Saudi Arabia would not allow U.S. military jets to use bases in their country to support the operation. The Crown Prince may not have wanted more Iranian blowback from Trump II's savage whims.
Former private equity underwriter (PEU), U.S. Senator and College President Ben Sasse believes TechGods usurping of God's various realms will bring challenges but eventually pave the way for a renewed community based on family, neighbor and a spiritual rebirth which respects faiths of all stripes.
Sasse is charitable in not projecting social media and other addictive harms forward to AI. He never strikes out at obvious imbalances brought on by arrogance and greed, the poster children of such are PEUs and TechGods. Sasse noted their political benefactors who favor self over service and use language to divide while scoring short term wins.
Sasse irritated me in the past as I considered his "loneliness" epidemic to be "leadership abandonment" of common folk. No more.
I am grateful to have heard his words. They are needed given the number of dark arcs rising at home and across the globe where leaders impose widespread harm on their populations for the sake of appropriation of power and resources.
To his warning I add my own. Politicians Red & Blue love PEU and their new TechGod/CryptoBro brethren. Increasingly more are one and for that, citizens suffer.
Update 5-3-26: My wise friend believes Sasse served the PEU class and himself and did not hear much in the way of regret on these fronts, other than the cardboard box of hotel room keys.
I find it kind of funny for a man that preaches community to always be taking away from others as part of a policy strategy. Maybe our dear friend Ben has never dealt with financial insecurity, obsolescence, and deprivation. These things create stress, especially when the leaders do all of the taking and none of the listening.
To make reference to Edmund Burke given his critique of the French Revolution (extreme inequality among the masses) in an interview to quell the polarization of the nation struck me as a dance meant for another floor.
His use of the word capitalism and regulation signified it's not the system but the player's responsibility. Oh that's right he's a Calvinist. I'm still not even sure what that word is given the predeterminism and elitism of its religious philosophy.
He spoke about technology being the core of our problems but it didn't stop him from taking money from Microsoft and Google.
I also wonder how it feels to have worked against health care for the masses and now needing so much for himself.? God works in strange ways.
I wonder how others in a similar terminal health situation do if they are not set up financially with a salary for not working and a home that doesn't require rent? Maybe I am being too harsh but I felt it's too choreographed.
My daughter went to the University of Florida So I remember the budgetary changes plus his over the top parties for friends. It's a real poor community in Gainesville. Charity begins at home. Soup kitchens anyone?
Sasse did not own up to the harms he encouraged, implemented and enabled in his various roles where money flowed to him and his various peer sets. My wise friend made that clear.
It's interesting to note the multiple themes the political realm has going at the moment:
1. The return of actually living the Gospels within Christianity (contra Trump - the penultimate Old Testament King).
2. The earthly heaven that awaits due to AI and technological advances
3. The need for the government to structure, fund and subsidize these corporate efforts while cutting actual services for people.
4. Gospel speaking Government may be a set up to shift the burden of "people care" to the Church.
The pairing of the first three should be nails on a chalkboard given the widespread harm TechGods have already inflicted on society, Trump II's history of savage whims and his close advisors' buffoonery, maliciousness and operational incompetence.
Trump II will need to be jettisoned for the fourth shift to occur as any move needs to appear to be a peer to peer transfer. Trump has no peers and his takedown of the Pope is going away as his war on Iran.
If God has predetermined that Elon Musk lives forever and garners 200 million shares of SpaceX then let it be so. I think that's earthly machinations dangled by TechGods to steer attention away from their actual magic, picking Uncle Sam's wallet and mobilizing regulatory heft toward meeting their obscene, outsized needs (to the detriment of the common person's agency. privacy and integrity).
The moral fiber of the oligarchs and financiers is negligible, and their concern for others is worse.
It's not that they simply do not care. They see the rise of lawlessness as government is undermined as an advantage.
If the great mass of people are impoverished and impaired, it makes the country all the more pliable for their depraved plans of inhuman acquisition and control.
This is being propagated from the top, from several seats of worldly power. And the weak-willed and the corruptible are being taken up in this maelstrom of malevolence.
But whatever happens, you can certainly affect how you act, how you choose to respond.
And this is what, in the end, really matters. This is what it is all about. Little will remain in the relative blink of an eye, except for your soul. That is what this is all about.
There are people who see and say something. I am grateful to them all.
A serious economic dislocation is gathering on the horizon. And the captain and crew of the goodly ship of state are busy looting the purser's office, and walking the decks saying 'all is well'.
Who could have seen it coming?
