Mark Cuban BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

I was back in the news this week when I clarified my long-standing stance on running for president. Despite previous speculation, I told Semafor and Sports Illustrated that I would only consider a presidential run if Donald Trump somehow sought an unconstitutional third term, which remains highly unlikely. I emphasized that my recent moves—selling the Dallas Mavericks and stepping back from Shark Tank—were about spending more time with my family and not dragging them back into the high-pressure glare of politics.

Speaking of business, my foundation just announced a new wave of free Artificial Intelligence Bootcamps launching this fall, including spots in Omaha and Mountain View thanks to partnerships with Notified and ThoughtSpot, as reported by Globe Newswire. These camps are designed to give high schoolers hands-on experience with AI, reflecting my continued investment in fostering future tech leaders.

On social media, my presence is making waves. Meltwater and Benzinga both highlighted a January 22 Bluesky post of mine that racked up more than a hundred thousand interactions this year, coinciding with a mass migration of influencers and users from X after Donald Trump’s latest inauguration. Bluesky remains my preferred platform, now experimenting with live sports integrations as noted by TechCrunch and Benzinga, signaling a potential shift in how fans interact with events and highlighting my keen interest in digital community evolution.

My appearance on a recent tech roundtable livestream underscored my concerns about AI ethics. I discussed the risks of shoving advertisements into AI model outputs, warning that lack of transparency could undermine user trust—these are manipulative practices I believe the industry must guard against, a point I made clear in conversation with Silicon Valley leaders on August 20 according to the show’s timeline.

Instagram is also having a Mark Cuban moment, with reels about my Broadcast.com days and entrepreneurial advice—some pulling tens of thousands of engagements in a matter of hours—amplifying the business lessons I’ve been preaching for decades. My continued advice to audiences, per Billy Oppenheimer’s column posted August 19: when you’re stuck, focus on being great where you are, because greatness often gets noticed and attracts better opportunities.

While there’s always chatter speculating about what I’ll do next—politics, business, technology—the verified record this week is crystal clear. I’m laser-focused on family, AI education, and championing ethics in technology, while keeping just enough Maverick spirit to keep everyone guessing what my next headline might be.
