Let me share my real take on today’s AI news. We all read the news every day, but often they just spit out facts without any clear interpretation or opinions. No filters here—this is how I see it.
Elon #Musk lost an important battle against OpenAI. An American judge just rejected his request to block internal changes at the company. This means that despite all his power, Musk couldn’t stop someone who’s moving faster than him. That’s how technology works: it rewards those who stay ahead and punishes those who stand still.
Speaking of speed, what’s happening with #startups is mind-blowing: a quarter of those backed by Y Combinator now write 95% of their code using AI. Translation: a handful of engineers can now rake in millions. The kind of work we once knew is dying before our eyes, and anyone who doesn’t notice will be left behind.
Meanwhile, Kevin Weil, head of product at #OpenAI, lays it out: by 2025, AI will definitively surpass human capabilities. Not just a hypothesis, but a set timeline from those who are changing the rules of the game. Will it be true? And if it is, the real question is: are we ready, or will we keep sleeping?
Another thought-provoking signal comes from #PatronusAI, which has just developed an AI to judge the quality of other AIs. It’s the first case of a machine acting as the overseer of other machines. Sure, it’s useful, but it’s also a sign that we’re already losing control.
Then there’s #PikaLabs, which has released 16 AI video effects—now anyone can create cinema-quality videos without a budget or skills. This will have enormous consequences: the value of human creativity risks disappearing because everything becomes reproducible with a click. Cyberhumanism says otherwise. Do we act, or do we keep sleeping until something happens?
And while we’re talking about AI, #Figure is also eyeing physical robots: from a few hundred now, soon there will be a hundred thousand per year. That means advanced machines in our homes, offices—everywhere. This isn’t a distant future; it’s happening right now.
In this entire scenario, we can no longer just be spectators. Either we quickly learn to adapt, or we’ll be swept away by the wave of change.
