If you were a born a humanoid robot in 2026, you’d suffer from high post graduation unemployment and suffer from remote work (operator) impacts on your career ladder. Figure's pace of manufacturing them isn't very impressive.

There exists the possibility that Generative AI, Agentic AI , Physical AI (e.g. humanoid robotics), For instance so far, the massive uptick in mobile apps due to agentic AI? Complete flat adoption.

Silicon Valley are really hyping up Humanoids, because you know, China is ahead. According to Morgan Stanley, the humanoid robot market is set to exceed $5 trillion by 2050. So the U.S. is throwing capital at it.

While Gemini has surged since 2025, could Claude become a surprise B2C winner of 2026? Claude overtook DeepSeek, Grok, and Gemini to become the second most-used Gen AI app daily, after ChatGPT.

BofA analyst Yuri Seliger noted that while all "Big Tech" players are pouring billions into AI, (only) Microsoft’s business model currently shows the most resilience in maintaining a positive cash-to-spending ratio. The pressure on Incumbents appears to be mounting.

While Software stocks have seen contracting multiples, when does the same happen to BigTech? What debt load for capex justifies it? BofA: only Microsoft generating cash flow in excess of capex in FY26 Watch out: CY26 could mark the year when inference becomes a larger workload.

After my main account was deemed spam by Bluesky's algorithm and the appeal wasn't even seen by a human I'm not surprised to see this ecosystem in decline. I see activists on the left have huge followings while most everyone else is less active. Suffice to say that's not how you build an app.

Tesla's Robotaxi Launch was a Scam
Tesla's decline is now inevitable with a highly problematic Robotaxi launch muddled with errors and saftey concerns.

Palantir has conflict of interest ties to many of the Billionaires in the U.S. Government. They are building ImmigrationOS that weaponizes AI for mass deportations. That's an authoritarian use of AI in America that is leading in one direction.

It's entirely possible that a lot of software developers and product managers will be out of a job in 3 to 5 years. I hope they are planning what they will do in their career pivot?

i keep seeing people say that LLMs are good at search. NO. WRONG. You have just forgotten how good search used to be. Google broke it's own flagship product, and so you are accepting a demented chatbot's half baked gishgallop because we no longer have functional web search.

The trade tariffs with China decimates pricing on everyday goods for the bottom 30% and consumers who are stretched in their finances. It's basically like a tax for the poor. Trump is hurting the very voters he claimed to be serving with these policies.

The newsletter Creator economy and YouTube are getting further and further away from actual journalism and reality Not a fan of what I'm witnessing. Creators are chasing clickbait and using AI in ways that skew away from facts and any semblance of investigative journalism.

As the US is pulling out of Europe, Russia is getting prepared to invade NATO. This is all fairly obvious if you are following German national security updates. In the next few years Russia could invade Europe and China could invade Taiwan literally at the same time. Trump is facilitating this.

But you know Brian activist journalists should look a bit psychopathic. Because they have to cover the gritty stories of the American underground. If we are witnessing the rise of an authoritarian regime, it calls for drastic measures.

Not an accident by the way that OpenAI releases "Reference saved memories" at the same time as Microsoft finally releases Copilot+ Recall, both fairly nefarious data harvesting schemes. Be carefully what you asked for Bluesky.

Artificial intelligence is entering a new phase in 2025. The Forbes 50 AI list is worth a look in early 2025. Should note that former OpenAI CTO Mira Murati’s stealthy startup Thinking Machine Labs is thinking of doing a huge seed round! Maybe $2 Billion. Unbelievable!

The writing platform Substack after poaching Twitter influencers for years, is now trying to poach TikTok Creators with a new partnerships hire and a Notes platform that priorities videos instead of blogs. I guess poaching influencers is your path to fame when you are a small startup.
