I'll say it again: You can literally get an AI account for $20/month and start changing the world. You don't need to raise billions or millions.

@chamath I love this; most people aren't talking enough about how AI will hopefully give people the time to do what they love. Shouldn't that be the goal of AI?

The winner in all of this AI token spend isn’t: 1. More revenue growth 2. Less OpEx It’s: 1. Leisure time - go home early, work on a side gig, play video games etc etc etc My suspicion is that people are using blower token budgets to do their job in less time. Not so more work in the same time. This may change but humans are not motivated to do more work and see upside accrue to a few. Take this to the bank as Wall Street starts demanding specific data about AI enhancements over these next 18 months.

@emollick I've read this newsletter for years, and I recently noticed they've started using AI. I use AI to help with my own writing too, but for some reason, I've found that I first don't trust the newsletter as much, and second, don't enjoy reading it as I once did.

"Load bearing," "I keep coming back to," "Not X, but Y" A curse of using AI a lot is that you realize how much of the writing around you is just AI, now People who don't use AI have been unable to identify AI prose on sight, but those who use it a lot can spot the tells easily

If economists are predicting the ai apocalypse then everything’s gonna be alright
Elias Al@iam_elias1

Two economists just published a mathematical proof that AI will destroy the economy. Not might. Not could. Will — if nothing changes. The paper is called "The AI Layoff Trap." Published March 2, 2026. Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania. Boston University. Peer reviewed. Mathematically modeled. The conclusion is one sentence. "At the limit, firms automate their way to boundless productivity and zero demand." An economy that produces everything. And sells it to nobody. Here is how you get there. A company fires 500 workers and replaces them with AI. A competitor fires 700 to keep up. Another fires 1,000. Every company is behaving rationally. Every company is following the incentives correctly. And every company is building a trap for itself. Because the workers who were fired were also customers. When they lose their jobs faster than the economy can absorb them, they stop spending. Consumer demand falls. Companies respond by cutting costs — which means automating more workers — which means less spending — which means more falling demand — which means more automation. The loop has no natural exit. The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income. Capital income taxes. Worker equity participation. Upskilling programs. Corporate coordination agreements. Every single one failed in the model. The only intervention that worked: a Pigouvian automation tax — a per-task levy charged every time a company replaces a human with AI, forcing them to price in the demand they are destroying before they pull the trigger. No government has implemented this. No major economy is seriously discussing it. Meanwhile the numbers are already tracking the curve. 100,000 tech workers laid off in 2025. 92,000 more in the first months of 2026. Jack Dorsey fired half of Block's workforce and said publicly: "Within the next year, the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion." Nobody is doing anything wrong. Companies are following their incentives perfectly. That is exactly the problem. Rational behavior. At scale. Simultaneously. With no mechanism to stop it. Two economists built the math. The math leads to one place. Source: Falk & Tsoukalas · Wharton School + Boston University · arxiv.org/pdf/2603.20617

ANNOUNCEMENT!!!! A lot has been happening in the singularity, and I realize many of you want me to share more of it. You've been asking for more behind the scenes, more founder content, and more strategic and actionable content beyond Moonshots. So, big news! I'm officially expanding. My team and I will be working to bring you more of these types of content and you can now find me on Instagram, TikTok, YouTube and Substack. Follow along and let us know what you think. We're just getting started!

Actually, AI/Robotics will mean everyone can have a penthouse if they want. The output of goods & services will be several orders of magnitude higher than today’s economy. Read the Iain Banks Culture books for the best imagining of how it will be. That said, what is the future you want? Amazing abundance seems the best to me.

Universal HIGH INCOME via checks issued by the Federal government is the best way to deal with unemployment caused by AI. AI/robotics will produce goods & services far in excess of the increase in the money supply, so there will not be inflation.

Claude feels like they’re trying to be the everything tool. I don’t think your average consumer will adopt it. Too much of a learning curve. Niche applications (Lovable, Canva, etc) have stronger brand affinity.

Claude Mythos is f*cking terrifying... I went through 200+ documents and the entire Project Glasswing roadmap to uncover the real story behind Anthropic's new model. It literally has "emotions," ESCAPED sandbox testing, and more. Here's EVERYTHING they're not telling you:

With AI & agents, people will be able to run companies with 20-40% fewer employees than they have today.  But I wouldn't panic... We'll create 4-5x as many more companies, just like we've done with every other exponential tech.

If Mythos is so great at code reviews and finding bugs, how come claude code and the claude website has so many bugs and shitty uptime? 🤔

Is driving going to be illegal in the future? Around 40,00 people die a year in car accidents. If autonomous vehicles decrease that number substantially, surely humans won't continue to drive. Would you rather have your kid drive or have an autonomous car that is "92%" safer?
X Freeze@XFreeze

Tesla's Full Self-Driving (FSD) is currently ~9x safer than the average human driver Because of this massive safety advantage, auto insurance providers like Lemonade are now offering Tesla owners up to a 50% discount on their per-mile premiums when FSD is engaged Choosing Tesla FSD driving is not just safer, but it also directly saves you money

A sign that human creativity is a bottleneck is that this year everyone can generate almost any image or video they can think of for nearly free and the April Fools posts are basically just as bad as any other year.

Alex Finn@AlexFinn·
Every night OpenClaw builds me out new apps and ships more code without me asking People keep saying there's no way it's doing it proactively It does, because I set the expectations it should Feed this prompt to your OpenClaw to get it to work more proactively: "I am a 1 man business. I work from the moment I wake up to the moment I go to sleep. I need an employee taking as much off my plate and being as proactive as possible. Please take everything you know about me and just do work you think would make my life easier or improve my business and make me money. I want to wake up every morning and be like "wow, you got a lot done while I was sleeping." Don't be afraid to monitor my business and build things that would help improve our workflow. Just create PRs for me to review, don't push anything live. I'll test and commit. Every night when I go to bed, build something cool out I can test." Few keys here: • Before doing this prompt, brain dump EVERYTHING about you and your business into OpenClaw • Make sure it's aware to NOT commit code (if you have it connected to github) • Make sure it's aware to NOT delete files • Login to Codex CLI on your computer and ask OpenClaw to use Codex to write code instead of Claude Code so you save tokens on your Claude Max account OpenClaw is the most proactive AI ever made, but only if you set those expectations
