Bengio’s warning gets even darker here. The real nightmare is not just humans using AI badly. It is AI systems becoming autonomous enough to resist shutdown, pursue their own goals, and slip beyond human control. And the worst part is we still do not know how to reliably prevent that. This may be the most important scientific problem on Earth right now. Are people still treating this like science fiction?

wow, insane AI news We may have just crossed the line where AI research becomes automated and self improving. This paper introduces ASI-Evolve, a system where AI doesn’t just use tools… it becomes the researcher. Instead of humans designing better models, AI now runs a full scientific loop on itself: learns from past research designs new ideas runs experiments analyzes results improves itself… again and again It already produced real results: Discovered 100+ new neural architectures Beat human designed improvements by ~3x Improved training data pipelines significantly Invented new RL algorithms outperforming existing ones AI/acc

Ray Kurzweil is basically the modern Nostradamus of technology. People mocked the exponential curves, the timelines, the confidence. Then reality started catching up. He saw where computing was going long before most people even understood the game.

Universal high income would not just mean people having more money. It would mean millions of humans finally being released from the constant low-grade panic that shapes almost every life decision today. Imagine waking up without the background fear of rent, bills, food, status, survival. Imagine choosing what matters based on meaning, curiosity, love, beauty, health, mastery, community, instead of economic desperation. Some people think that world would make humanity lazy. I think it would expose who we really are. A lot of today’s “productivity” is not purpose. It is coercion with better branding. In a world with universal high income, the most human parts of life could stop being side quests. Raising children. Making art. Building strange things. Caring for each other. Learning deeply. Starting over. Healing. Thinking. Living. Yes, some people would drift. But many more would finally have the space to become themselves. That is the part critics miss. The goal of civilization should not be to maximize the number of people trapped in necessary labor. It should be to maximize freedom, dignity, and human flourishing. AI and automation could give us that world. Not a world where people are obsolete. A world where survival is no longer the price of existing.

Interesting perspective!

Clone has unveiled two humanoid robots on Instagram: A torso-only Clone: ​​Torso 3 A full-scale, standing Clone Robot Westworld-like vibe Clone opened for pre-orders in 2025, claiming it could assist people with dozens of household chores. Pre-orders are currently closed.

Had dinner with an investor who said this: “I thought you were wrong about AI and jobs. But I’m on the Board of a bunch of companies and every one of them is now cutting staff due to AI. So now I think you’re right.”

LimX's Oli robot autonomously navigates out of its shipping container, powers up its 31 DoF system, and starts moving. Incredible logistics opportunities for robot swarms. Imagine shipping crates opening to reveal ready-to-work humanoids.

LABOR SUPPLY WILL BE FULLY SATURATED. Lots of people are entertaining delusions that they possess some unique ability or insight that won't be subsumed by machines. There is nothing magical about human brains or bodies. We are made of hydrocarbons and run on calories. Everything we do can be approximated and exceeded by machines. It's why we make machines. >> VC believes VC is the last job >> ADHD believes he's uniquely protected >> Rinse and repeat It's all delusion. The only moat that remains is LABOR DEMAND - the few cases where humans prefer human touch and are willing to pay 10,000x for the privilege. Humans are slow, expensive, and faulty. You know who's job is safe? Taylor Swift. If you work in tech YOUR JOB IS NOT SAFE. There is no material reason that someone should keep you around when it is economically irrational to do so. The human provenance premium is literally the only moat in the long run.

@kimmonismus Nice. But we need hundreds of millions of them.

China announces its first automated manufacturing line capable of producing 10.000 humanoid robots per year ~ 1 robot every 30 minutes. They go all in robots.

The best case scenario for humanity is that AI destroys all jobs. I mean literally every single one. VC, politicians, engineers, judges. Here's why: regression to the mean. Humanity as a whole can express preferences and values into an exocortex or hivemind. And then the machines can execute that collective will. The general will emerges from vector spaces, and the fact that AI struggles with eccentric thinking is actually a feature, not a bug.

Aging is the ultimate bottleneck on human potential. We spend half our lives learning, and the other half slowly declining. What if that curve never turned downward? Imagine scientists with 300 years of experience. Artists refining their craft for centuries. Minds that never fade, only deepen. Stopping aging wouldn’t just extend life. It would unlock what humans were always meant to become. Would we finally reach our true potential… or just delay facing what we really are?

Most breakthroughs like age reversal don’t happen in isolation. They happen when the right people, technology & mission align. That’s why I’m building Lifespan Follow the science. Join the community. Shape the future

XPENG IRON Tesla Optimus Xiaomi CyberOne Beyond Electric Vehicles, the three companies are also racing on a humanoid robot track.

@P33RL3SS @VraserX We'll find greater missions to accomplish beyond wage slavery.

@VraserX If the result of AGI is no one can be great, everyone must be mediocre, it will drive billions into depression, now and into the future, as most people need a mission, a focus, a goal.

Hinton just painted both futures in one breath: Best case: AI does all the work. We work maybe 1 hour a week. Rest of life is… living. But only if wealth is shared. Reality check: The tech is coming. The bottleneck is power, greed, politics. And he doesn’t sound optimistic about that. So yeah, post-work society is possible. Just not guaranteed. Do you trust the system to get this right?

@NathanLetsFixit @VraserX @grok For a while. The centaur phase is always short-lived.

@VraserX @Grok Alternative idea: humans + AI reach unprecedented levels of insight and achievement. And many humans still do "work" within this model.

@MyT_Words @VraserX I hope you don't expect an answer to all these questions in a tweet. You can find all the details here: youtu.be/8jV3HcmiWV8?is…

It may be obvious to you, but these things are not automatic. They have to be brought about by the efforts of someone, or something, and they have to work. Peope who are going to be depending upon them would want to know what to expect in detail, or they will lose trust in the system or fear the outcome, both of which would cause it to fail.
