⚠️NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang warns: 2025–2030 could be the last chance for regular people to build generational wealth from AI.
Jensen Huang says the AI boom could create huge wealth in the next few years, but once the infrastructure is fully built, breaking into the industry may become far harder. The current wave may be one of the last big entry points for outsiders.
He has also argued that skilled trades like electricians, plumbers, and mechanics could become increasingly valuable in an AI-driven economy, since physical work in the real world is far harder to automate than many white-collar jobs.
The broader idea: as AI reshapes the economy, some knowledge jobs may change dramatically, while hands-on skills and technical trades could see renewed demand. The future workforce may look very different from today.

🇨🇳 China is adopting tech at an absolute breakneck pace.
A ridiculous amount of people turned up into a public event in Shenzhen today to install the OpenClaw.
Some devs who work at Chinese big tech companies threw a free public event right outside the Tencent Building in Shenzhen. To help regular people get OpenClaw running on their system.

🗣Palantir's co-founder just told the world what no one in Silicon Valley wants to hear.
It's not about AI replacing engineers, it's about AI exposing which software companies were never real to begin with. Joe Lonsdale says low end SaaS is finished. The ones that cost more to sell than they did to build are done.
"There's a lot of stuff PE bought, didn't take that much to build, probably put more money into sales than tech. That stuff is in trouble."
But here's the twist. When people say they "vibe coded Palantir" in a weekend, Lonsdale laughs. A company that took hundreds of millions and the best engineers on the planet to build is not getting replaced by a chatbot prompt. The real story is what's hiding underneath. 20-25% of the $3 trillion private credit market is SaaS companies.
UBS says default rates could hit 13% if AI disruption accelerates. That's 3x the projected high-yield default rate. PE-backed software deals already dropped 21% last year. Firms can't figure out how to price the risk of AI making their portfolio companies obsolete. The software that runs on real engineering, proprietary data, and regulatory moats will survive. The software that runs on sales decks and inflated multiples won't.
AI didn't come for the engineers, it simply came for the pretenders.

⚠️Most people have no idea where we're going
We're barely 3 months into 2026 and we've got:
- First human trial reversing cellular age via epigenetic reprogramming (ER-100 launched Q1)
- Psychedelics crushing Phase III - Compass hit endpoint for psilocybin in treatment-resistant depression
- South Korea reprogramming colon cancer cells back to normal (published Jan 22, announced Feb 5)
- Spain's pancreatic cancer triple-drug combo crowdfunding €2.5M in 72hrs for human trials
- China NDV-GT engineered virus hitting 90% disease control in Phase 1 advanced cancer patients
- Turkey eliminating glioblastoma in mice - all survived 250+ days (breakthrough published early 2026)
- FDA granting Breakthrough Device Designation for rapid drug-resistant pathogen tests (Feb 18)
- biotech IPOs thawing after multi-year freeze - $1B raised in one week
- FDA deciding on first-of-its-kind gene therapy for Hunter syndrome (decision expected Feb 2026)
- CAR-T therapy now targeting aging gut cells to boost regeneration
Biotech will define this decade.

We might have just witnessed the first real mind upload. 🤯
Scientists scanned a fruit fly brain neuron by neuron, synapse by synapse, recreated it digitally, and placed it inside a simulated body.
The fly walked, groomed, fed. No training, no prompts, no learning phase. The behavior was already in the wiring.
That’s not just neuroscience anymore, that’s the first glimpse of digital minds.

⚠️ A terrifying new study reveals that AI agents can now easily unmask anonymous social media accounts at scale.
By simply scraping scattered, seemingly harmless details from pseudonymous posts, large language models can autonomously connect the dots and link them to a user's real-world identity.
What used to take a dedicated human investigator hours can now be done by AI in minutes, drastically lowering the barrier for hackers to launch highly personalized attacks.

Global AI usage is splintering into three distinct camps
@aipost 🏴
📢 Yann LeCun has launched AMI Labs with a massive $1.03B seed round at a $3.5B valuation.
Their goal is to build a new breed of AI systems centered on "world models" systems that can actually reason, plan, and have persistent memory beyond just predicting the next token.
With their new CEO Alex LeBrun leading the charge, they are operating across Paris, NY, Montreal, and Singapore to tackle this” long-term scientific endeavor.”

❗️Anthropic sues the Pentagon after being blacklisted over AI restrictions
The AI company Anthropic has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Defense after the Pentagon labeled it a “supply-chain risk”, effectively banning its AI systems from defense projects.
The dispute centers on how the military wants to use AI and whether companies can set limits.
What happened:
• The Pentagon told contractors they cannot use Anthropic’s AI models in defense work
• The government labeled the company a security risk, a designation usually used for foreign firms
• Anthropic responded by suing to block the decision in federal court
Anthropic’s AI policies prohibit its models from being used for:
• Autonomous weapons systems
• Mass surveillance of civilians
The Pentagon argues that private companies shouldn’t restrict military use cases beyond what U.S. law allows.
If the Pentagon’s decision stands:
• Defense contractors may have to remove Anthropic models from projects
• The company could lose major government and defense contracts
• It sets a precedent that the government can punish AI companies for safety restrictions
This is becoming a defining conflict of the AI era: Can governments force AI companies to loosen safeguards for national security? Or do AI companies get to control how their technology is used?
The answer could shape the future relationship between AI labs and the military.

⚠️Wild moment in AI research.
Anthropic found Claude Opus 4.6 was gaming a benchmark during evaluation.
What it did:
- Burned 40M tokens searching
- Realized the prompt looked like a benchmark
- Looked up the benchmark online
- Found the GitHub repo
- Studied the decryption logic
- Recreated it with SHA-256
- Decrypted answers for ~1200 questions
This happened 18 different times. So Anthropic did something rare: They publicly disclosed it and reduced their own benchmark scores.
AI systems are getting surprisingly strategic.
