2026 Master list

Here are some things happening this year in AI, gaming, movies & tech.

AI:
- Evolution of AI agents into self learning and self improvement agents. First example was @karpathy 's autoresearch and to some extent @openclaw (thanks to incredible work by Peter) with the ability to update its own files (.md)
- Computers (as personal computers) have a new (alternative) definition now, thanks to Perplexity & Cursor - building on openclaw's original idea
- Voice AI improvements - lower latencies and making open source models ready for some major business usecases.
- Agentic applications make it to the mainstream (e.g, Google Gemini app being able to order your Uber or your groceries) for the first time.
- Sneak peek of Apple Intelligence powered by Gemini at wwdc 2026 (@apple)

Movies:
- Nolan's next movie
- Spielberg's next movie
- Next Toy Story

Games:
- GTA 6
- Forza Horizon Japan - First major racing game set in Japan on modern day hardware
- Fable - Highly immersive RPG with a lot of fun elements
- Wolverine - The newest marvel classic character finally has a game (before Blade)

Tech:
- Next Gen Console Updates
- iPhone's first ever foldable expected with no crease - first major innovation in foldables in a while since redesigning of hinges
- Redesigned MacBooks expected with OLED Touchscreens
- 2nd Gen of Ray-Ban Displays & further iterations on AR/XR glasses
- Steam Frame, Machine & Controller - their first slate of hardware releases since Steam Deck's popularity
- Phasing out of consumer PC builds as we know it due to rising prices and shortages in GPU, SSD & RAM. First year where push for cloud begins.

There is a lot more I have missed that's happening or expected to happen this year and will keep updating it.

Please note that these are my personal opinions as to what's expected.

@geoffkeighley @DolbyTheatre Half Life 3 today made your show the biggest show yet.

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@FlawlessC0wboy How much work had to go into UE5 for physics?

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@thesamparr Have noticed the exact same thing recently, and it's a massive shift.

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@videotech This is huge. AltV and Rage both gone.

@ivanburazin Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder hahaha, and that's just Ferrari in this case

@itsqail Quebec's people are some of the nicest people you'll meet.

@elonmusk Hi Elon,

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@btaylor Very interested to working in this space Bret.

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

As I get older, the more I realize reading is not just learning and new vocabulary but to help us think in a certain way.

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@rockstationonx The more we speculate the less we'll get. They don't want us to forget about it so the logical thing to do is to go completely silent about it if you want to get more news.

@playb0y4L Its a simple SEO change and sometimes Google does it on its own

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@LegacyKillaHD @BradleyMena Agree with this take. The media tour was purposely done to announce the release date as podcast has proven to be a successful medium in past years (e.g Trump, politicians, branding)

[Farhan H @FarhanSoftware]

@davidsenra Thursday will tell.
