The old world is dead. Stop preparing for it.

∙College debt for a 9-to-5 → obsolete
∙“Climb the ladder” → ladder’s gone
∙“Secure a pension” → pension was the bait
∙“Pick a career” → pick a problem to solve instead
∙“Wait your turn” → there are no turns anymore

The map you were given was for a country that no longer exists.

Thoughts in my journal after an amazing week of working in AI with industry leaders. ❤️

They say AI will destroy work. I say, good. Because what we call work today has destroyed us - our creativity, our families, our purpose. Time to let machines do machine work. Humans can be human again.

Comparing Opus 4 to 4.1, side by side.

From sharper design mocks to smoother animations, 4.1 produces more polished outputs—with more depth and complexity.

Examples from us and the community:

someday soon something smarter than the smartest person you know will be running on a device in your pocket, helping you with whatever you want.

this is a very remarkable thing.

Me waiting for GPT-5 all week: 👀👀👀 … 🦗

Meanwhile, TODAY, we finally published the full tutorial on how my AI clone, Dr. McCoy, was made. The world’s first AI avatar to hit 100k on YouTube.

"AI will keep getting better and the day will come when AI will do all of our, all the things that we can do. Not just some of them but all of them."

And Ilya Sutskever is sure about this.

Its coming.

[David Scott Patterson @davidpattersonx]

Humanoid robots with Artificial Universal Intelligence (AUI) will be capable of cooking every meal with almost no labor cost.

AUI will have the maximum level of intelligence and ability in every field. It will be able to cook every meal like a five-star chef.

Dining out and ordering takeout will be so inexpensive that many people will not bother having a kitchen in their homes.

[Julia McCoy @JuliaEMcCoy]

Here's what happens when you underestimate exponential change:

2020: "AI is just a fancy autocomplete"
2023: "ChatGPT is impressive but limited"
2024: "AI agents are getting interesting"
2025: "Wait, how did AI get THIS good?"
2030: "I can't remember how we did anything before AI"

This pattern repeats across every breakthrough technology.

We consistently:
- Overestimate short-term impact
- Massively underestimate long-term transformation
- Get caught unprepared when the hockey stick curve hits

Smart money isn't betting against acceleration.

Smart money is positioning for the world where energy is free, work is automated, and human creativity is the only scarce resource.

Are you preparing for 2030, or still optimizing for 2020?

Everything's coming together.

@JuliaEMcCoy and I are hard charging on our first Post-Labor Economics book, a fictionalized story of the transition from now to a Post-Labor future.

But even better, I'm gearing up for the non-fiction version, which looks at the technology, the data, the history, and the policy. And OMG I've compiled SO MUCH RESEARCH.

This is rock solid.

TRUE STORY: A @FirstMoversAI client came to us with 14 AI tools costing $9K monthly.

Their team was still:
• Manually moving data between systems
• Rewriting AI outputs
• Missing deadlines

After orchestration? 4 tools. $7,200 saved monthly. 250% more output.

…..

I’m thinking that’s what the clone will talk about next week. 💥

🤖 The AI Agent Revolution is here. ⚡️

OpenAI's Operator, Anthropic's Claude & Google's agents are already booking flights, ordering food & searching for jobs autonomously.

DoorDash execs are asking: "What happens when only AI bots visit our site?"

We're building agentic workflows on a regular basis to replace entire marketing teams, with our dialed-in Content Machine (AI product at @FirstMoversAI).

It's not about adapting fastest—but adapting best.
Companies that thoughtfully integrate with agent ecosystems rather than fighting them will thrive.

Interesting approach from Walmart: AI-to-AI communication where their systems talk directly to consumer agents.

The winners won't be those who panic or those who ignore—but those who strategically position for an agent-mediated world.
