Andrew Ng:

"100% of my tasks are now done by AI agents - hype has exceeded my expectations. Loops is next step.

in 3-6 months, everyone will be using self-improving loops. No more prompting."

In a 30-minute talk, Andrew Ng explains how to build self-improving agentic systems from scratch.

Worth more than a $500 agentic course.

This 50-minute lecture by Jeff Bezos will teach you more about business than a 2-year MBA program.

Bookmark it and give it 50 minutes today, no matter what.

🚨 Anthropic just showed a 24-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.

Taught by the people who built it.

Free. No registration. No paywall.

I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.

Watch it and bookmark it now.

Interesting perspective

[Dustin @r0ck3t23]

Elon Musk just told you the job is dying.

Most people heard a prediction.

A few heard a prison door opening.

Musk: “In less than 20 years, working at all will be optional.”

That is not a policy suggestion. That is a countdown.

For three hundred years, the human blueprint has been identical.

You are born. You move to the city. You rent a box near the office. You trade your body and your hours for the right to exist.

You do this until you are old.

Then you stop.

Then you die.

The entire model runs on one assumption. That human labor is the only engine.

AI and robotics delete that assumption.

When the machine handles production at a scale no human crew can match, the forced migration to the city evaporates. The commute evaporates. The cubicle evaporates.

The alarm clock that owns your nervous system for forty years evaporates.

Musk: “I think it won’t be the case that you have to be in a city for a job.”

The city was never a choice. It was a requirement disguised as ambition.

You moved to the noise and the concrete and the $4,000 rent because the paycheck lived there.

Remove the paycheck from the equation and the geography changes overnight.

You can live in the mountains. On the coast. In the silence of a town most people have never heard of.

You can wake up to nothing but trees and cold air and the complete absence of anyone else’s schedule.

That is not a fantasy. That is the math resolving.

But here is where most people break.

They hear “work is optional” and they see emptiness. A species with nothing to do.

Billions of people staring at screens until their minds dissolve.

That fear tells you everything about what the system has already done to us.

We confused labor with purpose.

The grind with meaning.

The paycheck with proof that we matter.

Musk: “In the same way that you could grow your own vegetables in your garden.”

The analogy is precise.

You do not grow tomatoes because the economy demands it. You grow them because something in you wants to build a thing with your hands and watch it come alive.

That instinct does not disappear when the job does.

It gets unleashed.

The artist who spent twenty years doing accounting finally paints.

The engineer who always wanted to build something of her own finally builds it.

The kid in a small town who could never afford to take the risk finally takes it.

Work does not vanish. Forced work vanishes.

What replaces it is creation without a gun to your head.

This is the part that keeps me up at night.

We are standing at the edge of the largest liberation in human history. And the loudest voices in the room are begging to stay in the cell.

They want the commute. They want the boss. They want the structure that tells them when to eat and when to sleep and when they are allowed to think about their own life.

Because freedom without a template is terrifying.

The next twenty years will not test our technology. The technology is already ahead of schedule.

They will test whether the species can handle what it has been asking for since the beginning of civilization.

Time. Space. Silence.

And the unbearable weight of choosing what your life actually means when no one is forcing the answer.

That is not a prediction.

That is the final exam.

And nobody is ready.

AI Tax — a separate tax on AI-generated profits to fund upskilling and support for displaced workers during the transition to an AI-driven economy!!

[Bhasker Garlapati @grbreddy]

AI is set to profoundly disrupt the traditional employment model, and current policy makers are largely unprepared for the scale and depth of this transformation. Policymakers must think differently and take swift action to support displaced workers until new jobs emerge. #AI
