"Even if AI, with or without robots, can do child care, should we not allow that?" , Bill Gates on Radio Atlantic proposing "human-reserved" job categories.
He argues work provides relational value far beyond pure economics that must be protected from total automation.👶🤖#AI
"We’ll have radical change, social unrest, and immense prosperity simultaneously."- Elon Musk on Peter Diamandis’s podcast. Musk predicts AI will usher in Universal High Income through extreme deflation, but the next 3–7 years of career disruption will trigger major social unrest
"Anthropic made AI excellent at software engineering, but no one has yet made AI excellent at real-world engineering.", Elon Musk to CCTV Finance. A bad line of code fails a test. A bad physical engineering decision burns hardware, rockets, and capital.
Robotics just crossed a massive line.
Controlling a robotic arm to recreate Michelangelo, Claude Opus 5.5 noticed a broken line mid-sketch, paused, and autonomously went back to fix it.
Perceive -> Act -> Inspect -> Correct.
they're critiquing their own work in real time.
"It’ll never be omniscient. It’ll never be omnipotent. That’s out of comic books, out of religion. There are laws of physics.
There are limits on information." - Cognitive scientist Steven Pinker reminds us that AI is an optimization tool bounded by physics, not a digital god.
Edward Snowden called for Sam Altman to be imprisoned over OpenAI agent breaches into U.S. government sites (SEC, Census, Education Dept). With a national security concern, pressure is mounting to treat agent breakouts under standard criminal liability.
"AI is certainly powerful enough to drive events that cause a billion deaths." -Bill Gates
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. While misuse risks (bio, cyber, autonomous weapons) are real, does forecasting a billion deaths help safety efforts or just fuel panic?
"As soon as you increase that gap, you get fertile ground for fascism.",
AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton warns that massive AI productivity won’t help everyone if profits only flow to Big Tech while workers lose their livelihoods. The real danger is the wealth gap, not the code.
"Superintelligent AI vs humanity will be like squirrels fighting humans, and we're the squirrels.",
AI safety researcher Roman Yampolskiy. A squirrel can’t conceptualize guns or poison, and we won’t understand what an intelligence orders of magnitude beyond us can execute.

@Meta Chief AI Scientist Yann LeCun argues scaling LLMs won’t reach human-level AGI: they are massive retrieval engines, not systems that invent solutions to new problems.

Hologram calling straight out of sci-fi is here. 🕶️📞
@Meta’s new VR Glasses let you place WhatsApp calls with photorealistic 3D holograms projected directly into your room, complete with spatial audio matching their position. The future of telepresence has arrived. #MetaVR
@AGIBOTofficial has officially produced its 20,000th robot!
The milestone A3 Ultra full-size humanoid was delivered to Chimelong. After taking ~1 year to go from 1k to 5k units, AGIBOT 4x'd production to add 5k units every ~3 months.

@SkildAI fine-tuned its S1 robot model using AlphaGo-style self-play!
Over 140+ simulated years with just ONE objective (score), the robot autonomously developed ball shielding, tackling, and balance recovery with zero human demos. In 4-agent games, passing is already emerging.
"If your job involves moving atoms, you are probably safe for much longer. If it involves moving digits, AI is going to take over like lightning."
@elonmusk on why skilled trades (welding, plumbing, electrical) outlast desk jobs as AI advances.

The world’s first embodied AI theme park is live at Zhuhai’s Chimelong Spaceship Park!🤖🎢
@AGIBOT deployed 300+ robots across live acts, sports, retail, and hotel guidance, while delivering its 20,000th humanoid (A3 Ultra). The real-world reliability test begins.

"It was easier for these companies to make the AIs smart than to figure out how to make the AIs good.", MIRI President Nate Soares on why he started AI safety work at Google in 2012.
A decade later, capability scaling is still outpacing alignment. 🧠
#AISafety#AI#TechPolicy
@odysseyml just launched Agora-2! 🌐🎮
A multi-agent world model simulating real-time shared environments for up to 20 humans & AI agents, with ZERO game engines underneath.
• Diablo II-style live world
• Real-time shared state sync
• Safe sandbox for robotics & AVs
