The traditional time-and-materials (hourly) model has been the backbone of IT and consulting services for decades, but that may be changing. Modern AI tools – from code-generating assistants and automated testing frameworks to data analytics and generative documentation – are slashing the hours required for routine tasks. In effect, AI is “turning hours into minutes”: … Read more
In the summer of 2020, a landmark experiment unfolded at a Johns Hopkins laboratory. Observers tuned into a virtual dogfight between a seasoned F-16 pilot and an AI agent trained by a private contractor. The result was startling: the AI won every engagement, 5–0. The contest – DARPA’s AlphaDogfight Trials – played out like an … Read more
The CEO of Anthropic, Dario Amodei, recently made headlines by predicting that artificial intelligence could automate up to 50% of all white-collar tasks within the next few years.

For Gen Z, the first generation to enter the workforce in an era of pervasive AI, the traditional “entry-level job” may soon be a relic of the past. This poses a serious threat not just to individual job seekers, but to the long-term sustainability of skilled labor and innovation. The Disappearance of Entry-Level Roles Entry-level … Read more
In a recent interview, Demis Hassabis, co-founder and CEO of DeepMind, expressed what many technologists have quietly feared for years: Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) is coming—possibly within the next five to ten years—and society may not be prepared to face the consequences. This bold assertion has reignited discussions around how transformative, and potentially disruptive, AGI … Read more
As artificial intelligence continues its rapid evolution, its impact on gaming is becoming increasingly significant—transforming how we play, design, and even imagine games. With the recent advances in generative AI for video and world modeling, many are beginning to speculate: could we one day create fully interactive, personalized games from a simple text prompt? At … Read more
In a world driven by innovation, it’s no longer unthinkable to imagine a billion-dollar enterprise run by just one individual. Dario Amodei’s prediction of this milestone occurring as early as 2026 sparks both curiosity and controversy. While it sounds far-fetched, examining the trajectory of technology and entrepreneurship reveals how such a reality might come to … Read more
In a recent demonstration from Shenzhen, China, humanoid robots were seen working on a warehouse floor, performing basic tasks like lifting and moving crates. These mechanical laborers mark what some are calling the first generation of humanoid workers, and their presence is igniting a wave of debate on the future of labor, automation, and the … Read more
In a world where technology evolves at a breakneck pace, the boundaries of what we perceive as real are becoming increasingly blurred. The latest development in AI-generated video and audio content has stunned audiences, offering creations so lifelike that they are nearly indistinguishable from reality. However, this technological leap raises profound questions about trust, authenticity, … Read more
By now, Eric Schmidt’s warning has reverberated through headlines and social media echo chambers alike: “The computers are now self-improving… they’re learning how to plan… and soon, they won’t have to listen to us anymore.” It’s a chilling pronouncement from someone who once helmed Google, now forecasting a future in which artificial superintelligence (ASI) will … Read more
