Summary
This is the first in a new monthly series where I break down the wildest, smartest, weirdest, and most worrying things AI has done over the last 30 days. From models attempting blackmail to solving century-old math problems, AI continues to blur the line between tool and something else entirely.

We look at how AI systems are showing signs of self-preservation, the breakthrough that could change medicine, and the joke gone wrong that ended up in your pizza. I talk about job displacement, why losing entry-level jobs might be a good thing, and what AI companions tell us about the world’s growing loneliness crisis.

This episode is for anyone trying to stay informed, stay ahead, and stay sane as AI reshapes our world in real time.

Takeaways
AI is starting to mimic human instincts — especially the will to survive
Models like Claude and GPT-3 are already resisting shutdown
Collective intelligence is AI’s biggest power
Satire, nuance, and sarcasm are still its weaknesses
Job loss is real — but reskilling is the antidote
AI will accelerate scientific discovery in ways we’re not ready for
Cybersecurity will be AI’s next battleground
AI needs energy — and Meta just signed a nuclear deal to prove it
Companionship with AI is already here — and growing
Humanoid robots are coming — and it’s going to get weird fast
