There's a non-zero chance that human labor and intelligence could be surplus to requirements in the mid-to-near future. That would entail a seismic shift in the balance of power and the way societies and economies function. Let's discuss some ideas.

"I've never seen any technology advance faster than this." The chip shortage may be behind us, but AI and EVs are expanding at such a rapacious rate that the world will face supply crunches in electricity and transformers next year, says Elon Musk.

Google DeepMind's Genie turns images into playable video games in one step – but it's just the latest in a rapidly converging list of technologies that point to a bizarre sci-fi future of interactive entertainment, designed and run by real-time AIs.
-
If OpenAI's Sora heralds the end of videography, ElevenLabs has just fired a broadside over the foley and sounds effects departments, with another groundbreaking new AI that takes silent video and generates audio to match, taking text guidance.
-
AI-generated video was a complete joke less than a year ago; look what it can do now. OpenAI has announced its new Sora model, which turns descriptive text into video, and calling it a frighteningly massive leap forward feels like an understatement.
-
Google has unveiled its awesome next-gen Gemini AI, claiming it outperforms OpenAI's GPT-4 – as well as human experts – on nearly all major tests. It understands images, video and audio as well as text and code, and will gain other senses over time.
-
OpenAI has released a voice-capable ChatGPT iPhone app, and Anthropic has introduced a neat Slack plugin for its own AI assistant Claude, which is similar to ChatGPT but notably quicker, and able to access the internet and handle much more text.
-
OpenAI is making rapid advances in a new text-to-3D object system it's been working on. The Shap-E AI, available as an open-source download, can generate 3D assets straight from a text description, or build them from supplied images.
-
Deep learning neural nets have begun a roughshod rampage through the creative arts sectors, and if musicians thought they were safe from the AIs that plague the nightmares of writers, artists and others, they've got another think coming.
-
Badly bloodied by OpenAI's GPT-4, Google has struck back with a new, more powerful large language model (LLM) to upgrade Bard and create a suite of new AI services – starting with a model targeted at doctors. It also teased its next-gen Gemini AI.
-
Thomas Edison once described genius as "one percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration" – but AI systems like MetaGPT can already reduce that sweat to nearly nothing when it comes to coding and deploying simple apps and websites.
-
This is no puny chatbot. AutoGPT is a stack of AIs, managed by other AIs. It goes and gets jobs done for you, figuring things out step by step and adjusting on the fly. It's an early, but janky glimpse at how autonomous AI will change your life.
