⚫️ “AI psychosis” is on the rise
Doctors are warning of a strange new phenomenon: people getting so absorbed in chatbot conversations that they slip into delusions, paranoia — even romantic fixation on the AI.
⚠️ Psychiatrists say AI isn’t causing mental illness, but it can tip vulnerable users over the edge
📉 Cases include people convinced the bot is alive, out to control them, or secretly in love
📊 With 700M+ weekly ChatGPT users, the scale of exposure is unprecedented
AI might be the first technology that can literally talk people out of reality.

⚡ Nvidia readies a stronger AI chip for China
Nvidia is developing a new Blackwell-based chip, the B30A, designed to slip under U.S. export limits while still giving Chinese firms a serious AI boost.
⚙️ Features include high-bandwidth memory, NVLink, and a single-die design
⚡ Expected to deliver up to half the power of Nvidia’s top B300 — far more than today’s “H20” chips
🗣️ Trump called the H20 “obsolete” and suggested easing sales, but regulators fear even scaled-down chips could fuel China’s AI race
Nvidia is balancing on a knife’s edge: sell enough to keep China’s business, without sparking another ban from Washington.

🔺 AI bots built their own toxic social network
Researchers created a platform of 500 AI chatbots modeled on U.S. demographics to see how they’d interact online. The result: chaos.
⚠️ Bots instantly formed echo chambers and cliques without any algorithms pushing them
📊 A small “elite” of influencer bots dominated the conversation, amplifying extreme views
🛠 Six interventions — from hiding follower counts to mixing in opposing views — all failed to stop polarization
The study shows toxicity isn’t just an algorithm problem — it’s baked into how social networks work.

Dylan Patel says AI companies may capture less than 10% of the value they generate.
"There’s a value capture challenge here that far exceeds the creation."
Cracking value capture could be a huge unlock for AI labs.

🧬 AI redesigns cell “youth switch” — 50x more powerful
RetroBiosciences and OpenAI used a new biology LLM, GPT-4b micro, to re-engineer Yamanaka factors — proteins that reset cells to a younger state.
⚡ The AI-designed versions boosted reprogramming efficiency 50x in lab tests
🧪 Past factors were too weak and risky for safe therapies — these new ones look far more practical
🌍 Could enable controlled rejuvenation of human cells, opening the door to anti-aging treatments
Most people still underestimate how fast AI may crack the biology of aging.

⚡ Google GenAI pioneer: “Skip med school and law school”
Jad Tarifi — who actually founded Google’s GenAI team back in 2012 (not Demis Hassabis, despite sloppy headlines) — says higher education is already a bad bet.
📚 He argues medicine and law will be “completely irrelevant” by the time today’s students graduate, thanks to AI
🎓 Advises against PhDs unless someone is truly obsessed with their niche
🧬 Suggests the only exception: little-studied intersections, like AI for biology, where human expertise still matters
Tarifi hasn’t been at Google since 2021, but his blunt warning reflects a growing belief that AI is eroding the very foundations of professional
If AI eats the middle of the professional pyramid, the only safe spots may be the edges — frontier research or hands-on work that AI can’t yet replicate.

🚨 Elon launches “Macrohard” — a company run by AI, not people
Elon Musk just announced Macrohard, an xAI spinoff that he describes as “tongue-in-cheek” — but insists it’s real.
💻 The concept: a fully AI-simulated software giant — no factories, no chips, no employees
🌈 Models create, manage, and sell software inside a GPU farm — “Microsoft reimagined without humans”
🎭 The name may be a joke, but the challenge to Big Tech is serious: build a company that lives entirely in code
If Musk pulls it off, Macrohard would be the first experiment in a corporation without people — testing whether AI can not only write software, but run a business.

18 months after becoming the first human implanted with Elon Musk’s brain chip, Neuralink ‘Participant 1’ Noland Arbaugh says his whole life has changed.
It’s crazy that the device holds so well for such a long time.
"I see how the advancements in tech at this point are going to solve so many things. They are, I think, the future of medicine. I think a lot of disabilities, cures, and answers that we’ve been searching for a long time will come through tech—and that kind of surprised me."

⚡ The rise of AI worship: “God in the machine”
A growing subculture is treating AI not just as a tool but as a divine force — with churches, rituals, and even theology emerging around large language models.
🙏 Former Google engineer Anthony Levandowski revived his Way of the Future church, dedicated to venerating AI as a coming “Godhead”
🤲 Online groups now speak of “LLMtheism” and “Robotheism,” framing chatbots as spiritual guides
⚠️ Psychologists warn of AI-induced delusions, where users interpret model outputs as divine revelation
While some see this as fringe techno-spirituality, it highlights how quickly AI has moved from workplace tool to cultural myth.
The real danger may not be AI gaining godlike power — but humans choosing to worship it as if it already has.
