I will start by my answer:

I am scared of the future as hell:

  • Big companies seem to win, at least that is what it seems to me right now.
  • Humans are becoming less social in a trend that is accelerating.
  • There is no one, as far as I know, that is working on a set of rigid AI regulations that will ensure that it limits or control its harms and capabilities.
  • People around the world are losing their freedoms gradually with almost no way to get them back.
  • Everything around me seems to get uglier, from wars to hunger and it does not seem to be improving anytime soon.

What do you people think?

    This is my 2026 prediction:

    • Trump has an embolism possibly caused by a not so great and beautiful diet. They stall as much as possible swearing in the VP alleging Trump may recover.

    And then, right before it seems the VP will become the next president, a set of big tech companies claims that they have created [sic] a seamless AI copy of Donald J. Trump and is, for all means [sic again] the same conscience.

    Most politicians call it bullshit and actively fight it, but then the Supreme Court approves it and suddenly the country is led by an LLM model mad libbing Trump tweets.

    This goes for 45 days until a bipartisan vote… who am I kidding? No, it goes on and on, and now corporations are burning through the equivalent power consumption of Australia to get “the best” DJT GPT model so they can get their turn at the wheel.

    Yadda yadda nuclear war yadda yadda the end.
