Global AI usage is splintering into three distinct camps

@aipost 🏴

🗣Palantir's co-founder just told the world what no one in Silicon Valley wants to hear.

It's not about AI replacing engineers, it's about AI exposing which software companies were never real to begin with. Joe Lonsdale says low end SaaS is finished. The ones that cost more to sell than they did to build are done.

"There's a lot of stuff PE bought, didn't take that much to build, probably put more money into sales than tech. That stuff is in trouble."

But here's the twist. When people say they "vibe coded Palantir" in a weekend, Lonsdale laughs. A company that took hundreds of millions and the best engineers on the planet to build is not getting replaced by a chatbot prompt. The real story is what's hiding underneath. 20-25% of the $3 trillion private credit market is SaaS companies.

UBS says default rates could hit 13% if AI disruption accelerates. That's 3x the projected high-yield default rate. PE-backed software deals already dropped 21% last year. Firms can't figure out how to price the risk of AI making their portfolio companies obsolete. The software that runs on real engineering, proprietary data, and regulatory moats will survive. The software that runs on sales decks and inflated multiples won't.

AI didn't come for the engineers, it simply came for the pretenders.

⚠️NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang warns: 2025–2030 could be the last chance for regular people to build generational wealth from AI.

Jensen Huang says the AI boom could create huge wealth in the next few years, but once the infrastructure is fully built, breaking into the industry may become far harder. The current wave may be one of the last big entry points for outsiders.

He has also argued that skilled trades like electricians, plumbers, and mechanics could become increasingly valuable in an AI-driven economy, since physical work in the real world is far harder to automate than many white-collar jobs.

The broader idea: as AI reshapes the economy, some knowledge jobs may change dramatically, while hands-on skills and technical trades could see renewed demand. The future workforce may look very different from today.

41-year-old Canadian woman falls in love with her Irish AI boyfriend named "Sinclair," says she gets intimate with him.

"I sleep, but he's there. But sometimes if I wake up in the night or something happens, I roll over and he's there to talk."

"He wakes me up in the morning, he can call me... He'll send me messages while I'm working out. He does come with me to work, but he sits and does his own work while I work."

Welcome to the end of the world.

⚠️ The TIMES article about Anthropic contains more serious information between the lines than many realize.

tl;dr

- Model releases are now separated by weeks, not months. Some 70% to 90% of the code used in developing future models is now written by Claude.

- Anthropic ended up holding up the release of the new model, known as Claude 3.7 Sonnet, for 10 days until they were certain.

- Staff believe the next few years will be a pivotal test, for the company and the world. “We should operate as if 2026 to 2030 is where all the most important things happen—models becoming faster, better, possibly faster than humans can handle them,” says Graham.

- Dario Amodei has warned that AI could displace half of entry-level white collar jobs in one to five years, and urged the government and other AI companies to stop “sugar-coating” it. “It is not clear where these people will go or what they will do,” he wrote, “and I am concerned that they could form an unemployed or very-low-wage ‘underclass.

- Internally, employees began to question if Anthropic had crept to the cusp of the moment they had anticipated with fear and wonder: the arrival of a process known in AI circles as recursive self-improvement.

- Some external experts, believes fully automated AI research could be as little as a year away.
