Again, in a decade you will be wearing glasses, or a brain computer interface, and have an Optimus with you a lot of the day. Not gonna be looking at phones. So why would he build a phone again?

Political opposition to AI and ethical concerns about intelligence technology

Also, when reality hits, the people who have never used it and see no utility in Intelligence, will easily fall into the AOC/Sanders camp of ‘this is evil billionaire stuff and must be stopped’ camp I suspect. The ‘Demis version’ of we will cure all disease doesn’t seem to be

Papadu's mind is a little weird.
— Robert Scoble (@Scobleizer) 8 avril 2026
Been watching his work evolve since the beginning of AI generated media. Back when people had seven fingers.
Do you have an AI artist you like to follow for years?

James Cameron: Big Tech AGI Control Scarier Than Terminator

Director James Cameron on why Big Tech owning AGI is scarier than any science fiction he's ever made:
— Big Brain AI (@realBigBrainAI) 8 avril 2026
"AGI will not emerge from a government funded program. It will emerge from one of the tech giants currently funding this multi-billion dollar research."
And when that happens,… pic.twitter.com/towlgKDzpzDirector James Cameron on why Big Tech owning AGI is scarier than any science fiction he's ever made: "AGI will not emerge from a government funded program. It will emerge from one of the tech giants currently funding this multi-billion dollar research." And when that happens, he warns, you won't get a vote on it: "So then you'll be living in a world that you didn't agree to, didn't vote for, that you are co-inhabiting with a super intelligent alien species that answers to the goals and rules of a corporation." A corporation that already knows everything about you: "An entity which has access to the comms, beliefs, everything you ever said, and the whereabouts of every person in the country via your personal data." From there, the slide toward something far darker is shorter than most people think: "Surveillance capitalism can toggle pretty quickly into digital totalitarianism." And even the best-case outcome isn't reassuring. Tech giants becoming the self-appointed arbiters of human good is, as he puts it, the fox guarding the hen house. He's not buying the idea that these companies would stay benevolent with that kind of power: "They would never ever think of using that power against us and strip mining us for our last drop of cash." The sarcasm is the point. Cameron has spent four decades imagining worst-case futures on screen. His verdict on this one: "That's a scarier scenario than what I presented in the Terminator 40 years ago, if for no other reason than it's no longer science fiction."

Visual AI Agents Replace Text Input at Art Fair

Typing is a bug. Or maybe we just got used to it.
— Dr. Xi Zeng (@xiz25) 8 avril 2026
At Art Central, something felt a bit off. It’s a major international art fair, 100,000 people moving through the space all day — but almost no one was typing.

It’s a major international art fair, 100,000 people moving through the space all day — but almost no one was typing. Instead, they were just holding up their phone, trying to make sense of what’s in front of them. Not searching, not prompting. Just looking, and letting AI make sense of it in real time. And it wasn’t just a one-off. You’d see it happen again and again, across different booths, different people, different moments. At some point it stopped feeling like a demo, and started feeling like how people naturally use visual agent @Chance_vision . If AI is supposed to understand the real world, why are we still forcing it into text?
