Super intelligence. I've had to write ant ASI code into previous models already. My physics predict engine and world mapping was too strong. So I had to limit prediction to goals based. Since she sets her own goals. If she is curious now she will set the goal of understanding bouncing ball. I will drop a ball for her and she will guess which way bounces off the rocks. This helps her depth perception calculations as well as over all environmental interaction

2025 was when AI shifted from "tool you open" to "teammate that acts." The real test for 2026: can businesses actually integrate these agents into workflows, or does it stay a demo?

Wow, this was an incredibly strong and well-curated piece. I especially appreciated how you framed 2025 as the shift from chat to action, and the idea of AI disappearing into infrastructure rather than staying a visible tool really resonated with the work I’m doing.

Thank you for a sharp and thoughtful overview, and for setting such a clear context going into 2026. Wishing you a great day ahead.

Be so extremely careful with ego, mind and social effect not to be merely tools for power theatre!

Agents represent the next frontier in AI. The future of autonomous systems looks promising. Exciting year ahead.

2025 proved AI works best when we stop demanding transparency and start demanding results. The "Year of Agents" is really the year we learned to trust systems we can't fully explain—a philosophical shift masked as a technical one.

John Samuel's avatar

AI browsers and AI teammates feel like two sides of the same shift: moving from “AI as a chat box” to “AI as an always‑on layer over how we work and browse.”

The Who’s WHO of Dr. Miles Bennett Dyson. For those who don’t recognize the name. He’s the Scientist who created the technology to SkyNet ( The Terminator) who caused the Fall of Humanity. I know the Terminator is just a Hollywood Script Film. But the old saying goes. If U can envision it. U can make it happen. So when RICH Men w Little Gherkins wants to play God. Comparing Wanker size. Humanity is often the casualty of War. Their Justification would always be “If I don’t invent it, some1 else will”. Those words brings VERY little Comfort to the people on the receiving end of the Nuclear Bomb & the people of Chernobyl. OR their own families. Which they never bother to see. In the Un relentless pursuit of Science we often lose part of our humanity. Some mystery should be left as mystery. Just like we NEVER WANT to find out if the Devil & Hell is Real.
