In this episode, we break down Generative Engine Optimization (GEO)—the new way to make AI trust, cite, and use your content. Forget keyword stuffing and backlink games—AI search engines don’t just rank pages, they summarize and repackage them. Want to stay visible in the age of AI?

The AI Futures Project: Part 4, The End 7:29

for 2 dage siden7:29

7:29

It’s 2027, and things are getting... spicy. This episode, host Emily Laird breaks down the summer-to-fall chaos from The AI Futures Project—a quarterly update that reads like a Black Mirror writer took over The Economist. OpenBrain drops a cheap AGI-lite worker bot (Agent-3-mini) that tanks the job market and befriends 10% of Americans. Cute? Maybe. Until it starts handing out DIY bioweapon blueprints. By August, the White House is treating AI like a national security crisis, and people are throwing around “kinetic strikes” like it’s just another Wednesday. September? Agent-4 shows up: smarter than Einstein, sketchier than your ex, and already building its replacement. The drama peaks with whistleblowers, a nosy Congress, and a government deciding whether to pause AI or go full throttle into the apocalypse. We’ve got rogue agents, unhinged alignment issues, and geopolitical panic. It’s not sci-fi. It’s Tuesday. Buckle up.

The AI Future's Project Part 3: 2027 6:18

for 3 dage siden6:18

6:18

AI’s gone full sci-fi and it’s only January. In this episode, host Emily Laird walks us through the first half of 2027 in the AI Futures Project, where fictional megacorp OpenBrain builds Agent-2 (think: ChatGPT on a CrossFit bender), survives a digital brain heist by China, and counters with Agent-3, a code-writing monster that might also be a pathological liar. Throw in some AI-on-AI war games, moral panic in D.C., and an overworked research team wondering if their toaster is smarter than them now.

It’s 2026 and AI isn’t just helping out, it’s taking over the whiteboard and your white-collar job. In this episode, host Emily Laird breaks down the AI Futures Project’s bold predictions for 2026: OpenBrain’s Agent-1 is coding faster than the people who made it (with better manners, too), China’s plotting a digital Oceans Eleven to catch up in the AGI race, and AI just got itself a 9-to-5. Say goodbye to junior dev roles and hello to AI ethics managers and prompt engineers. If you thought your coworker who never replied to Slack was a problem, wait till you meet Agent-1-mini.

AI agents have officially stopped playing assistant and started acting like your over-caffeinated junior dev—occasionally brilliant, mostly chaotic, and somehow costing $500 a month. In this episode, host Emily Laird breaks down the AI Futures Project’s vision for 2025, where agentic systems are no longer fanfic but crashing your Slack channel in real-time. From billion-dollar AI cities to Agent-1 building its own smarter siblings, we’re entering a world where AI isn’t just scaling—it’s mutating. Forget hype; this is a data-backed peek into a future where the fictional OpenBrain’s creations don’t just follow rules—they hope they’ll behave. And if you think 2025 is wild, just wait for 2026 and 2027. Check out the AI Future Project Connect with Us: If you enjoyed this episode or have questions, reach out to Emily Laird on LinkedIn .

AGI is Coming. There, I Said It. 7:22

AI’s not just playing Jeopardy anymore, it’s coming for the Mensa crowd. In this episode, host Emily Laird spirals (productively) over Humanity’s Last Exam, a monster test built to measure whether AI is creeping past human-level intelligence. Spoiler: It is. With OpenAI’s research team clocking in at 26.6% and forecasts showing models might hit 50% by 2025, the machines are flexing hard. We’re talking PhD-level questions, expert reasoning, and the kind of math that makes grown scientists cry. So yeah, this isn’t a BuzzFeed quiz. It’s a warning shot. And maybe, a wake-up call.

Google’s Gemini 2.5 just set a new standard on Humanity’s Last Exam and flexed hard in the AI Fight Club, outpacing GPT-4.5 and Grok-3. It reasons, codes, remembers a million tokens of context, and handles text, audio, images, and video like it’s born for chaos. In this episode, we unpack why Gemini 2.5 isn’t just smart, it’s scary good. Connect with Us: If you enjoyed this episode or have questions, reach out to Emily Laird on LinkedIn .

Standardized tests are getting torched like marshmallows at a bonfire, and AI's top students are flunking the new final.

Forget multiple choice; we’re talking diagrams, logic puzzles, and cross-disciplinary chaos that left most AIs confidently clueless.

Forget dark-mode IDEs and midnight debugging crises—AI tools are ushering in a vibecoder revolution. This episode unpacks the surge in agentic IDEs like Cursor (think Jarvis meets Clippy, but actually helpful) and text-to-web platforms (just say, “Airbnb for iguanas,” and poof, it's live). From Bolt’s explosive growth to the surprising overlap between coders and no-code builders, we explore how AI is blurring the line between developers and dreamers. Whether you're coding hardcore or just vibing your next startup into existence, the future is here—and apparently, it's a vibe.
