The AI Arms Race to Build Digital God

Can we build an artificial intelligence so powerful that it changes the world and answers all of our questions? The AI industry has decided the answer is yes.

In September, OpenAI’s Sam Altman published a blog post claiming we’ll have superintelligent AI in “a few thousand days.” And earlier this month, Dario Amodei, the CEO of OpenAI competitor Anthropic, had similar sentiments — they both promise dramatic superintelligent AI that will bring massive improvements to work, science and healthcare, and even to democracy and prosperity. 

Digital god, baby.

But the race to create this Digital God is more than just making a ton of money… the people running these AI companies believe that winning this race is crucial to their survival.

“Hi I’m Flippy, May I Take Your Order?”

When Donald Trump served french fries through a McDonald's drive-through window in Pennsylvania this week, he probably didn't realize he was highlighting a sector about to be transformed by artificial intelligence. 

Just days after Trump's photo op, Nvidia (NVDA) announced a partnership with Miso Robotics to revolutionize fast-food cooking using advanced machine vision technology.

While politicians vie for votes by connecting with service workers, companies like Miso are developing AI-powered solutions that could reshape the entire restaurant industry. 

Miso’s "Flippy" robot, enhanced by Nvidia's vision systems, can handle everything from french fries to chicken nuggets with remarkable precision.

I've spent months analyzing the data. Not the polls — forget those.

I'm talking about real data. Money flows. Institutional positions. The quiet moves big players make while everyone else screams at each other on cable news.

And what I've found might surprise you.

Silver Squeeze 2024

It seems “silver squeeze” is a thing on social media this week. 

No doubt there are short sellers out there — betting on lower silver prices. And as the price rises, some of them will be squeezed — forced to cover their shorts, thus pushing the price still higher.

If silver is going to take off, there will have to be reasons other than a short squeeze. Fortunately, there are plenty.

Crypto Is Getting Hammered…

The cryptocurrency market is taking a hit right now, following the trend in the stock market. Just yesterday, Bitcoin dropped over 2.5%, settling around $65,000. 

This decline has put a damper on hopes of hitting that $70,000 mark, which seemed within reach just a week ago. 

It really shows how volatile the crypto market can be and how closely tied it is to traditional financial markets.
