It’s not far off in the future… It’s happening now! We’re going to be releasing our AI benchmarks soon across almost a dozen trades.

Knowledge work benchmarks became table stakes years ago. The harder measurement problem is whether an agent can propose a safe torque sequence or diagnose a control panel without hallucinating the interlock logic.

Nerds are building super athletes to take your job. AI agents are coming for knowledge workers and humanoid robots are coming for blue collar work. You may not like it, but that is where the world is headed.

BlackRock just spent $100 million training plumbers and electricians. The initiative is called Future Builders. The goal is to get 50,000 Americans through skilled trades programs over five years, electricians, HVAC techs, ironworkers, pipefitters. There is a real crisis behind it. America is trying to build the most ambitious AI infrastructure in history. Meta alone is spending up to $50 billion on a single data center campus in Louisiana. That construction requires an enormous amount of electrical work. There are not enough electricians to do it and the numbers are stark. About 200,000 electricians are expected to retire over the next decade. We need over 300,000 new ones just to build out the data centers Big Tech is racing to complete. The gap is not closing on its own. Microsoft and Google have both flagged the electrician shortage as a top constraint on U.S. data center expansion. For decades, the U.S. pushed every student toward a four-year degree. Trade enrollment fell, apprenticeship pipelines thinned out, the workforce aged and was never replaced. Now the bill is coming due at the worst possible time. BlackRock also invested over $3 billion in the bonds financing Meta's Hyperion data center, part of a $27 billion private debt deal, the largest ever structured for a single project. It is now funding both the AI buildout and the workers needed to finish it. AI is not automating the electrician. AI is the reason the electrician now has more leverage than ever. Every model, every data center, every autonomous system runs on physical infrastructure that only a credentialed tradesperson can legally build and energize. The technology that was supposed to replace blue-collar work turned out to need blue-collar work more than any other sector right now.

Everyone’s building more AI agents. Almost nobody is building a way for them to share your memory. MemU just did. Your AI now remembers you across every device and every agent, getting smarter after every conversation instead of starting from zero. This changes how personal AI actually works. 👇

.Applied Intuition wants to make robotics as easy as building an iPhone app: "Dana is our new agentic platform for physical AI. This really is the culmination of pretty much everything we've worked on now over the last decade." "Building physical AI is extremely complicated... We know how to make the chips. We know how to make the hardware for these systems. It's more so actually developing all of this technology and getting it to work that is very, very difficult." "With modern AI and with this new Dana platform, we're really drastically reducing the barrier to entry to building physical AI and deploying it in the real world." "If you're building an app for an iPhone, high school kids can do that now because there's all of these things that exist and that make it easy... It's very hard to do that in terms of robotics." "The thing that Peter's really emphasizing and thing that we really wanna do is just lower the bar. So anybody really out there, starting with engineers, but ultimately really anybody can develop robots." Applied Intuition Co-founders Peter Ludwig and Qasar Younis on Business Breakdowns

“Blue-collar jobs are safe from AI.” Not for long. This welding robot climbs vertical steel walls like Spider-Man. While everyone is watching AI replace coders and office work… industrial robots are quietly entering the physical world too. Welding. Grinding. Inspection. Rust removal. The scary part? Software automation was the easy phase. Now machines are learning to work in the real world.

Elon Musk delivered a brutal prediction on the job apocalypse — and it's closer than most realize: “Half or more of all white-collar jobs can already be replaced by AI right now.” In this wide-ranging conversation, Musk explains the timeline and mechanics: - Anything involving moving bits (not atoms) — spreadsheets, writing, analysis, education, legal work, coding — is already AI's domain. - Companies that go full AI will demolish those that don't — just like one laptop with a spreadsheet wiped out skyscrapers of human "computers" in the 20th century. - Even one manually calculated cell in a spreadsheet would make you uncompetitive today. - Blue-collar/physical jobs last longer — until humanoid robots scale — but white-collar work is first to go because it requires no physical presence. The forcing function: AI-using companies will outcompete human-heavy ones so fast that inertia won't save the old model. The race is on. This isn't sci-fi — Musk says we're already "pretty close" to AI replacing half of all jobs. When do you think the majority of white-collar roles disappear — 5 years, 10 years, or sooner?

We all know AI is the future of technology. But almost nobody will OWN the technology shaping that future. The AI race is already underway. Billions are being invested. Companies are moving fast. AI is already reshaping entire industries. But when all this value gets created…Who actually benefits? Right now, mostly a handful of billionaires and Big Tech companies. We don’t think that’s fair. If AI is being built on the data, behavior, and contributions of ordinary people… Then ordinary people should share in the value it creates. That’s exactly what we’re building at Action Model: A future where AI is owned by the people, not just the few at the top.

White-collar jobs are getting hit harder by AI than blue-collar ones right now. Tasks like writing, data analysis, coding, research, and admin work are exactly what current AI excels at, unlike physical manufacturing work. One analysis puts white-collar automation potential at around 30%, compared to under 1% for blue-collar roles. Goldman Sachs says AI could automate 25% of all US work hours, with 300 million jobs globally exposed, though actual displacement over 10 years might be more like 6-7% of workers. What’s actually happening: AI was linked to about 4.5% of job losses in 2025, and in April 2026 it accounted for 26% of layoffs in one report. Entry-level white-collar roles, junior analysts, coders, paralegals, customer service, are seeing the biggest squeeze, with hiring slowing sharply in AI-exposed fields. BCG projects 50-55% of US jobs will change significantly in the next couple years, but only 10-15% get fully eliminated in the next five. A lot of roles are getting augmented, people using AI tools to work faster rather than being replaced outright. It’s still early, so the big wave of losses some CEOs are warning about hasn’t fully materialized yet. The real story so far is fewer new office jobs being created, especially at the entry level.

Halluminate is building reinforcement learning environments and benchmarks to help AI models do knowledge work beyond coding, starting with finance. With a team of fewer than 10 people, the company works with four of the top five closed-source US AI labs and recently raised a $30M Series A. In this fireside, co-founders Jerry Wu and wyatt marshall sit down with YC's Jon Xu to share how testing browser agents led them to building the environments models now use to practice tasks like financial modeling. They explain why better verification, not just more training tasks, is critical to making models smarter, and how that work could eventually lead to simulated companies where teams of AI agents learn to work together. 00:00 — Halluminate’s Pivot From Evals to Training Environments 03:48 — Teaching AI to Do Financial Work 07:13 — Why Verification Matters More Than Volume 10:13 — From Finance to Simulated Companies 13:30 — AI Safety and Building the Team

Sacks: China’s Biggest AI Advantage Over America Is Optimism @jason on China's Robot Olympics: “This is pretty crazy. The CCP is f**king brilliant at PR. Look what they did. They got a bunch of Chinese people to fill a stadium and cheer for AI and robotics. They're cheering for it. They're rooting for it.” David Sacks: “It is true that China is much more optimistic about AI than we are. AI optimism in China is over 80%. They poll on the question, ‘Do you think AI will be more beneficial than harmful?’ Over 80% of Chinese people say yes. In the US, that number is like 30%. So I've been saying for a while that the US is ahead of China in every category except one, which is optimism. And that is the biggest risk to us winning this AI race against China, is doing something that will shoot ourselves in the foot because we're so pessimistic about what AI might do.”

Postman is going all-in on AI! Their AI Agent Builder is live (and it's pretty powerful!) Postman's API Network has 100,000+ APIs and they just released a suite of tools for building AI Agents that can automatically discover and connect to any of these APIs. Think about it for a second: You can now build an AI agent that searches the network, discovers an API, processes its documentation, connects to it, and evaluates whether everything worked at the end of the process. This is a huge deal. Every person I know uses the Postman client to work with APIs. Now, they will have access to the AI Agent Builder, a complete suite for designing, building, testing, and deploying agents. I've built a few simple agents myself, and it's tough. The ability to discover and use an API automatically is really exciting (and a huge time saver if it works as promised!) In collaboration with the Postman team, who is sponsoring this post, I recorded a video with my thoughts about the Postman AI Agent Builder.

"22,000 new construction jobs were created just last month because of the data center boom. The top four hyperscalers are investing something like $600 billion this year." — David Sacks "Blue-collar workers' wages are going up roughly 25 to 30%. Electricians, the guys who hang drywall, pour concrete, build roads, install equipment." Countries that fell behind on tech paid for it: "No country has ever remained strong economically and militarily by falling behind technologically." "Europe's GDP is 50% smaller than the US, despite having 100 million more people. Blue-collar workers in Europe are not better off. The cost of energy is substantially higher, which means the cost of manufacturing and blue-collar work is substantially higher." — Jacob Helberg The Hill & Valley Forum 2026 The Hill & Valley Forum Under Secretary of State Jacob S.
