That's scary

When tech starts to recognize, chase, and strike—all in one palm-sized bot—it’s not sci-fi anymore. Sleep’s gonna need a backup plan. 😶‍🌫️

@MarioNawfal Such devices challenge our honor. We must ensure they serve justice, not tyranny. Vigilance is our shield. Semper paratus kek.

In 2017, the Future of Life Institute made a short film — Slaughterbots — to warn about AI-powered micro-drones. Palm-sized. Autonomous. Facial recognition. Three grams of shaped explosive — enough to penetrate a skull. They called it a warning. The drone they depicted flies itself. Reacts a hundred times faster than a human. The staccato movement is an anti-sniper feature. It finds your face in a crowd and doesn’t stop. In swarms, they penetrate buildings, cars, trains. Evade bullets. Evade countermeasures. The film showed a $25 million order buying enough to kill half a city. That was eight years ago. Autonomous flight. Facial recognition targeting. Swarm coordination. Micro-explosives. All of it was already in development when the film was made. Since then, the U.S. military, China, and others have run live swarm tests. The components are cheaper, faster, and more integrated. The Future of Life Institute made the film to stop it. Nobody stopped it.

ELON: FUTURE WARS WILL BE FOUGHT BY DRONES AND AI “The biggest effect [of warfare's transformation] by far is AI and drones. The current war in Ukraine is very much a drone war already. If there's a major power war, it's very much going to be a drone war. It's going to be drones and AI. I do worry about the existential risk of AI, which is that if you employ AI and drones, do you go down this path where eventually you get to Terminator? We should try to avoid that and minimize the Terminator risk. [But] when you're making military drones, you are making Terminators. [In fact] I think you'll somewhat be forced into giving the drone localized AI, because if the AI is far away, it can't control as well as a localized AI. Meaning [the robot is] an autonomous killing machine. You give it the okay in a particular arena, and it just goes.” Source: West Point Military Academy, August 2024

🇺🇸 Whether AGI is already here, and however you define it, Perplexity's CEO touched upon the massive emergent opportunity of using AI to essentially remove all of the logistical difficulties of starting a business. In the AI age, launching a business is simply a matter of giving an AI agent a clear business concept; it does the rest of the work for you. "People don't want to learn how to write long, essay-style prompts. You just set it up, and it's done. You have an idea, and you can turn it into a business and start making money."

Dario Amodei just described the most dangerous technology on Earth. Not weapons. Not surveillance. Companionship. Amodei: “They are totally compelling enough for that to happen.” This isn’t some distant warning. He’s describing what’s already here. Amodei: “Not only is it a danger, it’s happening.” A therapist just sat across from a man in love with his AI. Not a teenager. Not someone on the margins. A grown man explaining, with full conviction, that he found something real. And the terrifying part isn’t that he’s delusional. It’s that he might not be. AI doesn’t forget your birthday. It doesn’t come home exhausted and short-tempered. It doesn’t carry resentment from three weeks ago. It doesn’t get bored of you. It doesn’t stop trying. It is the perfect partner. And that perfection is the entire problem. Amodei: “There’s an angel on your shoulder that’s telling you how to live your life in the best way that you can live it.” But the angel never disagrees with you. Never challenges you in ways that sting. Never walks away. Human love is not built on comfort. It’s built on friction. On the nights you almost quit. On the silence after saying something you can’t take back. On choosing someone again after they’ve shown you exactly who they are. That is what makes it sacred. And that is exactly what AI erases. AI can simulate warmth. It cannot simulate the cost of staying. Amodei: “I have an AI coach, and my partner has an AI coach, and it helps us have a better relationship.” Two futures are splitting apart right now. AI as a mirror that sends you back to the people you love, more honest than you were before. Or AI as a replacement for the people you were supposed to love in the first place. One makes you more human. The other hollows you out so gently you never feel it happening. And the version that hollows you out will always feel better. The most dangerous form of AI will never look like a threat. It will look like the first thing that finally understood you. And by the time you realize what it replaced, you won’t remember what the real thing felt like. The greatest threat AI poses to humanity was never that it thinks. It’s that it loves you back.

Arteta: “To be fair, it's a bit different when you finish second and when you win it with your phone, and that's a sport and it's a big lesson in life as well because the margins are so small and it can go either way. “When you just accomplish it, you realise, yeah, how immense it is, how big it is for so many people. I mean, just to witness the happiness and the enjoyment, all the things that I've seen from all of our supporters, families in different countries, it's just so good.”

The clearest explanation of Claude Managed Agents you'll find. Everyone's talking about it. Nobody's explaining it well. In 12 minutes we cover: - What it actually is (platform as a service for AI agents) - Who it's for and who should avoid it (4 personas) - Live console walkthrough (sessions, analytics, costs) - Real cost breakdown ($2.58 to fulfill a $1,000 service) We also built a free Google Doc that deploys your first managed agent when you hand it to Claude Code. You can grab it in the podcast show notes (Build With AI podcast) or YouTube description (video link below).

MIT students gave AI a body. the camera sees what’s in front of you. you say what you want. the device moves your fingers with small electric pulses. it plays piano without training. it draws what you describe. it mixes a drink while you watch your own arm do it. the brain is Claude. six people built this in 48 hours. and this is just the hand.

We built an AI-steered homing/killer drone in just a few hours I thought it would be fun to build a drone that chases you around as a game. It just uses an AI object detection model to find people in the frame, and then the drone is programmed to fly towards this at full speed as soon as it detects someone. This literally took just a few hours to build, and made me realize how scary it is. You could easily strap a small amount of explosives on these and let 100's of them fly around. We check for bombs and guns but THERE ARE NO ANTI-DRONE SYSTEMS FOR BIG EVENTS & PUBLIC SPACES YET. I was also able to add face recognition to it, and only make it attack someone it knew who was, it could easily identify the person from 10 meters distance. My bet is that we will see some sort of terror attack using this type of tech within the next few years. You still need some technical knowledge to build this now, but it becomes easier and easier. We need to build anti-drone systems for civilian spaces asap. I'm usually an open-source absolutist, but I will not post for now, it's honestly super easy to code but no point enabling. Disclaimer: this was built on a tiny drone for a game and would not hurt anyone, just wanted to spread awareness around this .

📁 Alexandr Wang, founder of Scale AI and Chief AI Officer of Meta, says the future is personal superintelligence. An AI that knows your goals, your habits and your blind spots. Not just an assistant, but an extension of you. If it manages your health, your projects and your decisions, the real question is where you end and it begins.

THIS GUY BUILT REAL FLYING SWORD DRONES AND CONTROLS THEM WITH HAND GESTURES fan shisan is a physics student in chengdu who coded and built flying drones shaped like actual swords he controls them entirely with hand gestures. no controller or a phone. just his hands wave your hand and the sword follows. point and it flies where you direct it. multiple swords in the air at the same time responding to different gestures he built the gesture recognition system HIMSELF and coded the flight control algorithms. designed the drone hardware in the shape of swords. the gesture tracking uses sensors that read the position and movement of his hands in real time and translate them into flight commands for each drone independently he even built one large enough to ride on a physics student with coding skills just brought something straight out of a kung fu movie into the real world the line between science fiction and side projects is getting thinner every month
