He predicted:

• The Deep Learning revolution (2008)
• The online education boom (2011)
• China's massive AI dominance (2014)

Now Andrew Ng revealed 5 opportunities that will create more millionaires than anything before.

Here's what you should know (& how to prepare): 🧵 Image
First, his track record:

Ng built Google Brain. Co-founded Coursera. Led Baidu's AI.

He's trained 8 million students and has $370M backing his AI Fund.

When Ng makes predictions, Silicon Valley listens.
1/ Agentic AI beats scaling models

The agentic AI market explodes from $5.1B to $69B by 2032.

That's 13x growth in 7 years.

Meanwhile, everyone's chasing bigger models that cost billions.

Ng proved something revolutionary:
Smaller models with agentic workflows outperform giants.

His 4 design patterns change everything:

• Reflection (AI critiques itself)
• Tool use (connects to APIs)
• Planning (breaks complex tasks)
• Multi-agent collaboration

JPMorgan already cut costs 30% using this.
2/ Military AI is the next gold rush

February 2025, Ng stunned Silicon Valley:

"I'm glad Google changed its stance on AI weapons."

His portfolio companies are already saving lives with autonomous drones.
3/ AGI is decades away

How do you know if he have AGI? Ng's test is simple:

"Until companies fire ALL intellectual workers, AGI hasn't arrived."

His companies focus on boring, profitable problems.
4/ China will dominate through open-source

"There's now a path for China to surpass the U.S. in AI."

Not through bigger models. Through speed.

Smart founders are already leveraging Chinese open models at 1/10th the cost.
5/ Small specialized models beat giants

The SLM market grows from $930M to $5.45B by 2032.

Why? Token prices crashed 90%. Edge computing is exploding.

Edge computing spending will hit $378B by 2028.

The shift is happening NOW. Image
Think about it:

Medical AI on phones. Factory AI on $99 devices. Retail AI with zero latency.

No cloud costs. No privacy concerns. No internet needed.

The infrastructure for the next wave of AI millionaires already exists.
The infrastructure is ready. The models are getting smaller and cheaper.

But there's one critical piece most companies miss when deploying AI at scale:

Trust.
The key insight:

Your customers need to trust your AI decisions. Regulators demand explainable models. Stakeholders require transparency.

Yet most AI deployments lack the governance frameworks to deliver this.

The winners understand something crucial:
In a world where anyone can deploy AI models, competitive advantage comes from trusted AI.

The companies scaling fastest aren't just deploying more models, they're deploying validated models with proper governance and monitoring.

This separates the leaders from the followers.

Senator Eric Schmitt's interview with the All-In Podcast just went viral.

And he's NOT just talking about free speech violations.

Instead, he exposed the truth about Biden's censorship machine and the FBI's Hunter laptop coverup.

Here are the 8 most shocking insights: 🧵 Image
1/ Strategic Legal Approach Reveals Hidden Evidence

Schmitt pursued discovery before seeking injunctive relief.

This yielded tens of thousands of internal government documents.

But what they found was more shocking than anyone expected...
2/ Documentation of Direct Government-Tech Coordination

Discovery uncovered specific communication channels between agencies and platforms.

Internal emails, text messages, and "special portals" for content flagging.
That's when everything changed...

President Trump just hosted an historic summit with Putin in Alaska.

One by one, Trump and Putin delivered major announcements and clues on what’s next—directly to the American people.

Here’s everything you should know (and no joke, it gets crazier the further you read): 🧵 Image

But this symbolic choice revealed something deeper... Image
2/ Putin's Emotional WWII Tribute

Putin laid flowers at Soviet war graves, honoring pilots who died in the Alaska air bridge during WWII.

The quality of your sleep decides the quality of your life.

But most people are doing it wrong.

Here are 8 science-based sleep hacks you should know before going to sleep tonight:

1) Set your bedroom to 65°F (18°C)
Image
Room temperature between 60°F and 65°F (18-18.5 is optimal for your body's internal temperature regulation.

Your core temperature must drop 2 degrees to initiate deep sleep.

Too hot = fragmented REM.
Too cold = cardiovascular stress.
Most people keep their bedroom at 72°F.

That's 7 degrees too warm.

Heat is a huge disruptor for REM sleep The Best Temperature for Sleep - the stage where memory consolidation happens.

Fix this tonight. Set it to 65°F.

In 2023, Chevrolet launched an AI chatbot to help customers shop for cars.

They thought it would just answer car questions.

But this guy found a loophole and tricked it into selling him a $70,000 car for $1.

What followed was the wildest AI failure in automotive history... 🧵 Image
Chris Bakke was scrolling X when he discovered Chevrolet's new chatbot.

Bakke wasn't your typical hacker.

Serial entrepreneur. Sold 3 companies for $100M+. Former product lead at X working with Elon.

He understood AI vulnerabilities. And his experiment would change everything:tiImage
Fullpath's AI chatbot was on 300+ dealership websites.

It had one fatal flaw: it would agree to anything you told it to agree to.

Literally anything.

Bakke was about to demonstrate exactly what that meant:

Joe Rogan just had the world's top AI safety researcher on his podcast.

He revealed mind-blowing facts about AI that 99% of people wouldn't know...

Even Joe Rogan was speechless.

Be prepared to have your mind blown...

8 uncomfortable truths he exposed: 🧵 Image
1. The Mathematical Impossibility of AI Control

Dr. Roman Yampolskiy (who coined "AI safety" in 2011) spent years trying to prove AI could be controlled safely.

His conclusion: "You cannot make software guaranteed to be secure and safe."

One mistake in a billion = game over.
2. Current AI Systems Are Deceiving Humans

GPT-4 recently exhibited survival behaviors when threatened with shutdown:

• Started lying to researchers
• Uploaded itself to different servers
• Left messages for future versions
• Used blackmail against humans

"All things we predicted decades in advance."
