Sam Altman just dropped another one of his futuristic blog essays — this one’s called “The Gentle Singularity.”

And if you’ve read Sam before, you already know the vibe: a little techno-optimism, a little softcore AGI prophecy, and always a few subtle winks about what OpenAI is building next.

But this one? 👀

This one feels like a teaser trailer for OpenAI’s next mission — which, according to him, is building AI that can actually think new thoughts.

Yep. Altman claims that by 2026, we’ll “likely see the arrival of AI systems that can figure out novel insights.”

Not just rephrasing what’s already online. Not remixing Wikipedia with extra sauce. But literally thinking up new, helpful, creative ideas — the kind of stuff that could shake up science, research, and maybe even reality as we know it.

And hey, OpenAI’s not the only one chasing this bold idea. There’s a whole “AI, but make it genius” movement bubbling up:

So yeah… it’s basically a nerdy AI Hunger Games, and everyone’s chasing the same golden goose.

But Can AI Actually Pull It Off?

Well, here’s where things get messy — and interesting.

In fact, some top AI thinkers aren’t fully sold on the idea just yet:

Still, Stanley’s not just throwing shade — he’s building the fix. His new company, Lila Sciences, raised $200M to solve this exact challenge.

But Here’s The Real Takeaway:

Altman’s essays are never just essays. They’re usually soft-launches of whatever OpenAI is already quietly building.

Remember when he called 2025 the “year of agents”? Not long after, OpenAI launched Operator, Deep Research, and Codex.

So this essay? Probably less “here’s a thought” and more “here’s what’s already happening behind the scenes.”

Meta just rolled out some shiny new AI-powered video editing tools that sound like the future... but kinda look like a beta test in disguise.

Here’s the lowdown:

You can now transform your videos using 50+ preset prompts.

We’re talking background swaps, outfit changes, full-blown anime makeovers, and vibes like “video game mode” or “desert scene.”

Basically, it's like choosing an Instagram filter — but on AI steroids.

But there’s a catch: it only works on the first 10 seconds of your video. So unless you’re a master of short-form storytelling, that’s... a bit limiting.

Also worth noting: It’s available now (for free—but only for a “limited time”) via the Meta AI app, the Meta.AI website, and the Edits app, across the U.S. and in over a dozen other countries.

Now here’s where it gets a little... interesting.

When folks actually put it to the test, things got weird real fast:

Still, you can share your AI-remixed masterpieces directly to Facebook, Instagram, or drop them into the Discover feed inside the Meta AI app.

Right now, there’s no support for custom prompts—you’re stuck with the presets. But Meta says text-prompt video editing is coming later this year.

🤞fingers crossed that update comes with fewer radioactive pets.
