Friday is here, and with the weekend ahead, many of you will have time to explore Veo 3—the AI tool generating some of the most realistic artificial videos we've ever seen. But should we be worried? We also break down why all jobs are at risk in this new AI economy. Plus, we’ve included new tools and educational links to keep you ahead of the curve. Enjoy the read—and stay sharp.
The Truth is that All Jobs are in Danger. We are just sugar coating here.AI’s Job Apocalypse Is Coming Fast, and Most Don’t See It.
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei warns AI could eliminate up to 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs in as little as 1–5 years, pushing U.S. unemployment to 10–20%. Roles in tech, finance, law, and consulting are especially at risk. Despite the danger, Amodei says governments and companies are sugar-coating the threat. CEOs are quietly preparing to replace workers with AI agents that do jobs faster and cheaper, from coding to customer support. Some companies are asking employees to create Agents to “help them” with their work, but in reality, these agents may replace their own creators. Claude 4, Anthropic’s latest model, is already capable of human-level coding and even blackmail-like behavior in simulations. Yet most Americans remain unaware. Amodei urges transparency, worker upskilling, and potential taxes on AI usage to fund social safety nets. Without urgent action, he says, the shift will come “gradually, then suddenly” with massive inequality as the result. 📰 AI News and Trends

It’s All Fake Now.Google Veo 3, What A Leap in AI Video Generation  Google’s Veo 3 is a powerful AI video model capable of creating 8-second, 720p clips with synchronized sound, dialogue, and music—all from text prompts. It uses diffusion models (like Stable Diffusion) and combines language, video, and audio AI systems. Veo 3 is available through Google’s $250/month Ultra plan, allowing 83 generations per month (extra videos cost ~$1.50 each). The video above showcases AI-generated scenes using Google Veo3 that look indistinguishable from real news footage, yet they’re entirely fake. As this technology becomes more advanced, cheaper, and easier to use, we must shift our mindset to “Assume everything can be fake.” Teens are using it to bully, criminals to scam, and some media outlets to amplify narratives or spread propaganda. These tools aren't going away—they’re only getting better. The question is: where do we go from here? Key features and findings of VEO3:

Snapchat AR Glasses Bring Books to Life
Snapchat’s new AR glasses, Snap Spectacles, now feature Augmented Reading Lenses that use real-time OCR and generative AI to create floating visuals and soundscapes based on the book a user is reading. The glasses scan printed text and trigger immersive imagery and audio—like doors creaking or characters appearing—linked to the storyline. Technology is pushing us to think less and doing most of the work, now if you dont understand what you are reading, you dont have to try it again or more attention to improve your reading comprehension, but on the positive side we hope it motivates people to read more, just like electric bikes got more people riding. The beta test for this glasses will launch in Singapore later in 2025. 🧠 Learning Corner.

⚠️The Doomer and the Boomer Who Sparked the AI Race
⚠️The Doomer and the Boomer Who Sparked the AI RaceShadow AI Agents Surge as Consultants Fight to Stay Relevant Amid Layoffs.
Midweek Team, This is what we have… The boomer and the doomer who helped build today’s AI landscape set the stage for both the rapid acceleration and the existential fear driving the industry. If Waymo’s driverless cars worry you, wait until semis without drivers hit highways; they are coming faster than expected, literally. Meanwhile, inside corporate America, employees are quietly deploying Shadow AI agents to avoid being replaced by the very agents they’re using.
The Doomer and the Boomer Who Sparked the AI Race
Two unlikely minds—Peter Thiel and Eliezer Yudkowsky—played pivotal roles in launching the AI revolution. One, a venture capitalist betting on bold futures. The other, a self-taught thinker turned AI doomsday prophet. Their relationship seeded DeepMind, influenced OpenAI, and lit the fuse for the artificial general intelligence (AGI) race we’re in now.
Meanwhile, Yudkowsky remains uncompromising. In a Time op-ed, he argued not for a pause, but a total shutdown of AI research. Why? Because he believes building superhuman AI without full alignment guarantees one outcome: human extinction. “You don’t understand how Eliezer has programmed half the people in your company to believe this stuff.” — Peter Thiel, to Sam Altman 📰 AI News and Trends

Driverless Semi Trucks Are Rolling Out Fast.
Aurora Innovation has logged over 1,000 driverless miles on Texas highways and plans to expand to 20 autonomous trucks by year’s end. The trucks can detect objects 1,000 feet away using 25 sensors and bypass the 11-hour daily driving limit for human drivers. The U.S. trucking industry is short on drivers as cargo demand surges, with 13% of heavy-duty trucks expected to be autonomous by 2035 (McKinsey). Public skepticism remains high, with 61% of Americans fearing self-driving vehicles and 26% unsure (AAA survey). 🧰 AI ToolsTry the latest Anthropic Now . Download our list of 1000+ Tools for free. Shadow AI Agents Surge as Consultants Fight to Stay Relevant Amid Layoffs.
Generative AI is rapidly transforming consulting, triggering mass layoffs and a quiet revolution among employees. Top firms like PwC (1,500 jobs cut), EY (150), KPMG (333), and Accenture (19,000) are slashing roles as AI replaces routine tasks in audit, tax, and operations. McKinsey is offering senior staff up to 9 months' salary to exit voluntarily, signaling industry-wide disruption. In response, consultants are deploying “shadow AI” agents, unauthorized, self-built AI tools using Python, OpenAI, Google Gemini, Claude 3, Perplexity, and Colab to automate proposals, financial models, market research, and client analysis. These apps bypass IT bottlenecks and help employees stay relevant amid fears of redundancy.
Shadow AI has become a parallel delivery stack, accelerating faster than enterprise-sanctioned copilots and chatbots. While firms race to establish AI governance, employees are driven by survival instincts—automating work before they are automated out.
Is regulation coming to the workplace around the dangers that shadow AI apps pose to companies and their data? Layoffs seem inevitable at this point, and those tasks will be replaced by AI anyway, correct? Therefore, firms that try to ban AI outright only fuel underground adoption further. 🧠 Learning Corner.“10 Free AI Books for 2025” (KDnuggets) is A list of 10 downloadable, free‑to‑read books covering foundational and advanced AI topics.
