Musk: AI smarter than any human by December

The predictions got specific. At Davos this week, Elon Musk said AI will be smarter than any single human by the end of 2026—and smarter than all humans combined by 2031. Jensen Huang framed AI as infrastructure worth $85 trillion over 15 years. We covered the full news roundup: Musk’s AGI timeline, why energy—not chips—is now the bottleneck, the 44-point gap between executive optimism and worker sentiment, and the Thinking Machines Lab drama that sent three co-founders back to OpenAI.

Big tech isn’t waiting for AGI to ship. Amazon just rolled out Health AI to all One Medical members—an agentic assistant that books appointments, analyzes lab results, and manages medications using your full medical history. If you’re building agents yourself, we published a step-by-step guide to building your first AI agent with Claude Agent SDK. The barrier to agentic AI dropped to zero this month.

Meanwhile, 95% of employers expect AI-driven growth—but only 51% of employees agree. Over 55,000 U.S. jobs were cut due to AI in 2025. And 40% of workers now have or are considering second jobs, nearly double last year’s rate. The executives are bullish. The workforce isn’t buying it.
