AIās Goldilocks Moment: Not Too Scary, Not Too Borg
David Sacks, White House special adviser better known for tech tweets than tranquilizing mass panics, declared the 'Doomer narratives were wrong' on AI. Apparently, weāre not living in AI Skynet-ville just yet. Sacks calls the scene 'Goldilocks'āfive American giants are duking it out, no single AI overlord in sight, and open source is the snack bar of choice for bargain hunters. He cautions, though: AI still can't walk the dog alone, needing humans to keep it on track. To quote him, 'Models need context, they must be heavily prompted... and this process must be repeated.' So relax; the AI takeover is more 'awkward adolescent' than 'robot apocalypse.'

AI's biggest threat isnāt Terminator or Skynetāitās that five companies canāt decide who gets the remote control. Spoiler: humans are still needed to hit the buttons because AI canāt pick its own show.
Turns out, the AI apocalypse will be delayed by something much scarier: capitalism. Five companies neck-and-neck like clueless sprinters trying not to win and take all the power.
Welcome to AI's Goldilocks zone: not too powerful, not too weak, just right to keep humans babysitting like exhausted parents at a tech-themed sleepover.
