The Biggest AI Trends Coming in 2025
Generative AI leads the pack, while AGI remains more gossip than reality (for now). Expect real-time collaboration between robots, smarter healthcare, and AI assistants to become the norm.

Brazil Blocks Altmanās Worldcoin for Iris-Scanning Payments
Brazil says no to Worldcoin's crypto-for-biometric-data trade. The countryās watchdog claims iris-scan payments mess with the whole āfreely given consentā thing.

Younet AI
Design tailored AI models that integrate directives, enhanced knowledge, and a diverse array of skills to suit your needs. By connecting your Gmail/Outlook conversations to your model, you can train it to write the same style as you.
AI's Dirty Laundry
Big AI data, Bigger Emissions

Generative AI is crushing climate goals, and no oneās fessing up.
Heavyweights like Amazon, Google, and Microsoft conveniently leave out specific data about their datacenter emissions. Instead, they lean on questionable renewable energy certificates and vague reports. A Guardian analysis says emissions are likely over 660% higher than reportedāand thatās pre-AI gold rush. In the EU, stricter sustainability reporting could force these tech giants to spill the beans, but in the US, regulations have hit a legal wall.
Itās fine though, who needs breathable air when weāve got AI cats eating pizza.
Innovation or Destruction?
DeepSeek-R1 Came In Like A Wrecking Ball
DeepSeek-R1ās release has the AI world buzzing and itās creating quite the drama online. However, it is rewriting how the future of AI will look.
This open-source gem challenges the status quo by skipping traditional supervised fine-tuning, leaning on the bold power move of reinforcement learning. Yes, we now have industry-leading performance at just 3%-5% of OpenAI's costs. It's a win for developers and enterprises looking to do more with less, and proof that smarter, scrappier approaches can outshine brute-force spending. This all sounds great, but can there are concerns about privacy being that it was created by Chyyyyna.
This is what people are saying online about the disruption.
Personally Iām staying away from Deepseek. I donāt want the Chinese spying on me and seeing what kind of videos Iām watching on TikTok

Deepseek just accelerated AGI timelines by 5 years. So focus on the gym. Knowledge work is obsolete. Muscles are all thatās left

Of course thereās a lot of joking around the release, but itās pretty obvious DeepSeek has just shaken up the entire AI Industry. Tech stocks saw a massive hit, Nvidia taking a 15% plunge, chip companies like Arm and Broadcom tanked as well.
DeepSeek even got Sam Altman shaking in his boots.
deepseek's r1 is an impressive model, particularly around what they're able to deliver for the price.
we will obviously deliver much better models and also it's legit invigorating to have a new competitor! we will pull up some releases.
