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 Altmanā€™s Worldcoin for Iris-Scanning Payments
Brazil says no to Worldcoin's crypto-for-biometric-data trade. The countryā€™s watchdog claims iris-scan payments mess with the whole ā€œfreely given consentā€ thing.

AI's Dirty Laundry
Big AI data, Bigger Emissions

Generative AI is crushing climate goals, and no oneā€™s 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 reportedā€”and thatā€™s 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.

Itā€™s fine though, who needs breathable air when weā€™ve got AI cats eating pizza.

Innovation or Destruction?
DeepSeek-R1 Came In Like A Wrecking Ball

DeepSeek-R1ā€™s release has the AI world buzzing and itā€™s 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.

Of course thereā€™s a lot of joking around the release, but itā€™s 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.
