OpenAI boss Sam Altman has mocked Elon Musk’s plan to place artificial intelligence data centres into orbit by 2027.

JP Morgan CEO warns financial crisis ‘worse than 2008′ is coming as he admits ‘my anxiety is high’
It surrounds the growing dominance of AI within the economy

Those within the artificial intelligence industry have repeatedly preached about the benefits that an AI dominated world will bring, pointing towards a utopian image of a jobless society where everyone is sustained with ‘universal high income’ schemes.

What will likely happen in reality is far more frightening though as some experts have asserted in alarming projections, and this could have a significant impact on an economy that’s increasingly reliant on AI.

Certain economists are currently riding the wave of a growing economy, thanks in part to the Trump administration’s tax and deregulatory policies, yet one key individual remains on the side of caution as current trends appear to be making him feel ‘anxious’.

As reported by CNBC, JP Morgan CEO Jamie Dimon has expressed his doubts that the economy is quite as good as some are making out, fearing for an impending crash in the near future that will be larger than anything in recent history.

“My own view is people are getting a little comfortable that this is real, these high asset prices and high volumes, that we won’t have any problems,” Dimon asserted.

“There will be a cycle one day,” he added. “I don’t know what confluence of events will cause that cycle. My anxiety is high over it. I’m not assuaged by the fact that asset prices are high. In fact, I think that adds to the risk.”

Dimon went on to illustrate that “there’s always surprise in a credit cycle,” noting that “the surprise has often been which industry. You didn’t expect utilities and phone companies in ’08, ’09, and this time around, it might be software, because of AI.”

“AI got better and cheaper. Companies laid off workers, then used the savings to buy more AI capability, which let them lay off more workers. Displaced workers spent less. Companies that sell things to consumers sold fewer of them, weakened, and invested more in AI to protect margins.”

They branded it a “feedback loop with no natural brake,” and it’s hard not to see the obvious failings that would occur in an economy solely driven by AI, as the so-called gulf in efficiency loses its value if there’s no way to make money from what you’re selling.

The Backlash Is So Strong That People With “Pervert Glasses” Are Afraid to Use Them in Public

Meta’s camera-equipped “AI Glasses” are so divisive that some adopters are now leaving their expensive smart glasses at home, as Engadget reports.

Influencers, mostly men, have been using the glasses to inconspicuously — and non-consensually — capture footage of themselves approaching women and attempting to hit on them, interactions they’ve then posted online for content. Some wearers have even attempted to extort victims of covert recordings for cash. That’s on top of serious allegations of alleged privacy breaches by Meta itself.

University law school bans laptops from classes amid AI backlash
‘We need to ensure that our students actually learn to think critically,’ university administrators say
https://www.the-independent.com/tech/laptop-ban-university-ai-backlash-b3013911.html?fbclid=IwdGRjcATCAcFjbGNrBMIBr2V4dG4DYWVtAjExAHNydGMGYXBwX2lkDDM1MDY4NTUzMTcyOAABHksNyX4UQiB-RvKzMR1zF5jLb2kL6ikNXgII_D1ZwFd5HZOj_wP40UyfZYFa_aem_SBagsgKqW9tntZD6hdS0bA

A US university has announced a ban on laptops and smartphones for incoming law students in an effort to combat AI usage.

The new policy will prevent first year students at the University of Chicago Law School from accessing any electronic devices during classes, starting from the 2026-2027 academic year.

The ban is part of the law school’s strategy to develop “AI-resilient pedagogy and assessments” in an effort to elevate “essential human skills that distinguish excellent lawyers” in the AI era .

“We need to ensure that our students actually learn to think critically, strategically, and independently without relying on AI,” the law school’s new AI strategy states.

“Technology is changing too fast. Thus, all the changes we are currently making will be subject to review, reconsideration, and revision as we learn more and as both technology and the practice of law evolve.”
