The investor who nailed the 2008 US housing market meltdown warns the artificial intelligence boom is setting the stage for a wave of bankruptcies and write-downs, warning that a market panic as early as 2026 or 2027 remains a real possibility. In a new post on X, Michael Burry responds to a set of predictions made by Barron’s senior writer Tae Kim, who believes that Nvidia will report “blowout numbers” in the coming quarters with the chipmaker’s NVL72 server architecture. According to Nvidia, the GB200 NVL72 is designed to deliver 30x faster real-time large language model (LLM) inference, supercharges AI…
Wall Street strategist Dan Ives says Apple (AAPL) is finally positioned to enter the AI revolution in a meaningful way, laying out four catalysts he believes could push the stock toward Wedbush’s price target. In a new note, the Wedbush analyst says the firm is very bullish on Apple this year as AI becomes central to its product strategy, services growth and iPhone cycle. Ives says the first major driver is Apple’s expected partnership with Google around Gemini, which he believes will serve as the backbone of the iPhone maker’s consumer AI push. “We believe Google Gemini will be the…
Reid Hoffman says 2026 will mark the transition from AI coding assistants to autonomous agents that work independently while humans step away to do something else. In a new interview with Dan Shipper, the billionaire LinkedIn co-founder says AI agents are moving beyond tools people actively use, toward systems that run in parallel with human work, executing tasks on their own and dramatically expanding effective productivity. Hoffman explains how people will begin experiencing what it feels like to have software working independently, not just assisting in real-time. “2026 will be how we move from this kind of basis of agentic…
Google says artificial intelligence is moving from helping people shop to actively completing purchases on their behalf, as agentic commerce begins operating at a real scale. In a new product update, Google announces the launch of the Universal Commerce Protocol (UCP), an open standard designed to let AI agents handle the full shopping journey, from discovery and checkout to post-purchase support, across retailers and payment providers. The company says the protocol is meant to remove the fragmentation that currently forces each AI agent to integrate separately with every retailer or payments system, replacing it with a shared language that allows…
A former Microsoft software engineer says artificial intelligence is rapidly collapsing the economics of traditional software teams, setting the stage for solo freelance developers to become some of the highest earners in tech. In a new post on X, Ujjwal Chadha says AI is making programming cheaper and faster, allowing individual developers to replace entire agencies by delivering finished products on their own. Chadha explains that companies are no longer paying for headcount or process, but for speed and execution, which fundamentally changes how software gets built. “Freelance developers will be the next wave of top earners. Programming is becoming…
Big Short investor Michael Burry says even trade careers widely viewed as safe from artificial intelligence may be more vulnerable than people expect, as AI tools begin to substitute for basic professional services. In a Google Doc discussion among AI leaders published on Substack, Burry challenges the common belief that plumbing, electrical work and similar hands-on jobs are insulated from automation, noting that AI-assisted DIY is already changing household decision-making. Burry explains his concern by pointing to how quickly AI has lowered the barrier to performing tasks that once required paid expertise, especially for middle-class households facing rising service costs.…
The Black Eyed Peas frontman will.i.am says artificial intelligence will flood the music world with synthetic content, but believes human creativity and live performance will remain distinct and deeply valued. In a new Bloomberg interview, the American rapper and singer says AI music is not an existential threat to the industry, but a parallel category that audiences will learn to recognize and choose between, much like organic versus non-organic food. “You go to the supermarket, do you say, ‘Hey, where’s the organic oranges?’ But then you just buy oranges. So if you’re not buying organic oranges, then what are those…
A top market strategist at the banking giant Morgan Stanley believes that the AI trade is cooling, but the money is not leaving the market. In a new RiskReversal Media interview, Mike Wilson, chief US equity strategist and CIO at Morgan Stanley, believes that the AI trade is in the midst of a correction as investors cash out their gains to look for other areas in the market. “I think it’s going to be, once again, it’s going to be one of these rolling corrections, and the money will find other outlets. And look, for all those stocks you mentioned…
The head of AI Macro Nexus Research at 22V Research is unveiling a step-by-step guide on how chatbot users can supercharge their prompts and get elite-level results from AI. In a new interview with Anthony Pompliano, Jordi Visser says he follows one pattern to get the best results from large language models (LLMs). He notes that he starts with Grok, which leverages the intelligence on X, to get a prompt template for his subject of interest. “Go to Grok and just type in there, ‘Find me a post on X with a template for an efficient prompt.’ It’ll come back…
