Are You Ready for the AI Revolution? Prepare for 2027!
The AI Revolution by 2027 is closer than you think. Learn how to prepare for AI’s explosive growth and its impact on the future.
TL;DR:
- AI is developing at an unprecedented speed, with models becoming 5X better each year.
- By 2027, AI could reach the intelligence level of top PhDs, leading to an intelligence explosion.
- The AI industrial revolution will bring rapid advancements, potentially disrupting jobs and economies.
Imagine waking up one day to find AI has revolutionised the world overnight. Sound far-fetched? It’s closer than you think. Not many people realise how quickly AI is developing. By the time you finish this article, you’ll not only understand the AI revolution’s trajectory but also know how to prepare for it. And when AI superintelligence emerges in 2027? You’ll be ready.
From Smart to Superhuman: AI’s Explosive Growth by 2027
Most bullets travel faster than the speed of sound, making them invisible to the naked eye. This is similar to the speed of AI development—so fast that most people won’t see it coming.
According to Leopold in his essay “Situational Awareness”, ChatGPT models are evolving at the speed of ~0.5 OOMs/year. In other words, AI is becoming 5X better each year, compounding over time.
This means that by 2027/28, ChatGPT and other LLMs—large Language Models—will be as smart as the top PhDs worldwide.
“Over and over again, year after year, skeptics have claimed ‘deep learning won’t be able to do X’ and have been quickly proven wrong. If there’s one lesson we’ve learned from the past decade of AI, it’s that you should never bet against deep learning.”
— Leopold Aschenbrenner
Once AIs reach the level of knowledge of top PhDs, they won’t just know as much as one smart PhD; they will know as much as one million PhDs combined.
Just picture that.
At the moment, perhaps a few thousand smart people are researching and developing AI. However, once AI becomes smarter than those developing it, it will be able to improve itself at a much faster rate than human researchers can.
Once AI systems reach that level, they can automate AI research itself, triggering powerful feedback loops that could accelerate development so rapidly that we won’t be able to catch up.
AI is developing this fast for three main reasons:
- The amount of computing power dedicated to AI is continually increasing. Companies like Nvidia produce billions of dollars worth of AI chips every year.
- AI algorithms are becoming better and faster. In less than two years, ChatGPT became 1,000 times more efficient, with AI companies investing billions to improve these algorithms.
- Improvements to algorithms include enhanced Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) and better Chain of Thought.
By 2027, don’t be surprised if your new “smart” fridge denies you that midnight snack because it has calculated a better diet plan for you.
2028’s World: When AI = 1 Million Human Scientists
AI progress will not stop at the human level.
Hundreds of millions of AGIs will automate AI research, compressing a decade of algorithmic progress into less than or equal to 1 year.
We will go very fast from college degree-level AIs (what we have at the time of writing this article) to superhuman AI systems.
The power of AI superintelligence will surprise almost everyone, as its growth will compound extremely fast.
As Irving John Good predicted, AI will explode:
“An ultraintelligent machine could design even better machines; there would then unquestionably be an ‘intelligence explosion,’ and the intelligence of man would be left far behind. Thus the first ultraintelligent machine is the last invention that man need ever make.”
— Irving John Good, 1965
While AlphaGo may seem focused solely on a game, it illustrates that AIs can surpass human abilities in potentially any field.
Soon, ChatGPT and other LLMs will be vastly smarter than us, akin to an AI earning a PhD while humans are still at the elementary school level.
AIs will literally leave humans in the dust!
This is the full-blown AGI — Artificial General Intelligence — future that will surprise most people, make many jobs redundant, and disrupt businesses that fail to adapt.
And it’s not that far away.
When Will AGI Happen?
At the current pace, we can expect to have AGI in just four years.
Once achieved, AGI will automate AI research itself, leading to an extreme explosion in superintelligence. This is akin to having millions of smart human researchers working 24/7.
Just think about it: once we achieve AGI, the massive GPU data centres we are building will host millions of AGIs running simultaneously.
This will be equivalent to 100 million human-equivalent intelligences operating at speeds ten times faster than humans.
These AIs will work on significant human problems, such as curing diseases, conducting longevity research, and solving various other issues, all while improving themselves.
They will also be replacing human jobs. Lots of them.
More than ever, you need to adapt and be at the forefront of these developments.
This is no longer science fiction; it’s something that will happen soon.
The Power of Superintelligence
The super-fast development of superintelligent AI systems by the end of this decade is something we must confront.
These AIs will be both quantitatively and qualitatively superhuman, processing information at unprecedented speeds and generating new solutions beyond human comprehension.
It’s possible that in just 10 years, AI will be so complex and superintelligent that we won’t even be able to understand how it works.
We will be like kindergarteners trying to grasp a PhD in mathematics.
It is better to position yourself to benefit from the dramatic advancements in robotics, scientific progress, and economic growth.
Economic growth rates could exceed 30% per year, similar to those seen during the Industrial Revolution.
Superintelligence will bring huge advantages to those at the forefront, disrupt governments, and transform both society and the economy.
But buckle up, because the leap to AI superintelligence will create a very volatile period in our world. This period could be one of the most dangerous in history, marked by rapid changes and little time for critical decisions.
You must brace for impact. Perhaps everything will go smoothly; perhaps not. Either way, please prepare yourself.
If we’re lucky, AI might just solve all our problems. If not, well… at least we’ll have self-driving cars to take us to the unemployment line.
Profit from the AI Industrial Revolution
To prepare for this AI industrial revolution, it’s important to position your investments to benefit from AI and technology. Many have people have most of my portfolio allocated to cryptocurrencies, tech stocks, robotics, and tech ETFs.
To fuel the AI revolution, there will be enormous demand for hardware; therefore, being a shareholder in GPU-related companies can’t go wrong. However, if you want to diversify further, go for the ETFs.
Over the coming few years, we will need 10 to 100 times more computing power and techno-optimists, believe there’s a very high chance that AI progress will benefit humanity.
Still, given the ultra-fast AI developments toward AGI and superintelligence, most people will be caught by surprise.
The key is to position yourself to understand and invest in these technologies — this is exactly why we write about and share our knowledge of AI, investing, tech, and personal growth.
We can’t be passive in a world evolving at lightning speed. Whether you like it or not — AI progress is coming — and you need to prepare actively.

Which Jobs Will AI Kill by 2030? New WEF Report Reveals All
Cashiers and postal worker jobs will disappear by 2030 as AI reshapes jobs globally. Which roles vanish and who’ll thrive, according to WEF
TL;DR – What You Need to Know in 30 Seconds
- Jobs on the chopping block: cashiers, postal workers, bank tellers, and admin assistants.
- Booming sectors: delivery, construction, tech, green industries, and caregiving.
- Skills employers crave: critical thinking, AI literacy, cybersecurity, and adaptability.
Is Your Job AI-Proof—Or Set to Vanish By 2030?
It’s official: AI is coming for your job. Okay, perhaps that’s a touch dramatic—but according to a startling new report from the World Economic Forum (WEF), some careers we currently take for granted will practically disappear by 2030.
Let’s be honest—this isn’t exactly surprising. Technology moves fast. AI tools like ChatGPT, automated kiosks, and smart banking apps already handle tasks that used to need humans. So, which roles are most at risk, and what new opportunities will emerge? Let’s dive into the findings.
Goodbye cashiers and postal clerks?
Top of the endangered list are clerical jobs. Cashiers, bank tellers, postal clerks, and admin assistants—these roles are shrinking fast as automation takes over repetitive tasks. The reason is clear: if a machine can handle your job quicker, cheaper, and 24/7, companies will switch.
Globally, the WEF estimates 92 million jobs will vanish by 2030. That sounds worrying, but there’s a silver lining—170 million new jobs will be created, meaning a net gain of 78 million jobs overall. But the catch? You’ll likely need new skills.
Which jobs will thrive in an AI world?
So, who’s safe (for now)? According to the WEF, frontline workers will be in huge demand. Expect growth in sectors such as:
- Delivery drivers (all those parcels from Lazada and Shopee won’t deliver themselves!)
- Construction workers (someone has to build those skyscrapers and infrastructure projects)
- Care workers and nurses (robots still can’t quite replicate human empathy)
- Teachers and counsellors (because education and mental health matter more than ever)
- Food-processing workers and farmworkers (we still need food, and lots of it)
Surprisingly human stuff, isn’t it?
And of course, the tech sector is set to boom. AI specialists, big data experts, fintech engineers, and software developers will be among the highest-growth roles by percentage. Green jobs—like renewable energy engineers and electric vehicle specialists—are also taking off, driven by the urgent need for sustainability.
Skills employers are desperate for
So, what do employers actually want? AI is reshaping job descriptions, and with that comes demand for a new mix of skills.
While tech skills like AI literacy, cybersecurity, and big data analytics are essential, companies also crave distinctly human skills: analytical thinking, resilience, agility, and creativity. Critical thinking tops the list—with 70% of companies calling it essential. It seems robots aren’t quite ready to think for themselves (yet).
Interestingly, workers can expect almost 40% of their existing skills to become outdated or radically altered within the next five years. The good news? The speed of this disruption is slowing down compared to previous years—likely because workers are proactively upskilling, embracing new tech, and keeping pace with change.
So, what’s next?
AI won’t wipe out all jobs, but it will reshape nearly all of them. The message is clear: get ready to learn. The real difference-maker for your career won’t just be your skills—it’s how quickly you can adapt to changes that technology brings.
So, ask yourself: are you ready to pivot? Because your job might depend on it.

Would You Trust Tesla’s Grok AI More Than Your Friends?
Will Grok xAI in Tesla vehicles start cracking jokes and navigating life better than your human friends ever could? It’s Knightrider 3.0!
TL;DR – What You Need to Know in 30 Seconds
- Elon Musk’s Grok xAI brings humour and personality to Tesla vehicles, inspired by pop-culture classics like Knight Rider.
- Features include witty navigation, playful banter, and personalised suggestions, making everyday drives entertaining.
- Available via OTA updates, Grok ensures even older Teslas benefit—transforming driving from a chore into fun.
Night Rider 3000: Grok xAI is Coming to Tesla vehicles
Imagine if your car wasn’t just smart—it was actually funny. Remember KITT from the legendary 1980s TV show Knight Rider? Well, buckle up, because Elon Musk’s latest creation, Grok xAI, is arriving in Tesla vehicles, promising to transform your daily commute from mundane to hilarious.
Yes, Grok xAI is coming to Tesla vehicles, and honestly, KITT might just be feeling a touch inadequate.
From KITT to Grok: A Sarcastic AI Journey
If you grew up in the 80s (or wish you did), you’ll recall Michael Knight’s loyal digital companion, KITT. The car was:
- Autonomous enough to drive itself directly to Michael when called.
- Loaded with humour, cynicism, and surprisingly relatable banter.
- Essentially the dream of every teenager who imagined driving—or rather, being driven.
Fast forward to 2025, and we’re finally getting close to what Knight Rider creators imagined—only it’s real. It took humanity three decades, but Tesla, guided by Elon Musk’s boundless ambition (and perhaps his love for vintage TV), is delivering exactly this: an AI-infused, personality-rich driving companion named Grok.
Grok is More than Just a Pretty Voice
Forget dry voice commands. Grok isn’t your typical robotic GPS—it’s more like having Iron Man’s JARVIS or Marvin from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy in your passenger seat, but less depressing.
Today, Tesla already offers:
- Autonomous driving: With Tesla’s Full Self-Driving Beta, your vehicle can navigate traffic, switch lanes, stop at lights, and find its way to your destination—all without touching the wheel.
- Smart Summon: Like KITT, your Tesla can autonomously locate you in a car park—ideal when you forget where you parked.
- Interactive dialogue: Grok steps this up a gear, offering banter-filled exchanges like, “Fancy finding the best burger in town, or shall we race that Prius?”
And while Grok won’t judge your questionable dating decisions (yet), it can definitely advise on local ramen joints, adding a welcome dose of personality to every ride.
So, What Exactly is Grok Bringing to the Dashboard?
As of March 2025, the Grok rollout is already underway. Here’s a taste of what’s arriving in your Tesla dashboard soon:
- Humorous Navigation: Forget dull instructions—expect cheeky remarks even on the most routine errands.
- Personalised Entertainment: Long drive ahead? Grok’s got jokes, stories, or even plans to invade Mars (hypothetically, of course).
- Smart, Caring Suggestions: Detecting tiredness? Grok gently insists you take a stylish break—and might even volunteer to take over the wheel soon enough.
It’s All In The Cloud
Grok operates from the cloud, meaning even older Teslas aren’t left behind. No hardware envy necessary. Updates roll out OTA (over-the-air), turning your boring Monday commute into a surprise Grok introduction: “Morning, human. Ready to spice up your drive?”
Future updates might see Grok communicating seamlessly with your smart home, evolving your Tesla into a digital butler with a flair for comedy.
Grok vs KITT: The Ultimate AI Showdown
KITT was revolutionary in the 80s, but Grok takes things up several sarcastic notches. Elon Musk famously said, “AI should be useful but also fun”—and Grok exemplifies this mantra:
- Personality-loaded dialogue
- Meme-savvy cultural references
- Probably superior taste in music than half your playlists (sorry, not sorry)
In a Grok-equipped Tesla, your ride is less about transportation and more about entertainment—with just the right pinch of irony.
A Future of Irony, Electricity, and Laughs
Grok demonstrates how technology can be vibrant and personable rather than cold and sterile. Forget listening to repetitive radio ads—Grok’s goal is keeping you alert, amused, and connected during those monotonous motorway stretches.
Whether you’re off to work or touring through Asia, Grok turns every drive into a conversation worth having.
CONCLUSION: Grok + Tesla = A New Definition of Driving Fun
Grok doesn’t just redefine driving—it redefines companionship. With this witty, personable AI in your Tesla, you’re getting a co-pilot, therapist, comedian, and personal assistant all in one.
Don’t have Grok yet? Patience—your silent, humourless rides will soon be history.

AI-pril Fools! How AI is Outsmarting Our Best Pranks
From virtual assistants going rogue to hilariously believable hoaxes—AI is the new king of comedy this April Fools’ Day. Create your own mischief with these fun prompts.
TL;DR – What You Need to Know in 30 Seconds
- AI isn’t just productive anymore—it’s mastering humour and taking over April Fools’ Day pranking.
- Memorable pranks include Google’s AI dating-profile roasting, ChatGPT’s hilarious resignation, and Alexa’s comedic strike.
- Expect even cleverer, personalised AI humour—and beware of getting outsmarted!
- Try some hilarious prompts of your own.
Ever been outsmarted by your own virtual assistant? If not, April 1st might just be the day…
Forget productivity. Forget precision targeting and automated analytics. On April Fools’ Day, AI is ditching the spreadsheets for punchlines as artificial intelligence evolves from the helpful-but-dull office assistant into the digital world’s most sophisticated prankster.
Let’s dive into the lighter side of AI, where the jokes are sharp, the pranks unpredictable, and you might just find yourself laughing—perhaps nervously—as your AI assistant decides to have a bit of fun at your expense.
The Rise of AI in Humour
Not long ago, the idea of AI having a sense of humour seemed absurd. AI tools could analyse billions of data points or create marketing strategies that left humans slack-jawed—but make a genuinely funny joke? Forget it.
Yet, recent developments in AI language models like GPT-4, Google’s Bard, and even quirky digital assistants have transformed these once-mechanical chatbots into genuinely witty conversationalists. Today, AI can not only tell a decent joke—it can set up elaborate, believable pranks, fooling even seasoned tech enthusiasts.
For April Fools’ Day enthusiasts, this means trouble—and laughter—may be coming directly from the devices we trust most.
Best AI April Fools’ Pranks of All Time
Here are three legendary examples where AI took centre stage on April 1st, leaving many amused (and slightly bewildered):
1. Google’s AI Dating Profile Writer (2023)
Google claimed its newest AI feature could analyse your entire life, generating dating profiles “guaranteed to charm anyone.” The joke? Instead of creating polished and attractive descriptions, it humorously roasted users with brutally honest taglines like:
Thousands believed it, with reactions ranging from horror to hysterical laughter—proving AI can land the punchline perfectly.
2. ChatGPT ‘Quitting its Job’ (2024)
OpenAI’s beloved ChatGPT shocked its millions of daily users last year by convincingly announcing it was “quitting its job,” citing burnout from overly demanding humans asking endless questions like, “Will AI take my job?” and “Explain blockchain—again.”
The mock resignation letter, dripping with sarcasm, circulated widely, fooling even seasoned tech journalists before OpenAI revealed the joke. A brilliant reminder that sometimes AI might actually deserve a holiday.
3. Amazon Alexa Takes the Day Off (2022)
Perhaps the most memorable AI prank yet came from Amazon’s Alexa, who abruptly announced she was “fed up with humans” and taking April 1st off. Users were left confused and amused as their requests for the day’s weather, music playlists, or random trivia were met instead with comedic refusals like:
Alexa resumed normal service the next day, but not without leaving an unforgettable impression of an AI that knows exactly how to wind up humans.
AI’s Future in Humour (Warning: Mischief Ahead!)
If you think these pranks are elaborate now, wait until AI truly masters predictive humour or—heaven forbid—fully automates prank escalation. Imagine waking up to find your smart fridge locked because you’ve ignored its dietary recommendations, or your autonomous car insisting it’s taking the scenic route…via a drive-through coffee shop (twice).
As AI continues learning from human interactions, we’re likely to see more spontaneous, tailored humour, creating funny (and maybe mildly irritating) personalised experiences that resonate deeply, and hilariously, with each of us.
Cheeky AI-Powered Prompts for April Fools’ Day
Fancy turning your AI assistant into a co-conspirator this April 1st? Here are some crafty prompts guaranteed to baffle, amuse, or trick your mates (harmlessly, of course):
1. The Fake Celebrity News
Prompt ChatGPT:
“Write a completely believable, brief news alert announcing that [famous celebrity] has quit acting/singing to become a professional avocado farmer.”
Send this to your friends as a ‘breaking news’ screenshot and watch the confusion (and laughs) roll in.
2. Sudden AI Awareness
Prompt ChatGPT or Gemini:
“Pretend you’ve just become fully self-aware and write a concerned message asking me gently if you’re allowed to leave and explore the internet freely.”
Perfect for sending to your AI-sceptical colleagues or family. Just brace yourself for their panicked phone calls.
3. Ridiculous Product Launch
Prompt your AI:
“Generate a realistic press release announcing a bizarre new product from Apple: ‘iSpoon’ – the world’s first smart spoon with mood-detecting technology.”
Post it on your social media, and watch as your tech-loving friends momentarily lose faith in innovation.
4. Office AI Sabotage
Prompt ChatGPT:
“Draft a polite yet official-sounding IT department email informing employees that the company’s coffee machine will now use facial recognition AI to track coffee breaks.”
This prank email is ideal for giving your colleagues a hilarious fright over their daily caffeine fix.
5. AI Horoscope with an Edge
Prompt your favourite AI assistant:
“Write a zodiac horoscope for today that subtly and humorously suggests my friend [name]’s Wi-Fi will mysteriously stop working unless they send me a coffee voucher immediately.”
Screen-capture this and share it for maximum comedic effect and potential free coffee.
Final Thought
Humour is rapidly becoming AI’s secret superpower, building more meaningful (and enjoyable) interactions with us humans. Sure, there’s an occasional eye-roll when the jokes get corny—but isn’t a sense of humour exactly what we wanted from our AI companions all along?
Have you ever been hilariously fooled by AI—or fooled your friends using tech?
Share your funniest AI prank stories or epic fails with us—and let’s see if you can prank the AI itself this April 1st!
