Fear of AI makes people abandon children and relationships

A Business Insider study reveals an interesting picture. People are fundamentally reconsidering life priorities due to potential AI threats.

Imagine the scale of psychological shift. A researcher under the pseudonym Henry estimates the probability of existential threat from AI at 50%. His response? Abandoning romantic relationships and redirecting a third of his income to AI safety research. The man is literally building bio-shelters with filters against potential AI-created pathogens!

Business is already monetizing fears. University of Pennsylvania graduate Ulrik Horn founded startup Fonix, producing inflatable protective capsules for $39,000. Orders are already coming in, deliveries start in 2026. Apocalypse becomes a market niche!

Data analyst Apurva Srinivasan even reconsidered partner selection criteria. Intelligence is no longer a priority when neural networks surpass humans in intellectual tasks. Now charisma, communication skills, appearance matter — what remains uniquely human.

AI consultant Jason Liu left programming after wrist problems. His new philosophy — focus on rest and socialization through pottery, jiu-jitsu, consulting. Intelligence is no longer a competitive advantage in a world where machines think better!

Former OpenAI employee Daniel Kokotajlo and Anthropic researcher Trenton Bricken stopped saving for retirement. The future is too unpredictable. Associate professor David Thorstad, conversely, increased his savings. Entrepreneur James Norris abandoned plans to have children because of this!

Technological progress seems to force a reconsideration of fundamental aspects of existence. Relationships, career, finances, reproduction.

AI chatbots generate content that exacerbates eating disorders
A joint study by Stanford University and the Center for Democracy and Technology showed a disturbing picture. Chatbots with artificial intelligence pose a serious risk to people with eating disorders. Scientists warn that neural networks hand out harmful advice about diets. They suggest ways to hide the disorder and generate "inspiring weight loss content" that worsens the problem.
OpenAGI released the Lux model that overtakes Google and OpenAI
Startup OpenAGI released the Lux model for computer control and claims this is a breakthrough. According to benchmarks, the model overtakes analogues from Google, OpenAI and Anthropic by a whole generation. Moreover, it works faster.
