The palette is universal. The vision is rare.

What are the biggest problems humanity faces right now? Synthetic evolution of intelligence outrunning natural evolution of biology? Humans feeling a sense of survival being guaranteed, which is allowing purpose to disappear? The erosion of a shared reality which is leading to the lack of critical thinking? Or the decay of individual competence?

Progress is moving faster than wisdom. I think I can confidently say we are beyond the point of return. I think most technological futurists would agree that with the current data out there, humans are past the point of return. Sometimes you see people wanting to leave, to leave all cities and suburbs to live out in a rural environment where they can experience the world with more peace, space. No clutter. It’s almost becoming a trend, no phone, more space.

Realistically, at their core, humans can do anything they want. There is no barrier to information so with that humans can throw themselves into any project and just start building.

I attached a link to AI 2027. https://ai-2027.com/

This is the thesis that I am most aligned with and what I believe has a high probability of being the outcome. Basically it predicts by April of 2026 is when we will start to see "reliable" agents. Where agents can execute and complete tasks better than humans and at the same or higher success rate.

As of today, there is a research agent making brand‑new discoveries daily. It can keep working on one scientific question for up to 12 hours, it sifts through about 1,500 research papers per run, analyzes over 42,000 lines of data. It continuously reads, codes, and thinks until it believes it has found something meaningful.

Its name is Kosmos and it was built by Microsoft. It operates as two top‑of‑the‑line PhD students that consistently share information back and forth, don't sleep, can review thousands of research papers in minutes, analyzes data to figure out the answer to the question. Products like this will save humanity, increase our understanding of biology 10x.

Why does this matter? Because we are escalating to the point of intelligence and it will be here in 5 months to where we have "reliable agents". Agents that will be able to complete human tasks at a much higher level than humans. The same tasks for research would normally take a human around 6 months for what a coding agent does in 12 hours.

Tools need masters. The four most important engines for humanity have always been the same.

• Absorption - The ability to rapidly learn and retain information and wisdom 

• Vision - Leveraging what you have learned to be able to connect and curate new ideas

• Connection - The skill of building authentic relationships so you can build a network for your vision

• Execution - The discipline to transform concepts into concrete results through focused efforts. Shipping work.

Before we enter April of 2026 where we are projected to get access to reliable agents that execute home tasks we must complete 1, 2, and 3. We must continue to expand our mind, read new concepts, increase the depth of the material we read. From there we must build out a list of projects. A list of visions that we want to pursue because in that we have to then rebuild our network around the premise. Those are the three building blocks to any great feat. All that is changing now is the execution layer.

The way we pursue execution has completely shifted. Before you might have needed a team of 5-10 to get started. Now it is just get started and go. There are unlimited tools for any visionary to deploy.

I think there are going to be so many resources and agents out there so that anyone can build an app by 2026 in May.

Right now anyone can build an app if they really really wanted to but it is still an uphill battle of understanding. A trend that we are at the forefront of is every big creator having an app. We already saw it launched a couple weeks ago with Whop. They are allowing people to build apps on top of the Whop platform. Whop is a creator based platform to sell digital products. I see this trend to continue and hit commercial mainstream mobile applications. People will use a "to do" list application by their favorite creator over apple notes because they want to support their creator.

Curation is the new cognition. Curation is knowing what to reject. Not what to accept. Curation used to be the ability to aimlessly create but that has shifted. Can you get to version 10-15 or do you accept version 1 AI spins up? Can you reject all the distractions to pursue the premier version of what you are building. All of this AI slop is coming out in content and reels. As of right now it seems as if the biggest differentiating factor for projects being built is actually taste and creativity yet in this world people are lacking creativity the most because AI is building. Analysis paralysis will kill a lot of people's curation and creation because they will accept what is placed in front of them. Pattern recognition, cultural awareness, analysis paralysis.

It is only those who are in constant revolt against their ideas that discover what is true, not the man or woman who conforms, who follows some tradition.

The gap won't be technical. It's psychological. It's the willingness to generate version 15 when everyone else stops at version 2. It's the discipline to absorb deeply while others skim. It's the courage to curate ruthlessly when infinite options paralyze decision-making. We're entering a period where the bottleneck shifts from "can I build this?" to "should I build this?" and more importantly, "do I have the taste to make this exceptional?" AI can generate. It cannot discriminate. It cannot feel the difference between good and transcendent. That remains human territory.

The Workflow:

1. Generate 10 versions of your idea using AI

2. Eliminate 8 immediately (pattern recognition)

3. Compare the final 2 to the best in class (taste benchmark)

4. Identify the 20% that matters most

5. Ship the minimal version that captures that 20%

Start now. Not because you'll be left behind, though you will be, but because the compounding advantage of early movement in paradigm shifts is exponential. The person who begins building their network and clarifying their vision today has six months of momentum when the execution layer multiplies their output by 10x. The future doesn't wait for readiness. It rewards those who move while uncertain.

What we're witnessing isn't just technological acceleration. It's the externalization of human capability. The answers lie in the foundations. Absorption. Vision. Connection. Everything else is just implementation detail. And implementation, for the first time in human history, is becoming the easy part.

The work becomes: Build the mental bandwidth to absorb deeply. Build the clarity to articulate a real vision. Build the network aligned with that vision. Build the discipline to iterate without ego.

Do these now, not later. Because when reliable agents arrive, the world will split in two: Those who have a foundation and scale it.And those who have no foundation and get scaled by everything around them. Choose which side you want to be on.

Then start moving.
