Whether we like it or not, AI is radically transforming virtually every aspect of our society.  We have already reached a point where AI can do most things better than humans can, and AI technology continues to advance at an exponential rate.  The frightening thing is that it is advancing so fast that we may soon lose control over it.  The latest model that OpenAI just released was instrumental in creating itself, and it is light-years ahead of the AI models that were being released just a couple of years ago.

In February 2026, a familiar geopolitical drama unfolded once more. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu hastily flew to Washington, D.C., moving up a scheduled meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump by a week [1].
