Capabilities AI Has Unlocked in the Last Decade

Let's zoom out and think of everything AI has unlocked in the last 10 years. — We can now generate and edit Hollywood-grade video [Seedance 2], speech [ElevenLabs], music [Suno] and image [Nanobanana, Midjourney] — We have access to infinite senior software engineering code [5.3 Codex + 4.6 Opus] that is used to create these models too — We can simulate entirely new interactive worlds [Genie] and use those worlds to teach robots — We can do entire work tasks in English [Cowork] — We can solve competition level math and coding problems [many] and even unsolved math problems [AlphaEvolve] — We can write entire articles that persuade even elite industry veterans [ChatGPT] — We can ask deep questions or chat with a therapist [ChatGPT] — We solved the most complex games known to man: Poker, Go, Chess — We solved protein prediction [AlphaFold] If after this, someone says "but 95% of AI pilots fail", it's because they're using the wrong a bad product, an old product, or just haters. The pace of AI is far outpacing the pace at which our institutions are able to keep up, and society 10 years from now is going to look extremely different from today.
