🛎️ AI Is Eating Itself

Good Morning, AI Enthusiasts!

AI learns from AI, decides with AI, and persuades through AI.

KNOWLEDGE

AI Is Starting To Eat Itself

👀 What’s happening: ChatGPT was found citing Grokipedia, an AI generated encyclopedia built inside the Musk ecosystem. The references appeared quietly on niche topics, not headline issues. This showed that AI written knowledge has begun slipping into other models’ retrieval layers without explicit coordination.

🌍 How this hits reality: Most foundation models have already exhausted high quality public data. Wikipedia adds marginal edits, not volume. Grokipedia style projects can add hundreds of thousands of pages cheaply. Retrieval systems do not distinguish origin well. AI outputs reenter datasets, citations look valid, but the source is recursive and ungrounded.

🛎️ Key takeaway: Once human knowledge plateaus, AI eating AI is structural, not accidental. Without provenance controls or fresh real world inputs, models risk compounding bias and error while appearing more confident and complete.

TOGETHER WITH MUSEMAIL

Create Stunning Emails with AI

You don’t need another “fine” email. You need one that actually looks stunning. MuseMail uses AI to turn rough intent into emails people notice. Sharp copy. Clean structure. Polished HTML. You give it context. It gives you something that looks deliberate, even if you barely tried.

AGENTS

Open Source Jarvis Suddenly Practical

👀 What’s happening: Clawdbot exploded as an open source personal AI assistant that developers describe as a real world Jarvis. It can be deployed on any computer or server, stay online continuously, and accept instructions from any device. The excitement comes from how freely people can debug, fork, and evolve their own always on agents.

🌍 How this hits reality: Clawdbot sits between Claude Cowork and a large model powered Siri, but changes the balance. Cowork is optimized for collaborative work sessions. Siri reasons but rarely acts beyond APIs. Clawdbot executes directly on machines, controls files and apps, and persists across time. Being open source means users tune behaviors, memory, and skills themselves instead of waiting for platform updates.

🛎️ Key takeaway: This feels like an open source Jarvis moment. A personal, hackable agent you actually own. If this spreads, assistants shift from scripted helpers to persistent operators embedded in daily systems and infrastructure.

TEST

Most People Can No Longer Tell Real Video From AI

👀 What’s happening: Runway tested whether people can spot AI video. In a study of 1,043 participants, fewer than 10 percent could reliably tell a real five second clip from one generated by its latest Gen-4.5 model. Overall accuracy was 57 percent, barely above chance. In animals and architecture, AI fooled people more often than reality.

🌍 How this hits reality: This breaks the old assumption that video is self authenticating. If 90 percent of viewers cannot tell real from synthetic, detection tools and human judgment both fail. Newsrooms, courts, and platforms still rely on visual trust. At five seconds per clip and no post processing, this already works at internet speed and scale.

🛎️ Key takeaway: Video has crossed the credibility threshold. Trust will shift from what you see to how it is verified. Expect faster moves toward provenance standards like C2PA and rising risk where verification lags behind generation speed.
