We deconstruct the monumental milestone of Google DeepMind’s AlphaProof Nexus solving nine open Erdős math problems, marking a shift to original, machine-speed discovery. We explore the failure of US hardware blockades as Chinese lab DeepSeek slashes prices by 75% using homegrown Huawei chips. We dive into the severe corporate morale crisis, with new data showing 63% of workers are actively lying about their AI skills due to automation anxiety. We also cover Anthropic's Claude Mythos finding 10,000+ critical bugs, Pope Leo XIV's 42,000-word AI encyclical, and Waymo robotaxis getting defeated by puddles.

The Geopolitical Blockade Backfires: Chinese lab DeepSeek slashes V4-Pro prices by 75% ($0.435 per million tokens) operating on Huawei’s Ascend supernodes, severely undercutting US frontier models. The Workforce AI Lie: A GCheck study finds 63% of workers (and 80% of Gen Z) exaggerate their AI skills out of job insecurity, creating a "double distortion" where they fake proficiency while actively limiting AI use.
