$400 million Tesla Megapack paired with over $30 billion worth of GPUs 😆

xAI just bought another site that will take total training compute to nearly 2GW

Most powerful in the world.

Next stage is 100TW a year in space 😆

01/01/2026

xAI now has over 450,000 GPUs active across all its sites, with construction in progress to bring that number to 900,000 GPUs by Q2 2026 🤯

7 months ago they said the biggest coherent cluster was 30,000 GPUs 😆

Starting mid January, the AskBeevs Sunday night AI sessions continue with a fresh focus: building the future in 2026.

The 4 foundation lessons were completed in 2025 and the record of them is on my website down the bottom. They covered:

1) Why I should care
2) Prompt engineering
3) Agent building
4) Agentic coding

If you want a crash course on AI, it's a pretty compressed way of cutting into it fast.

But no more academic style lessons.

From here on in, we learn by building.

2026 is about ideas. Fresh problems. New solutions.

We look at challenges and crush them with AI.

Any topic. Any technology. Any problem worth solving.

The cool thing? We learn together through iteration. We walk through it with explanation in real time.

Got an idea for what we should build in 2026? I want to hear it.

Real commercial problems. Personal projects. Wild experiments. Whatever you think deserves the AI treatment.

If you want to come, let me know.

There's about 80 on the list already.

No tariff. Ever.

All sessions on AskBeevs.

Let's make 2026 the year we actually build something.

Elon just bought a building the size of 14 football fields and named it MACROHARDRR, because apparently “Macrohard” and “Macroharder” weren’t wild enough ---

In Mississippi and it'll be 2GW

He's building his own power stations with it 😂

More compute than all other AI companies combined apparently - lol

Dunno if it's still available but I thought this was sharp. grok for 31.05 AUD per month via x. You might have a few hours left to nab it.

I hear Google Gemini Pro is on offer too for 168 a year.

Good time to go shopping for paid models.

I like paying for AI by the Year.

Reminds you less that your spending money.

You can relax knowing you've spent it

And you usually get a discount

Everyone does it except ChatGPT

That one you can comfortably dump unless you like writing poetry or talking about your feelings

Is the Era of the "Middle Manager" over?

Most Orgs look like a Pyramid

- Junior Employees
- Middle Managers
- Executives

There's been heaps of talk that AI is getting rid of the Junior Employees with their work being replaced by AI

But who is more likely to do that work? The other Junior Employees are just as well equipped (in a lot of ways) as the Middle Managers.

So while the Middle Managers manage less employees coming in -

The Junior Employees are Mastering the Job far far faster than traditionally possible

Once they 10x their skills they start eating the middle managers.

So they take the middle managers jobs

Then once all the middle managers are gone what is the Pyramid for the Execs to Manage

Most execs manage Risk. But the risk is often associated with these big pyramids of employees.

If the Pyramids collapse the type of risk changes a lot. So they're vulnerable too in the medium term.

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella is already leading the charge.

He is holding AI meetings without senior executives.

He wants to talk directly to the engineers.

For decades, management were the "translators."

They move info from top to the bottom.

But now the "Information Gatekeeper" is becoming a bottleneck.

It'd probably be smart to take the opportunity here sooner rather than later.

Think about economic growth

It's just knowledge x labour = work

Post WWII the average growth in that equation has been 2–3%

When computing really took its stride like say the late 1990s it hit 4-5%

Anything above 6% is extremely rare

The US just hit 4.3

Why Elon is saying AI and robotics could send us to 10 percent +

AI can augment human cognitive work at scale

Knowledge work that took months could take days or hours

Scientific discovery and innovation cycles could compress

It will help optimize supply chains, manufacturing, and services

New industries and job categories we haven't imagined yet will emerge

It will lead to entirely new models of value creation at lower and lower costs

Even if he's wrong and it's 8 percent - it would be a v. productive time

The next decade will likely bring more economic transformation than we've seen in generations

Worth paying attention to.

For all of you that don't understand this

More compute than everyone else combined in 5 years

With zero energy cost - other than the Satellite Launches one time

This will change the world

The implosion probability here is absolutely wild

If the CEO doesn't like his own product, why should you? 😆

Satya Nadella just told his team that Copilot's integrations with Gmail and Outlook "don't really work" and are "not smart."

Yep.

But think about that for a moment.

This isn't some critic, it the CEO of Microsoft, admitting his flagship AI product doesn't deliver.

Enterprises are paying big money for Microsoft 365 Copilot.

If Nadella himself is frustrated enough to take direct control of product development and publicly (internally) trash the current state of the product, what does that tell you?

I'm not anti Microsoft.

Just try the product. It's not good.

I don't know a single company that's adopted it that's had a good experience.

Low adoption rates suddenly make a lot more sense in this context.

Yesterday I spoke about Antigravity

And a lot of people would have assumed it's about coding

Nah - it's also like a digital team that can do work for you

Here are some ways you can use it:

Need a custom calculator to solve a math problem? It'll build it.

Want to compare prices of goods? It'll go surf the web and summarise the prices

Got messy data? Hey it to format it and present it nicely for you

Got a document you want proof read? It'll do that for you

Want feedback on an assignment you wrote in alignment with the criteria? It'll do that from as many perspectives as you give it

Want to track habit? It'll build you a log app to track it

Want to take your rough notes and turn them into a clean list? Take a photo and it'll do it

Need to create a schedule? Feed in all the availability on your team and it'll schedule it

Its way more than an LLM.

Its more like an extra employee.

Go check it out. It’s wild. 🚀

VS Code has been around for donkeys years.

Then a long came Google Antigravity.

Its instantly familiar if you’ve used VS Code.

But the AI is built in, not bolted on.

Gemini actually helps you think, not just autocomplete.

All my VS Code extensions work.

No relearning. No pain.

I built a working iPhone app in under an hour the other night and I don't even know Swift 🤣

That’s never happened to me before.

Debugging is less painful.

Experimenting is actually fun.

It still does all the normal IDE stuff.

Nothing lost. A lot gained.

If you like building things, it’s worth a look.
