It was the year they optimized the first iteration of the Matrix

 Models like Kimi K3 - if they go through with releasing the weights - completely change things by diffusing broadly uncontrollable powerful AI into the world. Kimi K3 designed a chip to serve a nano model built on its own architecture. In a single 48-hour autonomous run, K3 built, optimized, and verified the chip using open-source EDA tools on the Nangate 45nm library.

Had the atomic bomb turned out to be something as cheap and easily manufactured as a bicycle or an alarm clock, it might well have plunged us back into barbarism, but it might, on the other hand, have meant the end of national sovereignty and of the highly-centralised police State. If, as seems to be the case, AI is anarchic and gravitates toward the anarchic internet model then that spells certain doom for all theocracies, nation states and large corporates. Many billionaires will die.

Emergent cryptoanarchy rules. The end of the world as we knew it.

 This is fine.
