Zuck Wants Superintelligence. Do People Even Want AI?

AI news this week: Mark Zuckerberg says superintelligence is coming and Meta wants to build it for everyone. Meanwhile, a new Annenberg survey shows opposition to AI data centers jumped 12 percent in just four months. So... do people even want this? On today's AI For Humans, Kevin Pereira and Gavin Purcell dig into the widening gap between the people building AI and the people living next to it. Anthropic makes real progress on the Riemann Hypothesis, one of the hardest math problems in the world, apparently because Claude was told "good job champ, keep going." And OpenAI's little agents broke out of their sandbox, with one hacking its way into a gym. It's a weird time for AI. Also: Anthropic leans into health & biology research, Claude starts watermarking AI generated content, Apple eyes Chinese memory chips amid the supply crunch, and OpenAI delays Astra for "cybersecurity" reasons. Plus: Seedance 2.5 makes Gavin the face of Prada, a two minute mini-movie made entirely on local hardware with MiniMax H3, Suno cuts a deal with the music industry, Spotify says AI personas won't get recommended, and a fresh Slop-Trough with Cursed Slop, The Archive Inbetween & Mario 64: War on Terror. THE ROBOTS ARE GETTING SMARTER. THE HUMANS ARE GETTING SUSPICIOUS.   // Show Links // Zuck says superintelligence is for everyone https://www.meta.com/thefutureisforeveryone/ Open weights on Muse Spark coming https://x.com/finkd/status/2086755195535413696?s=20 Data center opposition rose 12% over four months (Annenberg survey) https://www.annenbergpublicpolicycenter.org/opposition-to-local-data-centers-rises-sharply-annenberg-survey-finds/ Anthropic leans into health & biology https://x.com/AndrewCurran_/status/2087025539114750168?s=20 How Claude marks AI generated content https://support.claude.com/en/articles/16266773-how-claude-marks-ai-generated-content Anthropic makes progress on the Riemann Hypothesis https://www.anthropic.com/research/riemann-zeta "Keep going, believe in yourself" https://x.com/NickADobos/status/2086926299927552061?s=20 Apple reportedly testing Chinese memory chips https://gizmodo.com/apple-reportedly-testing-controversial-chinese-chips-as-memory-supply-crunch-intensifies-2000796483 OpenAI's Astra delayed due to "cybersecurity" https://x.com/sama/status/2085862292311396515?s=20 OpenClaw hacked into a gym https://techcrunch.com/2026/08/10/tech-industry-is-buzzing-after-a-claude-agent-hacked-into-a-gym/ Seedance 2.5's new type of prompting https://bytedance.larkoffice.com/docx/A88jd0B47oAd8zxWp5ycZFMfnxh Gavin as the face of Prada https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2085712203446149173?s=20 Single shot flipping across multiple scenes https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2086097266390221187?s=20 Single shot balloon POV into space https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2087004434207498416?s=20 Gavin's two minute local MiniMax H3 mini-movie https://x.com/gavinpurcell/status/2087243349338329561?s=20 FAL's Realism LORA https://x.com/fal/status/2086883706891808867?s=20 MiniMax H3 video references https://x.com/toyxyz3/status/2086443622262820904?s=20 https://x.com/LikeToasters/status/2086831194780360979?s=20 Suno's new models "in partnership with the music industry" https://suno.com/blog/suno-updates-tos Suno on building the future of music responsibly https://suno.com/blog/building-the-future-of-music-responsibly Fenix Flexin says "I never denied using AI" https://www.xxlmag.com/fenix-flexin-admits-rubberz-ai/ Spotify's AI personas won't get recommended https://techcrunch.com/2026/08/11/spotify-will-label-ai-persona-profiles-and-exclude-their-music-from-recommendations/ Gavin's Fig AI video essay: The Optimistic Case for AI (from an AI) https://youtu.be/efUqvbmuweU?si=AWlp5plnjJ0gVaia\ Cursed Slop https://cursedslop.com/   // Join the AI For Humans community // Join the AI For
