Citrini Research’s The 2028 Global Intelligence Crisis has reignited the AI economy debate. Could AI create trillions in “ghost GDP” while destroying jobs and destabilising the economy?

Plus: the Anthropic vs Pentagon drama continues, Anthropic holds the line, OpenAI capitalises, and Dario Amodei writes a blistering memo. GPT-5.3 Instant and GPT-5.4 Thinking & Pro arrive in quick succession, Quiver.ai produces genuinely usable vector graphics, and Sonauto pushes AI music into ethically murky territory.
