My fellow Europeans! 🇪🇺 ... and probably the rest of us soon?! You have to fight ChatControl! 💪🏻 You cannot make society secure by making people insecure! We all deserve privacy and security, without inevitably hackable backdoors, for our private communications. The fact that the government officials want to exempt themselves from their own law is telling! 🚨

China’s Alibaba Qwen team keeps shipping the best open-source models and this time it is an omni-modal model, similar to GPT-4o and Gemini’s version that power their Voice Modes. Qwen3-Omni is a natively end-to-end multilingual omni model that can process text, images, audio, and video, and deliver real-time streaming responses in both text and natural speech. It's built from the ground up using a novel Thinker-Talker architecture where one component handles reasoning while another generates real-time speech. The model's efficiency is staggering, using only 3B active parameters from 30B total, competing with much larger models on everything from complex reasoning to music analysis. With Apache 2.0 licensing and complete model weights available, you can now build "Her"-style AI assistants without being locked into expensive cloud services. Key Highlights: 1. Speech Architecture - Uses advanced audio encoding that drives latency down to an industry-leading 211ms. 2. Extended Understanding - Can process up to 30-minute audio sequences while maintaining coherent understanding and generating contextually relevant responses throughout the entire duration. 3. Specialized Audio Captioner - Ships with Qwen3-Omni-30B-A3B-Captioner, an open-source model specifically fine-tuned for detailed, low-hallucination audio descriptions, filling a critical gap in the open-source ecosystem. 4. Customization - Qwen3-Omni can be freely adapted via system prompts to modify response styles, personas, and behavioral attributes. 5. Deployment - Includes Docker containers, vLLM support, and API access through DashScope, plus comprehensive cookbooks covering everything from music analysis to real-time video navigation.

You have to see this to believe it!

I'm writing this because I care deeply about this community. I see the incredible energy and passion you're all pouring into your work and education, and I want to make sure we are all on the smartest path forward. To do that, we need to have a serious, honest conversation. Many of us are competing against each other, trying to build a better SaaS, brand, product or agency. But that's the wrong competition. The real competition is the bullet train coming down the track: first AGI, and then ASI. The old way of making money online, selling your knowledge or skill, is dying. AGI will make knowledge arbitrage worthless because it will provide better, personalized plans for free and be able to build entire businesses in hours that will crush the competition on price and dev cycles. This means many of the AI businesses people are starting today have a built-in expiration date and the key is to be aware of this! THE DANGER ZONE: BUSINESSES THAT WILL FAIL If your business is on this list, don't panic. It’s not a failure. It's a signal that we need a strategic plan to pivot. You need to cash out on what you can before AGI takes all the cash. These models are built on a foundation that is about to crumble: 1. SaaS "Wrappers" and Automations: An app that's just a nice design on top of a basic AI function (like a caption writer, image creator, video creator, etc.). AGI will absorb these functions, making them pretty much free features. 2. Generic Content & SEO Agencies: AGI will produce unlimited content, making this a race to the bottom. 3. Broad-Topic Coaching/Courses: AGI will be the ultimate free, personal tutor. This is the hard truth. But it's also where our real strategy begins. OUR PIVOT PLAN: THE TEMPORARY WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY We have a window of time between AGI becoming mainstream and ASI changing the world in ways we can't even comprehend. Our job is to use this window to build the resources we need now. The strategies below are not permanent solutions. ASI + Robots will eventually replace these too.
