AI Unraveled: Latest AI News & Trends, ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek, Gen AI, LLMs, Agents, Ethics, Bias

🚀 Welcome to the 2026 Prediction Audit Special on AI Unraveled.The "Year of AGI" has concluded, but the machine god never arrived. Instead, 2025 left us with a digital landscape cluttered with "slop," a 95% failure rate for autonomous agents, and a sobering reality check on the physics of intelligence.In this special forensic accounting of the year that was, we dismantle the hype of 2025 to build a grounded baseline for 2026. We contrast the exuberant forecasts of industry captains—who promised us imminent superintelligence—with the operational realities of the last twelve months.Strategic Pillars & Key Topics:📉 The AGI Audit & The Agentic GapThe Deployment Wall: While raw model performance scaled (GPT-5.2 and Gemini 3 shattered benchmarks), the translation into economic value stalled.95% Failure Rate: We analyze why the "digital workforce" narrative collapsed into a "human-in-the-loop" reality, leaving a wreckage of failed pilots in its wake.🌫️ The Culture of "Slop"Word of the Year: Merriam-Webster selected "Slop" as the defining word of 2025, acknowledging the textural shift of the internet.Dead Internet Theory: How AI-generated filler content overwhelmed organic interaction, validating the once-fringe theory with hard traffic data.🔋 Physics & The Model WarsThe Energy Ceiling: The brutal constraints of power consumption that put a leash on scaling laws.The Monopoly Endures: Despite the hype, the Nvidia monopoly remains the bedrock of the industry.GPT-5.2 vs. Gemini 3 vs. Llama 4: A technical review of the battleground that prioritized "System 2" reasoning over real-world agency.🌍 The Regulatory SplinternetUS vs. EU: The widening divergence between the American "Wild West" approach and Europe's compliance-heavy regime.Keywords: AGI Prediction Audit, AI Slop, Dead Internet Theory, Agentic AI Failure Rate, GPT-5.2 vs Gemini 3, Nvidia Monopoly, AI Energy Crisis, Generative Noise, 2026 AI Trends, Etienne Noumen.Source article: https://djamgatech.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/AI-Prediction-Audit_-2025-Review.pdfHost Connection & Engagement:Connect with Etienne: https://www.linkedin.com/in/enoumen/Advertise on AI Unraveled and reach C-Suite Executives directly: Secure Your Mid-Roll Spot here: https://forms.gle/Yqk7nBtAQYKtryvM6DjamgaMind: https://djamgatech.com/djamgamind🚀Strategic Consultation with our host: You have seen the power of AI Unraveled: zero-noise, high-signal intelligence for the world's most critical AI builders.

The Death of "Vibe Revenue": Agentic P&L, The 2026 Audit & New AI Metrics (CPSO vs. RPA).The era of "Vibe Revenue"—valuations built on flashy demos and FOMO—is officially over. In this special strategic briefing, we unpack "The Great Sobering" of 2026. As CFOs stop funding open-ended experiments, we introduce the rigorous financial framework that will define the next year: Agentic P&L.We break down the "Great Chasm" between technical capability and actual EBIT, and we teach you the three defensive metrics you need to survive the coming audit: Cost Per Successful Outcome (CPSO), Revenue Per Agent (RPA), and the Agentic Workflow Displacement Rate (AWDR). It’s time to stop paying for output tokens and start paying for business outcomes.Key Topics & Timestamps:The Executive Summary: Why 2025 was the party and 2026 is the audit.The Concept: Defining "Agentic P&L"—treating AI not as software, but as labor with a quota.Metric 1: CPSO: Why "time saved" is a vanity metric and how to calculate Cost Per Successful Outcome.Metric 2: RPA: Revenue Per Agent—measuring the top-line contribution of your digital employees.Metric 3: AWDR: The Agentic Workflow Displacement Rate and the "Great Chasm" of adoption.The Strategy: Moving from token-based pricing to outcome-based contracts.Keywords: Agentic P&L, Vibe Revenue, Cost Per Successful Outcome, CPSO, Revenue Per Agent, RPA, AI ROI, AI Audit 2026, AI Unit Economics, Agentic Workflow Displacement Rate, AWDR, Etienne Noumen, AI UnraveledSource: https://djamgatech.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/AIs-Shift_-From-Vibe-to-PL.pdfCredits: This podcast is created and produced by Etienne Noumen, Senior Software Engineer and passionate Soccer dad from Canada.Host Connection & Engagement:Connect with Etienne: https://www.linkedin.com/in/enoumen/Advertise on AI Unraveled and reach C-Suite Executives directly: Secure Your Mid-Roll Spot here: https://forms.gle/Yqk7nBtAQYKtryvM6🚀Strategic Consultation with our host: You have seen the power of AI Unraveled: zero-noise, high-signal intelligence for the world's most critical AI builders.
