#1 LATEST IN AI TODAY📎
What Happened (Apr 2026):
OpenAI released a 13-page policy paper outlining how society should prepare for superintelligence and its economic impact.
What You Need to Know:
The paper suggests taxing AI-driven profits and creating a sovereign-style wealth fund that pays dividends to citizens.
Other ideas include a 4-day workweek, “Right to AI” access, and portable benefits that follow workers across jobs.
It also calls for safety frameworks and containment plans as AI systems become more autonomous.
Why It Matters:
This is one of the clearest signals yet that AI leaders expect massive economic disruption — and are starting to propose how wealth and power should be redistributed.
#2 LATEST IN AI TODAY📎
What Happened (Apr 2026):
Meta is getting ready to release its first AI models built under new AI chief Alexandr Wang, including some that may be open-sourced.
What You Need to Know:
The models are part of Meta’s new Superintelligence team, formed after its $14.3B investment in Scale AI.
The flagship “Avocado” model was delayed after underperforming on benchmarks compared to rivals.
Meta is planning a hybrid strategy, with both open and closed models distributed across its products.
Why It Matters:
Meta is doubling down on its open AI strategy — but this will be the first real test of whether it can keep up with OpenAI and Anthropic.
