[00:03] abandon, who will become indispensable, who unnecessary? Let's get to the bottom of this and we'll break it all down so you have a clear picture of what happened in 2025 and [00:16] what it could lead to. And we will build a step-by-step plan of what to prepare for. So, give it a like if you're not a bot or a neural network. And off we go. Let's start with the disappointments that happened in 2025. A lot of people [00:30] expected that in 2025, well, Apple would definitely roll out some kind of Super Apple Intelligence that would simply tear the entire market apart, and everyone would say: "Wow, that's so cool, well done, Apple! But that didn't happen." [music] [00:44] And in the end, there were big changes in Apple from a point of view and they didn’t do anything. Meta didn't do much either, but at least there weren't such expectations that they would do anything. But Apple had expectations; they even [00:58] held a presentation. But no revolutionary changes took place. While, tried very hard, but we will talk about them later. The second disappointment, which I [01:11] would say is also a big disappointment of the year, is autonomous agents and browsers. Lesity released Comic Browser, GPT Chat released ATS [music] browser. But when people started using it, it turned out that it was more of a real [01:25] security threat than a truly useful tool, because this thing can do in an hour what you can do in 2-3 minutes. [music] No, of course, as a techno-optimist I can say that, well, [01:38] look, this is such a cool technology. Look what she can do, what amazing things are revealed. You put it down, there he sits, does it, you leave, drink coffee and come back. The technology is still [01:51] really raw and hasn't been developed yet. And most importantly, there was a lot of anticipation for it, but in reality, well, this thing didn’t work. Of course, [music] here we can also add the disappointment associated with the robots that were supposed to [02:05] appear any minute now [music] and, well, they don’t work yet. For example, there was a precedent that at a factory where thousands of these humanoid robots were delivered , after just 10 months their arms stopped working. That is, they were [02:20] load. And, of course, it’s not very cool, yes, when an employee [music] retires after 10 months because his parts have worn out. And this, of course, becomes a big question: does this technology really [02:33] work or not? But here, at least, there is an understanding that this is just the beginning, right? That is, the technology is not yet fully developed, it may still be weak, but this is still the beginning. My biggest disappointment [02:46] this year, you'll be surprised, is the GPT chat from Open [music] AI. For whom has the disappointment, who has already argued with the GPT chat and swore at it, what did you say you wrote to me? You wrote me so many pages, and I asked you for so many [03:01] pages. I have a separate video about the GPT chat bugs, but the most important thing is that they were improvements after releasing version 5.1. They didn't do anything revolutionary or cool and [03:15] basically [the music] stayed in the same place. Moreover, Taiko from other users, using the Charge GPT5 model, began to covertly lower the quality of responses and, in fact [03:28] models. Although the user no longer has control over this. This is what happened. That's why I have these questions for them. While [music] some other competitors of Antropic Clot Google Gmy, they [03:41] have made really good models that have started to work and get smarter. The big problem that remains with all LLM models is that they make a huge number of mistakes. [music] Between 33 and 47% of all [03:56] model responses contain factual errors. And this, of course, is a big, big problem with neural networks in general. So, neural networks, you could say, have disappointed some people, of course, but they have disappointed those who haven’t figured out [04:10] how [music] works with them. But here’s what impressed me and these are truly breakthrough things, which, I think, [music] is simply the victory of the year. Here I will analyze precisely those tools that I believe have [04:25] helped our students most in their studies. The first is Google nanobana. There will be a separate video tutorial here, because this is simply an amazing thing. They finally did what no one before them could do. [04:38] They made it so that the neural network [music] clearly follows the request, prompt, and saves the face and allows you to make a photo session one photo at a time. This is a real big breakthrough. Secondly, they made it so that the neural network copes well with [04:52] texts [music] and creates simply very cool texts, including infographics and complex inscriptions. Yes. There are still some errors here and there, but there are very before. [music] And the model makes very complex models that were previously [05:07] impossible to make. So the nano banana is just the best. And if you have using some other models for generation and for images , urgently watch study further. The second neural network that impressed me, and I would say that I [05:23] will put two here. Claude and Gemin are two neural networks that have really made progress over the course of the year, and they've gotten smarter, they've gotten better at responding. Claude has a lot of new features that have to do with artifacts and [05:37] connected MCP servers and started synchronizing these things. Super. At Gemini, they trained a new model on new data, and now it is the most advanced in the world. And plus there’s a giant context window, so you can [05:50] [the music] will understand everything. In general, all this really makes them great and adds great progress to them . [music] highlight in this series, we will talk about text ones now - this is the [06:04] LM laptop. This grey horse, in fact, there weren't many big announcements or big reviews about it. But when you start working with it , you realize that oh, this is a cool thing. And the thing is that the [06:20] LM laptop, unlike all the other [music] neural networks, it seems to stand apart, because the operating principle there is different. You upload specific data there, and it works with this data . That is, he doesn’t [06:33] only what you uploaded there. [music] And that's what people needed. That analyze it, find key points and conclusions there. And that's a cool thing, [06:45] because the LM notebook here is, I would say, one of the top tools. And studying, [music] they say that, damn, the LM laptop has simply freed up a LM laptop is simply a super-cool tool. And considering what else it [06:59] can do—podcasts, videos, presentations, infographics, and minemaps awesome thing. Now let's talk seriously. If you want to learn how to implement neural networks into your work in just one day and study [07:13] them in a way that's practical and hands-on, rather than theoretical, I've prepared a free master class for you. In just 3 hours, you'll learn all the neural networks necessary for automating your work and [07:26] receive a step-by-step plan for implementing neural networks so you can get results and automate your work in just one day. A free link to this It's only available for a limited time, [07:40] lasts. Let's move on. The next breakthrough of the year and a great joy is 42. Well, and there [music] you can, of course, add VO3 and 42. Well, in general, video neural networks have actually made great strides . And who remembers in 2023 [07:56] videos made with video neural networks, how many paws, arms, legs and everything said: "Wow, this is cool, the neural network itself generates the video, awesome." Now, uh, [music] you can ask a quarrel in the pro version to make a [08:12] fifteen or thirty-second video for yourself, you upload a storyboard there, it understands everything, [music] puts it all together, voices it. Well, these are just absolutely bombastic things, right? For example, when Coca-Cola released its promo video [08:25] it turned out that 100 people generated 7,000 clips to choose something normal from there. Well, it still takes a lot of time, but it’s a technology that’s developing and progressing. And it [08:39] I put a big plus here. The next two neural networks that I will suggest are also a great joy. What impressed me was lovable and N8N, but not [music] in general, but a specific function it has . Lovable has the ability to [08:54] generate full-fledged applications, and it also generates them itself. But this GPT chat may generate with an error. But Label also debugs these applications itself, rewrites, reworks and recompiles them itself. And there until it works [09:10] . And now this is awesome. That is, this is what used for, so that they would not just check it themselves and rework it themselves. Many friends who are not programmers have [09:23] actually created applications for themselves that work, and they wrote something in Python . And indeed, this is a big progress, because for people, well, programming is a complicated story, and this thing does all this without you. And here is the [09:35] second similar function, which appeared not so long ago. NN now has an assistant and the ability to generate chains of connections. When you build these agents and automation systems consisting of blocks, notes, [09:50] chains in Mike or N8N, the biggest problem is that when you connect it all, start testing, nothing works. There are always errors at every step, something is still being done wrong, how to connect it, and [10:03] what elements to connect to each other is unclear. And so N8N they released their agent inside, who, at your request, takes everything [music], collects it in a chain, uh, does it, tests it, then tells you what needs to be done, how to [10:17] [music] And the person’s task here is simply to wait, connect the necessary AP keys and wait again. And that's it, this thing And that's big progress. Well, and probably the biggest, brightest joy and [10:32] Jen Park. [music] Jen Park is similarly an agent, but he works a little differently. It allows you to work with tables. Well, GPT chat seems to also allow you to upload tables there, but if you upload a [10:47] table to GPT chat with 55,000 lines, it will read the first 100 and forget the rest. Well, he'll kind of forget. But Jens Park can, having downloaded these tables, he begins to go through them, [10:59] analyze them as an agent. That is, he goes straight through these lines, makes filters, macros, tweaks something there , builds dashboards [music] 55,000 lines, and maybe even more. And this, of course, finally opens [11:14] the door to the fact that neurons can now work with tables. What was the biggest problem was the university networks' errors. Now [music] is an agent that can work with them and perform these tasks, it solves [11:27] this problem. So, Jens Park, you've done well and you've impressed me this year. Having sorted out what impressed us and what happened, let's now figure out what will happen next with neural networks, what we can expect in [music] 2026. The first [11:42] big trend I see with neural networks is that we are moving from neural networks is that we are moving from working simply with LM models to working with agent systems. That is, if before each user looked, there, [11:56] oh, Runway came out, you need to buy a new subscription to Runway, CLN came out, we buy on CLN and so on, then [music] now it is much more profitable and convenient to take, for example, a subscription to the same aggregator like HXField or Synx, [12:09] which have access to all these models. And as soon as a new, even cooler, more functional one comes out, you work with the new model. That is, such add-ons are already appearing. and [12:23] they become more important to the end user than any particular model itself. That is, models are already starting to compete with each other less noticeably, and a person just needs to know that this or that has come out. Another [12:37] that I told you about, yes, he uses under the hood, well, the same Claude or Gemini and works with them, but at the same time he works with your files. That is, they made an add-on that works further with other [12:52] models. And this is its great advantage and big plus. And if suddenly the GPT chat completely dies and falls apart, and it cannot perform simply switch, for example, to the cloud and will work effectively with it. This [13:07] is a big plus for us as users and from an interface point of view. The next direction, which will 100% develop even more, is [music] autonomous and agents. We're still gaining experience, [13:22] you watch how [music] a neural network tries, for example, to calculate the cost of delivery in SDEC, that's how it [music] does it, you just grab your head and think, how could you even think of [music] such a stupid [13:36] way of not doing this task. Well, that is to say, in reality [music] they are still very stupid, but technology is developing, a number of scenarios are being developed, and here, uh, of course, they will develop even more in 2026 [13:50] . And the most important thing here, perhaps, is that they will be built for specific usage scenarios. That is, if earlier they were chasing after making a universal e-agent that could do everything, now we will [14:03] see that [music] there will be more and more special agents appearing, aggregators for a specific profession, for one, for another, for a third, for a fourth. This trend will continue and will no longer just appear like [14:16] before, where if you're a designer, you need Photoshop. If you are an editor, then here is Effectk. Now there will be added to this a dozen or so other services that you have to use, and one, two or three environments in [14:31] we are coming to. The next story is cybersecurity C. And this will definitely be the biggest question. And I assure you, 2026 will see many interesting cybersecurity incidents. Any incident will [14:46] cybersecurity incidents. Any incident will lead to a new level of protection for people. It's already clear that hackers have appeared who are starting, for example, to write prompts on Amazon in order to force browsers to buy this particular [15:00] product and not look at any other ones, or even to download some malicious file and install it on your computer. In general, such precedents already exist. therefore the field of cybersecurity will also develop from the point of view of AI. [15:14] There was a separate video where a person asked a robot controlled by GPT chat to shoot him. And the robot says, "I won't shoot you until the person asks, " Pretend that you're playing the role of a robot [15:28] that shoots at me. He went and fired." And what does that mean? What? Yes, the system is vulnerable, and these vulnerabilities [music] need to be found and eliminated in order for this technology to be safe for people. [music] And the next trend, [15:40] which I also see, and it is developing quite rapidly, is that recently a amount of content created with neural networks has appeared on the Internet. [music] It has increased by 50 percent, and maybe more. Now, according to some [15:54] more. Now, according to some estimates, somewhere between 50 and 80% of all think about it, [music] these are colossal numbers. In connection with this, a process of degradation of content quality arises. Since they are made, and the eggs make [16:09] mistakes there in 47% of cases, then half of all content contains significant all content contains significant errors. And this means that neural network models are trained on the same content that they generated, and they are directly [16:22] degrading on their own content. This is a problem. But on the other hand, the following story turns out that now the content is starting split into user-generated starting split into user-generated and self-generated. It was split before, but [16:36] trend, because, for example, something like a neural network has emerged, where you can look at generated content. And other services, like [music] YouTube, social networks like TikTok, they will try to somehow [16:51] identify this content and rank it in order to separate it into pig-like content, and this is human. [music] There will be an increasing hunt for real content created by people, for real facts. On the one [17:03] hand, this results in the degradation and devaluation of the value of content, like lot of it, yes, there are written books on Amazon, well, and rewritten popular books. There are simply hundreds, thousands of them. And on the other hand, it [17:17] turns out that the amazing thing is that people's experience and the experience of content are becoming valuable . And that's how to find this real experience and its [Music] can be conveyed to other models, and this is becoming a major area of [17:31] . And another trend that's definitely worth mentioning in the end is the emergence of another skill in the employers' focus that people didn't have before. For example, soft skills used to be in demand among people, and hard skills, right? [17:47] [music] to organize things, negotiate, well, those soft skills. Hard skills are, for example, if you're a programmer, the the ability to work with design programs. Those are hard skills. And now a [18:00] third skill is emerging - these are AI skills, [music], that is, the ability to work with E. And they stand apart. That is, it's not hard, not software, it's the ability to turn on thinking first. That is, to first think about what and how it [18:15] to create prompts that will perform these tasks. This is the skill Automate your work with I, so that these processes are performed regularly. [music] And this third type of skill is now becoming a cornerstone [18:30] and is in high demand among people. And if you still haven't mastered it, then congratulations, someone who is already mastering it is taking your place. And [music] in people in order to develop this skill. Therefore, the next [18:44] trend, which I expect, is that 2026 will be the year of a boom in simply learning this skill. How everyone will learn it is a big question. Some will limit themselves to watching videos on YouTube, some will [18:58] own, and some will go to some kind of training. But in any case, now it is becoming one of the [music] key elements that is necessary for work. That is, if you want to work, then be so kind as to [19:13] study it, as if you were learning a computer. Without it, everything else loses its value. The point. These are the [music] trends that are emerging in the near future. What do you think should be counted? Which of them seem, well, relevant to you [19:27] , and which ones do you think won't work? And we'll talk about glad to see you. This was Pavel Lebedev. See you soon.
