The Origin
Robots, drones, open-world AI models, and a potential war over Taiwan. This isn’t sci-fi — it’s the world we’re building in real time. In this post, Self Evidence highlights one of the clearest breakdowns of that future so far, from the brilliant channel Digital Engine.
Big shout-out to Digital Engine:

Digital Engine walks through the uncomfortable truth: AI isn’t just about fun tools and clever chatbots. It’s rapidly merging with robotics, drones, and military planning — especially in the escalating tension between the U.S. and China over Taiwan. At the same time, the video explores the breathtaking upside of safe AI: radical progress in medicine, aging, neuroscience and mental health.
As Max Tegmark and other researchers point out, “inevitable” is a story we tell ourselves. The future of AI is still a choice — between profit-driven acceleration and a slower, safer path where humanity stays in charge.
If you’ve ever wondered whether the “AI race” ends in extinction, utopia, or something painfully human in between — this video is your starting point. Watch it, share it, and then go argue about it in the group chat.
✨ Save this post for later and share it with someone who still thinks AI is “just about cool apps.”
