Also, in agent tasks, in the OSWorld test, frontier AI strength (66.3%) is approaching the human baseline.
However, in the PaperArena test专门评估科研逻辑, the strongest AI-powered Agent scored only 39%, half the capability of a PhD student.
But this unevenness doesn't stop companies from integrating AI into production lines.
Another number from the AI Index is that the global enterprise AI adoption rate has reached 88%. Ninety percent of companies have integrated AI into some workflow.
The cost is rising simultaneously. Recorded AI-related incidents increased from 233 in 2024 to 362.
Money is Accelerating: $581.7 Billion Poured into AI
Global corporate AI investment in 2025 reached $581.7 billion, a year-on-year increase of 130%.其中, private investment was $344.7 billion, up 127.5% year-on-year.
Both curves almost doubled.
By country, the US is in a league of its own. US private AI investment in 2025 was $285.9 billion. And it added 1,953 AI startups in one year, also more than 10 times the number of the second-ranked country.
Money is accelerating into the US. But another core US resource is moving in the opposite direction.
People are Flowing Out: AI Researchers Entering the US Fell 89%
There's a set of numbers that makes one pause.
From 2017 to now, the number of AI researchers and developers entering the US has fallen by 89%.
More critically, this decline is accelerating. In the past year alone, the drop was 80%.极速发展的AI:能力飞升,其他一切都在脱节" alt="">
The US still has the highest density of AI researchers globally, but the inflow tap is tightening.
The curves of money and people are starting to反向. This is a situation not seen in the past decade.
Computing Power Rose 30-Fold in 3 Years, Lifelines in One Company's Hands
The AI capability curve is accelerating, but the computing power curve behind it is running even faster.
From 2021 to now, global AI computing power has increased 30-fold. Over the past three years, it has tripled every year.
This curve is supported by a few companies.
NVIDIA's GPUs alone account for over 60% of the world's AI computing power. Amazon and Google rank second and third with their own chips, but combined they are far behind NVIDIA.
And almost all these chips come from one foundry, TSMC. The steeper the computing power curve, the narrower the lifeline.
Meanwhile, the cost is also increasing.
The total power of global AI data centers has reached 29.6 GW, equivalent to New York State's entire peak electricity demand. The estimated carbon emission for one training run of xAI Grok 4 is 72,816 tons of CO2 equivalent, equal to the tailpipe emissions of 17,000 cars driving for a year.
Where data centers are built, where electricity comes from, where chips are produced—these three questions have become the most headache-inducing issues on every AI company CEO's desk this year.
Generative AI Penetrated 53% in Three Years, Chinese Workplace Usage Exceeds 80%
Generative AI reached a global population penetration rate of 53% within three years.
This speed is faster than personal computers, faster than the internet.
But penetration speed is highly correlated with country. Singapore 61%, UAE 54%, both ahead of the US. The US ranks only 24th among the surveyed countries, with a penetration rate of 28.3%.
If we change the dimension from consumers to the workplace, the contrast is greater.
Another set of data in the report shows that in 2025, 58% of employees globally had already started using AI regularly at work. But in five countries—China, India, Nigeria, UAE, Saudi Arabia—this proportion exceeded 80%.
China's workplace AI penetration rate is already more than 20 percentage points higher than the global average.
Even more interesting is consumer value.
AI Index estimates that by early 2026, generative AI tools create $172 billion in value annually for US consumers. From 2025 to 2026, the median value per user tripled.
The vast majority of users are still using the free version.
Entry-Level Positions Sharply Reduced, 22-25 Year-Old Dev Jobs Slashed 20%
The part of the entire AI Index that might be most沉默 for Chinese readers is probably the section on youth employment.
The number of employed software developers aged 22 to 25 has fallen by about 20% since 2024.
During the same period, older peer groups actually grew.
Not just development roles. Other high-AI-exposure industries like customer service are also showing the same pattern.
More worrying are the results of corporate surveys. Respondent executives generally expect future layoffs to be larger than in the past few months.
This isn't about the macro unemployment rate; it's about entry-level positions being precisely cut off.
If the first job is gone, the entire career ladder loses a rung. The long-term impact of this is something no one can calculate yet.
AI is Rewriting the Way Science is Done
If the employment section is cold, the science section is hot.
AI-related papers in natural sciences, physical sciences, and life sciences grew by 26% to 28% year-on-year in 2025.
Specifically in application, this year for the first time an AI completely ran an end-to-end weather forecasting process. From raw meteorological observation data directly outputting final forecasts for temperature, wind speed, humidity, with no traditional numerical models介入.
AI is moving from "helping you write papers" "helping you calculate numbers" to "making discoveries itself".
It's the same in hospitals. In 2025, many hospitals began deploying AI tools that can automatically generate clinical records from consultation dialogues. Doctors in multiple hospital systems reported that time spent writing medical records was reduced by up to 83%, with significant decreases in burnout.
But the same index pours cold water on medical AI. A review of over 500 clinical AI studies found that nearly half relied on exam-style datasets, and only 5% used real clinical data.
AI can reduce doctors' typing time, that's certain. AI's clinical value on real patients currently has many question marks.
Self-Learning Wave Explodes Globally, Formal Education Has Fallen Behind
Formal education can't keep up with AI.
4/5 of US high school and college students now use AI to complete school assignments. But only half of secondary schools have AI usage policies, and only 6% of teachers think these policies are clear.
Students are running ahead, teachers are still in place, rules haven't appeared yet.
While formal education falls behind, the self-learning wave is exploding globally. It says the three countries with the fastest growth in learning AI engineering skills are the UAE, Chile, and South Africa.
Not the US, not Europe.
The steepest part of the skill curve is growing in places no one is looking.

Strongest Models Become the Most Opaque, Experts and Public are分裂
The strongest models are becoming the most opaque models.
The Foundation Model Transparency Index's average score fell from 58 last year to 40 this year. The AI Index directly点名, Google, Anthropic, OpenAI have all stopped公开 the training data scale and training duration of their latest models.
Of the 95 most representative models released last year, 80 did not公开 training code.
Public sentiment has also become more complex.
Globally, the proportion believing AI's benefits outweigh the risks rose from 52% to 59%. But during the same period, the proportion feeling nervous about AI rose from 50% to 52%.
Both directions are growing simultaneously.
The most分裂 is the US. Only 33% of Americans think AI will make their jobs better, the global average is 40%. Americans' trust in their own government to regulate AI is the lowest among surveyed countries, 31%.
Singaporeans' trust in their government to regulate AI is 81%.
After the recent incident at Sam Altman's house was袭击, Silicon Valley insiders were "surprised to find" that ordinary people in the Instagram comments were not sympathetic, some even felt "it should be more intense".
They didn't realize things had gotten this bad.
The Pew and Ipsos data cited in the report show that the perception gap between experts and the public on the impact of AI on employment, healthcare, economy, etc.,普遍 exceeds 30 percentage points, with the largest gap reaching 50 percentage points.
On one side, the curves in the lab are soaring; on the other, ordinary people's unease is accumulating.
There is no bridge in between.
In Conclusion
The 423-page report has hundreds of charts, but it really only draws one picture.
The horizontal axis is time, the vertical axis is capability.
The model capability curve is flying, the computing power curve is flying, the investment curve is flying, the adoption rate curve is flying. Everything else is stagnating or moving downward.
This is the entire content of the 2026 AI Index.
AI is accelerating. Everything else is decoupling.
If you are in this industry, the question to ask now is not "what will the future be like", but "which curve are you standing on".

You Bet on the News, the Pros Read the Rules: The True Cognitive Gap in Losing Money on Polymarket
The article explains that the key to profiting on Polymarket, a prediction market platform, lies not just predicting real-world events correctly, but in meticulously understanding the specific rules that govern how each market will be resolved.
It illustrates this with examples, such as a market on Venezuela's 2026 leader, where the official rules defining "officially holds" the office overruled the intuitive answer of who was in practical control. Other examples include debates over the definition of a "token" or what constitutes an "agreement."
The core argument is that a "reality vs. rules" gap creates pricing discrepancies that savvy traders ("车头" or "whales") exploit. The platform has a formal dispute resolution process managed by UMA token holders to settle ambiguous outcomes. This process involves proposal submission, a challenge window, a discussion period, and a final vote.
However, the article highlights a critical flaw in this system compared to a traditional court: the lack of separation between the arbiters (UMA voters) and the interested parties (traders with financial stakes in the outcome). This conflict of interest undermines the discussion phase, leads to herd mentality, and results in opaque final decisions without explanatory rulings. Consequently, the system lacks a body of precedent, making it difficult for users to learn from past disputes. The ultimate takeaway is that success on Polymarket requires a lawyer-like scrutiny of the rules to identify and capitalize on the cognitive gap between how events appear and how they are contractually defined for settlement.

Will Solana Flip Ethereum Soon? SOL Takes First Step Toward Total Domination
Solana has significantly closed the gap with Ethereum, particularly in transaction volume, processing 9 billion transactions last month compared to Ethereum's 69 million. It has also surpassed Ethereum in cumulative lifetime transactions. This highlights Solana's high-throughput, low-cost architecture designed for real-time usage. Major partnerships, such as with Visa for stablecoin settlements and Western Union's upcoming stablecoin launch, underscore its growing institutional adoption. Solana has even overtaken Ethereum in real-world asset (RWA) holders. However, a complete "flippening" depends on broader factors like capital inflows, developer activity, and network confidence. While Solana's smaller market cap suggests greater growth potential, Ethereum's Layer-2 scaling strategy strengthens its ecosystem. The outcome remains uncertain, with trade-offs on both sides.

Spending $200 to Buy Stars, Scamming VCs Out of Tens of Millions: The Entire GitHub Fake Star Industry Exposed
A peer-reviewed study from Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) reveals that GitHub hosts approximately 6 million fake Stars, involving 18,600 repositories and 301,000 accounts, with AI/LLM projects being the largest non-malicious category for fake engagement. The fake Star market has exploded, with prices as low as $0.03 per Star.
Research shows that venture capital firms, such as Redpoint Ventures, use GitHub Star counts as a key metric for evaluating startups, with median Stars at 2,850 for seed-stage funding. For less than $200, a project can artificially meet this threshold, distorting investment landscape.
Over a dozen websites openly sell GitHub Stars, and fake Star activity saw explosive growth in 2024. AI-related repositories were among the most heavily affected. Despite GitHub’s policies against fake engagement, enforcement remains inconsistent: while 90% of flagged repositories were deleted, only 57% of involved accounts were suspended.
The report highlights how purchased Stars can manipulate GitHub’s Trending algorithm and influence VC funding decisions, creating a cycle where artificial metrics attract real investment.

Will the Fed Still Cut Interest Rates? Tonight's Data Is Crucial
The core debate surrounding the Federal Reserve's potential interest rate cuts is intensifying amid geopolitical conflict and rebounding inflation. The key question is whether high energy prices will cause persistent inflation or weaken consumer demand enough to force the Fed to cut rates.
Citigroup presents a bullish case for cuts, arguing that oil supply disruptions from the Strait of Hormuz are temporary and will not lead to lasting inflationary pressure. They point to receding bond yields and oil prices as evidence the market is pricing in a short-lived shock. Citi's data also shows tightening financial conditions, a stabilizing labor market, and healthy tax returns, supporting their view that the path to lower rates remains open.
Conversely, Deutsche Bank offers a starkly contrasting, more hawkish outlook. They argue the Fed's current policy is already neutral and expect rates to remain unchanged indefinitely. Their view is based on stalled disinflation progress and a shift toward more hawkish rhetoric from key Fed officials like Waller, who cited risks from prolonged Middle East conflict and tariffs. Other officials, including Williams and Hammack, signaled rates would likely stay on hold for a "considerable time." The market pricing has shifted dramatically, now forecasting zero cuts in 2026.
The imminent release of the March retail sales "control group" data is highlighted as a critical test. This metric, which excludes gas station sales, will reveal if high gasoline prices are eroding consumer spending in other areas. A weak reading could support the case for imminent rate cuts, while a strong one would bolster the argument for the Fed to hold steady. This data is pivotal for determining the near-term policy path.

The Second Half of Macro Influencer Fu Peng's Career
Fu Peng, a prominent Chinese macroeconomist and former chief economist of Northeast Securities, has joined Hong Kong-based digital asset management firm Bitfire Group (formerly New Huo Group) as its chief economist. This move, announced in April 2026, triggered an 11% surge in Bitfire's stock price.
Fu, known for his accessible macroeconomic commentary and large social media following, will focus on integrating digital assets into global asset allocation frameworks, particularly combining FICC (fixed income, currencies, and commodities) with cryptocurrencies for institutional clients.
His career includes roles at Lehman Brothers and Solomon International, with significant influence gained through public communication. However, in late 2024, Fu faced temporary social media bans after a controversial private speech at HSBC on China's economic challenges, though he denied regulatory sanctions. He later left Northeast Securities citing health reasons.
Bitfire, a licensed virtual asset manager serving high-net-worth clients, seeks to build trust and attract traditional capital through Fu’s expertise and credibility. The partnership represents a strategic shift for both: Fu enters the crypto sector after a traditional finance peak, while Bitfire aims to leverage his macro framework for institutional adoption. Outcomes remain uncertain regarding capital inflows and compatibility within corporate structure.
