The transition from Model-Centric to Context-Centric AI. As base models commoditize, the value moves to the proprietary data retrieval and prompt optimization layers.
Implement an instruction-following re-ranker. Use small models to filter retrieval results before they hit the main context window to maintain high precision.
Context is the new moat. Your ability to coordinate sub-agents and manage context rot will determine your product's reliability over the next year.
The convergence of RL and self-supervised learning. As the boundary between "learning to see" and "learning to act" blurs, the winning agents will be those that treat the world as a giant classification problem.
Prioritize depth over width. When building action-oriented models, increase layer count while maintaining residual paths to maximize intelligence per parameter.
The "Scaling Laws" have arrived for RL. Expect a new class of robotics and agents that learn from raw interaction data rather than human-crafted reward functions.
The Age of Scaling is hitting a wall, leading to a migration toward reasoning and recursive models like TRM that win on efficiency.
Filter your research feed by implementation ease rather than just citation count to accelerate your development cycle.
In a world of AI-generated paper slop, the ability to quickly spin up a sandbox and verify code is the only sustainable competitive advantage for AI labs.
The transition from Black Box to Glass Box AI. Trust is the next moat, and interpretability is the tool to build it.
Use feature probing for high-stakes monitoring. It is more effective and cheaper than using LLMs as judges for tasks like PII scrubbing.
Understanding model internals is no longer just a safety research project. It is a production requirement for any builder deploying AI in regulated or high-stakes environments over the next 12 months.
The transition from completion to agency means benchmarks are moving from static snapshots to active environments.
Integrate unsolvable test cases into internal evaluations to measure model honesty.
Success in AI coding depends on navigating the messy, interactive reality of production codebases rather than chasing high scores on memorized puzzles.
The transition from technology push to market pull requires builders to stop focusing on the stack and start obsessing over user psychology.
Apply the Mom Test by asking users about their current workflows instead of pitching your solution. This prevents building expensive features that nobody uses.
The next decade of AI will be won by those who understand the human condition as deeply as they understand the transformer architecture.
