We’ve Hit the Bottom of the Internet. AI Is About to Get Unbelievably Weird.
Human-generated internet data is running out by 2026, forcing AI to pivot to synthetic data. Far from a crisis, this ‘data wall’ is the catalyst for true AI autonomy.

The new bottleneck is compute infrastructure — and the race to build it defines the next decade of AI.
