In early August, Chinese startup Unitree unveiled its new robot - A2 Stellar Hunter. The "robot dog" <a href="https://x.com/UnitreeRobotics/status/1952672597558309136">demonstrates</a> incredible tricks, from dancing on one leg to confidently traversing difficult terrain off-road. Almost simultaneously, Google's Deepmind lab announced the <a href="https://x.com/GoogleDeepMind/status/1952732150928724043">development of</a> Genie 3, its new AI capable of generating not just videos, but entire three-dimensional worlds that can be freely explored. Why, out of all the huge stream of news, do these two seem the most interesting to me? They demonstrate two vectors of technology development that, when combined, are capable of turning the world upside down.

Why are top soccer players bought up by the richest clubs for millions of dollars, while outstanding doctors and scientists settle for modest salaries of tens of thousands of dollars a year? The staggering fees of soccer players are explained by the high competition in world soccer, but shouldn't we compete in science in the same way, attracting the best talents from all over the world? These were the questions <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/science/political-science/2014/jan/30/why-not-treat-scientists-like-footballers">asked</a> back in 2014 by then British parliamentary candidate Daniel Zeichner (and, let's be honest, he was far from alone). And so a new frenzy seems to have begun in Silicon Valley. Tech companies are poaching each other's best AI experts for tens, and according to some reports, hundreds of millions of dollars in a frantic race to create artificial "superintelligence." The funny thing is that no one seems to know exactly what it is. But the money being offered is already quite real.

"Blood transfusion": how and why Meta "sucks" talent from the market
