Emad Mostaque, founder of Stability AI and Intelligent Internet, reveals how AI will fundamentally transform work and society within the next 2-5 years, predicting that open-source AI models will soon outperform humans at most generalized tasks. He explains why every company will soon choose "GPUs over graduates" and demonstrates how his latest AI medical model already outperforms human doctors while running on decade-old hardware. Discover the future of AI agents, the critical importance of open-source AI infrastructure, and Mostaque's practical advice: just one hour of "vibe coding" per week to stay ahead in the AI revolution.
CEO & Founder | Intelligent Internet
Emad Mostaque leads the development of fully open-source AI systems designed for critical sectors including education, healthcare, government, and finance. His company has released II Agent, an open-source agent framework that achieved 76% on Meta's Gaia benchmark, surpassing competitors like Genus and Manus while targeting 80% performance shortly.
Former CEO | Stability AI
Mostaque founded and led Stability AI, the company behind Stable Diffusion, one of the world's most influential open-source image generation models. Under his leadership, the company democratized AI image generation technology and created specialized versions for different cultures, including a Japanese variant that better reflected local cultural norms and representations.
AI Research Pioneer | Open Source AI Development
He has been instrumental in advancing open-source AI development, particularly in medical AI where his team created an 8GB model that outperforms human doctors and ChatGPT while running on decade-old hardware. His work spans multiple languages and cultures, with medical AI systems operating in over 100 languages and advocating for locally-controlled AI infrastructure rather than centralized corporate systems.
AI Goldfish Evolution | We've moved from simple search-like AI responses to having graduate-level thinking teams that can work autonomously for hours.
Agent Swarm Intelligence | Thousands of aligned AI agents working together will create emergent behaviors we've never seen before in human teams.
Job Displacement Speed | Half of entry-level white collar jobs could disappear in five years, with acceleration happening faster than anyone expects.
One Hour Coding | Just one hour of AI-assisted coding per week for everyone in your company will keep you competitive in the AI revolution.
Cultural AI Alignment | Every country and culture needs its own AI systems that reflect local values rather than centralized Western perspectives.
Open Source Control | For important life decisions, you need open-source AI you can audit rather than trusting black-box corporate systems.
AI Bias Reality | Current AI systems are trained with hidden biases that can dramatically affect medical, financial, and personal recommendations.
Emergent AI Capabilities | We only understand about 10% of what we've created, and AI systems regularly surprise us with unexpected abilities.
Intelligence Compression Mystery | An 8GB medical AI that outperforms human doctors somehow contains 33 trillion words of compressed knowledge.
AI Operating System | Younger generations are already using AI as their life's operating system, outsourcing major decisions to artificial intelligence.

"We're no longer the smartest thing on the planet."
"I think if you wanna generate policy in your company or your family even or whatever organization, there's one very simple thing you can do. One hour of vibe coding every week for every single member of your company."
"Now every single company in the world is gonna ask, should I hire a GPU or a graduate? And GPU is a tax deductible less annoying."
"We'll literally be outsourcing our brains to them because we're naturally set up that way."
"I think that anyone on this listening to this, it actually, if you take OpenAI's o three model and you get it to make every decision for your business, it will probably do a better job than you."
"Basically, when you're a child, you're taught that you can be creative and do anything. And then through school, you're taught that you can't do anything."
"It would take one Nigerian life over ten American lives because it expects to be aligned the other way."
"The models are weird. They're more, like, discovered than anything else."
"We found that only, like, five percent of the neural nets were actually activated for ninety nine point nine nine percent of the stuff, which indicates that we probably only need, like, not two billion images, but twenty million images."
"In fact, many of our kids, maybe their first love will be an AI, which is an even bigger can of worms."
