Stripe processed $1.9 trillion in payments last year.
And in their 2026 annual letter, they mapped out the 5 stages of how AI agents are about to take over commerce completely.
Weāre only at Level 1.
Level 5 is your AI buying things for you before you even think to ask.
$5 trillion. Thatās what this shift is worth by 2030.
I broke it all down. Watch this. š
@samoflagos was all smiles on this day.š
It was special because Iāve known Sam for a long time now, and weāve worked together for some part of the past 7 years on @consonanceclub_@consonanceclub and with @oothenigerian on @techcircle123 . Glad to be a part of his journey.
I wish you @samoflagos & @tee_tayme a beautiful home, joy in abundance and peace that comes from being in your happy place. Congrats againššš„³
Everyone said Anthropic was the āsafeā AI company.
The Pentagon just called them a National Security Risk.
The same label they put on Huawei. On an American company. In 2026.
The $200M contract? Cancelled.
The $380B IPO? Frozen.
OpenAI? Already signed the replacement deal.
This is not just a tech story. This is the moment the U.S. government told every AI company - you donāt get to say no to us.
Full breakdown in the video. š
Words really canāt describe how much I love you, nor the gratitude in my heart to God for leading us here. Thereās no way this love was built by our own strength and I thank God for bringing good and godly counsel our way.
I look forward to the days, months, and years ahead because I know we are ready to face it all together. Youāve brought sunlight, spark, and beauty into my life, Adeyanju. ā¤ļø
You are the one my heart has chosen. You are my gift from God. With hands locked, eyes on God, and our lives merged as one, we will indeed live a life of purpose. I love you, my baby! @samoflagos
Everyone keeps asking me: āWill AI take my job?ā š¤
Honestly? I donāt have a straight answer. But hereās what I DO know; AI wonāt take your job. Someone who knows how to USE AI will. š”
The real question isnāt whether AI is coming⦠itās whether YOU are ready for what itās bringing with it.
Because while some doors are closing, a whole new floor of opportunities is opening up ā careers that didnāt even exist 5 years ago:
ā Forward Deploying Engineer
ā Prompt Engineer
ā Knowledge Engineer
ā¦and 12 more we broke down in our webinar last week š„
Last week we hosted a webinar covering 15 brand new career opportunities that AI is creating right now ā and the demand is MASSIVE.

They built an AI that can clone any movie, any character, any scene⦠and Hollywood is NOT happy š¤
Seedance 2.0 by ByteDance creates cinematic videos from just a text prompt. Weāre talking lip-sync, camera movement, realistic physics, all in one shot. The internet loved it. Netflix, Disney, Warner Bros., Paramount & Sony? Not so much. Cease-and-desist letters started flying calling it a āhigh-speed piracy engine.ā
But hereās the real debate: WHO should actually be held accountable ? š
1ļøā£ The users who type the prompts?
2ļøā£The model creator who built the tool?
3ļøā£Should AI be unrestricted to create anything?
Let me know what you think in the comments š Letās debate this.
Sony delayed the PS6 by over 4 years and itās not a Sony problem. Itās a Supply Chain problem.
AI data centers and gaming consoles run on the same chip, which is DRAM. Limited supply, high demand, and AI pays a lot more for it. So manufacturers go where the money is. Gaming gets pushed to the back of the line.
The real beneficiaries are the DRAM manufacturers, companies like Samsung, Hynix, Micron who are not choosing sides but are just taking the money.
The PS6 delay is just the most visible sign of a much bigger shift happening underneath the surface of the global tech economy.
Not a financial advice just for educational purposes. š
Adobe, Zoom, Salesforce and some other companies are waking up to a reality ā and their stock prices are screaming it. š
Imagine paying $200k/year for software your team can now build for free with AI. š¤Æ
Vibecoding changed the game. Companies are now building internal tools instead of buying them. No more per-seat pricing. No more annual contracts.
Even Spotifyās devs havenāt written a single line of code since December.
Let that sink in!
AI didnāt just automate work it might as well killed a trillion-dollar business model. š§Øš¦
Can this be the end of the SAAS era?
YC @ycombinator just changed the game for agencies forever. šØ
Y Combinator is now officially calling for āAI-Native Agencies.ā Why? Because the old model is dead. In the past, to double your revenue, you had to double your staff.
Now? You use AI Agents to provide āSoftware Marginsā on service-based work. You deliver the result at 10x the speed without the overhead of a 50-person team.
Iām currently running an experiment to help existing agencies make this transition.
š READ CAREFULLY: This is NOT for freelancers or beginners. This is for established Software or Digital Agencies with active clients who want to scale or become an AI Native Agency
