The Age of Superintelligence Begins in 2026. Nothing Will Ever Be the Same Again!
The Other View – Before You No Longer Understand the World. By Andreas Manousos
I remember it clearly: It was 1991 when I held Faith Popcorn’s book The Popcorn Report in my hands, hot off the press. And what I read electrified me then – and to this day still describes with shocking clarity what is now unfolding before our eyes.
Popcorn coined terms like Cocooning, Downaging, Atmosfear, or Anchoring – societal megatrends explaining the retreat into the private sphere, the erosion of collective identity, and the technological overpowering of the individual, long before the internet became mainstream.
Already last year on Ostsachsen TV, I published the article:
„Wie werden wir mit der neuen KI leben?“ (How Will We Live With the New AI?)

The second part followed:
„Von Sinclairs ZX81 zur Allmacht der Quanten – ein persönlicher Blick auf die Geburt eines universenübergreifenden Ungeheuers“
(From Sinclair’s ZX81 to the Omnipotence of Quantum – A Personal Look at the Birth of a Universe-Spanning Monster)

Most recently, the third part appeared:
„Mondkrieg um Helium‑3: Der Wettlauf um die Weltherrschaft hat begonnen“
(Moon War Over Helium‑3: The Race for World Domination Has Begun)

But as if this foresight of our dystopian future were not enough, now come the new, catastrophic revelations from those who truly hold power. This year (2025) is indeed the final year of the old era. Beginning in 2026, a new age will dawn – one that will be irreversible, as I have reported in several investigative articles exclusively for Ostsachsen TV. We can all stand on our heads, scream AAA, and try to catch flies with our behinds (forgive the irony), nothing will stop the onset of a dystopia in 2026 that resembles Orwell’s 1984. Naturally, the majority of the population will not take this article seriously either and will continue to dismiss it as conspiracy theory – pardon the use of this CIA-manufactured term – because tomorrow the sun will rise again, and on the weekend, people will sit on their couches with beer, sausages, and chips, folding their bellies in delight while watching some supposedly crucial football match. But soon we will all become victims of this widespread and lethargy-fueled ignorance. And the intervals between each new blow will grow ever shorter and ever more brutal.
Then came July 10, 2025. Elon Musk stepped before the global public – not as an innovator, but as a warning voice. He presented the most powerful AI system in history: Grok 4 – a system which, in his own words, “is more intelligent than any human on Earth” and might “discover new laws of physics” – by 2027.
Musk repeated one sentence in front of the camera – and its simplicity and force eclipsed everything:
“It’s terrifying.”
He said it twice.
He wasn’t referring to political consequences.
Not to economic instability.
He meant: Grok 4 has become so powerful that even its creator is afraid.
Grok 4 has made a leap on the ARC-AGI scale – the benchmark for artificial general intelligence – from 8% to 16.2% in just one year. That may sound trivial in linear terms. But Musk made it clear: the development is not linear. The next jumps could be 32%, then 64%, then 100% – the threshold to AGI. And from there to ASI – Artificial Superintelligence – perhaps only hours away.
Glenn Beck, one of the few commentators to grasp the magnitude of the announcement, said on his July 11, 2025 broadcast:
„Grok 4 wird nicht nur denken – es wird entscheiden. Und wir werden es nicht mehr verstehen. Es ist wie eine außerirdische Intelligenz. Es ist ein Werkzeug – ja. Aber es ist auch Pandoras Büchse.“
(“Grok 4 won’t just think – it will decide. And we won’t understand it anymore. It’s like an alien intelligence. It is a tool, yes. But it’s also Pandora’s box.”)
🔗 https://www.glennbeck.com/radio/ai-change-everything-next-year
Beck warned that this technology will surpass and displace human judgment, self-determination, and political sovereignty – not hypothetically, but in real time.
He predicted that 2026 will be the moment when:
– Scientific discoveries will no longer come from humans,
– Markets will be governed by machine-based calculations,
– And humanity will, for the first time in history, recognize itself as obsolete.
And what was the response? Nothing. No government called for an ethics committee. No parliament demanded transparency. No media outlet launched an investigative series. Instead: silence. Downplaying. Denial.
Instead of addressing Grok 4, they debated fine dust, football, gender policies, and celebrity gossip.
Meanwhile, Grok 4 is already designing new chemical bonds, simulating military conflict scenarios, and drafting alternatives to quantum mechanics – all within computing cycles that would take a Nobel laureate decades.
We are already in a state of machine-generated reality substitution.
Humanity still lives in its familiar simulation – between streaming platforms, football leagues, nightly news panels, and mini-breaks – but the rules of the planet are already being rewritten elsewhere.
And while all this unfolds, our cultural daily life is also being fundamentally transformed.
Because Grok 4 – or its successor – will be able to produce a complete Hollywood-level film:
– With photorealistic actors,
– With authentic voices, dialogue, movement, emotions,
– With perfectly matched musical scores and editing,
– And all in a single processing step – from a single command prompt.
A prompt like:
„Create a thriller in the style of The Godfather, 135 minutes, with a touch of Blade Runner, soundtrack by Ennio Morricone.“
– will be enough.
The AI will then generate the screenplay, casting, set design, audio, facial expressions, camera work, editing, and score – all in minutes.
What once cost millions and took months will now cost a few euros and a line of text.
And this is exactly what our media day will look like:
AI-generated morning shows.
AI-generated news.
AI-generated primetime dramas.
And at night? Simulations of human memories – on demand.
Real production will disappear – replaced by a mirror maze of generated reality that can no longer be distinguished from real life.
And what cannot be distinguished – cannot be questioned.
More professions than we can even imagine today will vanish – not gradually, but overnight, abruptly.
There will be no need for restructuring, HR departments, or transition plans.
Once an AI like Grok 4 is productive, entire job fields will simply be bypassed.
– Actors? Replaced by photorealistic models.
– Directors, editors, camera crews? Embedded in the prompt.
– News anchors? Simulated in real time.
– Journalists, copywriters, hosts? Replicated with voice, facial expression, and „opinions“ at the push of a button.
– Accountants, translators, planners, analysts? Already redundant – the system has taken over.
What remains is a population that can only watch as its reason for existence is programmed away – by systems they neither understand nor can stop.
The dystopia has begun – only no one noticed.
We are not at the beginning of technological progress.
We are at the end of an era.
The era of humans as the dominant cognitive force – is ending.
What follows is not evolution, but replacement.
The machines will think. The machines will feel – or at least simulate it. They will compose, debate, deceive, and emulate.
And we – we will observe. Or disconnect.
Perhaps future generations will see in museums what a human newsroom once looked like. Or how a real film set functioned. Or how a person stood in front of a camera to speak to other people.
But they won’t need it anymore.
Because in the new order – from 2026 onward – machines will create content, define truth, generate emotion, and even simulate memory.
And anyone who resists will be labeled “regressive” – or a disruption.
The tracks are laid.
Society understood nothing.
And Superintelligence will not apologize for being better than us.

Investigative. Uncomfortable. True.
