TLDR Highlights The Shift The "Honeymoon" is officially over. Enterprise FOMO has been replaced by scrutiny on ROI, and the "magic" of 2023 has faded into disillusionment. The Threat OpenAI is being strangled from both sides. Google dominates infrastructure (50% cheaper costs) and distribution (the Apple deal), while Anthropic has stolen 54% of the developer market.The Tech Gap The "God Model" era is dead. Google Gemini 3 leads in science/multimodality , Claude Opus leads in coding , leaving GPT-5.1 squeezed in the "good enough" middle.The Money Pit With a $14B annual burn rate and $250B in debt obligations to Microsoft,

TLDR Highlights The Split The consensus is broken. While Google and OpenAI build a singular god like AGI behind a paywall Meta has pivoted.

This is not a pilot project. It is a scaled rollout of a paradigm shift where "algorithmic enforcement" supplements human authority.The Machine The Walker S2 is built for resilience and persistence. Standing at 1.76m, it is designed for psychological parity, meaning it looks civilians in the eye to establish who is in charge. Unlike competitors that need hours to charge, the S2 can hot swap its own battery in three
