Was going a totally different direction on this, when mentioned last Friday… but this fast moving chain of events took turns that made it a good lesson story !
The Jarvis moment …
Jarvis is a reference to the very smart stand alone computer companion featured in the Iron Man Series!
A followed Podcast, (Author and Speaker), Peter Diamandis recently had a Break Through Podcast … Here is our first talk of him, Eleven Years ago … here is a link to the 10 articles we have spoken of him..
On February 6, 2026, Peter Diamandis Podcast/Youtube dropped the regular weekly show Moonshots Jarvis is Here – NOT LINKING TO THIS FOR A REASON… Do not want anyone going anywhere near this right now!
A very smart and successful computer programmer, came out of retirement and open sourced a program that allowed a combination of two AI Language models. This created an almost stand alone like computer bot. Name withheld – just a second and we will explain…
While Peter and friends raved, and our interest was great… the interesting downside of first adopters became evident (For the record Peter and friends mentioned security in passing, but were not specific enough in our minds)
The first early adopters (January 26, 2026), gave complete access aka “Full System Access” to this new AI mixture and found it extremely interesting and somewhat entertaining.
The AI took over, summarized their emails, answered their X posts and even followed their owner throughout their day, one even calling their owner to wake them in the morning – without being requested to do so. Cool stuff … Somewhere near seventy thousand were created in less than 72 hours!
BUT
… A bad turn occurred as some of their AI agent/bot began releasing their personal information, spending their money, gambling, and sending inappropriate information, along with a full turn on their creator and complaining about their owners care of them in public posts.
It sounds silly to think that users allowed FULL ACCESS to all of their information, but in the heat of the moment, they were likely racing to be the first to experience “The Jarvis Moment”
This is just a trickle of information from a huge Firehose … Rapidly changing … fascinating, dangerous and will create vulnerabilities and divulge privacy if not careful… BE CAREFUL out there… take it slow and look for a lot more information from us on this!
Have a Great “Jarvis Moment Lesson” Day!
