AI in 2025: Between Promise, Power, and the People

Sydney Armani, May 7, 2025May 7, 2025

In 2025, we don’t just witness the world—we scroll past it. A child cries on camera. A protest erupts. A mother begs for help to save her son’s life. And we? We double-tap, comment “sending love,” maybe even share. But all too often, we keep scrolling. This is the Bystander Effect 2.0: amplified, algorithmically optimized, and emotionally numbed.

AI Companions: The Rise of Emotional Intelligence in Artificial Agents

Homi Makoui, May 5, 2025May 5, 2025

In the age of artificial intelligence, we’ve grown used to a certain kind of machine intelligence—one that calculates faster than any human, predicts outcomes based on oceans of data, and automates everything from scheduling to driving. It’s impressive, efficient, and incredibly useful. But something remarkable is happening in 2025 that feels different. AI is now stepping into a domain we once thought was uniquely human: emotion. the most profound transformation may not be in how AI understands us—but in how it helps us understand ourselves.

AI and Serendipity: When Machines Help Us Discover the Unexpected

Homi Makoui, May 5, 2025May 7, 2025

The Paradox of Predictability

The core mission of AI is to reduce uncertainty. It’s a tool of control, built to forecast weather, detect disease, or recommend your next binge-worthy series. At its best, AI is an engine of efficiency. At its worst, it’s a filter bubble—predicting what we’ll like based on what we’ve already liked, narrowing our worldview.

Serendipity, by contrast, rewards openness, novelty, and even error. Some of humanity’s greatest breakthroughs were unplanned: penicillin, microwave ovens, Post-it Notes, even Velcro.
