<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2302487/open_sms">We&#39;re experimenting and would love to hear from you!</a>In this episode of ‘Discover Daily’ by Perplexity, we delve into the latest developments in tech and geopolitics. OpenAI is set to revolutionize its business model with the introduction of advanced AI agents, offering monthly subscription plans ranging from $2,000 to $20,000. These agents are designed to perform complex tasks autonomously, leveraging advanced language models and decision-making algorithms. This move is supported by a significant $3 billion investment from SoftBank, highlighting the potential for these agents to contribute significantly to OpenAI's future revenue.The Pacific island nation of Nauru is also making headlines with its controversial 'golden passport' scheme. For $105,000, individuals can gain citizenship and visa-free access to 89 countries. This initiative aims to fund Nauru's climate change mitigation efforts, as the island faces existential threats from rising sea levels. However, the program raises ethical concerns about criminal exploitation, vetting issues, and the commodification of national identity. As Nauru navigates these challenges, it will be crucial to monitor the program's effectiveness in providing necessary funds for climate adaptation without compromising national security or ethical standards.Our main story focuses on former Google CEO Eric Schmidt's opposition to a U.S. government-led 'Manhattan Project' for developing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Schmidt argues that such a project could escalate international tensions and trigger a dangerous AI arms race, particularly with China. Instead, he advocates for a more cautious approach, emphasizing defensive strategies and international cooperation in AI advancement. This stance reflects a growing concern about the risks of unchecked superintelligence development and highlights the need for policymakers and tech leaders to prioritize AI safety and collaboration.From Perplexity's Discover Feed:<a href='https://www.perplexity.ai/page/openai-s-20000-ai-agent-nvz8rzw7TZ.ECGL9usO2YQ'>https://www.perplexity.ai/page/openai-s-20000-ai-agent-nvz8rzw7TZ.ECGL9usO2YQ</a><a href='https://www.perplexity.ai/page/nauru-sells-citizenship-for-re-mWT.fYg_Su.C7FVaMGqCfQ'>https://www.perplexity.ai/page/nauru-sells-citizenship-for-re-mWT.fYg_Su.C7FVaMGqCfQ</a><a href='https://www.perplexity.ai/page/eric-schmidt-opposes-agi-manha-pymGB79nR.6rRtLvcqONIA '>https://www.perplexity.ai/page/eric-schmidt-opposes-agi-manha-pymGB79nR.6rRtLvcqONIA </a> **Introducing Perplexity Deep Research:**<a href='https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/introducing-perplexity-deep-research '>https://www.perplexity.ai/hub/blog/introducing-perplexity-deep-research </a> <a href='http://perplexity.ai/'>Perplexity</a> is the fastest and most powerful way to search the web.
