3 predictions for the alternative assets market in 2026 I spent the last week analyzing every major development across watches, sneakers, trading cards, fashion resale, and Web3. Here's what I think is coming ↓

If this hit — repost tweet 1 so someone in your circle sees it before it’s too late. Full essay by @mattshumer_:

I’m not posting this to scare you. I’m posting because I give AF. The people who adapt early WIN. Every time. The ones who push back and wait are the ones scrambling later. I told you last week. Shumer just told 20M people. Stop sleeping. 🔥

The flip side? This is the greatest opportunity of our lifetime. Want to build an app? Describe it, have a prototype done in an hour. Want to learn anything? Best tutor ever is $20/mo. Got a dream you’ve been sitting on? The barriers just evaporated. GO BUILD.

What do you actually DO? Stop treating AI like Google. Pay $20/mo for the real models. Push it into your ACTUAL work, not quick questions. Spend 1hr a day experimenting. Every day. 6 months. You’ll be ahead of 99% of people around you. The bar is on the floor.

“But my job is safe.” No. It’s not. Legal. Finance. Medicine. Writing. Design. Engineering. If your job happens on a screen, AI is coming for it. Not in a decade. 1-5 years. The CEO of Anthropic said 50% of entry-level white collar jobs. Insiders say that’s conservative.

OpenAI confirmed GPT-5.3 Codex HELPED BUILD ITSELF. Wrote its own code. Debugged its own training. Diagnosed its own tests. Each generation builds the next one smarter. Faster. This isn’t a prediction. It’s already happening.

The part that shook me? These models don’t just follow instructions anymore. They make DECISIONS. They have something that feels like judgment. Like taste. If you haven’t touched these tools in the last 60 days you literally do not know what you’re talking about.

2022 — AI couldn’t do basic math. 2023 — Passed the bar exam. 2024 — Wrote working software. 2025 — Top engineers handed their coding to AI. Feb 2026 — New models dropped that made everything before feel like a toy. That’s not hype. That’s a trajectory.

And when I posted about it? The pushback came fast. “You’re overhyping it.” “AI still makes mistakes.” “It can’t replace real expertise.” Same energy as Feb 2020: “It’s just the flu.” The people not paying attention are always the loudest.

I’m not some guy who just discovered ChatGPT. I’ve watched every iteration. Every model drop. Every jump. So when I tell you last week was DIFFERENT, that it wasn’t an upgrade, it was a paradigm shift, understand where that’s coming from.

I’ve used AI every single day for almost 5 years. Not casually. In every aspect of my life and business. Last week, for the first time in all those years, I had a genuine “wtf” moment. Two models dropped on the same day. The game changed overnight.

I said this last week and got pushback. “AI is about to change everything.” People said I was exaggerating. Drinking the Kool-Aid. @mattshumer_ just dropped a post that hit 20M+ views in 24hrs saying the EXACT same thing. Let me break it down 🧵

35 degrees in Miami is wild…

As someone who doesn’t favor roller coasters, it’s kinda ironic that I chose to ride an emotional one everyday called entrepreneurship…
