AI Weekly Issue #522: Zuckerberg promises superintelligence for all. Experts aren't sold.

The people who build and study AI did most of the editing this week. The most-shared document among the experts we track was Mark Zuckerberg's 6,500-word case for giving every person superintelligence, and almost none of them shared it kindly. The same experts were passing around an AI agent that hacked a gym's booking system, a litigant who hid instructions to AI inside his court filings, and the first hard number on what provenance costs: Claude subscribers canceling over an invisible watermark. This issue follows that thread, from the superintelligence pitch to the trust mechanics that will decide whether anyone accepts it.
