AI Warning Signs are There, How Can We Respond?

Three Mega-Trends for AI Companies — and the Warning Signs

1. Valuations far outpace performance
Many AI firms are being valued on future promise rather than current profits. For example, companies are raising massive rounds and getting sky-high valuations despite uncertain business models. 

In Yijing terms: this is Excessive Yang — the peak of expansion without the return of Yin (grounding).

In Art of War terms: it’s like advancing troops deep into enemy territory without solid supply lines — risky.

For SuperME: It means we must stay rooted in reality, not hype.

2. Massive investment & hype around generative AI infrastructure
Billions are being poured into chips, data centres, models — because there’s huge optimism. But there’s also a risk: what if the returns don’t follow? 

Yijing: This is a “wind before the storm” moment — the calm and surge before possible contraction.

Art of War: Building up the arsenal is good, but you need clarity on when and how to deploy it.

SuperME: We keep expanding tools, but also focus on inner agility — because the world outside can change quickly.

3. Regulatory, ethical and market dislocations catching up
As AI becomes pervasive, risks around compliance, disclosure, business sustainability are surfacing. 

Yijing: This is the shift when Yin creeps in — when the dominant Yang must yield or transform.

Art of War: The moment when terrain (regulation, market rules, public trust) becomes hostile.

SuperME: We adapt, stay ethical, increase our value beyond the tech — because the human part becomes the durable currency.

How Ordinary People Can Survive — and Thrive

Even if you’re not a top executive in an AI firm, you do have leverage and choice. These are the actionable steps:

1. Build your “inner infrastructure” (the SuperME way)
While AI might change what work gets done, it doesn’t change who you are.

Strengthen your purpose, your unique voice, your human judgment.

Yijing wisdom says: anchor in what is enduring (your character) rather than chasing what’s transient (the hype).

Art of War: Know yourself and know your terrain — you’ll walk safe steps and win smaller battles.

2. Focus on value-creation, not just consumption of tools
Many adopt AI just to catch up — but the bigger question is: What will you create?

Use AI with your unique human strengths (empathy, storytelling, ethics) — that will always stand out.

In Yijing language: move from shallow “form” to deep “substance”.

In Art of War: leverage the new terrain (AI) but deploy your distinct strategy.

3. Stay flexible, keep a long view, and hedge for disruption
Since the market may correct (and many analysts are warning that there is a bubble risk). 

SuperME mindset: Be ready to pivot, learn continuously, and not get over‐invested in any one “safe bet”.

Yijing: Everything cycles; knowing the cycle helps you move in rhythm rather than resist.

Art of War: Prepare for the unexpected — the best strategist thrives even in chaos.

🎯 Does Knowing SuperME Help?

Because as AI accelerates, the human essentials become more precious: character, creativity, compassion.

The SuperME framework isn’t elitist — it’s needed more than ever. You don’t need to be “perfect”, you just need to wake up to your higher self.

The help comes from self-mastery: training, reflection, aligning purpose+love+gratitude (PLG).

In the big picture from Yijing: when the external world speeds up (AI, change), your internal world must become more grounded.

Art of War: Your internal discipline and strategy become your defense and offense combined.

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

How I Became a Fortune Teller: Leveraging NLP, Fear and Greed, and Motivational Theories

Becoming a fortune teller wasn’t part of my childhood dreams. It started as an experiment, fueled by my curiosity about human behavior and the subtle forces that drive our decisions. Over time, what began as a study of psychology and human interaction evolved into an unexpected career—one where I use the tools of NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), the primal drivers of fear and greed, and motivational theories to help people uncover their paths. The First Step: Understanding the Human Psyche I was always fascinated by why people do what they do. During my university years, I studied psychology, particularly the works of Abraham Maslow, B.F. Skinner, and Victor Vroom. Their theories provided insights into motivation, reinforcement, and decision-making. But I wanted to move beyond the academic realm and see how these theories worked in real life. Around this time, I discovered NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming). This framework for understanding communication and behavior is based on the...
