THE SHORT ANSWER

A dated card listing four Chevlume predictions to be checked on 1 January 2030.

What happened?

Chevlume is making four predictions. Target date for all four: 1 January 2030.

  1. Prediction: your first AI coworker will have a name and a login.
  2. Prediction: humanoids win warehouses before homes.
  3. Prediction: power deals become bigger news than model launches.
  4. Prediction: your phone runs a capable model offline.

Why does it matter?

These are our calls, not facts. We date them so we can be held to them, and on 1 January 2030 we will mark each one as right, wrong or partly right, in public.

Two facts behind our thinking:

  • Fact: Tesla started production of its Optimus humanoid at its Fremont factory in October 2026. Elon Musk said the robot still needs “quite a lot of work” to be useful for open-ended tasks.
  • Fact: on 6 October 2026, Google signed a 20-year deal for 890 MW of new nuclear capacity from Constellation, with the first megawatts expected by 2028.

What should you watch next?

→ Where humanoid robots are deployed first.

→ How much attention power deals get compared with model launches.

Quote this with your own predictions.
