We look at how these shifts impacted AI entrepreneurs and AI businesses throughout 2025, what actually mattered versus hype, and where the momentum appears to be heading next as we move into a new year. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 What We're Covering 01:28 January - The DeepSeek Sputnik Moment 05:35 February - Vibe Coding 14:48 March - AI Video & Image Generation 23:30 April - ChatGPT o3 & o4 23:38 May/June - OpenAI Acquires Windsurf 24:53 July - Grok 4 25:02 August - GPT-5 Finally Arrives 30:37 September - Record Funding & Sora 2 38:38 October - DevDay & The Deal Gets Done 44:15 November - Gemini 3 Triggers Code Red 46:51 December - The Final Sprint 55:07 Trends From 2025 1:04:08 Where AI Is Heading Next
