A big Congratulations to @shakira and her concert on the beach of Rio…
It made me reminisce on the time when me and my best friends @blackeyedpeas played the same beach…

Brazil knows how to party…
wow wow wow…
And Shakira‘s show was amazing…

I made this remix after watching clips from Shakira’s show on line…

It reminded my on how much I miss and LOVE BRAZIL…

This remix is called:

“a girl like - hey mama”

🎤 This week on will.i.am (@iamwill) Presents: The FYI Show 🧠✨

We’re taking the conversation global — straight from Cambridge University — where Will sat with students to explore a powerful question:

How do we help young people understand they already have a seat at the table?

Not someday.
Not when they’re “qualified enough.”
Now.

At FYI, we believe access to creativity, technology, and opportunity shouldn’t be gatekept — it should be shared.
AI as a bridge, not a barrier. A tool that helps kids dream, build, and speak up like they belong in every room they enter.

This week’s talk dives into empowerment, education, and what it really takes to prepare the next generation for the future of creativity and tech.

Tune in tonight at 6pm PST on @siriusxm @the10sspot.

Before we build with AI, we have to define our intentions.

will.i.am reflects on the importance of checking our values and creating with human connection at the center, not just building for another digital platform.

Technology should bring us closer to understanding, empathy, and community, not further away from it.

The real question isn’t just what AI can do.It’s why we’re using it in the first place.

Grab your team, start a project in FYI, and define your intentions.

Comment IDEAS to join the movement.

@iamwill imagined FYI.AI after noticing how scattered the creative process had become across too many tools.

He started asking simple questions: why can’t you send large files through a messenger? Why are ideas, conversations, and assets all living in different places?

FYI is a messenger with generative AI at its core, where you can bring your ideas, conversations, and collaborators into one place, and build AI agents that reflect how you think, your tone, and your workflow—helping you brainstorm, create, and move projects forward in real time.

A better way to create and communicate.

AI is bigger than entertainment.

Making songs with AI is fun.
It’s cool.
But that’s only a fraction of what’s possible.

@iamwill reframes what this moment really is. There are still countless problems in the world waiting to be solved and AI should be part of that mission.

AI doesn’t just create content.
It can create solutions.

Will breaks down how we risk thinking too small when we use powerful tools only for novelty, while bigger opportunities sit untouched.

Because the future won’t be defined by what AI can imitate.

It will be defined by what humans choose to solve with it.

Think bigger.
Build smarter.

Pillar Six, Part Two. The Contract.

You and your agent. And the world around it.

Now make it official.

What is it for.
What will it never do.
What do you promise in return.

Purpose.
Boundaries.
Accountability.

Your agent should protect your time.

Amplify your creativity.

Serve your values.

It must never deceive.
Never manipulate.
Never share what you did not approve.

And you cannot step away from responsibility.

You review it.
You correct it.
You stay in control.

This is the moment it stops being a tool.

And starts becoming a responsibility.

🎤 This week on will.i.am (@iamwill) Presents: The FYI Show 🧠✨

Welcome back to The LAB! In the final episode of season one, @iamwill is joined by his fellow members of the Black Eyed Peas for a full circle moment.

Beyond the conversation, this episode is about legacy, evolution, and what it means to continue creating at the highest level while the world and technology keep shifting.

It’s a reminder that while tools evolve, the core stays the same, creativity, chemistry, and the human connection that makes the work timeless.

This is The LAB, where culture, creativity, and innovation push each other forward.

Season one finale is live now on the FYI YouTube channel. Link in bio.

Tune in tonight at 6pm PST only on @siriusxm @the10sspot

AI isn’t the wave on its own.

It’s humans with AI.

@iamwill reframes what this moment really is. It’s not about replacing people… it’s about extending them.

AI doesn’t lead.
It amplifies.

Will breaks down how the real shift is in building agents that work alongside you, tools shaped by your thinking, your workflow, and your point of view.

Because the future won’t be defined by AI alone.

It will be defined by the people who know how to use it.

Build with intention.
Stay human.

This week, FYI showed up at ASU+GSV Summit in San Diego with will.i.am — where education meets what’s next.

After launching EDU.FYI and building The Agentic Self course, we connected with universities, professors, and students from around the world — all asking the same question:

What does learning look like now?
Not later. Now.

The answer isn’t static.
It’s collaborative. It’s creative. It’s evolving in real time.
This is your reminder: learning doesn’t stop when school does.

It scales with you.

Pillar Six, Part One. Reflection.

You built the agent.

Now look at what it changed.
Your work.
Your values.
Your future.

What feels lighter now?

What feels sharper now?

What feels more possible, or more risky?

If nothing changed, it’s still a toy.
If something changed, name it.

By the end, answer three things.
- How has this agent changed my life?
- What risk do I see more clearly now?
- What will I refuse to hand over?

This is where the human returns to the center. Not to do more.

To choose better 💖
