AI becomes the floor, thinking without it is the new advantage
By
–
Everyone now has access to AI. The tool is no longer an advantage: it has become the floor. And as equipment levels out, the differentiator shifts: it will not be in the ability to use these tools, but in that of thinking without them when the stakes

AI Triggers Parallel Crises: Social Anger and Financial Anxiety
By
–
L’IA déclenche désormais deux mouvements parallèles : la colère populaire et l’angoisse financière. D’un côté, des cocktails Molotov, des conférences sifflées, 120 000 emplois détruits, et seulement 18% de la génération Z qui y voit un espoir. De l’autre, 750 milliards

Combat robots replace human soldiers on modern battlefields
By

We will no longer accept sending 20-year-old kids to get slaughtered on a battlefield. It will be politically, morally, and electorally unacceptable. In the age of combat robots, autonomous drones, and mini-tracked vehicles packed with explosives. Ukraine is proving it: 9,000
