"AI isn’t Magical Pixie Dust!" I’m thrilled to bring you this conversation with two of the most influential voices in national security. It’s one of the most compelling (and unfiltered) discussions I’ve had on how AI is actually being used in the real world of combat. – Dr.

Europe’s Cloud Infrastructure Dependency on US Risks
By
–
Don’t think that exactly what’s happening. All of Europe is dependant on US infra because they can’t build it themselves. It’s not meant to be a partisan statement. Already 80% dependant on US cloud, that affects vital industries, like defence for instance.

US Tech Infrastructure as Global Economic and Political Influence
By
–
Sure. That's why US infrastructure as integral to the global economy is so important as projection of influence. What was the essence of the trips of Big Tech and Admin to both the Gulf a few months ago as well as to the UK last week? To sign bumper deals to do exactly that.

US Technology as Strategic Tool for Global Influence
By

It's pretty clear what happened, isn't it? We moved from an Admin that fundamental distrusted technology to one that wants to build and export the full-stack of American technology as a projection and pillar of US influence globally. This is explicit policy as evinced from the

China’s Manufacturing Ecosystem Leapfrogs Western Technology
By
–
It’s time to disabuse ourselves of the incredibly outdated notion that China makes cheap stuff while the West makes the things that matter. In fact, China’s world-leading industrial and manufacturing ecosystem means that it is not only catching up but also leapfrogging the West

China Pursues Chip Sovereignty for AI Infrastructure Independence
By
–

AI Transforms Industry: The Commodification of Intelligence
By
–
AI Runs on Industry — and Industry’s Future Runs on AI In my thesis 'Industrial Intelligence', I argue that turning “intelligence” into a commodity — putting AI into everything — is one of the largest industrial undertakings of our time. It’s not just about clever algorithms.

Building AI at Scale: Energy and Resources Infrastructure
By

Brasilia for less than 24 hours… what a fascinating city. My message was that creating ‘intelligence’ as a commodity is a major industrial undertaking. When you look at the whole ‘stack’ that is required to make AI a cheap and abundant resource at scale – energy and rare earth

AI Wars Shape Winners and Losers of Next Economy
By

The AI wars are here — and they’ll decide the winners and losers of the next economy. Speaking at @Oz_Forensics in Brasília and ANADIM in Cancun last week, my focus was on a truth that cuts across industries and borders: AI is no longer just a technology story — 𝗶𝘁’𝘀 𝗮

Y Combinator: Technical Skills Trump Credentials in AI Era
By
–
I thought the recent Y Combinator advice for techies in the AI era was sage! True, deep technical skill counts more than anything if you are building – but also, don’t just focus on getting credentials rather than actually building. The new generation of companies are scaling up
