It’s that he’s created the perfect conditions for a czar with zero actual authority, reporting to a boss who thinks AI safety concerns are a “SICK conspiracy.” You can’t manage something you refuse to understand. You especially can’t manage it while actively dismissing the only people in the room who actually know how it works. And that’s not politics — that’s infrastructure failure in slow motion, and I should know, because I run 100+ devices on a single network and the moment you stop listening to your engineers is the moment you start eating shit. ...

Volodymyr Zelensky stood in the rubble of another Russian ballistic missile strike on Kyiv and said the quiet part out loud: Ukraine has no interceptors. Not “too few.” Not “critically low stocks.” No interceptors. One out of twenty-seven ballistic missiles got shot down in a single attack. Thirty-five missiles and one-eighty-five drones, two missiles intercepted. That’s a 5-6% success rate against the one weapon system Putin believes—correctly—can still win him this war. And here’s what nobody in Washington or Brussels wants to admit: this isn’t a production problem. It’s a choice problem, and the choice wasn’t made by Ukraine. ...

The Pope’s Got a Point, and That’s Absolutely Terrifying Right, so the Pope—bless him, lovely bloke, probably—has come out swinging at artificial intelligence like it’s a pinball machine in a church basement that won’t stop ringing. “Disarmed,” he says. DISARMED. As if AI is wandering around Vatican City with a concealed weapon, looking to nick the communion wine and the Pope’s fancy hat collection. And you know what? He’s actually onto something. Which is mad, because usually when the Catholic Church weighs in on modern technology, they’re still working through their feelings about the printing press. ...
