📌 China aims to dominate global AI in the energy sector by 2030, with plans to deploy at least 5 specialized AI models, 100 practical applications, and a dedicated AI innovation ecosystem. The “AI Plus” strategy shows an all-out effort from the government to integrate AI into energy infrastructure, boosting forecasting, smart maintenance, and production optimization – especially in complex areas like nuclear, hydropower, and renewable energy. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) will integrate AI and robotics into the 15th Five-Year Plan (2026–2030).

📌 Greece has just signed a partnership agreement with OpenAI to bring ChatGPT Edu into schools, becoming a pioneer in applying AI in public education. Startups in health, climate, education, and the public sector will be supported with GPT-5 technology and AI credits. This deal helps Greece modernize education, foster innovation, and enhance the competitiveness of small businesses.

📌 Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, warns that AI could wipe out all entry-level office jobs in 1–5 years, pushing the unemployment rate up by 10–20%. He predicts AI will write 90% of software code in 6 months and nearly all of it within a year. While Nvidia and Microsoft disagree, Ford’s CEO concurs. The debate shows that AI is no longer a distant threat but an accelerating reality. The consensus is that AI is developing too quickly, far outpacing the preparedness of businesses, governments, and the workforce.

📌 China is accelerating its strategy to subsidize computing power for small and medium-sized enterprises, with Shanghai subsidizing up to 80% of AI rental costs with a budget of 600 million CNY (about $84.1 million). The program spans multiple provinces and cities, combined with a national computing network plan to leverage underutilized data centers in the west. This is a strategic move to expand domestic AI application but still faces questions about efficiency and long-term sustainability.

📌 Israel’s Horizon Line AI system has proven its ability to forecast global trends like pandemics, US-China competition, and geopolitical instability. Horizon Line consists of 4 parallel platforms, each processing a different domain: socio-political trends, future technologies, supply chains, and “mega-trends.” 8 core areas are monitored: ideology, climate, population, international relations, economy, society, technology, and geopolitics – all analyzed as an interconnected network, not in isolation. However, the October 7th terror attack shows that warnings are meaningless if the government fails to act.

📌Thailand is becoming an attractive destination for printed circuit board (PCB) manufacturers, especially in the AI supply chain, as many companies from China and Taiwan are rushing to open factories here. Victory Giant Technology (VGT), a key supplier to Nvidia, will order 100 new pieces of equipment to expand production in Thailand and Vietnam. Gold Circuit Electronics (GCE) – a supplier for Nvidia’s GPU switch trays – is also operating its first factory in Thailand at full capacity. The Thai government expects to make the country the world’s second-largest PCB manufacturing hub after China, with production value projected to increase…

📌Despite $30-40 billion being poured into generative AI, 95% of organizations have yet to reap the benefits, primarily due to outdated project management frameworks and a lack of data readiness. ARISE emerges as an AI-native tool to replace RICE, adding metrics for AI Desire, Capability, and Intent to ensure feasibility and real-world value. This helps businesses avoid common pitfalls, prioritize the right AI projects, and balance human augmentation with automation.

📌 OpenAI is accelerating its global infrastructure expansion with a 1 GW data center project in India, both to meet the 4x growth in ChatGPT users and to leverage favorable chip policies. This is part of the $500 billion Stargate strategy, alongside projects in Norway and Abu Dhabi. By collaborating with the $1.2 billion IndiaAI Mission, this move not only strengthens OpenAI’s position in Asia but also reflects the US-China-India geopolitical competition in AI. OpenAI has announced infrastructure plans in several countries: 520 MW in Norway, and 5 GW in Abu Dhabi (of which OpenAI will use 1 GW). Over…

📌 Google’s Nano Banana is sparking a wave of protest from artists worldwide as this AI tool can replicate works without permission, thereby threatening creative professions. Its ability to create sketches, interpret poses, and mimic individual styles has artists worried about being replaced. Amid cost-cutting and mass layoffs, Nano Banana is not just a tool – it is a symbol of technology’s encroachment on human creativity.

📌 Indian telecom giant Reliance has officially entered the AI sector with the establishment of a brand-new subsidiary: Reliance Intelligence. The new company launches with four strategic focuses, starting with an AI data center in Jamnagar and extensive collaboration with Google and Meta. Two new joint ventures worth $100 million promise to bring open-source AI closer to Indian businesses and people. Concurrently, Reliance is also pushing for a Jio IPO and investing $9 billion in clean energy, demonstrating its ambition to become a comprehensive and sustainable technology conglomerate.
