While this ‘technology sovereignty’ or #digitalsovereignty push is largely fueled by political uncertainty, it should become part of every org’s risk mitigation, diversification, and biz value assessment. The FAANG oligopoly is constituting a true sourcing/ops risk challenge.

Data underscores criticality of social and #softskills in the age of #AI. ‘ …now more than ever our economy rewards broad skillsets: team players, problem solvers, good communicators and creative thinkers.’
Counter to the prevailing view, soft skills more than quantitative competency have seen the biggest rewards in the labour market over recent years, writes John Burn-Murdoch. ft.trib.al/Kf3UYah

In addition to possibly being executive overreach, to counter China’s emerging lead in the global AI race, this may backfire and undermine #ResponsibleAI in the long-term. The #Magnificent7 may consider this ROI for cozying up to the Trump Administration but it may be short-lived
Breaking news: The Trump administration is drafting an executive order that would direct the Justice Department to sue states that pass laws regulating artificial intelligence, according to a copy reviewed by The Post. wapo.st/4i9CNYI

“…market correction of the same magnitude as the dotcom crash could wipe out over $20trn in wealth for American households, equivalent to roughly 70% of American GDP…global fallout …Foreign investors could face wealth losses exceeding $15trn, or about 20% of the world’s GDP
“Though technological innovation is undeniably reshaping industries and increasing productivity, there are good reasons to worry that the current rally may be setting the stage for another painful market correction,” writes @GitaGopinath in a guest essay economist.com/by-invitation/…

#DeepSeek economics, if confirmed, are compelling but the new frontrunner of AI tools comes at a price and with its own human made limitations: We tried out DeepSeek. It works well, until we asked it about Tiananmen Square and Taiwan theguardian.com/technology/2…

AI is now (more) officially a capability on the world’s battlefields. While standards & players are different, the idea to use emerging capabilities deliberately & before they are perfect applies to the corporate & consumer world as well. #AI #MVP #innovate
The White House's AI messaging clarifies what's fair game — and what's out of bounds. A lack of guidance actually stifled innovation. "We could have the best team but lose because we didn't put it on the field." @axios axios.com/newsletters/axios-…
