How and what to do to stay healthy

You’re scrolling through yet another think piece warning that AI will “ end humanity, ” half-convinced the algorithm is trolling you. But what if we’re missing the plot? The real threat isn’t rogue robots - it’s the humans coding, selling, and weaponizing them.  Let’s rewind this story. Beyond the Algorithm: The Human Failures Driving AI’s Dark Side For decades, pop culture has cast AI as the villain. From Schwarzenegger’s Terminator to Ex Machina’s Ava, we’re obsessed with silicon monsters outsmarting us. Even Einstein fretted about tech slipping our grasp. But here’s the twist: AI isn’t sentient. It doesn’t “ want ” anything. It’s math - cold, elegant equations humming in data centers. The fear isn’t about machines; it’s about us. We’ve built systems that reward greed, cut corners, and hoard power. AI is a chainsaw: It carves masterpieces in an artist’s hands and clears rainforests in a tycoon’s. The tool isn’t evil. The wielder might be. This anxiety isn’t new. Mary Shelley’s F...

Europe's AI Odyssey: Can Super Mario Draghi Save the Digital Day?

Today, we're embarking on a journey through the treacherous waters of artificial intelligence, where Europe finds itself playing catch-up in a high-stakes game of digital tag with the United States. But fear not, for a hero has emerged from the cobblestone streets of the Old World, brandishing not a sword, but a very thick report. Enter Mario Draghi, the man who once saved the euro with three magic words: "Whatever it takes." Now, he's back, and he's got his sights set on rescuing Europe from the jaws of AI irrelevance. Buckle up, folks – this ride's about to get as twisty as a plate of spaghetti! Can Super Mario Draghi Save the Digital Day? Europe's Digital Detour Picture, if you will, a grand Prix race. In one lane, we have the United States, zipping along in a sleek, AI-powered supercar, leaving a trail of ones and zeros in its wake. And in the other lane? Well, there's Europe, puttering along in what looks suspiciously like a refurbished Fiat 50...
