Fantastic. That's the way to go.
Good call on #AIRegulation.

For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter.

AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.

Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty.

The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models.

Heavy downpours overwhelming cities across West Africa this week, costing lives and livelihoods. More than local fixes R needed; coordinated international framework for coastal defense + resilient urban planning R needed. 🌊🇨🇮🇬🇭🇹🇬🇳🇬 #ClimateChange #WestAfrica #Ecowas

@Peston - Definitely.
This presidency would however be worth studying in International Relations curriculum now, and for the next generations.

There is literally no boundary this American president will not bulldoze through

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

I stand with my brother in Christ, His Holiness Pope Leo XIV, in his courageous call for a kingdom of peace.

As I prepare to visit Rome later this month to meet and pray with Pope Leo, I am mindful of his call to keep our eyes open to the suffering of the world, and our gaze fixed on our crucified and risen Lord Jesus Christ – the image of the invisible God, in whose image and likeness every human being is made. In him, we recognise that we are children of the one Father and members of a single human family. Prayer is not an escape from the world, nor a turning away from injustice; rather, it is a turning towards God in the midst of it, confronting evil, seeking God’s will, and becoming instruments of transformation and peace.

After the COVID-19 pandemic and the Developments in Ukraine,
Y2025, Y2026: Probably some other significant years in #Geopolitics since Y2008. Multipolar Competition under all forms and shapes.
(U.S.–China rivalry, Russia-West confrontation, Global South assertiveness).

President Trump and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa exchange on genocide.

Q: "What will it take for you to be convinced that there's no white genocide in South Africa?"

Ramaphosa: "I can answer that for the president."

Trump: "I'd rather have him answer."

@edithbrou That was genius.

🌍 In an era of complex crises, multilateral #diplomacy isn’t just an option—it’s a necessity. From climate action to security, collective power is our best hope. Nations must step beyond self-interest if we’re to build a resilient, peaceful future.

[Lawrence Ngorand @CardonLawrence]

In a world of rising tensions, #multilateralism isn't just an option, it's a necessity. Can we bridge the divides before it's too late?
