I met with Naval Group's VP of sales, Europe and North America, for a brief update on the Lulea-class frigate program 🇫🇷🇸🇪
🏗️ The French shipbuilder is very confident they will deliver the first ship in 2030
🚀 I learned the SAM configuration for the "Swedish FDI" consists in 24x Aster 30 + 24x CAMM-ER (cold launched from a new launcher developed in-house by Naval Group)
🇸🇪 Swedish weapon systems include Bofors 57mm and 40mm guns, RBS15 (Robotsystem 15) ASM and Torped 47 / SLWT (Saab's Lightweight Torpedo)
Stay tuned for the video coverage...

[Mileage impossible @Mileage_impo]

What happens when engineering perfection meets lifelong dedication?

You get Gregorios Sachinidis, the Greek taxi driver who took his 1976 Mercedes-Benz 240D on a journey that shocked the automotive world. Covering over 4,600,000 km (2,858,307 miles), which is equivalent to circling Earth more than 115 times, all without ever swapping the original engine.

After 23 years of flawless service, Mercedes didn’t just take notice they offered him a brand-new car in return for the record-setting vehicle, which now sits proudly in the Mercedes-Benz Museum.

🚨 UPDATE: @DeptofWar just designated Cirrus Aircraft an official Chinese military company, and as of June 30, Cirrus is prohibited from receiving Pentagon contracts.

Two weeks ago I wrote about how the most delivered piston aircraft manufacturer in America has been owned by the CCP's primary defense conglomerate since 2011. Glad to see it finally called out!

Die Siri/EU-Thematik ist noch absurder, als man vermutet hätte.

Es geht darum, dass Apple in der EU nicht starten kann, weil der DMA so ausgelegt wird, dass dann auch alle andere KI-Assistenten tief ins System dürfen müssten.

Und „tief ins System“ heißt hier:

Zugriff auf private Daten, Steuerung installierter Apps, Nachrichten lesen und senden, Dateien öffnen, Käufe auslösen, Aktionen in beliebigen Apps ausführen.

Apple hatte dafür wohl einen „Trusted System Agent“ vorgeschlagen: eine Art Sicherheits-Mittler, damit Drittanbieter-Assistenten Fähigkeiten bekommen, ohne direkt alles aufzureißen. Die EU hat das laut Apple abgelehnt.

Regulatorisches Produktdesign mit der Brechstange.

[Daniel Nylén @newsoft75]

Fy fan. 😩

[Dr. Lars Henrik Andersen 🇪🇺 @EUAITaxonomy]

The Siri/EU situation is a regulatory masterpiece.

Apple cannot launch Apple Intelligence in the EU.

Why? Because under the DMA, if Siri gets deep system access, every other AI assistant must get the exact same. Anything less would be unfair competition. A gatekeeper privileging its own service.

So either Siri ships and every Shenzhen startup, Cyprus shell company, and nephew hackathon project gets identical root access to 450 million Europeans’ digital lives or nothing ships.

Apple proposed a “Trusted System Agent”: a security intermediary so third-party assistants get capabilities without ripping the phone wide open.

The EU rejected it.

Magnificent.

Apple’s response: fine, then no developer APIs either. No Apple Intelligence, no third-party integrations, no foundation model access for EU developers. The entire layer simply does not exist on this continent.

Excellent.

This is the path. Why depend on American AI when we can build the entire stack ourselves? A European foundation model, trained on a European GPU cluster, running on a European OS, on a European phone, manufactured in a European fab, powered by European nuclear plants we have spent fifteen years closing.

Estimated time to ship: 2047.

Estimated cost: the GDP of three member states.

Estimated outcome: a chatbot that requires a cookie banner before each response.

Worth it.

In the meantime, European users are protected from Apple processing data Apple already holds by ensuring nobody processes anything at all.

Not a bug. The intended outcome.

Regulatory product design with a sledgehammer, swung with precision.

Tänka sig att vår europeiska förkärlek till att reglera folks vardag till slut skulle komma att orsaka problem med den fria världen.

Oväntat att en före detta Ericsson-ingenjör(?) tycker så här.

[CTO Larsson @ctoLarsson]

Amazing work protecting EU citizens from the new iPhone and macOS AI features.

Huge thanks to the teams behind
EU AI Act
EU Digital Markets Act
EU Digital Services Act

When Apple can’t or won’t comply, no start-up can either, and EU citizens will remain truly protected.

By being less productive, and thereby less successful, EU citizens can focus on what truly matters - compliance and leading through regulation.

When will we have cookie popups on every app start-up? I feel unsafe. Unprotected. When!??

This is literally a "Flaming datum" of the collapse of Russian ground based air defenses.

There are not enough Russian radars left to detect a well planned low level jet fighter attack

[Donny Wals 👾 @DonnyWals]

Really disappointed that, as a developer in the EU, there's now an entire suite of features and capabilities I can't support for users of my apps... Instead of building a level playing field, this basically makes it harder for EU-based dev to build cutting-edge apps.

Well done, @EU_Commission

Apple m'a invité à une session sur le DMA et le blocage de Siri AI dans l'UE aujourd'hui, avec d'autres journalistes européens.

C'est à lire sur Numerama : https://t.co/GG0IqiK7ak

En gros : Apple a prévenu l'Europe dès fin 2025 de son projet SIri AI pour trouver un compromis. La marque voulait proposer un système appelé « Trusted System Agent » pour permettre à un assistant tiers d’accéder aux mêmes fonctions que Siri AI, mais avec les protections d’Apple. L'Europe aurait dit non : elle veut que les concurrents aient accès à toutes les données.

Apple dit que n'importe quelle app pourrait utiliser une IA pour lire les messages et les mails de ses utilisateurs si aucun garde-fou n'est proposé, d'où sa volonté de s'opposer frontalement à la demande de l'Europe. Google est dans la même situation avec Gemini et commence à se plaindre des demandes européennes, même si lui n'a pas attendu un feu vert pour lancer ses nouveautés.

Apple n'a aujourd'hui pas la moindre idée de comment faire accepter Siri AI en Europe : aucun développement n'est en cours. Le blocage pourrait durer des mois.

J'ai contacté la Commission européenne et je mettrai à jour cet article avec sa réponse.

Dernière info : Siri AI sera disponible sur Mac et Vision Pro en Europe, car ce ne sont pas des gatekeepers. iPhone et iPad bloqués par le DMA. Apple Watch bloqué car elle a besoin d'un iPhone compatible pour l'index sémantique. #WWDC26

Inte nog med det. Fortsätter vi på inslagen väg kommer vi att tvingas till europeiska särlösningar vad gäller all teknik. Glöm teslor, iPhone, Google och X. EU blir det nya Festung Europa. 😒
