Apple’s New M6 MacBook Pro Costs $1,999. Is It Worth Upgrading? https://t.co/AEdxbNsVhr

🚫 Sweden’s Government Offices blocked ChatGPT and Claude on work computers. @MSFTCopilot stays.

The restriction applies to the web versions of @openai's ChatGPT and @AnthropicAI's Claude, while Copilot remains approved for government employees.

This isn’t a blanket rejection of generative AI. Sweden is drawing a line around how employees access these tools and what protections sit around them.

What made Copilot acceptable?

@Starlink went down in Ukraine. What happens when your backup internet fails, too? 📡

A reported Starlink disruption in Ukraine is raising questions about how organizations maintain connectivity when critical services depend on a single provider.

A secondary connection should not depend on the same infrastructure or provider as the primary service. In addition, service restrictions and provider decisions can also affect availability.

Failover procedures, alternative connections, and employee communication plans should work before an emergency happens.

🤖 @AnthropicAI just handed over an AI standard already used by 70+ platforms.

Agent Skills is moving to the Linux Foundation’s Agentic AI Foundation, putting the standard under shared industry governance instead of Anthropic alone. ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot, Cursor and VS Code are among the platforms that already support it.

The goal is to make AI workflows easier to reuse across different tools instead of rebuilding them for every platform.

So how portable are these AI workflows really, and what should teams check before moving them between platforms?
