Tech & InnovationXi and Trump Seek Safe AI Without Slowing the Race for Supremacy
When both Washington and Beijing frame AI safety as something that cannot slow ‘supremacy,’ you should assume continued acceleration in capability development alongside uneven guardrails. For operators, that means more geopolitical volatility around chips, models, and data flows—build redundancy into suppliers and hosting now.
Tech & InnovationChinese CEOs Unlikely to Join Xi at Trump Summit
If major Chinese tech CEOs are absent from a Trump–Xi summit, expect more policy made without direct industry choreography and more surprise moves on both regulation and export controls. Multinationals exposed to China–US tech flows should not bank on backchannel corporate diplomacy smoothing the next round of shocks.
Tech & InnovationThe EU will force data centers to disclose how much water and energy they are using
