The central issue isn’t which nation will dominate AI. It’s whether we will both maintain human control over it. China and the United States are now competing for AI dominance. But what’s needed is a new mind-set about the meaning of “security” in the emerging world of AI — where the central question should not […]

Trump family firm partners with Chinese AI model provider as Washington presses allies to choose sides. A company partly owned by members of President Trump’s family is doing business with a Hong Kong-based provider of Chinese artificial intelligence models — even as the Trump administration prepares to urge dozens of countries to choose between the […]

Several developments reported today are worth considering together. China is beginning to move larger volumes of physical gold from London to Hong Kong. At the same time, Hong Kong has launched a centralized gold-clearing and settlement system, Delivery Connect with the Shanghai Gold Exchange, and plans to expand its storage capacity to roughly 2,000 metric […]

The Chinese stratagem works the other way around. While everyone is looking at the Persian Gulf and the blockaded Strait of Hormuz, I’ll try to carefully describe what’s happening further east, where the next step will be.

Trump’s might-makes-right lawlessness will be his downfall. If we’re not careful, it will be America’s as well. Trump’s domestic and foreign policies — ranging from his attempted coup against the United States in January 2021, to his ICE and Border Patrol excesses (including murders in Minnesota), to his incursion into Venezuela and abduction of its […]

On the third day of the US and Israel’s war against Iran, it can be confirmed that Washington did not plan a pinpoint strike in the “hit-and-run” scheme this time, but was oriented towards a campaign lasting several weeks. Consequently, the risks for Trump, his administration, and the Republican Party as a whole are potentially […]

Many reflections have been published on the prospects of BRICS, an organization that is still perceived ambiguously in the world. The founding organizers (2006) demonstrated that country-based associations of non-Western civilizations can exist in the world. Although this vessel is currently only a quarter filled with meaning, it exists. As a fact. As a factor […]

In Manchukuo, the Japanese were creating a completely new state that was theoretically independent, meaning that there were no restrictions on the policies the new state could pursue. Many university graduates in Japan, despite being opposed to the social system that existed in Japan itself, went to work in Manchukuo, believing that they could carry […]

At the very first BRICS meeting on October 22, the most acute conflict situations that currently exist on the globe will be discussed in a narrow format. And, naturally, the Ukrainian crisis will not be without discussion. Experts expect that representatives of Brazil and China will outline their understanding of these conflicts. And they will […]

The C919, China’s first domestically-produced long-haul passenger jet, is now in regular commercial service. It is the first domestically-produced commercial jet produced by the state-owned Commercial Aircraft Corporation of China (COMAC). Boeing and Airbus make almost all the world’s commercial aircraft. Now China wants to get in on the fun and break the duopoly in […]
