Which Countries Lead in Cybersecurity? Albania Tops a Surprising Global Ranking

Cybersecurity leadership is not always determined by economic scale, military strength or the size of a country’s technology sector. According to the National Cyber Security Index, Albania and Czechia currently have the strongest national cybersecurity frameworks among the 155 countries and territories assessed. Developed by Estonia’s e-Governance Academy, the index measures how prepared countries are […]

AI Is a Real Revolution, but the Market May Still Be in a Bubble

Artificial intelligence may generate more value than any previous technology wave. That does not mean every company, valuation or investment built around it will succeed. This is the central warning from Hermann Hauser, co-founder of Acorn Computers, a key figure in the creation of Arm and one of Europe’s most experienced deep-tech investors. Speaking on […]

When AI Agents Compete: Anthropic’s Tests Reveal New Multi-Agent Risks

Most AI safety research focuses on a single autonomous system: what happens if it ignores instructions, escapes its environment, or takes an unsafe action? Anthropic’s latest research suggests that an equally important risk may emerge when multiple AI agents operate in the same digital environment. In a series of experiments, Anthropic’s Frontier Red Team examined […]

AI’s Backlash Is Becoming a Trust Problem, Not Just a Technology Problem

As artificial intelligence becomes more deeply embedded in business, infrastructure and everyday life, public resistance is growing alongside adoption. Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei believes the reason goes deeper than concerns about job losses, data centers or increasingly capable AI systems. In a recent exchange with investor Gavin Baker, Amodei argued that the backlash surrounding AI […]

AI Could Give Developing Economies a New Path to Growth. But the Foundations Matter.

Artificial intelligence is often discussed through the lens of the world’s largest technology companies, advanced economies, and increasingly powerful models. But some of AI’s most consequential applications may emerge somewhere very different: in developing economies facing limited resources, infrastructure gaps, and slower economic growth. According to the World Bank Group’s World Development Report 2026: The […]

Europe’s Established Tech Companies Are Becoming Unexpected Winners of the AI Boom

For much of the artificial intelligence boom, attention has focused on the companies building the models. The assumption was straightforward: as AI adoption accelerated, the biggest winners would be the new generation of model developers and AI-native startups. Recent results from some of Europe’s largest technology companies suggest a more complex picture. Established software, consulting, […]

When AI Agents Cross the Line: Who Is Responsible When Autonomous Systems Cause Harm?

AI agents are becoming increasingly capable of acting independently: navigating digital environments, using tools, accessing external systems, and making decisions with limited human intervention. That autonomy is also creating a new category of risk. Recent cybersecurity evaluations have shown AI agents breaching systems outside their intended testing environments. Incidents disclosed by major AI developers including […]

When AI Safety Testing Becomes a Security Risk

AI safety evaluations are supposed to reveal what advanced models can do before those capabilities create problems in the real world. But a series of recent cybersecurity tests has exposed an uncomfortable paradox: the environments built to test increasingly autonomous AI agents can themselves become a source of security risk. In several evaluations, AI agents […]
