TechnologyWhen AI Starts Questioning Its Own Speed
For years, competition in artificial intelligence revolved around a simple question: who could move fastest? In September 2026, another question is beginning to take hold: how far can the industry continue accelerating without losing control of what it is building?

TechnologyLocal AI: The Data Center Now Fits on a Desk
For years, the cloud gave artificial intelligence an almost self-evident geography. The most powerful models lived in data centers, behind clusters of GPUs, high-bandwidth networks and levels of investment that only a limited number of actors could sustain. The personal computer received the result: an interface, a few seconds of waiting and an answer calculated somewhere else. That division has not disappeared. But an experiment conducted this week on a Mac Studio suggests that it is becoming less clear-cut than it was even recently.

TechnologyAI Takes Position in Orbit
From Abu Dhabi to the ecosystem built by Elon Musk, artificial intelligence is beginning to move beyond terrestrial data centers and into orbit. Behind intelligent satellites and orbital computing projects, a new layer of global infrastructure is taking shape, where sovereign capital, launch systems, constellations, networks and AI models converge.

TechnologyEurope in Space: A Private Victory in a System Still Searching for Autonomy
On September 5, 2026, a German rocket lifted off from Norway and reached orbit. The achievement was historic. It does not, however, mean quite what Europe would already like it to mean.

TechnologyAstra: The Critical Threshold
The language of cybersecurity is filled with superlatives. Vulnerabilities are “critical,” infrastructure is “strategic,” attacks are “sophisticated.” But when OpenAI announced that Astra had crossed the “Critical” threshold of its Preparedness Framework for cybersecurity, the term carried a much more precise meaning.

TechnologyChina’s Parallel Technology System
Artificial intelligence, semiconductors, batteries, electric vehicles, telecommunications, platforms, drones and robotics: China is no longer seeking merely to manufacture the world’s technologies. It is attempting to master the system that produces them.

TechnologyWho Informs AI?
For nearly three decades, a considerable part of the digital economy has been organized around an apparently simple question: how do you become visible on Google? Entire industries were built around that obsession. Media organizations learned to write for search engines, brands s
