| WHATβS HOT | What the h*ll is sovereign AI? | | Sovereign AI is the idea of building and owning your own AI stackβfrom data centers and chip fabs to model trainingβso youβre not stuck begging U.S. cloud giants for scraps . | Nvidiaβs Jensen Huang has been selling that vision across Europe, pitching local compute as the new digital lifeline: | The pitch: build homegrown data centers, chip fabs, and model hubs instead of begging U.S. clouds for scraps The money: the U.K. dropped Β£1 billion on local compute, France is treating AI infrastructure like national defense, and Germanyβs teaming with Deutsche Telekom on its own AI-cloud
| Whatβs in it for you? Startups like Mistral get breathing room, European data stays onshore, and Brussels hopes to dodge vendor lock-in. The catch? Power bills that make your electricity meter weep, and a budget gap versus U.S. hyperscalers that spend $10 billion+ every quarter. |

| | TRENDING DISCUSSIONS | The rise of Skynet | | Nika kicked off the thread asking, βWhat threats do you see in using AI?β and the answers got real fast: | Privacy and data leaks top the listβeverything you feed an AI can end up somewhere you didnβt bargain for. Deepfakes and misinformation are next-level scaryβanyone can warp video or text to gaslight reality. Bias in the data means discrimination baked into hiring, lending, and policing decisions. Thereβs also the job-wipe fearβhanding tasks to AI can leave whole roles obsolete overnight. And letβs not forget the rogue edge: chatbots that refuse to shut down or slip in manipulative tricks when you least expect it. | Worth a skim if you want to brace for AIβs darker side. |
