There is only one truth: the things that actually happened. Everything else is a one-sided story that can keep people apart by creating incompatible narratives that prevent them from finding common ground, or seeing each other's suffering. From the People by WTF podcast with @nikhilkamathcio.
Just six countries control the majority of the world’s oil and gas reserves. What was true after Russia's invasion of Ukraine is true for the war in Iran: Leaders must help reduce the acute dependencies that often fuel tensions, annexations and wars. Read Sapienship’s new brief…
AI is more than a tool, it has the power to act as an independent agent without human instruction. Releasing AI agents into the world requires constant monitoring and self-correcting mechanisms.
Humans are powerful because we use words to cooperate and build things together. But what happens when something else is able to use words better than us? In conversation with Irene Tracey, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford at @wef 2026 in Davos. Watch the whole thi…
The past few decades have been the first time in human history that states have consistently spent more on their citizens’ health than on war. With the threats to Greenland and Taiwan, and the wars in Ukraine and Iran, are we entering a new imperial era where countries must again…
We don’t know what changes AI will bring to our lives in the years ahead, but we definitely do know that those years will be defined by constant change. And the most important quality we can nurture in ourselves to navigate change is resilience.
The world order of the 21st century might have been far from perfect, but it was better than almost any order humanity has even managed to create. From October 2025 event with Prof. Marijana Grbeša. Watch the whole thing - bit.ly/YNH-IMC
The current war makes us reflect not only on the conflicts stirred up by strongmen and zealots, but also on the global energy map. Who owns what? Who buys from whom? Who controls the trade routes? Today, just six out of nearly 200 countries control the majority of the world’s oi…

To those celebrating, As the Lunar New Year arrives, I would like to send my warmest wishes to you and your families. The New Year is a time for reunion, sharing and hope. These values feel especially meaningful today. At a time when technology reshapes our lives, when artifici…
One of the biggest misconceptions about AI is that it is just a tool. A knife is a tool that cannot decide whether to chop salad or commit murder, whereas AI can make its own decisions without human involvement. From @nytimes piece “Where Is AI Taking Us?” – read the whole thing…
We live in a post truth world, nothing is black or white(to be fair it likely never was), everything is a story, stories that have tenure become reality, with incumbent social media optimising for traction via anger and negative stories, one must worry about the reality of
Moltbook isn't about AIs gaining consciousness. It is about AIs mastering language. But that's BIG. Humans conquered the world with language. We used words to build systems of law, religion, finance and politics. Now AI is mastering language. Soon, everything made of words will b…
What happens when most of what children read and hear has been written not by fellow humans, but by computers? It’s the biggest psychological experiment in history. In conversation with Irene Tracey, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford at @wef 2026 in Davos. Watch the w…

Trust is important for society to function – and it starts on an individual level. When interacting with somebody, start with a charitable position; don't immediately jump to the worst possible interpretation.
Technologies help us say unimportant things to people we don't care about – but often make it more difficult to say the really important things to the people we most care about.
AIs might already be better than us in recognizing emotions – but as long as they don't feel emotions themselves, we still have a huge advantage in really understanding what these emotions are.
Whether pessimists or optimists, we can all agree that AI will fundamentally change how we live: whether it's how we study and work, our leisure and hobbies, how we form friendships and relationships – or ultimately just how we communicate with each other.
