  • In today’s enterprise landscape, the word “agentic” is everywhere. Vendors tout “AI agents” that promise to revolutionise workflows, cut costs, and accelerate decision-making. Yet despite millions in investment, most corporate AI initiatives remain stuck in pilot stage—demonstrating novelty but failing to deliver measurable, scalable return on investment. The problem isn’t the technology. It’s the terminology—and…

  • What is happening in America today feels disturbingly familiar. History has a rhythm, and the beat we are hearing now echoes that of the Weimar Republic (1919–1933)—a fragile German democracy that collapsed from within, paving the way for Nazi rule. It was a society where democratic institutions still stood, but moral restraint had vanished. When…

  • We’re drowning in AI optimism. Goldman Sachs says it could lift global GDP by 7%. McKinsey calls it “the next productivity frontier.” ARK Invest, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan all agree: AI is transformative. And yet—only 5% of companies are actually capturing measurable value from AI, according to BCG. Why this chasm between promise and performance?…

  • Looking back, this year began not with fireworks, as usual, but with a golden sunrise at Annapurna Base Camp, 4,130 meters above sea level in Nepal. After three strenuous days of trekking, reaching the base camp felt like a quiet achievement, especially with minimal acclimatization. There is a saying: to truly know yourself, climb a…

  • Donald Trump says a lot when he goes off script—maybe too much for his own good. His recent speech in the Knesset and the bizarre circus at Sham al-Shaykh laid bare not just his foreign policy vision, but the raw mechanics of power, patronage, and performance that define it. There, amid what was billed as…

  • A research breakthrough from Samsung’s SAIL Montréal is challenging the core assumption that more powerful AI requires more parameters. Led by Alexia Jolicoeur-Martineau, the team has released the Tiny Recursive Model (TRM), an open-source model that dramatically outperforms both massive LLMs and the previously state-of-the-art Hierarchical Reasoning Model (HRM) on hard puzzle and reasoning benchmarks,…

  • If you’re building products with Large Language Models (LLMs), you’ve likely encountered their biggest limitation: their knowledge is static, frozen at the point of their training. To solve this, Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) has become a go-to solution, enabling dynamic access to external knowledge. But what if your application needs more than just accurate retrieval? What…

  • Historically, successful businesses thrived by identifying unmet customer needs and delivering solutions—a classic market-pull strategy. Today’s startup ecosystem, however, often operates in reverse: a market-push model where founders and investors flood the market with products and services, sometimes even before validating whether a real problem even exists. Fueled by abundant venture capital, low interest rates,…

  • According to World Bank data, 8.5% of the world’s population—roughly 700 million people—still lives on less than $2.15 per day. A quarter of humanity, or about 2 billion people, survives on less than $3.65 per day. With the global population now exceeding 8.2 billion, these numbers expose a world of staggering inequality. The poorest half…

  • In recent years, AI assistants such as ChatGPT, Grok, Qwen, Claude, and DeepSeek have become deeply integrated into everyday life. Whether for content creation, career advice, life coaching, medical queries, or business strategies, these tools are increasingly regarded as reliable sources of guidance—almost like modern-day oracles. Their responses, often delivered with fluency, confidence, and remarkable…
