The AI story is a fascinating paradox. 🤔 Wall Street is getting nervous, yet OpenAI is begging for more data centers, and scientists are finding quantum keys in basic crystals.

Market jitters, massive infrastructure, and science.

A flat-iconic cyber-neo-minimalist design with a bold grid layout featuring a central circular hub representing the AI brain split into five pie-slice quadrants for research, industry, policy, applications, and culture. Radiating line-art circuits connect the hub to peripheral icons (paper, rocket, gavel, toolbox, paintbrush) with tiny binary code rain embedded in the background. A hand-drawn neuron sketch with synapse points doubles as clickable hotspots, while micro-gradient textures shift from light (research) to dark (industry). The composition includes a transparent world map overlay with faint data-point clusters, glowing back-lit outlines on data nodes suggesting real-time flow, soft diffusion around human silhouettes for ethical considerations, and high-contrast spotlights on headline icons. The top-left banner features a stylized soundwave forming a "µ" symbol, with a bottom-right tagline strip containing a 10-minute timer icon, all rendered in vibrant vector-based SVG for infinite scalability.

🌍 The future of clean tech must be made in Europe.

We’re preparing a new Circular Economy Act to:

♻️ Boost the use of circular products
🪨 Reduce dependencies on critical resources
🌳 Support green innovation

🤝75 years of the European Convention on Human Rights

A landmark treaty that reshaped Europe after the second World War, protecting millions of Europeans and supporting our shared values of human rights, democracy and rule of law.

Because human rights aren’t optional. They’re universal.
Text on a light, textured background reads: "Human rights aren't optional. They're universal." Below, in smaller blue text: "EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS 75 YEARS (1950 - 2025)" next to a small image of the EU flag. A list of fundamental human rights on a light, textured background. The text reads: "Right to life. Prohibition of torture. Prohibition of slavery and forced labour. Right to liberty and security. Right to a fair trial. No punishment without law. Right to respect for private and family life. Freedom of thought, conscience and religion. Freedom of expression. Freedom of assembly and association. Right to marry. Right to an effective remedy. Prohibition of discrimination. Prohibition of abuse of rights." Below, in smaller blue text: "EUROPEAN CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS 75 YEARS (1950 - 2025)" next to a small image of the EU flag.

What happens when you give an LLM a body?
Researchers found out when their robot started channeling Robin Williams. 🎭 It's funny, but it asks a bigger question: Are we ready for AI with unpredictable, pop-culture-fueled personalities?

The subject is a stylized vacuum robot with a glowing central core, placed in a clean, minimalist lab environment. Action lines show it moving erratically, leaving behind a trail of tiny comedy and tragedy mask icons. The mood is one of controlled chaos and scientific curiosity. Rendered in a flat-iconic meets cyber-neo-minimalist style, the composition uses a bold grid layout with the robot at a central hub, radiating circuits connecting to peripheral icons like a comedy mask. A hand-drawn neuron sketch is subtly visible in the background, symbolizing the emergent AI mind.

New AI browsers promise to be your personal web agent, but are they a Trojan horse? 🤔 We’re diving into the convenience vs. the security nightmare.

Is it a leap forward or a step into a digital trap? 🎧 open.spotify.com/episode/4Qyg...

A vibrant, flat-iconic illustration in a cyber-neo-minimalist style. The central image is a giant, confused-looking surveillance camera. On its screen, instead of a face, there’s a glowing, orange Doritos chip. In the background, a subtle grid layout with binary code rain. The overall feel is slightly absurd and thought-provoking

Informed debate based on reliable information is a cornerstone of any healthy democracy.

False or distorted information online can spread faster than ever, shaping opinions and undermining trust.

EU Member States have approved our 19th package of sanctions against Russia.

We’re keeping the pressure high on the aggressor.

For the first time we are hitting Russia’s gas sector - the heart of its war economy.

We will not relent until the people of Ukraine have a just and lasting peace.

On Byte Of Truth, we explore how this tech is moving from labs to clinics.

A highly detailed, cinematic manga panel in historical anime style. The scene features a lone scientist in a sleek, futuristic lab, clutching a glowing, translucent brain-shaped hologram that pulses with fractal patterns. Behind them, a massive quantum computer hums silently, its lights dimmed to reveal a single beam of light piercing through the darkness like a divine spotlight. The scientist’s face is illuminated with a mix of awe and determination, reflecting the tension between human ambition and machine intelligence. The setting is a sterile, high-tech laboratory with floating UI panels and soft blue ambient lighting. The mood is hopeful yet introspective, capturing the duality of scientific progress and ethical responsibility.

Our goal remains a strong and free Ukraine.

Russia needs to know that the EU and its partners have the will and the means to continue supporting Ukraine until a just and lasting peace is achieved.

Soon, we will launch a new programme to give Ukraine the tech edge it needs on the battlefield.

A wide cinematic anime shot in a highly detailed, vibrant historical anime style with sharp lines and cel shading. A determined tech analyst in a modern control room stands before a massive holographic global data network. They press a hand on a glowing data point, causing a wave of grey sludge to spread, while a giant, cracking hologram of a humanoid robot looms ominously in the background. The scene is lit by dramatic anime lighting from the holograms, with god rays cutting through shadows, capturing a mood of urgent analysis and thoughtful concern. masterpiece, dynamic angle, expressive character face.

A study in contrasts: Google's deep cost-cutting vs. Phia (founded by Phoebe Gates & Sophia Kianni) securing $8M in funding. 💰
It reflects the strange, dual reality of the tech market today. Austerity at scale vs. big bets on the new generation.

Let's talk about the Efficiency Paradox. AI's potential is limitless, but its power consumption isn't. 🔌
New episode of Byte Of Truth digs into model distillation, a cooling breakthrough that doubles efficiency, and the (crazy?) idea of orbital data centers.

A wide, cinematic anime shot of a vast, futuristic data center, its lights glowing like a city at night. A single engineer stands on a gantry, looking up as dramatic god rays of light break through the clouds above, illuminating the facility. The style is highly detailed, sharp-lined historical anime, with cel shading and a mood of awe and immense scale.

If the recent russian drone attacks in Poland and Romania -or russky fighter jets over Estonia - made you ask yourself, what it feels like to have a war in your country, most probably you have a really good awareness level. Let's talk about it!
