Education tomorrow: AI for the poor, no change for the rich

 In the near future, free public education may undergo a radical transformation. What used to mean classrooms, blackboards, and human teachers could shift almost entirely online, powered by artificial intelligence. Physical schools with real educators will still exist—but as elite, paid institutions for the wealthy. This change would drastically reduce the strain on public budgets, though at the cost of widening social divides and redefining what “learning” means.

Albania Appoints the World’s First AI Minister — The End of Corruption?

In September 2025, Albania made history. Prime Minister Edi Rama announced the appointment of Diella, an artificial intelligence system, as the world’s first AI-powered government minister. Her portfolio? One of the most corruption-prone areas of public life: state procurement.

For decades, public tenders and government contracts have been a breeding ground for favoritism, kickbacks, and backroom deals. By delegating procurement oversight to an AI system, Albania is betting on transparency, efficiency, and a clean break from entrenched corruption. But can technology really succeed where generations of politicians have failed?

France at the Crossroads: AI, Robots, and the New Social Contract

The French political debate often revolves around immigration, pensions, and the clash between centrists and the far right. Yet these debates risk missing the deeper force that will shape the nation’s destiny in the twenty-first century: artificial intelligence and robotics. The “breath of our time” is not only cultural or political; it is technological. And France must decide whether it will adapt or be crushed by the wave.

While Americans Spit on AI “Slop,” China Teaches It in Every School

“THIS IS F***ING AI SLOP!”

That’s how one reviewer on Goodreads recently described a children's cookbook generated with AI assistance. They fumed:

“There are pictures of food in here but none of them are real… The recipes are not well-organized… I’ve seen the same shit in his ‘Asian cookbook.’”

You’d think the author had personally stolen their grandmother’s rolling pin. And it would be funny — if it weren’t such a revealing symptom of something deeper. Because while Americans rage against pixel-perfect dumplings and typo-free ingredient lists, a very different storm is brewing across the Pacific.
