"AI just became geopolitical. The neutral ground is disappearing. The companies, countries, and technologies that pick the right side in the next 12 months will own the next decade." — Peter Diamandis, March 2026
The week AI chose sides — and what it means for you
India positions itself as neutral AI territory. The Pentagon demands Anthropic remove its safety guardrails. And quietly, Anthropic's revenue is growing 10x faster than OpenAI's. Peter Diamandis maps a week in which the geopolitics of artificial intelligence shifted — probably permanently.

What if survival was no longer the point?
Diamandis sketches a post-scarcity future: advanced AI and robots producing food, energy, healthcare, and education at near-zero cost. Basic survival becomes a given. Human purpose takes centre stage.
Worth noting
Many commenters push back — understandably. Entrenched power structures have little incentive to relinquish supremacy. The vision is compelling; the path there is the hard part.
When you can no longer trust the public health system
Epidemiologist Dr. Katelyn Jetelina: "For the first time in my career, I cannot tell people to trust the CDC website without hesitation." A sobering marker of how politicisation is eroding the institutions we rely on most.
Why it matters
When credibility collapses in public health, individuals are left navigating without a compass. This is exactly the kind of systemic uncertainty Brave New Reality is built for.
See the swarm: our planet is more networked than you think
A live 3D interactive map of every satellite — and every piece of debris — wrapping around Earth. Spectacular to look at. More importantly, it's a visceral reminder of how deeply interconnected, and how rapidly evolving, our world already is.
Try it
satellitemap.space — worth five minutes of your time. Switch between satellite types and debris layers. The debris layer alone is a conversation starter.
The next platform will sit on your face
After years of watching this space, the crossover moment feels real. Barclays analysts predict smart glasses could be the most disruptive innovation since mobile phones — 60 million units by 2035. That estimate may be conservative.
The shift
From staring down at a thin brick to a hands-free, AI agent-driven wearable. The form factor changes everything about how we interact with information — and each other.
AI's hidden cost — and it's showing up on your electricity bill
A single large data center can consume as much electricity as a small city. With AI and cloud computing growing exponentially, the strain on power grids is real — and the companies with trillion-dollar market caps are at the centre of it.
The personal impact
The feeding frenzy for US electrical energy will likely mean higher bills and infrastructure stress for ordinary households — a cost of the AI boom that rarely makes the headlines.
Drone delivery is no longer a concept — it's a service
Wing (Alphabet) is expanding to 100 Walmart stores across Atlanta, Charlotte, Houston, Orlando and Tampa. Amazon Prime Air is close behind. With a 6–7 mile range and 5lb payload, the last-mile delivery race is well underway.
Worth watching
The linked video walks through Wing's full delivery process — more interesting than you'd expect. The logistics of autonomous airspace management alone are remarkable.
