Taipei ‘optimistic’ about arms deal even after US Navy chief says it’s on ice

Taiwan’s defence minister said on Monday he remained “cautiously optimistic” about US approval of an arms package for the island, even as a senior Pentagon official said Washington would put the sale on hold. The reassurance by Wellington Koo Li-hsiung came after acting US Secretary of the Navy Hung Cao said Washington was pausing the proposed deal to ensure the US military had sufficient ammunition to continue its war on Iran. “We’re just making sure we have everything, but then the foreign...

Pope calls for ‘disarming’ of AI, technology should be ‘human friendly’

Pope Leo called for the “disarming” of artificial intelligence in his long-awaited manifesto on the rapidly developing technology on Monday, and warned of “new forms of slavery” behind its rise. The “just war” theory – espoused recently by the Trump administration – was “outdated”, Pope Leo XIV wrote in his first encyclical, which he presented in person at the Vatican, alongside AI experts including the co-founder of US giant Anthropic. The first US pope, who has clashed with the White House...

As Chinese EV makers expand in Europe, are local automotive suppliers set to benefit?

European automotive suppliers are set to benefit from an influx of Chinese carmakers, thanks to growing demand for electric vehicles (EVs) and persistent local protectionism, according to Vulcan Energy Resources, a lithium and renewable energy producer in Germany. Chinese EV makers – from BYD to Xpeng – are planning to aggressively expand into Europe in search of higher profit margins, even as Brussels advances measures to protect local manufacturing amid a slower pace of electrification. On...

Lebensversicherung auflösen, Rückkaufwert

Hallo Schwarmintelligenz, ich möchte gerne meine Kapitallebensversicherung auflösen. Was ist dabei zu beachten? Die habe ich mir vor vielen Jahren mal von einem Vertiebler aufschwätzen lassen und diese dann recht bald beitragsfrei gestellt. Den Rückkaufwert beträgt laut damaliger Auskunft nur ca. 2500€, was mir etwas wenig vorkommt, auch wenn ich wirklich nicht lange eingezahlt habe. Kann ich mich auf die Auskunft der Versicherung verlassen oder sollte ich das besser prüfen? Und wenn ja wie? Ist

Singapore’s economy grows on back of AI boom, defying Iran war slowdown

Singapore’s economy expanded faster than expected in the first quarter as the global artificial-intelligence boom lifted the nation’s manufacturing and services, offsetting the drag from higher crude prices. Gross domestic product grew a seasonally adjusted 1 per cent in the three months through March from the previous quarter, the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) said on Monday. That is well above the government’s advance estimate of a 0.3 per cent contraction and the median forecast of a..

China scientists argue that harsh settings, not warm climates, drive early human creativity

Archaeologists in central China have directly challenged the long-held belief that humanity’s earliest ancestors reached their creative peak during warm and hospitable climates. For more than a decade, a team of researchers in Henan province has studied a 146,000-year-old animal-butchering site once inhabited by Homo juluensis, an extinct human species that lived about 300,000 years ago in eastern Asia. Their discovery of remarkably inventive tools suggests that these ancient cousins of Homo...
