UN rights chief: AI misuse and corporate influence present ‘clear and present’ challenge
(UN News) The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk, says major companies and fast-moving technologies are creating new challenges for tackling rights abuses – and that governments and businesses need to step up. Opening the 14th UN Forum on Business and Human Rights in Geneva on Monday, he said that corporate power has become increasingly influential in terms of social change. He warned that without proper checks in place, new tools like generative artificial intelligence – or AI – could easily be misused. “When powerful tech giants introduce new technologies, such as generative artificial intelligence, human rights can be the first casualty,” he said. “Generative AI holds tremendous promise, but its exploitation for purely political or economic benefit can manipulate, distort and distract.”. He stressed that rules, safeguards and independent oversight must keep pace with innovation. – https://news.un.org/en/story/2025/11/1166441
From organic farms to AI chips with a nose: UN summit showcases solutions for transforming the Global South
(UN News) The UN’s Global Industry Summit underlined the benefits of partnerships for companies in the Global South on Monday, demonstrating ways that AI – if used responsibly – can provide solutions to some of the most intractable problems faced by business leaders. The “Green Revolution” is believed to have saved millions of lives in India during the 20th century, introducing new scientific techniques that led to a surge in yields, providing food and livelihoods. But the use of synthetic fertilisers and pesticides came at a huge cost, both to the environment and to health, leading to a growing interest in organic farming –pairing the latest science with traditional techniques to produce nutritious food without harming the soil. “It’s a win-win,” says Amit Singh, Head of Sustainability at Nature Bio Foods, referring to a business model that sees thousands of Indian farmers produce high quality and sustainable food for consumers, while getting well paid for doing so. – https://news.un.org/en/story/2025/11/1166438

Ireland confronts rising energy strain from data centres
(DigWatch) Ireland faces mounting pressure over soaring electricity use from data centres clustered around Dublin. Facilities powering global tech giants have grown into a major energy consumer, accounting for over a fifth of national demand. The load could reach 30 percent by 2030 as expanding cloud and AI services drive further growth. Analysts warn that rising consumption threatens climate commitments and places significant strain on grid stability. – https://dig.watch/updates/ireland-confronts-rising-energy-strain-from-data-centres
Cyber Warfare and Its Limits: A Response to Soesanto and Gajos
(Kubo Mačák – Lawfare) On Nov. 3, Lawfare published a thought-provoking piece by Stefan Soesanto and Wiktoria Gajos advancing the argument that Western governments should learn from Ukraine’s offensive cyber strategy and adopt what the authors call a “responsibly irresponsible” approach to cyber warfare. While they present compliance with international humanitarian law (IHL, also referred to as the law of armed conflict) as a worthy aspiration, they frame it as ultimately at odds with “the realities of contemporary digital conflict”. The idea that the necessities of war should take precedence over the rules of war is not new. In the 19th century, it appeared as the German maxim “Kriegsraison geht vor Kriegsmanier.” In the 20th century, it reemerged in the post-Nuremberg trials in the form of the (unsuccessful) attempts by some defendants to justify actions such as reprisal killings of civilians during World War II. And in the 21st century, it seems to return as claims that “idealistic legalism” and “arcane rules” lead to inescapable defeat on the digital battlefield, leaving belligerents with no choice but discard these “taboos and legal limitations.”. It would be easy to dismiss such calls as incompatible with the post-1945 legal order and the fundamental protections enshrined in core international treaties, including the Geneva Conventions and their Additional Protocols. To stop the discussion there, however, would be to miss an opportunity to test the robustness of these legal frameworks and to consider whether they remain fit for purpose in the digital age. In what follows, I focus on two of Soesanto and Gajos’s main arguments. First, they propose broadening the category of permissible targets in times of armed conflict by endorsing offensive cyber operations against civilian infrastructure. Second, they encourage a broader involvement of civilians—such as hacktivists and volunteers—in offensive cyber campaigns against the enemy. I take up each in turn after offering some preliminary remarks about the assumptions that seem to underlie their case. – https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/cyber-warfare-and-its-limits–a-response-to-soesanto-and-gajos
Trump Executive Order Launches AI ‘Genesis Mission’
(Justin Hendrix – Tech Policy Press) In its “AI Action Plan” released last summer, the Trump White House promised to “lead the creation of the world’s largest and highest quality AI-ready scientific datasets,” calling such information a “national strategic asset.” Consistent with that goal, today the administration launched what it calls a “historic national effort, comparable in urgency and ambition to the Manhattan Project” that developed the first atomic bombs during World War II. The “Genesis Mission,” described in an executive order issued Monday by President Donald Trump, is intended to develop “an integrated AI platform to harness federal scientific datasets” in order to train foundation models and “create AI agents to test new hypotheses, automate research workflows, and accelerate scientific breakthroughs.” – https://www.techpolicy.press/trump-executive-order-launches-ai-genesis-mission/
Examining the Technical Critique That May Pop the AI Bubble
(Amber Sinha – Tech Policy Press) A few weeks ago, Nvidia became the first publicly traded company ever to hit the $5 trillion figure in market capitalization. Not only is this feat remarkable, what makes it staggering is that the company crossed the $1 trillion only some eight quarters ago. There is a single market phenomenon that has driven this astounding increase in market value — the AI boom. The rise in Nvidia’s fortunes is only a small part of this story, which extends to the entire US technology sector and large parts of the US economy over the last two years. The Swiss bank UBS estimated global spending on AI worth $375 billion and $500 billion globally in 2025 and 2026 respectively. Harvard economist Jason Furnam reported that investments in data centers, the infrastructure behind AI, was responsible for 92% of GDP growth in the US in the first half of this 2025. Aside from direct spending on building AI, this wave of investment supports other sectors of the economy driven by demand for AI infrastructure, including semiconductor factories and investments in energy supply. It seems clear that the US economy is, for the moment, largely propped by AI. – https://www.techpolicy.press/examining-the-technical-critique-that-may-pop-the-ai-bubble/

Building a UK Quantum Strategy: The UK Must Win The Race for the Next Critical Technology
(Quantum Insider) “Nature isn’t classical, dammit, and if you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical”. As anxieties around artificial intelligence hitting a wall are making market bulls think twice, the words of the American physicist Richard Feynman echo more truthfully than ever. If we want to use computation to master nature and solve the world’s biggest problems – from drug discovery to languid public services – we can’t just pray that AI will do this all for us. Quantum offers the chance for us to rethink how we compute in the first place. But while the UK races to catch-up on AI, it’s taking its eye off the ball on this next big technological wave. – https://thequantuminsider.com/2025/11/25/guest-post-building-a-uk-quantum-strategy-the-uk-must-win-the-race-for-the-next-critical-technology/

Terrorism and Counter-Terrorism
Rise of the E-Militias: Designated Terrorist Groups Infest Iraq’s Digital Economy
(Michael Knights – Combating Terrorism Center at West Point) Iraq’s digital economy is one of its fastest-growing sectors, driven by an expanding youth population, a transition to e-governance services, and the potential for Iraq to become a regional data transit hub. As with militia monetization of Iraq’s oil sector, the telecommunications industry is attracting the attention of U.S.-designated terrorist groups. They have two motives: to generate threat finances and to control and monitor data to strengthen their grip on the population and on Western diplomatic, military, and commercial entities inside Iraq. In the year before Iraq’s November 2025 elections, the outgoing government of Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani revealed the extent of militia penetration of the sector by awarding sensitive telecoms contracts to a now-sanctioned militia economic conglomerate, while also offering U.S.-origin equipment to militias and channeling lucrative 5G mobile telephony licenses exclusively to militia businessmen. – https://ctc.westpoint.edu/rise-of-the-e-militias-designated-terrorist-groups-infest-iraqs-digital-economy/

The Five Eyes Alliance Can’t Afford to Stay Small
(Mitchell Gallagher – Lawfare) The Five Eyes alliance—that venerable intelligence compact linking the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand—was once the envy of the democratic world. Its foundations rested on a mutual language, aligned laws, and near-absolute trust. But the digital age has redrawn the map of espionage. Data has supplanted territory as the critical frontier, and adversaries no longer need to breach borders when they can infiltrate clouds. The Anglophone alliance faces one inescapable fact: Exclusivity, once its advantage, is fast becoming a liability, especially in the cyber realm. – https://www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-five-eyes-alliance-can-t-afford-to-stay-small
