72% of our digital sovereignty under American flag – The urgency of a European cloud

72% of our digital sovereignty under American flag – The urgency of a European cloud

🚨 72% of our cloud is under American control! 🚨

With Trump’s return and his “America First” doctrine, our technological dependence is no longer just a commercial disadvantage – it’s a STRATEGIC TRAP closing in on us.

In this (very) long article, I share with you:

✅ How we have systematically CONFUSED infrastructure with software in our cloud strategies
✅ Why our French champions tear each other apart while the tech giants present a united front
✅ How our bureaucracy has SACRIFICED our most promising technological gems
✅ My proposal for a “DIGITAL EURO FOR CLOUD” with a precise 2025-2035 timeline

When Broadcom increased VMware prices by 300% (even 1050% for some), it’s not just a CIO problem, it’s OUR MONEY filling the gap while our public services operate on tight budgets.

The urgency to act has NEVER been more palpable.

Ethical challenges and future perspectives of generative AI

Ethical challenges and future perspectives of generative AI

While ChatGPT composes our emails, Midjourney illustrates our presentations, and other AIs code on our behalf, we find ourselves facing a fascinating paradox: never have we had such powerful tools to amplify our creativity, and yet, never have we seemed so vulnerable to the consequences of this amplification.

In my article “Ethical challenges and future perspectives of generative AI,” I explore this gray area where neither blissful techno-optimism nor paralyzing catastrophism is sufficient to grasp the reality.

Generative AI or the hidden face of a technological mirage

Generative AI or the hidden face of a technological mirage

Behind every ChatGPT query lies a reality that few of us want to face: a titanic infrastructure that devours water, electricity, and rare metals at a frenzied pace.

I dove into the behind-the-scenes of this technological revolution, and the figures are staggering:

➡️ A single ChatGPT query consumes 5 TIMES more electricity than a classic Google search

➡️ By 2030, AI could generate 2.5 MILLION tons of electronic waste per year

➡️ A heavy ChatGPT user generates nearly 300g of CO2 annually – multiplied by hundreds of millions of users…

But beyond the alarming numbers, in this article I explore concrete solutions: specialized models, distributed computing, frugal innovation… Because I’m convinced: **the future of AI will be ecological, or it won’t exist.**

This extraordinary technology deserves better than our collective blindness. It deserves deep reflection on its sustainability.
