In The Beginning

To begin at the beginning: It is spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible black------(Dylan Thomas, UnderMilk Wood 1954)


In Technological Innovation, The U.S. and China have been leading in technology and innovation, especially in fields like artificial intelligence (AI), biotechnology, and advanced manufacturing. Companies such as Tesla, Google, Microsoft, and Chinese giants like Huawei and Tencent dominate global markets in tech development.

Similarly, Sam Altman anticipates the emergence of a one-person unicorn—a billion-dollar enterprise managed by a single individual leveraging an army of AI agents.

Today’s AI assistants, like ChatGPT, require constant human input—they’re co-pilots, not autonomous actors. The next evolution, already well underway, is of agents that execute tasks independently once given an objective, much like delegating to a seasoned team and stepping back while they handle the rest. And there is no limit to the size of this team.

While it's true that Europe is perceived to be lagging behind the U.S. and China in several critical areas such as technology innovation, venture capital, and global influence, it remains a significant player on the global stage. Europe has distinct advantages in fields such as regulatory frameworks, sustainability, manufacturing, and certain sectors of high-tech engineering. 

Moving forward, the challenge for other nations will be to foster more cohesive innovation ecosystems, invest in digital transformation, and ensure that policies allow for competitiveness on the global stage without compromising core values.

By leveraging on the army of AI agents, the perceived gap between nations will slowly give way, then we are back to the beginning.
