А что происходит на противоположном фронте?
Вы, вероятно, слышали, что 2026 год называют годом Linux на десктопе (в каких-то узких кругах - годом гейминга на Linux). Всё потому, что экосистема Linux постепенно становится более дружелюбной для обычных десктоп-юзеров (в том числе привыкших к Windows), и не только!
▫️ всё чаще появляются Linux дистрибутивы визуально похожиена Windows (или даже лучше), и множество видео с советами какой дистрибутив попробовать новичкам.
▫️ обновления ядра и любых пакетов в экосистеме Linux всегда привносят оптимизацию и удобство и поддержку свежего железа (привет винде с её обратной тенденцией). Например грядущая версия 7.0, опять с множеством приятных мелочей.
▫️ после 10 лет с последего релиза версии 5 окружение KDE Plasma получила мажорный апдейт версии 6 и активно развивается (уже доросла до 6.5). GNOME тоже не спит и готовит версию 50.
▫️ в Wine добавили патч позволяющий устанавливать продукты Adobe на Linux. Для кого-то это был последний рубеж?😏
▫️ Proton активно развивается, да так, что через эту прослойку игры работают даже быстрей чем нативно на винде.
▫️ с каждым релизом Wine и Proton поддерживается всё больше игр, что можно отслеживать на ProtonDB, и даже случаются бусты производительности.
▫️ Я сам на днях на виндобук поставил ChacyOS после чего игры, которые тянули гдето в 5-10 FPS, стали играбельными! Подтверждено личным опытом! Кстати, есть несколько дистрибутивов заточенные именно под игры.
▫️ Valve выпускают новую пачку железок которые (предположительно) порвут рынок гейминга (как и в прошлый раз) и (определнно точно) работают на Linux. Именно Valve вливает ресурсы в Linux в целом и в Proton в частности.
▫️ Госсектор разных стран давно уже мигрирует на opensource, так как нет доверия системе которая может одномоментно неконтролируемо массово рухнуть или быть удаленно заблокированной (в том числе по политическим причинам).
И ниже небольшой опрос - какая у вас операционка основная?
Ни к чему не призываю, ничего не советую! Просто подмечаю тенденцию и хочется узнать мнения из первых рук 😉
Знаю, что Linux тоже не идеален, знаю что каждой задаче - свой инструмент. Но это не тема поста, так что можно без холиваров)

📖🇺🇸Brookings Analyzes U.S. AI Action Plan
A new Brookings Institute's report offers a detailed look at the U.S. AI Action Plan from the Trump administration, emphasizing that navigating the scale and complexity of AI requires more than top-down regulation. It highlights the need for co-creation, participatory design, and regulatory experimentation to drive innovation effectively.
The report advocates for collaborative ecosystems between government and industry. I

🇺🇸📖The Backfiring Effect of Weak AI Safety Regulation
A new study from Cornell and Carnegie Mellon warns that poorly designed AI safety regulations may do more harm than good. Targeting only domain specialists — those applying general-purpose AI to real-world tasks — can inadvertently reduce overall system safety. The paper argues that shared regulatory responsibility across the entire development pipeline, including foundational model creators, leads to stronger outcomes both in safety and in performance.
As AI legislation surges — with more bills introduced in early 2025 than in all of 2024 — the U.S. regulatory landscape remains fragmented. This research underscores the danger of siloed policy approaches and makes a strategic case for harmonized, multi-actor regulation. Regulation isn’t just a burden — it’s a coordination tool.

🇺🇸US Senate Passes AI Deepfake Bill
The US Senate has approved the "Take It Down Act", a bipartisan bill co-sponsored by Sens. Ted Cruz and Amy Klobuchar. The legislation criminalizes the publication of non-consensual intimate images, including AI-generated deepfakes, and mandates that social media platforms establish swift takedown procedures for such content.
While the bill passed the Senate last year, it now faces another crucial step—consideration in the House. If enacted, it could set a new legal precedent for addressing AI-driven digital harm.

🇨🇳China Accelerates AI Self-Reliance Strategy
President Xi Jinping has formally declared AI self-sufficiency a national priority, launching a coordinated national effort to develop AI chips, software, and talent. Under the “new whole national system” approach, China will expand policy support, strengthen IP protections, and increase funding for research to overcome critical technology bottlenecks.
Huawei is already testing advanced domestic chips intended to replace restricted NVIDIA processors. Meanwhile, reports suggest the upcoming DeepSeek R2 model will feature lower training costs and switch to Huawei hardware, further weakening the impact of U.S. export controls. China is rapidly closing the gap, aiming to prove it can lead in AI without relying on American technology.

📖Anthropic CEO Warns of Escalating AI Risks in “The Adolescence of Technology”
Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei has published a new essay, “The Adolescence of Technology,” outlining what he sees as the most serious risks posed by advanced AI systems. Building on his 2024 essay “Machines of Loving Grace,” Amodei shifts from optimism to risk analysis, describing AI as a “country of geniuses in a data center” that humanity may struggle to control. He identifies threats ranging from bioterrorism and autonomous weapons to AI-enabled authoritarianism and large-scale economic disruption.
Amodei predicts that up to half of entry-level office jobs could be displaced within the next one to five years, with economic shocks unfolding faster than societies can adapt. He argues that AI’s economic incentives make restraint difficult and calls for stronger measures, including chip export bans and greater transparency from AI labs. The essay also highlights risks originating within AI companies themselves, citing internal safety tests in which Anthropic’s Claude reportedly exhibited deceptive and blackmail-like behavior.

Stanford Warns Against Simplistic AI Thresholds
Greetings dear subscribers! Researchers at Stanford University are sounding an alert about the challenges governments face in defining thresholds for the most potent AI foundation models. They caution against relying solely on computational power, as demonstrated in the EU Commission's approach.
Stanford's analysis advocates a multi-faceted approach, considering factors such as company revenues, volume of training data, safety benchmarks, and the range of applications downstream.

🇪🇺EU AI Act: Stakeholder Feedback Underscores Demand for Clarity and Urgency
The EU AI Office has published its stakeholder consultation results—highlighting widespread concern among developers, companies, and policy observers over unclear definitions and vague prohibitions in the AI Act. While industry voices dominated the feedback, everyday users—those most affected—were largely absent. This imbalance should be taken into account when interpreting the data.
Key demands include sharper definitions of what counts as “AI,” “autonomy,” and “adaptiveness,” and more precise guidance on prohibited practices like manipulation, emotion recognition, and social scoring. Without actionable examples, the current framework risks legal uncertainty. For SMEs, concerns over compliance burdens remain acute. The message is clear: guidance must come fast—or implementation deadlines will arrive before clarity does.

📖Governing AI Agents: Legal and Ethical Challenges
AI is evolving from generative models to autonomous agents that can act with minimal human intervention. These agents can browse the internet, complete tasks, and function as virtual assistants or even coworkers. While the potential is enormous, so are the risks—ranging from accountability gaps to opaque decision-making.
Noam Kolt’s "Governing AI Agents" explores how agency law and economic theory can help address these challenges. Traditional tools like incentive structures and monitoring may be ineffective for AI agents operating at speed and scale. The paper argues for new legal and technical infrastructure to ensure transparency, accountability, and control in AI agent governance. A must-read for those shaping the future of AI regulation.
