AI promises to let startups do more with fewer people, but the plunge in unicorn headcounts may owe as much to VC hype as to real productivity gains. Is the world’s first solo unicorn not too far away? In some ways, it’s already happened.

Dani Rodrik: Artificial intelligence was meant to assist human work, not replace our thinking
AI’s impact on jobs is a valid concern, but a bigger risk looms: its takeover of human thought. Letting AI do our brain-work will atrophy our ability to think and incentive to learn. We need norms that will help us harness its power without losing our capacity to expand and use knowledge.

Casualty of war: A country whose leader needs to keep claiming victory is unlikely to be winning

The US blockade of Hormuz seems aimed at China too. Here's why it's unlikely to work
While the US decision to block access to Iranian ports aims to clamp Iran’s oil and gas exports, it’s China that will lose some of its supply. The People’s Republic has vast buffer stocks, though. So if America’s ploy is to have Beijing lean on Tehran, it looks like a non-starter.

Clean energy reduces hydrocarbon dependence but that’s unlikely to make the world more peaceful
A green shift away from hydrocarbons may reduce reliance on oil and thus chokepoints like Hormuz, but it won’t necessarily end energy wars. As nations chase self-sufficiency and strategic autonomy, the clean-energy transition could even reshape rivalries in ways that make conflict more likely.
