    The case for United Nations leadership on AI (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Artificial intelligence has reached a critical point. Dario Amodei, chief executive of Anthropic, has urged frontier AI companies to slow the advance of their models because safeguards are falling behind. His warning reflects a wider unease within the industry, where researchers are asking whether self-improving systems and increasingly autonomous agents could slip beyond human control. Catastrophe is not inevitable, and apocalyptic claims remain unproven. Even so, policymakers cannot ignore the

    Africa is bigger than we think (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    At first glance, the United Nations General Assembly's vote on 4 September 2026 to promote maps that show countries and continents in more accurate proportions may seem like a technical matter mainly for cartographers. But it was more than that. We have long associated size with power and the vote might help change how the world sees Africa. With 164 votes to one and six abstentions, member states endorsed an Africa-led resolution championed by Togo and backed by the African Union. The resolutio

    When the final whistle blew at the New York New Jersey Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey, relief came before celebration. The best team had won the 2026 Fifa World Cup. That mattered because this was no ordinary tournament. It was the first men's World Cup to feature 48 teams, spread across 16 host cities in Canada, Mexico and the United States and to end with its 104th match. In a competition designed to multiply uncertainty, Spain supplied the antidote: clarity. To call any side 'the best

    The mind games behind the beautiful game (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Football is often admired for the virtues it appears to reward: technique, speed, stamina, and tactical intelligence. Yet in elite football’s decisive moments, another contest unfolds beneath the surface. Players test nerves. Referees set—or fail to set—the limits of acceptable conduct. Crowds thicken the air. Technology interrupts the pulse of the match. The result is a sport that is never merely physical. At its highest level, football is also a contest of nerves—a mind game played beneath the

    South Africa's debt to Africa (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    South Africa's freedom was never a purely South African achievement. The country liberated by African solidarity should not allow anger over migration to become an alibi for vigilantism. That is the uncomfortable truth that Nelson Mandela International Day should force the continent to remember. On 18 July, the world honours Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela. But the day should be more than a ritual of admiration. It should be a test of memory — and of political conscience. Mandela's legacy is often sof
