While many countries are still debating whether students should be allowed to use ChatGPT in the classroom, Estonia has chosen a far more ambitious path. Through AI Leap, the Baltic nation is...

Malta is taking a step that no other country has attempted on this scale so far: the government plans to offer citizens and registered residents a free one-year subscription to ChatGPT Plus. The only requirement is the completion of a short online course in AI literacy. Once completed, participants receive access to a premium AI service that would normally require a monthly subscription.

While many AI companies mainly talk about benchmarks, model sizes and chatbots, is pursuing a far more radical approach: the startup Andon Labs is deploying AI agents into real economic environments with real budgets, real people, real contracts and real consequences.

Agents are widely seen as the next evolution of AI. Systems such as Claude (including Cowork) or automation platforms like n8n promise to plan and execute entire tasks autonomously. Yet this is precisely where a new cost dynamic emerges — one that is catching many organisations off guard in 2026. AI is no longer priced per request, but per underlying computation.

Introducing generative AI is not an IT project. It is a management challenge.
