⚙️ Palantir has introduced Maven Smart System — a full-fledged “brain” for modern warfare. It turns airstrikes into a process resembling task management in a video game.

A commander opens a live satellite map, selects a target, and the system instantly draws the blast radius, suggests the optimal weapon — from a missile to a bomb — and creates a task card. Everything happens in a single interface where the entire cycle is visible: from detection to strike.

🛰 Maven Smart System is a SaaS platform developed by Palantir and deployed across U.S. military structures. It integrates data streams from drones, satellites, sensors, and intercepted communications — hundreds of sources simultaneously. What previously required thousands of analysts and hours of processing can now be done by AI in minutes.

⚡ In Iran, the system reportedly demonstrated its capabilities: during the first 24 hours of Operation “Epic Fury”, it helped coordinate strikes on 1,000 targets — twice the number hit during the first day of the “Shock and Awe” campaign in Iraq in 2003. By the tenth day, the number had reached 5,000 targets, with the goal of eventually reaching 1,000 strikes per hour.

📋 The workflow resembles a Kanban board: task cards move through columns such as “detected,” “priority,” “in progress,” and “completed.” Each card represents a target with GPS coordinates, weapon recommendations, damage estimates, and even automated legal justification under the laws of war. Drone or satellite footage streams in real time until the moment of impact.

🎮 Commanders effectively oversee the battlefield like in a strategy game — seeing the entire operational picture, issuing orders with a click, and minimizing mistakes.

📈 This radically changes warfare. Palantir’s system accelerates decision-making, reduces human error, and increases precision. Around 20 operators using Maven can reportedly replace up to 2,000 high-level military analysts. The system is not autonomous — a human still authorizes the strike — but AI performs around 90% of the analytical work, identifying targets, prioritizing them, and suggesting options.

🧠 Integration with Claude by Anthropic adds reasoning capabilities: the system not only detects targets but also assesses context, threat levels, and potential consequences.

For the United States, this creates a significant operational advantage. While adversaries may respond with sporadic strikes, systems like Maven allow the U.S. military to operate faster and at greater scale.

🌍 The world is entering an era where war is increasingly managed by software as much as by hardware. Maven demonstrates a new reality: whoever controls data and AI may control the battlefield.

📚 The UK’s Society of Authors (SoA) — an association of writers, illustrators, and translators — has introduced the Human Authored logo. It will help readers identify books written by humans amid the growing number of publications created with the help of artificial intelligence.

The new initiative, announced by writer Tracy Chevalier at the London Book Fair, allows authors to register their works and place the corresponding badge on the back cover of their books.

⚠️ According to the SoA, the lack of government requirements to label AI-generated content makes it increasingly difficult for readers to distinguish human work from machine-generated material.

📱 “How to use a phone in central Moscow?

• As a ping-pong paddle
• To smash cucumbers for a salad
• To make trendy ankle weights

😄 There’s always a way!

[⚠️ Context — The joke refers to the recent mobile internet outages in central Moscow, which the Kremlin said were imposed for security reasons and which disrupted messaging, uploads, and app-based services across the city. In Russia, sudden failures of basic digital infrastructure often produce a fast cycle of dry, absurdist humor online.
⚠️ Why it matters — The punchline lands because a smartphone in Moscow is no longer just a phone but a tool for transport, payments, and daily coordination, so even short outages are felt immediately. For Russian audiences, the meme captures a familiar reflex: when the system stops working, irony starts working overtime. ]

💬
— Why are you against the war with Iran?
— Why?
— Yes, I just want to know.

— There was no need to start this war. This war was unnecessary. And that means, by definition, you are killing people without sufficient reason. They didn’t attack us.

If anything, my parents lived through World War II. That generation considered it immoral that Japanese diplomats were in Washington at the very moment Pearl Harbor happened. It was disgusting!

We were negotiating with them, and they stabbed us in the back.

⚠️ That’s exactly what we did to Iran. We attacked them in the middle of negotiations.

We behaved exactly like the Japanese fascists of the 1940s.
