Published on 11/02/2026 – 14:01 GMT+1 Technology giant Cisco is painting a bold vision for artificial intelligence (AI), not just as a corporate utility, but also as an existential necessity that will change the way we work. In a striking revelation at a recent AI Summit in Amsterdam, Cisco’s president, Jeetu Patel, told Euronews Next that the company has already developed a product that is written with 100 percent AI-generated code. “By the end of ’26, we’ll have at least half a dozen products written with AI only,” he said.

Doyle served as Starmer’s first director of communications in Downing Street. His life peerage in the House of Lords was announced in December, and he joined the unelected chamber last month. “I think No. 10 did not know before they made the decision to give him the peerage,” one of Starmer’s ministers, Georgia Gould, told Sky News earlier on Wednesday morning when challenged on whether Downing Street knew Doyle had campaigned for Morton before giving him a peerage. “But I think the prime minister has looked at this afresh, given the commitment that he has made to ensure the highest…

Warning: This article contains references to suicide, drug use, and descriptions of crime scenes. When Nirvana frontman and grunge legend Kurt Cobain died on 5 April 1997 at the age of 27, the music world mourned the death of a beloved rock star and a Generation X icon.

PARIS — French Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said in an interview Wednesday that he could “not rule out” the possibility that more French diplomats are in the Epstein files after revelations emerged of a former envoy who was allegedly in close contact with the convicted sex offender. The allegations regarding the former French diplomat, which emerged Tuesday in French media, prompted Barrot to report the individual to the justice system, launch an internal probe and a disciplinary process — which could affect the individual’s lifelong privileges enjoyed by civil servants — the top French diplomat said on X. Barrot…
Establishing a “Made in Europe” preference in public contracts is a “fine line to walk”, Ursula von der Leyen has warned on the eve of an informal summit of European Union leaders where the divisive topic is set to be firmly on the table. “I believe that in strategic sectors, European preference is a necessary instrument that will contribute to strengthen Europe’s own production base.

To better understand how this symbiosis of state needs and profit-driven investment works in Kazakhstan we sat down with the Chairman of the Management Board…
Attacking the climate is nothing new for Donald Trump and his administration. The US has slowly been peeling away from acknowledging its involvement in the climate crisis, despite being the world’s second-largest annual emitter of greenhouse gases and, historically, the largest contributor to global warming. It has stopped sending delegates to COP talks, scrubbed all mention of fossil fuels from its Environmental Protection Agency’s website and scaled back on environmental protection. Meanwhile, Trump has been criticising the renewable energy boom and taking his “drill baby drill” attitude global. So, here is everything the POTUS has done so far in 2026.…
