O'Leary warns LLM platforms could start charging airlines distribution fees Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary warned that large language model platforms could begin charging airlines distribution fees, potentially making LLMs the latest target of his criticism of intermediated distribution. The comment flags AI platforms as a possible new cost and competitive pressure for carriers.

Proposal: 'Planetary Neural Network' to Defend AI‑Enabled Space Infrastructure A proposal calls for a 'Planetary Neural Network' — a distributed, AI‑driven system to detect, respond to and mitigate cyber and operational threats against AI‑enabled space assets. The plan urges coordinated defense across satellites, ground stations and operators to protect on‑orbit compute and services.

Air forces must overhaul doctrine to unlock the combat advantage of Collaborative Combat Aircraft Militaries rushing to introduce Collaborative Combat Aircraft risk failing to gain a meaningful combat edge unless they transform their entire operating concept, argues Fahad ibne Masood. He warns that without doctrinal, organisational and operational overhaul, CCA programmes will underdeliver on their promised force‑multiplying effects.
