Russia has been attacking Ukrainian data centers in Kyiv trying to knock out their internet. So Ukraine attacked Russia's largest Yandex data center and burned the place to the ground.

Trump's pushing the term "super intelligence" is stupid for many reasons (not least because "superintelligence" was already a term with a specific meaning in semi-technical and policy/philosophical discussions about AI). But now his bullying about it is reaching an Orwellian pitch.
A Trump Truth Social post dated 8 October 2026, reading: "The White House considers anyone that uses the term, 'Artificial Intelligence,' as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, 'Super Intelligence,' THE ENEMY! President DONALD J. TRUMP" (https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/117406176604364910). That post is quote-tweeted by @josephpolitano.bsky.social on the same day with the message: "Again he’s really losing it with the AI stuff now." And that, in turn, is quote-tweeted by @sky.skymarchini.net also on the same day, in two messages that read (combined) as follows: "Yeah, so, I work for an organization with federal government contracts and, the White House is not actually joking about this. It’s (probably) not at an 'I will I get fired if I put "artificial intelligence" in an email' level but the WH is making clear that the expectation is to use Trump’s politically correct terminology in public communication."
