techcrunch.com Tim De Chant 2025-09-25 13:01:41

This week, OpenAI and Oracle shocked the markets with a surprise $300 billion, five-year agreement, part of a surge of new business that sent the cloud provider’s stock skyrocketing.

Funding Open Source like public infrastructure

To protect the digital foundation of essential government services, governments should invest in Open Source as public infrastructure and shift from consumption to contribution. Fifteen years ago, I laid out a theory about the future of Open Source. In The Commercialization of a Volunteer-Driven Open Source Project, I argued that if Open Source was going to thrive, people had to get paid to work on it. At the time, the idea was controversial.

"The competition for AGI—AI that surpasses humans at all cognitive tasks—is of fundamental geopolitical importance." That's The Economist, last week. Not some breathless tech blogger or venture capitalist talking their book. The world's most prestigious economic publication. Notice the framing - it treats AGI as a foregone geopolitical contest. They're not wrong about the competition. They're just wrong about what we're competing for. I started coding again last year. First time in 13 years.
