Nov. 23, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — What are Digital Twins?
A Digital Twin is a virtual replica of a physical object, system, or process that uses real-time data to accurately reflect its real-world counterpart’s behavior, performance, and conditions.
It creates a dynamic link between the physical world and the digital world, allowing for continuous monitoring, simulation, and analysis. Continue reading
Nov. 23, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — ExperienceBypass™, an advisory firm, announced their new report titled “The Real AI Bubble.” This report, authored by CEO Honorio J. Padron, warns that the AI market faces a structural collapse, arguing the actual bubble is architectural, not financial. The core thesis is that tens of thousands of smaller AI point solution companies will disappear over the next 36 to 48 months as global enterprises consolidate their technology around a few AI Native Platforms (or “AI Factories”) such as NVIDIA and Palantir. This consolidation is driven by the failure of most enterprise AI pilots and a demand for unified architecture, mirroring the standardisation seen in the ERP sector during the 1990s. Padron asserts that non-integrated point solutions lack a place as the AI Enabled Enterprise™ becomes the new operating model, acting as the central nervous system for modern businesses.

Nov. 22, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — We are currently in the foundational or emergence phase of the Autonomous Economy. It is no longer a futuristic concept; it is actively being built and deployed, though the full, ubiquitous vision of a global, self-regulating autonomous economy is still years away.
Many experts compare the current state of the Autonomous Economy to the Internet in the early 1990s—the core technologies and infrastructure are being established, and we are seeing the first truly disruptive commercial applications emerge. Continue reading
Nov. 21, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — That phrase, “AI is eating crypto’s lunch,” generally refers to the current trend where Artificial Intelligence (AI) development and related companies are attracting significantly more investor capital and attention than the cryptocurrency and blockchain sectors.
However, the reality is more nuanced than a zero-sum competition, and both areas are also seeing convergence. Continue reading
Nov. 21, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — Despite the name, Google Antigravity is not a physics experiment; it’s a revolutionary new AI-powered development platform for software engineers.
It’s an “agent-first” system that uses autonomous AI agents (primarily powered by Gemini 3 Pro) to plan, execute, and verify complex software tasks across the editor, terminal, and browser. It shifts the developer’s role from writing every line of code to acting as an architect or orchestrator. Continue reading
Nov. 21, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — Africa, particularly the Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) and Middle East and North Africa (MENA) regions, features prominently in the report’s analysis of global instability and conflict, often ranking among the world’s least peaceful and most conflict-affected areas.
The overall trend shows a continuous decline in peacefulness for both regions, marked by severe conflicts, rising geopolitical competition, and acute economic stressors. Continue reading
Nov. 18, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — The report offers an extensive analysis of the current state of global peace, highlighting a deterioration in peacefulness for the sixth consecutive year, driven primarily by increases in Ongoing Conflict and Militarisation. It details rising geopolitical fragmentation, an increase in the number of internationalised conflicts, and a major jump in global military spending to a record $2.7 trillion in 2024. The report also examines the economic impact of violence, noting it reached $19.97 trillion and that developing countries are heavily burdened by debt, often spending more on servicing it than on public services, leading to increased domestic conflict risk in regions like Sub-Saharan Africa and the Middle East. Finally, the analysis identifies nine key factors that escalate conflict intensity and uses case studies—such as the Tigray War and the Kashmir conflict—to illustrate the risks of future large-scale violence.
