For more than three decades, every generation of communications technology was built with a simple goal: connect more people, devices, and applications. AI fundamentally changes that equation. For the first time, networks are being built around intelligence itself. Every AI interaction relies on thousands of continuous data exchanges between users, cloud platforms, GPUs, models, edge infrastructure, and data centers. As adoption accelerates, the network is no longer just the passive pipe connecting to the AI stack. It is an active, indispensable layer of the stack itself. Under Vision 2030, Saudi Arabia has positioned AI as a cornerstone of its economic…
At first glance, Mohammed Joha’s art appears abstract. There are patches of blue, pink and green against grey, with pieces of fabric, paper and cardboard stitched and layered across the canvas. Look closer and the materials start to tell their own story. Some were salvaged. Others came from Joha’s own clothes. The artist, who was born in Gaza and has lived in Europe for more than two decades, calls the series Houselessness. A part of Joha’s story is his retelling of how his home in Gaza was destroyed in war, burying more than 500 of his paintings beneath the rubble.…
LONDON — A 48-year-old man from Bedfordshire, UK, has become the first patient in the world to have a brain tumor successfully removed while medical teams utilized real-time artificial intelligence during surgery. Surgeons at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery (NHNN), part of University College London Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, operated on Rhys Hibbert using novel technology that helps identify minuscule brain anatomy by color coding, or segmenting, crucial structures to help clinicians recognise them safely. The hospital has been using the technology as a research tool for some time, but the operation conducted in May marked the very…
The invitation to the Flamingo Room comes, misleadingly, with a warning: there are no flamingos. None. Not even a leg, a feather, or a cocktail stick in the shape of one. It’s a little like calling a place The Unicorn Grill and discovering they only serve goat. Years ago, on the roof of Kensington’s Roof Gardens, London, there really were flamingos — louche, pink, and faintly camp birds who looked as if they were waiting for Noël Coward to order a martini. I had assumed, in the way one does, that they had retired to Dubai, as so many Londoners…

September is fashion’s biggest month — the one when the glossies land with a thump, fat with the season’s marching orders. This autumn, apparently, we are all to be swathed in leopard-print coats. A delicious idea, unless you live somewhere the weather app still insists it ‘feels like’ 55°C. In Dubai, our September issue is a more prosaic one: how to be covered, cool, and presentable at the school gate before the bell. And the answer, mercifully, is shorter than usual. Because there’s an equation every Dubai parent solves before coffee: covered enough for the car park, cool enough for…
Across the region – and particularly in Saudi Arabia as it undergoes one of the most ambitious urban transformations in modern history under Vision 2030 – the built environment is transforming drastically. Historically, success in the contracting sector was measured almost exclusively through two basic metrics: speed of completion and scale of output. However, as complex, capital-intensive built assets transition from handovers into active operations, the industry faces a critical realisation. A swift delivery holds little long-term value if an asset suffers from operational friction, spiralling energy costs, maintenance bottlenecks, or premature physical deterioration. As the regional construction landscape matures,…

As someone who chased expensive cars throughout my twenties and early thirties, I have spent a large part of my life thinking about the relationship between wealth, status and happiness. In those early days, if you had told me I relied too heavily on luxury, I would have told you no, I just had good taste. I loved the sound of a beautifully made engine, the design, the engineering and the feeling of sitting behind the wheel of something that represented years of craftsmanship. I still do. There is nothing wrong with appreciating beautiful things, and I still believe working…
