Picture this: you're driving down the PCH in a sports car with the top down, hair is blowing in the wind, and then the gas light comes on. You pull into the first gas station you see and a gallon of gas costs $14.99. Okay, maybe I'm exaggerating a little, but California is heading towards a massive energy crisis.

In my books, I highlighted how even a minor, seemingly insignificant event could cripple global maritime shipping. Well, not only did one of those events just happen, three did. We're talking about a Russian cargo ship sinking, Israel targeting the Houthis in Yemen, and Finland impounding a Russian ship.

Today's AI technology, while promising, isn't quite ready for widespread application. I'm not talking so much about AI's capabilities, but rather the hardware limitations and supply chain challenges that are getting in the way.

The Nordic nations are teasing a new initiative of inspecting ships leaving Russia's St. Petersburg port for insurance and environmental compliance. This may seem insignificant, but it could disrupt shipping on a global scale.
