Woke up late on this lazy Saturday. Made myself a big brunch of eggs and toast. Spent the afternoon reading a thrilling novel on the balcony. Later, my friend called and we decided to meet at a café. We chatted for hours, catching up on each other’s lives. Ended the day with a movie at home. It was a perfect, laid-back day.

Porsche 911 Carrera-Inspired Electric Café Racer Concept
Designers Piano Marek and Radek Stepan have envisioned an electric café racer that encapsulates the essence of the Porsche 911 Carrera. The motorcycle features sleek, aerodynamic lines reminiscent of the Carrera’s iconic silhouette, with a minimalist tail and a monolithic silver finish.
Notably, it integrates a Harman/Kardon speaker system that emulates the distinctive roar of a Porsche flat-six engine, ensuring the electric drivetrain retains the brand’s signature sound. This concept seamlessly blends Porsche’s design philosophy with innovative technology, offering a fresh perspective on performance aesthetics.

The EU AI Act, effective February 2, 2025, introduces a groundbreaking regulatory framework for artificial intelligence in the European Union. It bans AI systems deemed to pose “unacceptable risks,” such as manipulative systems, social scoring, real-time biometric identification in public spaces, and emotion recognition in sensitive contexts like education and workplaces. The Act aims to protect fundamental rights while fostering innovation.
Enforcement includes significant penalties for non-compliance, with fines reaching up to €35 million or 7% of global turnover. National authorities will oversee implementation, supported by the European Artificial Intelligence Board. The Act follows a phased timeline: transparency rules take effect in August 2025, and full provisions are enforced by August 2026.
The primary goals are to ensure trustworthy AI development, enhance transparency and accountability, and position the EU as a leader in ethical AI regulation.
