3 Shifts Edition (Mar 28 2025): OpenAI and advanced image generation, Europe's defense mobilization, China’s commercial space industry

Hi everyone – welcome to your 3 Shifts Edition [AI-generated audio version].First, OpenAI’s new image-generation feature is shockingly useful. It will actually follow the user’s direction as you iterate on a piece of work – instead of having to continually spin the roulette wheel and hope it spits out something useful.Next, Europe is finally serious on defense – with Germany, France, and the broader EU rolling out big spending packages in response to Trump’s reorientation and Russia’s looming shadow. The reshaping of the US-EU relationship is having unforeseen consequences, such as EU nations looking to expand their nuclear arsenals.Finally, China is putting billions into reusable rockets, with the aim of building a SpaceX-style commercial space industry. With an array of startups and state-backed giants pushing on reusable vehicles and megaconstellations, it looks like China will be making low-earth orbit a much more crowded place. Enjoy.– TamSign up for free briefs written by real people on 6Pages.com
