WulfyAI isn't going anywhere. Time to get strategic: Instead of mourning lost critical thinking skills, let's build on them through cognitive delegation—using AI as a thinking partner, not a replacement.This isn't some Silicon Valley fantasy: Three decades of cognitive research already mapped out how this works:Cognitive Load Theory: Our brains can only juggle so much at once. Let AI handle the grunt work while you focus on making meaningful connections.Distributed Cognition: Naval crews don't navigate with individual genius—they spread thinking across people, instruments, and procedures. AI becomes another crew member in your cognitive system.Zone of Proximal Development We learn best with expert guidance bridging what we can't quite do alone. AI can serve as that "more knowledgeable other" (though it's still early days).

Gabor HraskoIt’s been a month since I began my transition from big tech systems – marked by this banner on my Facebook account: “I’m more and more elsewhere…” Now building on Mastodon, Threema, Pixelfed etc. See my new blog & initiative for context: <a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net</a>Any advice for me and my fellow followers from Facebook on how to effectively rebuild initial networks here (or across the Fediverse) is very welcome!<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/EDAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EDAI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DigitalSovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DigitalSovereignty</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/EuropeanAlternatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#EuropeanAlternatives</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/DigitalMigration" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DigitalMigration</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/PlatformShift" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PlatformShift</a>

ghraskoOver the past few weeks, I’ve received a number of encouraging responses to my posts and articles about the <a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/edai/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">European Digital Autonomy Initiative</a> (EDAI). Many of you appreciated the focus on European or open-source alternatives, the importance of using privacy-respecting services, or the need for stronger EU policy and public funding in this field.All of that is great — and yes, it is part of the vision.But if I may be honest: I have the feeling that my core message may not have come through clearly yet.What is the actual novelty here?I do not claim to be the first or the only one working on these questions. Quite the opposite: I now realise how many excellent initiatives already exist. Many people and organisations have long been developing European alternatives, advocating for open technologies, or working on digital sovereignty policies. I salute that.The EDAI is not meant to replace any of these. It is meant to connect them.My approach is not about a single issue or a specific action. It is about seeing these efforts as parts of a larger system. A system that has been missing from most public debates: a strategic framework that connects awareness, governance, and innovation.I call these the <a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/edai/initiative/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">three pillars</a> of European Digital Autonomy:<ul><li><a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/edai/initiative/awareness-and-engagement/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Awareness & Engagement</a>: digital culture, visibility, user habits, values</li><li><a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/edai/initiative/policy-and-funding/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Policy & Funding</a>: institutions, regulations, incentives, coordination</li><li><a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/edai/initiative/innovation-and-ecosystem-building/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Innovation & Ecosystem</a>: tools, platforms, open standards, services</li></ul>Many initiatives already operate in one or two of these domains. But what I haven’t seen — and what I believe could make a real difference — is a shared framework where we see how these elements reinforce each other.A better search engine is great. So is better funding regulation. So is media literacy. But the breakthrough will only come when these things are mutually catalytic.From independence to interdependenceEveryone will naturally focus on what they know best. A coder will code. A researcher will analyse. An activist will mobilise. That’s how it should be.But if we want more than partial improvements — if we want strategic change — we need to understand how all these efforts fit together. That’s what the EDAI attempts to provide: a systemic lens and a space to align our steps.It doesn’t mean giving up independence. It means recognising interdependence.If this speaks to you, stay tuned. In the coming days, I will ask for your thoughts on how we might go about finding collaborators for this idea within the Fediverse community. It’s not a fully-formed plan yet — and that’s exactly why your input could make a real difference.Follow me on Mastodon: <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/@techtonicshift" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">TechTonicShift (@TechTonicShift@vivaldi.net) – Vivaldi Social</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/@ghrasko" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Gabor Hrasko (@ghrasko@mastodon.social) – Mastodon</a><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/edai/" target="_blank">#EDAI</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/digitalsovereignty/" target="_blank">#DigitalSovereignty</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/europeanalternatives/" target="_blank">#EuropeanAlternatives</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/techforeurope/" target="_blank">#TechForEurope</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/opensource/" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/digitalautonomy/" target="_blank">#DigitalAutonomy</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/europeanvalues/" target="_blank">#EuropeanValues</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/buyeuropean/" target="_blank">#BuyEuropean</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/techtonicshift/" target="_blank">#TechTonicShift</a><a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/2025/05/11/the-bigger-picture/" class="" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/2025/05/11/the-bigger-picture/</a><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/buyeuropean/" target="_blank">#BuyEuropean</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/digitalautonomy/" target="_blank">#DigitalAutonomy</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/digitalsovereignty/" target="_blank">#DigitalSovereignty</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/edai/" target="_blank">#EDAI</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/europeanalternatives/" target="_blank">#EuropeanAlternatives</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/europeanvalues/" target="_blank">#EuropeanValues</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/opensource/" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/techforeurope/" target="_blank">#TechForEurope</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/tag/techtonicshift/" target="_blank">#TechTonicShift</a>

ghrasko<blockquote>“Meta invests $72 billion, where are the European tech giants? Bureaucrats can’t match Elon Musk. Europe has no unicorns, no AI centers, no talent cult. Maybe we’re just not made for this.”</blockquote>I recently heard this reaction to my <a href="https://techtonicshift.vivaldi.net/edai/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">European Digital Autonomy Initiative</a> (EDAI). It’s not ill-willed — it’s a brutally honest summary of the skepticism many feel. And you know what? I get it. That’s exactly my starting point.My EDAI doesn’t pretend that Europe is leading the digital race today. We’re not. But accepting this reality isn’t the same as surrendering to it.Europe doesn’t need to copy Silicon Valley. We don’t need to outspend Meta or worship “techbro” hustle culture. What we do need is to recognize that this is not just a technological game — it’s a cultural and political one too.Our digital ecosystem should reflect who we are: privacy-conscious, democratic, multilingual, inclusive. It’s not naïve to build on those values — it’s strategic. Long-term trust and legitimacy matter.Yes, we lack the capital of the Big Five. But we have regulation, infrastructure, community, and a vision of the public good. That’s a different kind of power.So no, we’re not going to give up. And no, I’m not walking away. I’m building — slowly, collaboratively, and with purpose.
