Cabinet members receive seals of office after reshuffle
Quick Glance: Simon Harris Becomes Ireland's Youngest Prime Minister
  • Simon Harris has been officially sworn in as Ireland's youngest prime minister, succeeding Leo Varadkar who abruptly stepped down last month. Harris, 37, took the helm of the ruling Fine Gael party but faces challenges as the party trails behind Sinn Fein in polls.

  • A rapid riser in Ireland's political hierarchy, Harris has made a name for himself as Health Minister and most recently as Minister for Higher Education and Science. His political identity as a young politician has been marked by both supporters and critics, particularly standing out with younger voters and on social media platforms like TikTok.

  • Varadkar's government grappled with challenges such as housing crisis and increasing immigration numbers. Harris inherits a tough political landscape, especially with upcoming elections until March 2025. The political landscape in Ireland has shifted, with Sinn Fein emerging as a rising political force, leading to a shift in the traditional party landscape.

  • While Harris sees the idea of a potential reunification of Ireland as a legitimate aspiration, his focus remains on current challenges like housing crisis, rising cost of living, and immigration. Despite political changes and discussions about potential reunification, Ireland's future remains uncertain and complex.

Ireland’s billionaires see wealth grow by more than €15bn last year
Quick Glance: Billionaires Profiting from AI 2024
  • The AI gold rush has led to a plethora of new billionaires in the sector, as surging values for both public and private companies with ties to AI have skyrocketed.

  • Over the past year, tech companies, both new and old, have seen massive share price increases, making the world's tech tycoons even richer and introducing over a dozen new AI billionaires into the Forbes World's Billionaires list.

  • Nvidia cofounder and CEO Jensen Huang serves as the poster child for this boom. However, other companies like Super Micro Computer, Advanced Micro Devices, and Cloudflare also benefited from the trend. Privately owned AI companies have also gained momentum, with AI-centric startups alone raising nearly $50 billion in funding last year.

  • Major tech giants like Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet have significantly contributed to financing private AI companies to compete in the AI race. However, it remains to be seen if and when the AI bubble will burst and funding could dry up.
