2026년 삼성 언팩 행사를 통해 베일을 벗은 Galaxy S26 시리즈는 기술적 진보라는 찬사 뒤에 가려진 거센 비판에 직면했습니다. 특히 새롭게 탑재된 AI 카메라 기능은 우리가 수십 년간 지켜온 사진의 개념을 완전히 뒤흔들고 있습니다. 단순히 보정을 넘어 실체를 왜곡한다는

This week’s links explore creative software loyalty, eye-watering AI infrastructure spending, sensible security principles, and a rare dose of honesty about AI’s uncertain future.

Each Sunday Paper shares links and ideas that caught my attention, with brief personal reflections. * * * “Affinity Studio vs Adobe Creative Cloud for creative pros: It just got real” lays out why Canva’s newly free Affinity Studio still can’t replace Adobe’s ecosystem. Affinity lacks a proper digital asset manager—which is precisely why I’ve stuck with Lightroom since 2010. Why bin fifteen years of workflow muscle memory to start from scratch? “OpenAI and Amazon strike $38 billion agreement” reports that OpenAI will spend $38 billion on AWS over seven years, part of a staggering $1.4 trillion infrastructure shopping spree. Some analysts reckon we’re witnessing an AI bubble. Hard to disagree when the spending outpaces any visible path to profit. “Security principles guiding 1Password’s approach to AI” outlines how 1Password keeps secrets secret when AI gets involved: encryption is non-negotiable, raw credentials never touch LLM context, and authorisation must be deterministic, not probabilistic. Refreshingly sensible in an age where “AI-powered” usually means “we’ll sort out security later.” When a researcher from DeepSeek took the stage for the startup’s first public appearance, you might have expected a victory lap. Instead, he warned that while AI’s progress is impressive, its impact on society could be “negative” — think mass job losses in five to ten years, and “big problems” within twenty. It’s rare to see a company temper its own hype so publicly. Most would have cut that line before the slides. Still, honesty this early in the AI arms race feels like a twist: the doomsayer is also the inventor. ### Like this: Like Loading...
