Opposition says Artificial Intelligence is already reshaping industries, workplaces, and economies around the world – but our Government is ill-prepared
Statement by Ben Smith, Leader of the Opposition:
The Government has failed to prepare for the potential impact of Artificial Intelligence’s impact on Bermudian jobs, says Opposition Leader Ben Smith.
“On the House Floor I asked the Honourable Premier whether the Government has completed, commissioned, or scheduled a Bermuda-specific assessment of how artificial intelligence may affect the Bermudian labour market, including administrative, clerical, financial, insurance, professional and public-service roles, and future demand for skills, hiring and workforce retraining.
“He conceded that no plan yet exists to ensure Bermudians have the skills necessary to compete and succeed in an AI-driven economy,” says Mr Smith.
“Artificial intelligence is not a future issue. It is a present reality that is already reshaping industries, workplaces, and economies around the world, including here in Bermuda.
“Bermuda’s economy depends heavily on professional services, international business, and administrative roles. These are jobs global experts believe will be significantly impacted by AI over the coming decade.”
Mr Smith adding: “The vital question is whether Bermuda is actively preparing for the present and future impact of AI, or will it simply be reacting to these changes.
“Our young people, workers, and employers should be concerned that the PLP Government has failed completely to prepare for the potential impact of artificial intelligence on Bermudian jobs.
“The Premier’s response to my questions reveals the PLP government has yet to prepare for changes already present and expanding very quickly. Working to ensure that Bermuda is ready for the impact of AI should be a national priority, not an afterthought.”

Cybersecurity experts are concerned Anthropic’s Mythos, developed to find coding flaws to bolster cyberdefences, could potentially turbo-charge attacks on the very systems it aims to protect
International News via Reuters:
French President Emmanuel Macron said on Wednesday he believed progress would be made in coming weeks on broadening access to leading U.S. AI models, as G7 leaders pledged closer coordination on the risks and opportunities of frontier AI.
Macron’s comments came as G7 leaders, who had gathered for the June 15 to 17 Group of Seven summit in the French resort of Evian-les-Bains, discussed the creation of a “trusted partners” scheme granting access for non-U.S. nations to advanced U.S. AI models from firms like Anthropic.
Cybersecurity experts are concerned Anthropic’s Mythos, developed to find coding flaws to bolster cyberdefences, could potentially turbo-charge attacks on the very systems it aims to protect. Last week, U.S. President Donald Trump told Anthropic to block foreign nationals from accessing its advanced models, citing national security concerns.
That move spurred G7 discussions on the creation of the “trusted partners” scheme, which could open a path around the U.S. restrictions. The “trusted partners” could be countries or companies, Reuters reported on Tuesday, and would allow them to use the models to develop stronger cybersecurity defences against rivals like China.
REGULATING AI
Macron said it was in Washington’s interest to make Mythos more broadly available, as nobody would buy U.S. AI if there were fears it could be shut off at any moment.
Europe is struggling to balance a push for greater tech sovereignty, while also keeping pace with technological advances largely led by U.S. tech firms that dominate cloud computing, semiconductor design and cutting-edge AI research.
In a joint statement on Wednesday, G7 leaders said they would task finance officials, regulators and cybersecurity experts with assessing how frontier AI models could impact financial stability, productivity and labour markets.
AI executives from Anthropic, OpenAI and Google, which are all developing highly advanced models, attended a working lunch on Wednesday at the G7 to discuss regulation and AI infrastructure.
At the lunch, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman urged the G7 to take control of AI governance. He said the debate over whether AI is useful was over and that far more powerful systems would emerge, potentially reshaping the global economy and scientific discovery. But he added that it was for democratic governments — not AI companies — to decide how it is governed.
“Do not cede your responsibilities to AI labs like mine,” he said. “We develop the technology, and the citizens of the free world make the rules.”
EUROPE STRIVES TO FIND RIGHT TECH BALANCE
European policymakers have increasingly framed AI as a matter of economic and national security. The European Commission recently unveiled plans for AI “gigafactories” and large-scale computing infrastructure designed to provide the region with sovereign access to computing power.
It has proposed laws to boost domestic cloud, AI and semiconductor industries and cut reliance on U.S. Big Tech, although critics say Europe remains years behind U.S. rivals.
Speaking at the tech leaders’ lunch, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said it was in the mutual interest of the U.S. and the European Union for the EU to use the best AI models, while praising U.S. moves to ensure AI firms acted responsibly when introducing powerful new models.
“We use each other’s trusted technology, and our financial systems are interconnected,” she said.

The Australian carrier plans to start selling tickets in February and launch the flights in October 2027, CEO Vanessa Hudson told an event in Toulouse, France
International News via Reuters:
Qantas Airways on Wednesday announced London as the first destination for the world’s longest non-stop commercial flight, a roughly 20-hour trip from Sydney eliminating the traditional stopover on the “Kangaroo Route”.
The Australian carrier plans to start selling tickets in February and launch the flights in October 2027, CEO Vanessa Hudson told an event in Toulouse, France.
The flights are part of the airline’s “Project Sunrise” initiative, which will also serve New York using modified Airbus A350-1000ULR jets capable of flying up to 22 hours with 238 passengers on board.
The announcement is part of a fleet overhaul that began in 2017 when Qantas challenged Airbus and Boeing to develop planes capable of ultra-long-haul, non-stop routes from Australia.
“Australia’s distance from the rest of the world should never stand in the way,” Hudson said, before unveiling one of the modified Airbus jets, fresh from the paint shop and yet to have its Rolls-Royce XWB-97 engines installed.
Qantas named Project Sunrise after the airline’s double sunrise endurance flights during World War Two, which remained airborne long enough to see two sunrises.
The aim is to cut what was once a five-day trek on the “Kangaroo Route” to London to a single hop of 19 to 21 hours, depending on routing and winds. Qantas will use polar routes about a quarter of the time, especially during the northern winter. The trip now takes some 24 to 25 hours via Singapore.
It is a major gamble for Qantas, involving billions of dollars in aircraft, cabin upgrades and research into passenger health on ultra-long flights.
To succeed it must convince travellers to pay more to avoid layovers, while minimising the discomfort from long flights. Qantas has participated in academic research on jet lag, exercise, hydration, lighting and meal times, Hudson said.
“What they are selling is time, and they absolutely need to get a premium on all the cabins, particularly business and premium economy,” said aviation analyst John Strickland.
NEW ROUTES
Hudson said Qantas hopes to replicate the roughly 20% premium it has achieved across all four cabins on Perth-London flights versus one-stop routes.
Qantas has temporarily rerouted the Perth-London service via Singapore because of disruption in Middle East airspace.
“We will return our network to where it was prior to the war when things settle down,” Hudson said, without giving a timeframe.
Qantas has estimated Project Sunrise could add more than A$400 million ($283 million) a year to earnings.
Jefferies analysts have said they expect a positive market for Project Sunrise flights to London.
Gulf carriers such as Emirates, which redrew the aviation map around their hubs, are expected to defend their market share. Australia on Wednesday lifted a months-long “do not travel” warning on Gulf hubs that had invalidated most travel insurance policies even for transit passengers.
Airbus won the Project Sunrise order in 2019 after an intense battle with Boeing’s 777X.
Earlier this month, Airbus carried out the first test flight for one of 12 modified A350-1000ULR planes ordered by Qantas.
The 238-seat planes feature an extra rear-centre fuel tank helping to increase the range by 1,000 nautical miles (1,852 km) to 10,000 nautical miles. Flights are so long that much of the fuel is used merely to carry the weight of the remaining fuel.
Half of the 12 new jets will serve the ultra-long-haul London and New York markets. The rest may replace Boeing 787s on other long routes such as Perth-London or Auckland-New York, freeing those aircraft to open new routes, Hudson said. Chicago has long been on Qantas’ watch list among other destinations.
The first aircraft is due for delivery in April 2027, about five years later than originally expected due to the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain delays.
Reuters reported this month that Qantas is in talks to buy 20 more wide-body jets from Airbus or Boeing, with the smaller A350-900 or more Boeing 787s under consideration.

Committee members’ projections in March showed most expected to cut rates
International News via Reuters:
Major stock indexes and the U.S. dollar edged up on Wednesday ahead of Kevin Warsh’s debut as Federal Reserve chair, and oil prices gained as doubts arose about the U.S.-Iran peace deal.
The Fed is expected to hold interest rates steady at the end of the first meeting chaired by Warsh, with a new policy statement and economic projections likely to reflect growing concern about the inflation stoked by the Iran war even with the recent peace deal.
Committee members’ projections in March showed most expected to cut rates.
“This is Warsh’s first time as Fed chair and there’s a lot of anticipation on not what he will do today… but his communication,” said Adam Sarhan, CEO of 50 Park Investments in New York.
U.S. President Donald Trump said his new ceasefire agreement with Iran was not final and he could resume the war if he is unsatisfied. Israel launched fresh airstrikes in Lebanon.
Oil prices rose after falling earlier this week. Lower prices had begun to ease worries about an economic slowdown especially in energy-importing Europe. The International Energy Agency said the oil market will move into a significant supply surplus in 2027 after recovering from the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.
U.S. crude rose 0.85% to $76.70 a barrel and Brent rose to $79.51 per barrel, up 0.7% on the day.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 202.89 points, or 0.39%, to 52,202.56, the S&P 500 rose 6.80 points, or 0.09%, to 7,518.15 and the Nasdaq Composite rose 17.05 points, or 0.07%, to 26,393.40.
MSCI’s gauge of stocks across the globe rose 2.81 points, or 0.25%, to 1,131.11. The pan-European STOXX 600 index rose 0.52%.
Shares of BMW fell after the German automaker slashed its 2026 outlook, citing a downturn in China and the impact of the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran.
SpaceX shares were down for the first time since the stock’s market debut last Friday. The stock was last down 2.3%.
DOLLAR HOLDS FIRM
The anticipation of what Warsh will say held the dollar firmer.
The dollar index, which measures the greenback against a basket of currencies including the yen and the euro, rose 0.14% to 99.69, with the euro down 0.14% at $1.1591.Against the Japanese yen, the dollar weakened 0.16% to 160.19.
The yield on benchmark U.S. 10-year notes rose 0.75 basis point to 4.436%, from 4.428% late on Tuesday.
Cooling inflation expectations lifted euro zone government bonds for a fifth day, their longest rally since February, driving 10-year German yields, the bloc’s benchmark, to their lowest since early April.

A reminder issued on the importance of public participation in the 2026 Census
Every household in Bermuda has a role to play in shaping the future of our island, and one of the most important ways to do that is by participating in the Census.
The Census helps us better understand who we are, how we live, and what our communities need. It provides essential information about Bermuda’s population, households, and living conditions, helping Government, businesses, community organisations, and other decision-makers plan effectively for the community.
When residents participate in the Census, they help ensure that decisions are based on accurate and up-to-date information. This matters because the data collected can influence planning for housing, education, healthcare, employment, community services, and other areas that affect our daily lives.
For the Government, Census information supports stronger policymaking. It helps identify trends, gaps, and needs across the island. For businesses, it provides insight into communities, the workforce, and future opportunities. For non-profit and community organisations, it helps guide programmes and services that address the realities residents face.
In short, the Census helps Bermuda plan with purpose.
Participation is also about fairness. The more complete the Census is, the clearer the picture of Bermuda becomes. Every household counted helps ensure that the needs of families, seniors, young people, workers, and communities across the island are properly understood. When people do not participate, it can leave gaps in the information used to make important decisions.
On May 11, 2026, households were mailed a letter with login instructions to the questionnaire at census.gov.bm. If you are missing your census letter or your e-Census password, please email the Department of Statistics at census@gov.bm or call 297-7761:
Weekdays between 10:00 a.m. and 8:30 p.m., excluding public holidays and
Weekends between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
The first round of Census submissions will be completed online from May 21 to July 31, 2026. Households are encouraged to submit as soon as possible during this period.
Completing the Census online is the easiest way to participate and can also help avoid the need for someone to visit your home to interview your household. After July 31, 2026, the remaining interviews will be facilitated by an interviewer.
It is also important for residents to know that Census information is confidential. Individual responses are not published. The information collected is used in aggregate for statistical purposes, helping to inform planning and decision-making while protecting personal privacy.
The Census belongs to all of us. It is an opportunity for every household to contribute to Bermuda’s future by helping to ensure that the decisions made today reflect the needs of the people who live here.
We encourage all residents to complete their Census submission online at census.gov.bm as soon as possible between May 21 and July 31, 2026.
Your participation matters. Your household matters. Your voice matters.
For assistance or questions about completing the Census, please email census@gov.bm or call 297-7761.
Western powers are racing to diversify supplies of metals vital to defence, technology and renewable energy and reduce dependence on China
International News via Reuters:
Group of Seven leaders agreed on Wednesday to step up coordination to cut their countries’ reliance on China for critical minerals, including plans to align stockpiling and launch a new platform with an expanded role for the International Energy Agency.
Western powers are racing to diversify supplies of metals vital to defence, technology and renewable energy and reduce dependence on China. Beijing rattled global markets last year when export curbs on permanent magnets disrupted industries, exposing their reliance on a single source.
Without naming China, the leaders said they aim to reduce dependence on any one supplier outside the G7 and partner countries for rare earths and permanent magnets to below 60% by 2030, with an ultimate goal of 50% “as soon as possible”.
“We are committed to working towards establishing harmonized, interoperable mechanisms …. This would start with two pilot critical minerals – lithium and nickel – and aim to avoid undermining competitiveness or imposing excessive cost burdens,” the leaders said in a joint statement.
The mechanisms would later expand to five new minerals each year with a focus on rare earth elements.
CHALLENGING TARGET
The 60% target will be challenging, analysts said, especially in terms of processed rare earths and magnets where China controls 90% of global output.
“The G7 statement is an important signal of intent, but the pace of diversification will ultimately depend on whether policy support translates into investment across the midstream and downstream parts of the value chain,” said Neha Mukherjee, research manager at consultancy Benchmark Mineral Intelligence.
The G7 will also set up a platform to coordinate policy, data sharing and crisis response, working with the IEA to monitor markets and flag risks, as first reported by Reuters.
The platform will draw on the agency for analysis and “early warnings of market distortions”, the group said.
G7 countries and allies face the challenge of building full supply chains from mining to end-product, requiring billions of dollars of investment. The leaders said G7 development finance institutions and export credit agencies should work together, including with the private sector, to back projects and infrastructure.
So far, countries have announced 195 projects since the start of 2026 with €64 billion ($74 billion) in investment.
The statement added that countries would explore “price-gap subsidies, joint procurement instruments and trade-related instruments such as quotas and price floors”, including through “plurilateral trade agreements”. The U.S. is expected to propose legally binding deals with Japan and the EU this month.
The lack of commitment on elements such as price floors reflected what diplomatic sources told Reuters ahead of the meeting was scepticism by G7 allies about the Trump administration’s push to boost critical minerals production by regulating prices.
G7 AIMS TO SUPPORT STOCKPILING, RECYCLING
The G7 committed to boost domestic stockpiling of critical minerals in both the industrial and public sectors.
The U.S. launched its $12 billion critical minerals reserve, Project Vault, earlier this year and said in April the first funding tranche was due to close soon.
The EU has shortlisted tungsten, rare earths and gallium for its first joint stockpile of critical minerals, sources told Reuters last month.
The statement also pledged to boost recycling of critical materials, aiming to increase the joint G7 recycling capacity to account for a “significant share” of annual consumption by 2030.

Minister explains why the elected government should have a greater say on electricity costs
Today the Minister of Home Affairs, the Hon. Alexa N. H. Lightbourne, JP, MP, shared the following in response to the recent House of Assembly passage of the Electricity Amendment Act.
Minister Lightbourne said, “Every household and business in Bermuda depends on reliable and affordable electricity. Decisions about our energy future affect the monthly bills paid by families, the operating costs faced by businesses, and the overall competitiveness of our economy.
“That is why the House of Assembly has approved amendments to the Electricity Act. These amendments do not weaken the independent role of the Regulatory Authority.
“The Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) remains in place, and technical and engineering decisions remain with those who have the expertise to make them.
“What has changed is the recognition that decisions about Bermuda’s energy future do not exist in a vacuum. They have real consequences for the people who pay the bills. When decisions affect every electricity customer, it is reasonable, and necessary, that the elected Government ensures that the broader public interest is considered. The people of Bermuda do not elect regulators; they elect a Government to safeguard their interests, particularly when essential services are involved.
“These amendments ensure that Bermuda’s energy future is shaped not only by technical considerations, but also by an understanding of affordability, reliability, and national impact.
At the same time, the legislation strengthens the long-term planning framework for the electricity sector. It places the Integrated Resource Plan firmly in the public domain, reinforces the independence of the regulator, and opens the process to the wider community, including businesses, households, and sectors that depend on reliable power.
“For too long, the structure of the sector has allowed one entity to play multiple roles in shaping and benefiting from the plan. When the body that helps define the plan also brings forward projects for approval, the plan risks losing its purpose as a guiding framework. These reforms address that imbalance and restore transparency and accountability.
“Bermuda already set an ambitious goal in 2019 to reach approximately 85 per cent renewable energy by 2035. However, progress has not matched that ambition, and projections indicate continued reliance on fossil fuels in the years ahead. The transition that was promised has not yet been fully realised.
“International examples show that change is possible. Jurisdictions with similar constraints, such as isolated grids and high energy costs, have successfully expanded renewable energy, increased competition, and delivered savings to consumers.
“Bermuda’s path must be tailored to our own realities, but these examples demonstrate what can be achieved with the right framework. Some will describe these changes as interference. In reality, they introduce transparency where it has been lacking and ensure that decision-making reflects the interests of the public.
“The amendments are deliberately narrow, applying only in defined circumstances and in the public interest. They do not give Ministers open-ended control, nor do they undermine the regulator’s independence. An energy system must serve everyone who depends on it, and everyone depends on it. Reliability is essential. Affordable electricity is essential. A successful transition to cleaner energy is essential. This is why the process must be open, inclusive, and accountable. Every stakeholder, from households and small businesses to major industries and community organisations has a role in shaping Bermuda’s energy future.
“One island. One energy system. Built for everyone. The plan now belongs to the people of Bermuda. Together, we have the opportunity to build an energy future that protects affordability, strengthens reliability, and delivers the transition that our country has long been promised.”
