L’IA en 2026 : Révolution Réelle ou Bulle Spéculative ?
Nvidia qui pèse plus que le PIB de l'Allemagne, des investissements qui se comptent en dizaines de milliards... On nous promet que l'Intelligence Artificielle va tout changer, tout de suite.
Pourtant, en coulisses, les questions brûlantes s'accumulent :
Le gain de productivité est-il enfin visible dans nos entreprises ?
Sommes-nous prisonniers d'une boucle financière où les géants de la tech se financent entre eux ?
Le mur énergétique et la pénurie de données vont-ils provoquer un coup d'arrêt brutal ?
Pour y répondre, nous organisons une table ronde exceptionnelle :
"L’IA en 2026 : Révolution Réelle ou Bulle Spéculative ?"
Nous avons réuni un trio d'experts aux regards radicalement différents :
La Finance : Pour disséquer les marchés et la solidité réelle des géants de la tech.
La Science Data : Pour nous dire ce que l'IA peut vraiment faire (et ses limites concrètes).
La Stratégie Tech : Pour analyser les enjeux d'infrastructure, d'énergie et de souveraineté.
Le casting ? Nous vous dévoilerons l'identité de nos trois intervenants dans les prochains jours. Issus de fleurons de l'investissement, de l'assurance et de la stratégie technologique, ils promettent un débat sans langue de bois.

Geopolitics/Géopolitique/ژئوپلیتیک/Геополитика/גאופוליטיקה
**Soirée débat — Cuba : l’échec du communisme ? Aux radical-chic européens ne reste-t-il que la Corée du Nord ?**
Cette semaine, notre discussion porte sur Cuba.
Depuis la révolution de 1959, l’île est gouvernée par une dictature communiste.
Pendant des décennies, Cuba a survécu grâce au soutien économique de puissances alliées, d’abord l’Union soviétique, puis le Venezuela, l'Iran, la Chine.
Aujourd’hui, l’économie cubaine traverse une crise profonde : pénuries alimentaires, coupures d’électricité, inflation, migration massive et dépendance énergétique. La fin du soutien pétrolier vénézuélien ont accentué une situation déjà dramatique.
Dans le débat public occidental, Cuba est souvent présentée à travers des récits simplifiés :
– soit comme un symbole romantique de résistance révolutionnaire
– soit comme un exemple caricatural d’échec politique
Notre objectif n’est pas de répéter ces récits.
Notre objectif est de comprendre.
***
### **Topics We Cover**
Nous analyserons la situation cubaine à travers plusieurs angles :
**1\. Le système politique cubain**
Comment un régime communiste à parti unique a-t-il maintenu le pouvoir pendant plus de six décennies ?
**2\. L’économie cubaine et ses limites**
Pourquoi l’économie planifiée cubaine produit-elle pénuries chroniques, dépendance énergétique et faible croissance ?
**3\. Les sanctions américaines**
Quel est l’impact réel de l’embargo américain ?
Affaiblit-il le régime ou renforce-t-il sa légitimité politique ?
**4\. La fin du soutien vénézuélien**
Quel rôle le pétrole subventionné du Venezuela a-t-il joué dans la survie du modèle cubain — et que se passe-t-il lorsque ce soutien disparaît ?
**5\. L’avenir de Cuba**
Transition politique, réforme économique progressive ou stagnation durable ?
***
### **What Makes This Different**
– Nous privilégions les témoignages de personnes originaires ou connaissant directement la région
– Nous examinons ce que les médias simplifient ou ignorent
– Nous encourageons les désaccords argumentés et les perspectives contradictoires
– Nous analysons les intérêts, les rapports de force et les réalités économiques — pas les slogans
Ce n’est pas un espace de propagande.
C’est un espace de réflexion.
***
### **Why This Forum Exists**
À Bruxelles, plusieurs initiatives proposent des débats structurés.
Trop souvent, cependant, un petit cercle détermine les propositions et limite la diversité réelle des conclusions possibles.
Il existe aussi des espaces où la géopolitique se réduit à des slogans anti-américains ou à des indignations partisanes.
Ce forum n’est ni l’un ni l’autre.
Nous accueillons une véritable diversité d’opinions et d’expériences.
Personne ici ne sera exclu pour avoir remis en question un récit dominant.
Les idées se confrontent librement.
Les attaques personnelles ne sont pas tolérées.
***
### **Motions & Proposals Welcome**
Nous encourageons les participants à proposer des motions de débat.
Une motion doit être formulée avec sérieux :
– une thèse claire
– un minimum de contexte historique ou juridique
– une compréhension des enjeux géopolitiques
Les propositions destinées à stimuler la réflexion sont bienvenues.
Les slogans et provocations faciles ne le sont pas.
***
### **Languages**
La langue dépendra des participants présents.
Les débats se déroulent généralement en anglais et en français, mais nous pouvons accueillir d’autres langues lorsque cela est possible.
Langues actuellement possibles :
– English
– Français
– Nederlands
– Español
– Italiano
– Русский
– Farsi
L’objectif est la compréhension, pas la pureté linguistique.
***
### **What We Ask of Participants**
– Venez pour comprendre, pas pour “gagner” un débat
– Soyez ouverts à des perspectives qui contredisent les vôtres
– Parlez avec des faits, du contexte et de l’histoire
– Si vous proposez un sujet, venez préparé
– Critiquez les idées, jamais les personnes
– Pas de censure des opinions
– Pas d’attaques personnelles
– Pas de diffamation
Le désaccord est normal.
La paresse intellectuelle ne l’est pas.
***
### **This is not a dating meetup**
Tous les espaces sociaux ne sont pas destinés à flirter ou à chercher des opportunités romantiques.
Si vous considérez ce forum comme un terrain de drague ou que vous faites des avances non désirées, vous n’avez pas compris le but de ce groupe.
La conversation vient d’abord.
Les idées viennent d’abord.
Le respect vient d’abord.
***
### **Location & RSVP**
L’événement aura lieu à Ixelles, dans un bar public.
Pour préserver la qualité et la sécurité de la discussion, le lieu exact est communiqué uniquement aux participants confirmés via notre groupe WhatsApp.
👉 Pour RSVP et recevoir le lieu :
https://chat.whatsapp.com/LX7UkWGZ3UdLQWLBvNdezN
L’objectif n’est pas l’exclusivité.
L’objectif est une discussion sérieuse entre personnes capables de réfléchir librement.
The goal is not exclusivity, but accountability and quality of discussion.
If this format doesn’t suit you, this event may not be the right fit.

It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for April is "Water"
Speak Easy: true stories, told live.
The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast.
Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect.
The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
