"SoftBank has pledged to invest up to €75bn in a vast network of AI computing clusters in France, backing what would be Europe’s biggest data centre project as the region races to catch up with the US and China in AI infrastructure."
Press freedom is absolutely not an issue. Certainly much much better than, say, the UK's where getting arrested for a tweet is common.
Regarding DCG's case: trial of the prime suspect due in July I believe. DCG's tragic case was a one-off. Attacks on democracy are much more common and frequent in other Western countries.
Reporters without Borders recently released Press Freedom Index 2026 puts Malta 67th, and the UK at 18. So no, certainly not much better - although looking at some of the historic data, it was better e.g. in 2010.
It can, you could try prompting the model to use object detection vision and text extraction, we realized when we purely extract text it does amazing at word/sentence level bounds since the text acts as the anchor. However, when you treat it as a object detection problem, it sees that chunk of text as a segment allowing you the extract it as one column bound. Give that a try.

The goal was never to be an oil state. It was to build something more enduring — a diversified economy, a knowledge society, a country with the depth and the partnerships to thrive in whatever the world became next."
"model failures become increasingly dominated by incoherence rather than systematic misalignment."
This should not be surprising.
Systematic misalignment, i.e., bias, is still coherent and rational, if it is to be systematic. This would require that AI reason, but AI does not reason (let alone think), it does not do inference.
