This was a fascinating conversation and pleased to have been invited to discuss AI in the telecom industry. Thanks to @AEI @drj_policy for including me. If you missed it live, the video should he available soon. Check it out!

As we proceed deeper into an AI economy where scarce but expensive human resources are required to buttress against the excesses of (near-costlessly generated) AI spam, such taxes offer an effective price signal that is otherwise being lost.

I've lost track of the number of times EU bureaucrats have insisted that they “aren't trying to dictate product design.”

@ShaneTews shows how rules aimed at consumer outcomes can gradually turn into instructions for engineers.

How is Congress using AI? And how quickly and efficiently are they adopting it?

Writing on the SECURE Data Act, @Jim_Harper's latest for AEIdeas is now live:

https://t.co/HECz5IopET

[AEI Tech Policy @AEItech]

“By forcing the operating system to allow one app to control another, the Commission is enabling what security researchers call ‘indirect prompt injection,’ in which a malicious actor manipulates an AI agent via hidden instructions to perform unauthorized actions. In the expanding era of agentic AI, this risk is especially acute: Unlike conventional software, AI agents can dynamically alter their behavior in ways developers did not anticipate.” @ShaneTews

The smartphone is a meticulously engineered security architecture, and the European Commission's draft measures under the Digital Markets Act now threaten its integrity.

What really happened between Anthropic and the Department of War? And why is it important to follow?

@WillRinehart recently published a report on this for Exformation. Read it here:

Here are @John_Bailey’s notes from Google I/O in San Fransisco.

TLDR: The next phase of AI is about the everyday.

Recently, @WillRinehart publish an extended report on how a fight over contract language between Anthropic and the Department of War became a test of who controls frontier AI.

A week ago, @John_Bailey had the chance to attend the annual developer conference, Google I/O, which made one thing clear: The next phase of AI isn't about the extraordinary. It's about the everyday.

“The recent Supreme Court argument in Chatrie v. United States sums to an uneven future for digital privacy. If the Court tackles the question whether a geofence warrant can pass Fourth Amendment muster, it seems unlikely to clear up what Fourth Amendment muster is.

So lock up your stuff. The law won’t be there for you.” @Jim_Harper

Who should lead in AI cybersecurity: industry or government?

@ShaneTews looks at CAISI’s recent pre-deployment agreement with frontier labs and Anthropic’s Glasswing program to come to an answer.
