A group of security researchers, AI entrepreneurs, and corporate executives, including myself, have released a letter calling for a return to the American ideal of transparent, predictable and evidence-based regulation when it comes to AI.

@DakotaInDC The meta domino theory: flawed foreign policy in one era will lead to flawed foreign policy in the next until the American empire falls

As hantavirus memes flood social feeds, US public health is missing. The vaccine skeptics who outmaneuvered them in 2020 offer a blueprint for showing up.

I reflected on what my research over Covid can teach public health today:

Most people I know in AI think the median person is screwed, and they have no idea what to do about it.

I spent the last 3 months talking to dozens of researchers, economists, and policy experts about AI's impact on work; including reps from every frontier lab and several Congressional offices. Unfortunately, I was not reassured.

The AI industry is raising the alarm, but can't change course. These companies' core business model relies on the disruption they are warning about: their faith in full automation only makes them go faster.

Policymakers are waking up, but still paralyzed by data and debates. Econ wonks disagree on plenty, but even the limited scenario looks like a "painful transition" that will disempower millions of workers.

But an "underclass" is not inevitable, but rather a societal choice — and one we can and should stop. Instead of waiting for impact, we should start planning now to support workers through AI disruption. Whether policymakers can assuage concerns about economic security may determine if we get to reap AI's gains at all.

New from me for @NYTOpinion. I put a ton into researching what I think may be the biggest topic of the year, so hope you read it (gift link here!) https://t.co/NiGJpjyjzH

The other 3 clusters are much smarter strategies precisely because they don't rely on public opinion. To date, I'd argue cyber is effective for espionage and financial gain and ineffective for deterrence.

[Chase Small @ChaseSmall5]

Cyber has not become the asymmetric, long range deterrence people thought it would - even as we see attacks ramping up to unprecedented scale and impact.

[Chase Small @ChaseSmall5]

The first, Iran, has been a strategic failure. Despite Iran’s technical successes of cyber in retaliation for US strikes, there's been no meaningful press coverage. Their disruptive attacks have done little to decrease US appetite for engagement - esp. compared to blocking Hormuz

We cannot let this crisis be used to further normalize CLEAR. It is an insane thing that should not be allowed to exist. We should not have a Disneyland FastPass system for airports.

[Chase Small @ChaseSmall5]

I'm convinced that AI can make the next era of software the most secure one yet.

But only if done right.

We are working on both the technical problem: how do we prevent vulns in new SDLCs?

And the org problem: how do we help engineering and security teams get along?

Today we're announcing @Corridor's $25M Series A led by @Felicis.

More code will be written this year than ever before. At Corridor, securing AI coding at the source, enabling companies to their development without security being a blocker. 🧵

We are using AI to cure cancer right?

“4 weeks to flatten the curve.”

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Hegseth: "I heard the question about 4 weeks. It's the typical NBC gotcha-type question. President Trump has all the latitude in the world to talk about how long it may or may not take. 4 weeks, 2 weeks, 6 weeks. It could move up, it could move back. We're gonna execute at his command ... Joe Biden didn't even know what he was doing"

My gf is getting real tired of my new found curling obsession. But luckily she’s not on this cursed app, so… how do they do that?!

@yasmeena_khan Embarrassingly I didn’t know what that word meant, but I set up openclaw on a new Mac mini and gave it full access to the internet and my email so I was able to have it send me the definition!

[Chase Small @ChaseSmall5]

There's been a lot of hype about which article on AI to read over the past few weeks. Without a doubt, this is the one:

@yasmeena_khan Right?! Now send me $1500 so I can buy a gaming computer.

History is just getting started!

[Jack Cable @jackhcable]

It was an honor to have the legendary @FukuyamaFrancis on our podcast with @alexstamos. We covered Dr. Fukuyama's own experiences with Claude - where it argued that he couldn't possibly be Dr. Fukuyama, the renowned political scientist, if he wrote Arduino code and managed Proxmox clusters, as well as the End of History in the age of AI and the US-China AI arms race.

my son is watching his first winter olympics.

he just said “daddy, why don’t both teams just ask AI to build the optimal training strategy, and vibe code an app to track KPIs?”

he's 37 and i am so sick of him

When you think about it life is really just using Tool Shaped Objects at your Job Shaped Daytime Activity so you can make Money Shaped Numbers and buy Food Shaped Organic Materials.

Call it The American Dream Shaped Late Stage Capitalism.
