AI is now the biggest weapon in crypto scams. Billions stolen in 2025. The question is simple: who will build smarter defenses?

What does it mean when a country mobilizes its entire economy and population for total warfare? NEST (disclosure - a client) invited James Sherr to discuss the threat from Russia and risks to NATO. Very timely and important: https://t.co/VQM7EWUzRA

@NoahCRothman Such a key and critical observation. @charlescwcooke also firmly entrenched the vision of the "self-licking ice cream cone" in the hippocampus every time I hear about this now...

A surge in high-profile crypto kidnappings in France underscores a truth private intelligence firms know well. Protecting wealth today begins with protecting the digital footprint. For crypto executives, the real challenge is addressing risks before they become threats. That means understanding exposure, reducing unnecessary visibility, and preparing for rapid response when incidents occur: https://t.co/UCKtu6pNcD

AI can help scale your mission.
But that only works if your systems build trust rather than erode it.

🧵 AI is moving fast inside nonprofits.

From fundraising to donor outreach, it’s already changing how mission-driven teams work.

But few are asking the harder question:
What happens when compliance catches up?

[Andrew @houndandkettle]

5/
Responsible orgs are taking these steps now:
✅ Writing internal AI use policies
✅ Training staff on capabilities and limits
✅ Auditing models for bias or error
✅ Reviewing ethics and consent before rollout

[Andrew @houndandkettle]

4/
New state privacy laws are taking shape.
They don’t always exempt nonprofits.
And regulators are watching how AI is being deployed in high-trust sectors.

[Andrew @houndandkettle]

3/
Others are relying on automated targeting models without understanding how they work.
That creates risk around bias, misrepresentation, and fairness.

[Andrew @houndandkettle]

2/
Many orgs are using tools that ingest sensitive donor or client data.
Few have clear policies about how that data is handled, stored, or reviewed.

[Andrew @houndandkettle]

1/
AI is now writing grant proposals, segmenting donor lists, and managing communications.
It’s fast. It’s affordable. And it’s everywhere.
But it’s also risky.

@RyanMcbeth Is that the version read by F. Murray Abraham?

[Andrew @houndandkettle]

@JonathanBstone @Aviation_Intel I have only ever seen anonymous sources in the US on the record as saying that the F-35Is have drop tanks.
