Ashley Tjhung @atjhung.bsky.social · 14/09/2026The nonprofit advocacy sector is dropping the ball on AI regulation. The public is looking for experts with a vision, yet we're completely ceding the narrative to AI CEOs and doom cults. Luckily Lina Khan and some of the anti-trust folks are trying to get ahead of this but they need more voices. 010

You need a Supreme Court management strategy too. 26438137

Ashley Tjhung @atjhung.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Some legal analysts thought the Court would not be sympathetic to the Trump administration's arguments as it would reduce the power of the judiciary.
