The US ban on Anthropic’s latest model in June, though eventually lifted, risk repeating history's mistakes rather than protecting US interests.

I’ve got a new commentary with the Hinrich Foundation where I frame the challenges of regulating frontier AI with the Crypto Wars of the 1990s. Bottom line, governance headwinds will always appear unless key stakeholders are involved in the process. www.hinrichfoundation.com/research/wp/...

Maduro is a brutal and oppressive dictator of Venezuela. Trump has no legitimate legal basis for military action against Venezuela under United States or international law. Both of those facts are simultaneously true.
