If Sam Altman, Dario Amodei, and Elon Musk all agree that we have to slow down - and now - something serious clearly happened with a frontier AI model. Journalists should be digging in to this. We aren’t getting the whole story here.

I’ve been saying AI for a few weeks, but now that all of the AI techs are raising the alarm: Yemen. If Bab al-Mandab gets completely out of control, we’re going to see a LOT of bad shit happen. Fertilizer is already hard to come by. Oil prices will skyrocket. Food insecurity is a real possibility.

You often hear that the Welsh uplands are naturally treeless — too high, too wet, too exposed — and that the evidence for it is upland tree cover declining from the late Mesolithic, before farming even arrived. In Eryri, the pollen record shows the opposite. 1/🧵

No, not irreversible. But it will almost certainly take more than one Democratic term to fix. Which is why I’ve been so insistent that folks stop the goddamn purity tests and vote responsibly in November. We aren’t looking for perfect candidates. We’re looking for better than Republicans.

This is a concern that I’ve spoken about several times as well, and Twitter randos always told me I was “overreacting” or “fear-mongering” I said this at the time, but it’s nice to have official confirmation. And I very much worry about US leadership in that scenario today.

This was intentional. First drones, now missiles. Russia is gauging NATO’s (specifically the US) response to these violations. Every time they strike far Western Ukraine, they get data on Polish operating procedures - alerts, jets scrambled, communications with allies, etc.

AI is actually one of my primary concerns. I’ve written about some of the dangers in a few different pieces, but I worry a lot about AI, particularly in the national security space. Truly autonomous weapons are insane, but they’re coming. The AI-powered surveillance state is real, and improving.

Yep. We could bomb Iran every day for the next 10 years and still fail to significantly change the battlefield calculus. I’m obviously no fan of the Iranian regime, but this is why I said we couldn’t win this war with air power alone, and that it was a foolish war to enter.

This is good analysis, and part of what I’ve said: Iran can’t win a tit for tat military battle with the US. That was always obvious. What they *can* do is extract a disproportionate economic and political price from Trump. We have the power. They have the leverage.
