@naomiaklein.bsky.social

On CNN's Amanpour Astra answered the question that’s on lots of people’s minds this week: How should we understand all of the Silicon Valley executives and engineers warning that AI might destroy humanity? Her advice: watch what they do more than what they say. @astra.bsky.social

Video: Why Is It So Difficult To Regulate A.I.?

There has been considerable debate over regulating the artificial intelligence industry, but much of that effort has stalled. Cecilia Kang, a technology reporter for The New York Times, explains why.

I'm not in the habit of recommending Ezra Klein interviews, but this one with Matt Sheehan of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, on the AI competition with China, was very informative.

Can the U.S. regulate its A.I. industry without surrendering the A.I. race to China?

Remember if you’re not paying (much), you’re the product. I mean, what could an AI company do with immediate access to current research?

So you just learned about the AI cult, huh? Here is the longform explainer you need to make sense of the very, very strange ideas driving tech policy in 2026. Buckle up, it’s a wild ride. www.techpolicy.press/what-policym...

China’s challenge, in other words, is not simply to find new engines of growth by continuing to fund technological progress in the same way it has in the past.

New, at @techpolicypress.bsky.social, I discuss the problems with Dario Amodei's "We Must Pace the Frontier" proposal.

(TL;DR version: The better angels of the AI industry's nature are never going to prevent the AI industry's worst potential harms.)

Who Should Pace the Frontier? Not Dario Amodei

We should take Dario Amodei’s writing just seriously enough to stop entrusting him with so much power, writes Dave Karpf.

Slowing AI is not enough. Governments need to govern

Calls from AI leaders to slow frontier development are welcome, but companies whose profits depend on the technology should not decide how much risk society must accept.
