Good idea
American technological leadership should extend to the robots and machines that power our factories.
Building that capacity here at home matters for our industrial strength and our national security.

.@JoinFAI's name means several things. But one is just what it says.
A resilient financial system provides the foundation for American innovation and a strong community banking sector. The OCC will take a risk-based approach to supervision, including oversight of the largest OCC-regulated issuers, and retains authorities that expressly address financial stability. As the new industry grows, the OCC will monitor potential contagion risks and take action as warrant by financial conditions. OCC.gov/GENIUS
ALT GENIUS Act Final Rule. Fact: The GENIUS Act and the OCC’s implementing regulations address financial stability risks, including contagion, through regulation and supervision of payment stablecoin issuers. OCC.gov

Get ready for World War P-Zombie! Next week I will be debating @hamandcheese on AI consciousness, moderated by @sckimbriel. We will fight about functionalism, quarrel over qualia, and serve problematically hard liquors to ensure that everyone has a phenomenal time.

Excited to share this updated primer on the Office of Technology Assessment (OTA) with @danielschuman. With new economic/cyber/bio/and other policy challenges arising from AI, now would be a great time to invest in greater science and tech capacity in Congress.

That's a great question -- @ZacharyGraves and I have written at length on OTA. But, if you just want a short primer, we got you covered.

EXCLUSIVE: California has spent $618 million on environmental impact reports for its doomed high-speed rail project. We printed out all 130,000 pages and tried to shoot a .50-caliber bullet through them.

OpenAI models helped researchers—operating as part of our Patch the Planet initiative—discover critical security flaws in PHP, an open-source programming language used to run an estimated 70% of websites.
Over the past two months, we led a coalition of maintainers, researchers, and security providers to prepare fixes and protections ahead of disclosure. This duration was necessary because the fix was quite intricate and required a major change to the PHP engine. Every site using PHP can now safely upgrade their version to stay secure, in addition to applying mitigations from various security vendors.
Due to the severity of these flaws and PHP’s widespread use, we consider this bug to be one of the most impactful vulnerabilities in recent memory. It also marks a new phase, where AI can find security bugs with internet-scale impact.
This is an example of the Defender’s Window in action: to our knowledge, frontier AI was able to find this vulnerability ahead of attackers, giving defenders time to prepare.

The USA’s bottomless appetite for financial innovation and skill at maintaining deep, liquid, versatile capital markets is possibly our most critical strategic asset.
Just before Halloween, we're teaming up with @AspenInstitute to host a debate on the haunted question of AI consciousness.
On the evening of 10/29 in DC, come see @hamandcheese and @aaronsibarium duke it out over whether there's really a ghost in the machine.
in general, NYT Styles recs are anti-signals. Trump and Zohran both wear business attire with no gimmicks to great effect—lesson in that!
