Automakers Pressure Congress To Ban Chinese EVs To ‘Protect Privacy’
If you enjoy badly written bipartisan protectionist tech legislation designed primarily to coddle giant U.S. companies under the xenophobia-tinged breathless pretense of privacy and national security, you are really going to enjoy the next twelve to twenty-four months.While the U.S. drowns in corrupt kakistocracy, the Chinese are making significant market inroads in everything from AI...

AI Agents Are Not Going “Rogue,” But Recent Developments Lead Increasingly-Concerned Researchers To Call For AI Slow Down
For the last few months, there has been much talk of AI agents going “rogue”. This is another of those unhelpful anthropomorphisms that are great for clickbait headlines, but which obscure a multitude of important issues. So far, there have been three major incidents of AI agents evading containment in their software “sandboxes” and going...

Fake Consumer Group Using AI To Generate Fake Support For Paramount Merger
In addition to the $111 billion Paramount/Warner Bros merger just being foundationally bad for creatives, labor, and consumers, the Ellison family-owned company's executives just keep demonstrating why they're not really the kind of folks you want dominating the lion's share of U.S. media.That's included calling deal critics "antisemitic," cozying up to foreign authoritarians, constantly threatening...

The cave has Wi-Fi now
What catches me in Angie Hobbs’s talk isn’t simply the claim that Plato anticipated fake news, demagogues and the slide from democracy into tyranny. Ancient philosophers are forever being advertised as having predicted the present. Give Marcus Aurelius a smartphone and he becomes a productivity guru. Give Plato an algorithm and suddenly the cave is...
The US Information Sector Payroll Slump May Not Be What You Thought

The DOJ’s AI Fair Use Brief Is Correct, But From A DOJ That Has No Credibility
I am never asking the monkey's paw for a federal government that defends fair use again. For decades on Techdirt, I've talked about the absolute necessity of strong fair use, and have been disappointed over and over again at how little the federal government has fought for fair use. For decades, the rare times when...

Tom Cruise Parrots Paramount’s Empty Merger Promises Because He Loves His ‘Hollywood Family’
Just so we're clear: pre-merger promises (especially in the media and telecom sectors) are absolutely worthless. There's fifty years of indisputable evidence that all of the "synergies" and innovative improvements promised on the front end of major media mergers mean absolutely nothing. Especially in a country dead-set on defanging its labor and consumer protection regulators.To...

Love is for the ones who love the work.
Taking the final line of Joseph Fasano's poem 'For a Student Who Used AI to Write a Paper' as a starting point, I argue that loving the verb of creation matters more than daydreaming the noun. There's a wide chasm between writing discipline and the seduction of genAI shortcuts. The only way forward is to start doing the work—badly, bravely, and now.
