#AI chip smuggling is like an iceberg: we only see what’s above the surface. To estimate its true scale, we need to know how much is hidden below the waterline. Whether that’s 50% or 90% makes a big difference. In this Q&A, @jacob_feldgoise describes how location verification methods can—and cannot—improve enforcement of export controls on these powerful chips. Link below ⬇️

Jessica Ji weighed in on the new #AI-powered .America.gov website for @USATODAY, saying that it can be a useful resource for people trying to navigate U.S. government websites. She also notes its risks: “When this kind of AI system is empowered to handle private data and actually take action on users' behalf, I think you are increasing the attack surface quite a bit." usatoday.com/story/tech/2026…

Public discussion of state-backed influence often treats discrete networks of fake accounts on social media as if they're the whole game.
In @ForeignAffairs, Renée DiResta (@noUpside) and I argue this is the wrong way to see things.
Sophisticated states often combine overt AND covert tools, on both broadcast AND social media, in what we call "full-spectrum propaganda."
