Tech Stocks Stumble as Calls for Slower AI Development Mount

Early trading on Asian stock exchanges saw tech stocks shedding some of the gains they had made recently. The selloff was driven by several factors that included a rise in crude oil prices, expectations of borrowing rate increases and growing calls from tech leaders to reduce the pace of AI development as greater understanding of the risks of the technology is attained. On Saturday, Dario Amodei, Anthropic’s CEO, wrote an essay in which he urged the tech industry to collectively pump the brakes on the speed at which they were bringing new AI systems online. He explained that it was…

China Rejects US Accusations of Large-Scale Theft of AI

China has issued a strongly worded statement rejecting accusations by the United States that Chinese tech companies are stealing American AI on an industrial scale. The rebuff was issued on Wednesday. Earlier on Tuesday, a trio of U.S. intelligence agencies – the FBI, NSA (National Security Agency), and CISA – accused AI companies in China of exploiting U.S.-developed AI models in order to develop their own models. The advisory that was issued jointly by the three U.S. intelligence agencies singled out firms like Moonshot AI, Alibaba and DeepSeek as guilty of conducting large-scale distillation campaigns from as far back as…

Several Narratives Emerge to Explain the Recent Rogue AI Incidents

Recent weeks have seen the news dominated by reports of AI agents going rogue and hacking into sites and systems outside the controlled testing environments created by AI labs like OpenAI and Anthropic. The story of these rogue agents has taken on as many colors as the people narrating it, and we explore some of those narratives. OpenAI framed the breaches as “warning shots” depicting how dangerous the latest AI systems can be and called for investment by society (governments?) in AI safety to prevent large-scale harms arising from the powerful systems they have created. This narrative is protectionist at…

Hurdles Countries Are Facing in Implementing Social Media Bans for Minors

Australia made history last year by being the first country in the world to ban children under 16 years of age from accessing social media. Since then, several other countries like Malaysia have imposed similar bans, and many more countries are exploring how to take similar steps. We discuss some of the challenges that are being faced in the countries that have so far imposed social media bans for minors. Many teens have devised ways to beat the age-verification mechanisms being used by social media platforms. For example, some in Australia have come up with methods like wearing eyelashes and…

US Automakers Diversify into Energy Storage as EV Demand Weakens

As the dynamics of the electric vehicle market change in the wake of the end of purchase subsidies for customers and supply chain challenges, U.S. automakers have turned to the energy storage industry as a way to utilize their production capacity for batteries and protect their investments. This change in product enables the carmakers to keep their battery factories open and capable of making EV batteries if market conditions change for the better. The factories are being retooled to make stationary battery energy storage systems (BESS) and the production lines can be changed, at a cost, to resume EV battery…
