The judiciary is developing guidance on generative AI, testing tools to transcribe filings while warning against delegating core judicial work. AEI’s @ProfClayCalvert analyzes early judicial experiments using LLMs to interpret ordinary meaning in legal texts. Read his report here: aei.org/research-products/re…

Should governments regulate an AI model development slowdown? Bronwyn Howell explores this in her latest blog post for @AEI: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

Keeping kids safe online is a widely shared, bipartisan goal. But deciding how to do this has quickly gotten complicated. @jdtabish (@ProgressChamber) joined @ShaneTews to discuss online safety, age assurance, privacy & the road ahead. Worth a listen 🎧👇 aei.org/multimedia/how-do-we…

Enjoyed speaking this morning with @IODManny on @WIOD News Radio in South Florida about White House press access, plus public school teachers' First Amendment speech rights . . . @AEItech . . . iheart.com/podcast/1248-mann…

“For more than fifty years, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) never ordered a broadcaster to apply for a license renewal early. This past April, it ordered all eight ABC-owned and -operated stations to do so, the day after President Trump demanded that ABC fire Jimmy Kimmel. The order escalated a long-running feud between the broadcaster and FCC Chairman Brendan Carr, one that Justice Neil Gorsuch cited as an example of agency power run amok, and follows years of presidential demands that ABC lose its licenses because of various editorial decisions.” Continue reading @ProfDanielLyons' latest piece here: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

President Donald Trump is scheduled to meet Chinese President Xi Jinping in Washington today, with technology competition, AI, and supply-chain security expected to loom over the talks. In an episode of Explain to Shane hosted by AEI's @ShaneTews and Claude Barfield, Chris Miller discussed how semiconductor production, research and development, supply-chain concentration, and Taiwan shape US economic and national security. Their conversation helps explain why chips remain central to the US-China relationship. Read highlights from their conversation here: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

A win in late July for social media platforms in CCIA v. Paxton that blocks enforcement of a Texas law that imposes monitoring and filtering requirements on platforms is marred by a dissent from Judge James Ho that would undermine platforms’ Section 230 safeguards. @ProfClayCalvert writes: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

I made this observation last week for @AEItech about the DoW's attacks on @AnthropicAI . . . this week, national security is trotted out to justify censorship of White House journalists and to support the arch . . . The petulant boy keeps crying wolf . . .aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

The US Patent and Trademark Office CIO is outlining how the agency uses technology to modernize operations, strengthen its workforce, and boost administrative efficiency. In an AEI video explainer, @michaelmrosen breaks down the basic bargain at the heart of the patent system: inventors publicly disclose how their inventions work in exchange for a 20-year right to exclusive control. Because this system balances protection with knowledge-sharing, efficient USPTO administration is vital to America's innovation ecosystem. Watch his explainer here: aei.org/multimedia/what-is-a…

My latest for @AEItech @AEICTSE re: a recent key victory for @ccianet & @NetChoice but also a §230 destroying dissent from a potential SCOTUS nominee . . . A Win for Social Media Platforms in Texas Is Marred by a Speech-Destructive Dissent aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

“The US Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in July delivered a key victory for social media platforms against states seeking to impose their own content-based publication requirements and punish platforms that don’t follow them. Unfortunately, a partial dissent by Judge James Ho clouds the free-speech win in Computer & Communications Industry Association (CCIA) v. Paxton.” Read @ProfClayCalvert’s latest: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

“The Federal Trade Commission should pursue violators based on current legal standards, applying them equally regardless of whether prices are uniform, personalized, or something in between. Research gives us little reason to believe that principles should change as knowledge increases.” Read @DrJ_Policy’s latest: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…

As federal agencies update antitrust enforcement guidelines, how should regulators evaluate dynamic tech markets? In an AEI expert panel moderated by @DrJ_Policy, economists weigh in on how merger rules shape business expectations and innovation.

As policymakers gather for UN Digital Cooperation Day, can global frameworks keep pace with AI? AEI’s Bronwyn Howell argues top-down mandates risk stifling progress. Governance should preserve open innovation while targeting rules to concrete, high-risk use cases. Read her analysis here: aei.org/domestic-policy/tech…
