We Must Pace the Frontier: I’ve written a new essay on why the AI industry should slow down, with a three-part plan for doing so. Anthropic is unilaterally committing to the first of these steps. We’ll provide third-party evaluators with permanent, employee-level access to our systems, so that they can verify adherence to our safety measures, report on incidents, and assess models’ alignment during training.

For the record, I am hugely in favor of winning the midterms, and love much about this admin, but am strongly against bread and circus bribes.

The striking 19-page legal document undermined everything that President Trump has been saying about the damage to the Reflecting Pool for the past six weeks, including the claim that vandals had used a box cutter to slash the floor of the pool theatlantic.com/politics/202…

Donald Trump has earned more money in his first and second year, in his second term as president, than in the previous 60 years of his business career. On this episode of Everybody's Business @TimOBrien, @chafkin and @svaneksmith talk about whether or not what the president is doing is a grift link.podtrac.com/6mnyjl2l

Mark Cuban stands behind Trump as Trump speaks on behalf of stealing from taxpayers. This is why you don't go to the White House to do events with Trump -- you end up disgracing yourself.

Also: President Trump previously said he had personally chosen the contractor to fix the Reflecting Pool, because of the good work they did on his golf club's swimming pools. Now, Trump says does not know them.

I used to make fun of this kind of thing when reporting in North Korea.
How am I supposed to make satire when headlines like this are real 😭

I just can’t believe any of this is real. This man is literally beyond parody.
Trump called God bringing the Hebrews out of slavery in Egypt “an amazing period of time” and compared it to the United States under his presidency.

Hong Kong: On March 23, 2026, the Hong Kong government changed the implementing rules relating to the National Security Law. It is now a criminal offense to refuse to give the Hong Kong police the passwords or decryption assistance to access all personal electronic devices including cellphones and laptops. This legal change applies to everyone, including U.S. citizens, in Hong Kong, arriving or just transiting Hong Kong International Airport. In addition, the Hong Kong government also has more authority to take and keep any personal devices, as evidence, that they claim are linked to national security offenses.
