The Pope just declared war on Silicon Valley's power grab and Anthropic's co-founder was in the room when he did it.
In today's episode: a moral document from the Vatican is reshaping the AI governance debate in ways no lobbying campaign can counter. Colorado just tore up the most aggressive AI law in America — and what replaced it tells you something uncomfortable about where US regulation is heading. The AI model that spooked central banks and got Anthropic flagged as a Pentagon security risk is about to reach a much wider audience. AI-powered attacks have crossed from emerging threat to routine criminal operation, with a new technique most enterprise security teams haven't planned for. And China just moved to register every humanoid robot in the country — and the US has nothing like it.
