Very excited to be presenting my book #AlgorithmicRulebyLaw today @tilburg-university.bsky.social - especially since so many TILT researchers helped inspire this book through their own work! We'll discuss public sector #AI & its impact on the rule of law: www.tilburguniversity.edu/about/school...

There's a lot of chatter around the proposal being inserted into a budget bill that would put a moratorium on any AI legislation being passed by the states for the next 10 years. I thought I'd say a bit about why this is an absolutely disastrous move. www.404media.co/republicans-... 1/n

Zolgensma’s $2M/dose price quickly became the standard for gene therapies. Nine of them cost more than $2M. A tenth, approved in November, is predicted to run about $3.8M, just shy of the most expensive, which costs $4.25M/dose.

What a $2 Million Per Dose Gene Therapy Reveals About Drug Pricing

Taxpayers and charities helped develop Zolgensma. Then it debuted at a record price, ushering in a new class of wildly expensive drugs. Its story upends the widely held conception that high prices…

I wrote about the myth of the "AI-native" startup and new data finding buyers' remorse from CEOs who have attempted to spread it throughout their organizations www.platformer.news/ai-native-st...
Siemiatkowski has a lot of company here. Last week, IBM released the results of a survey of 2,000 CEOs from 33 countries. It found that only 25 percent of AI initiatives have delivered the expected return on investment in recent years, and that just 16 percent have scaled across their respective companies.

To a comical degree, these failed AI experiments seem to be caused by a panicked fear of missing out: the survey found that 64 percent of CEOs "say the risk of falling behind drives them to invest in some technologies before they have a clear understanding of the value they bring to the organization."

In other words, it isn't just us in the tech press that can too easily fall for AI hype. The CEOs are falling for it, too — and they're spending a lot more money on it than we are.

Is “partnering closely with the US government” the best way to advance “democratic” AI?

Can the US be the cradle of "Democratic AI" if it is not a democracy?

I am but a simple Internet lawyer unschooled in corporate law, so can someone explain to me how a buyer that acquires substantially all the assets of a company and continues providing the same service under the same name is not a paradigm case of successor liability? arstechnica.com/gadgets/2025...
