People can't detect AI video fakes or defend against millions of AI-driven cyber-attacks per minute. But AI can, and we should be glad it's also on our side. My latest Avast blog: blog.avast.com/ai-is-on-our-s…
I spent a few very interesting and informative days with @avast_antivirus's head of AI, Rasharshi Gupta, in Mexico City. He explained how only machine learning defenses can keep up with machine learning attacks.
Deterrence is also important. Stopping spam wasn't taken seriously until there were fines and even jail sentences for spammers & their hosts. Deterrence is especially essential when it comes to hostile state actors who are immune to standard legal action.

I summarized the Trump-Putin call before it happened, to recap: Trump didn't pressure Russia or ask for any concessions & Putin didn't offer any. Putin agreed to keep murdering Ukrainian civilians and Trump agreed to keep pressuring Ukraine to surrender so he can call it peace.
Trump proposed a ceasefire, Ukraine agreed. Putin told him to fuck off. Trump fucked off. Trump, Rubio and Vance all now saying the "punishment" for Russia for continuing the war it started will be for the United States to walk away & do nothing, i.e. what Putin wanted.
They are desperate to announce some sort of deal as an excuse to lift sanctions on Russia and open channels of oligarch money that will compete with the Middle East. But Ukrainians know that Russian occupation is death & the end of their nation.

Trump is putting the US presidency on the level of thugs and dictators and arguing that America should be no better than terror sponsors and genocidal invaders. Abandoning values & idealism isn’t pragmatic or realistic. It’s opportunistic capitulation to our worst selves.
I wrote about this strain of amoral isolationism in Winter Is Coming, invoking Soviet dissidents who saw its failures and pernicious effects clearly. Abandoning the hallowed goal of universal human rights and liberty isn’t effective even if you don’t care about good and evil. Image
MAGA and the techno-fascists racing to embrace amoral and immoral policies as practical or even pro-peace are spitting on the graves of the countless people who died fighting for freedom against tyranny, and the even greater number of victims of tyranny.

This is why Putin is so desperate to get Trump to push through a Ukrainian surrender deal that he can say makes him the big winner. Ukraine winning doesn't mean attacking Russia, only defending its territory. The US not helping Ukraine is bad, but just don't help Russia.
We said as much about the Russian democratic opposition to Putin nearly 20 years ago. Stopping him was a fight for Russians, but even if you weren't going to help us, stop helping him crush Russian civil society by pretending he wasn't a dictator. They did not stop.
Now, Trump wants to help Russia destroy Ukraine by lifting sanctions and rehabilitating Putin politically when he and the Russian economy are weak. Are the Republicans, and Americans generally, going to be complicit in this betrayal of a US ally and of US interests?

Refusing to acknowledge the maximalist nature of demagogues and autocrats is why democracies are so bad at resisting them. Acting like MAGA is going to follow the rules of free and fair elections in 2028 (with or without Trump) is a fantasy. 2026 is already in grave danger.
As with most of Trump‘s projection—accusing his enemies of his own crimes, flaws, & failings—his beloved big lie about the 2020 election being stolen paves the way for his own abuses. "They did it to us first" resentment is one of the core principles of autocratic movements.
Americans cannot wait for 2028 because if they do, there won’t be nearly as much they can do by then and it will be far more difficult to do it. Same with thinking you can wait until the midterms. No. Resist 100% now, on everything, or the elections process will be subverted.

Countries that recognize Russia's illegal annexation of Crimea: Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, Syria, Afghanistan, North Korea. The US State Dept site (for now): "The US govt recognizes Crimea is part of Ukraine; it does not & will not recognize the purported annexation of Crimea." Image
Trump is so eager to please Putin that he votes with Russia in the UN to avoid even condemning Russia's war of aggression. Doing so in the name of peace is even more pathetic and revolting. Surrendering to a hostile invader only guarantees further aggression.
Why isn't every Republican being asked every day if they agree with Trump on aligning the United States with Russia against Ukraine, Europe, and the free world the US once led? This has nothing to do with "peace", only surrender and more war to come.

Trump again rushes to humiliate his sycophants and defenders with a full-throated embrace of Russia, the day after it murdered 30 civilians in Sumy, Ukraine with ballistic missiles on Palm Sunday. Where are the condemnations and resignations of the GOP who spoke out yesterday?
Did Biden launch those missiles? Zelenskyy? Nor did either of them start this war, but you couldn’t tell that from Trump's insane ravings. No mention of Putin, of course, who launched this attack the day after Trump's envoy personally kissed his ass, just to show who’s in charge.
This is the only formula Trump has left to defend his embrace of Putin & Russia. As for his "it wouldn’t have happened on my watch", 1, the war WAS going on during his term and he did nothing. 2, as I explained again in the Atlantic, Putin expected Trump to help him as he is now: Image
