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've read the Federalist Papers, the Declaration of Independence, and the Constitution. But maybe I missed where the Founding Fathers supported the idea of immunity for the president. Can Justice Thomas or other supposed originalists shows us where it was mentioned?
They are always referring to 18th century documents to validate everything from gun rights to states' rights, so I'm sure I must have missed something. Perhaps in a letter from Jefferson or Madison? Such a revolution requires a clear historical basis, does it not?
I've been checking Fox & other places you'd expect to defend this decision on the merits, but no. Is the Court simply trying to make the US president, or one convicted one in particular, into a kinglike figure? What's in it for Roberts? Trump will use this power, of course.

An accurate description of Trump, but the chicken is now expired! Most of us hoping Biden steps down do so not because we like Trump, but because we oppose him so vehemently. If avoiding the shit & glass is what matters most, and it is, Biden running is a betrayal of that goal.
The stakes are high. Trump has his fanatical MAGA base while the most energetic part of the left hates Biden. Biden's weakness will suppress Dem turnout and not only return Trump to the White House, but wipe out good moderate candidates who need those votes.
Trump is a crook, a vandal, a would-be autocrat. His existence as a former president & current candidate is a stain on the American tapestry. But the powerful moral argument against him diminishes when Biden's backers prop him up for their own interests.

Last night's debate turned the candidate dilemma into a crisis. Trump's energetic lies versus Biden's feeble truth is a catastrophe for America and the free world. A raving crook with no self-control and a shadow of a man being treated cruelly by those around him. 1/11
The people who have propped Biden up as a candidate to maintain their own power are accessories to the murder of US democracy and should be held accountable. If you can't walk or talk, you shouldn't run. 2/11
Biden's weakness helped make Trump II possible. A stronger Dem would have given a big boost to Haley. I lived through this with the ailing Yeltsin in 1996. Instead of allowing stronger candidates we got, "But only Yeltsin can beat Zyuganov!" 3/11

Putin has been selling off Russian resources, land, and autonomy cheaply to China for over 15 years. Now it it accelerating because his war on Ukraine & the resulting sanctions have increased Putin's need for Chinese political support, tech, cash, and weapons components. 1/5
Remember that Putin and his mafia cronies don't care about Russia or Russians at all. They are fodder, especially anywhere outside of Moscow & St. Petersburg. The state is only a front for his mob to pillage. 2/5
Xi needs cheap resources to quell discontent with his own precarious economy. He will try to sign favorable deals & treaties that can still be enforced when Putin falls. And vassal Pu Tin is also useful to Xi for weakening the West. 3/5

New aid & more weapons to Ukraine and stronger sanctions on Russia, so you know what that means. Time for "peace" talk by Putin with the Western media dancing to his tune with moral equivalence and headlines only a war criminal dictator could love.

Putin started this war and invasion unprovoked. Russia has murdered thousands of Ukrainian civilians and kills more every day. Intentionally. Russia could stop bombing Ukrainian cities & withdraw its forces from Ukraine and end the war today. Putin chooses not to.
Ukraine is no threat to Russia. NATO is only a threat the way a bulletproof vest is a threat to a gun. The existence of a free & democratic Ukraine is a threat to *Putin* because its example shows prosperity & liberty are possible, in contrast with his imploding dictatorship.

The latest US sanctions are deliberately late because they are aimed at forcing Putin to negotiate. Undoubtedly, Russia was warned in advance, otherwise the effect of these measures could be devastating. 1/4
Biden's definition of victory is a ceasefire in reasonable conditions, both in Ukraine and Israel. The free world has managers, not leaders, and they are addicted to the status quo, no matter how bad it is. This allows their enemies to change it at their convenience. 2/4
Biden's denying NATO membership for Ukraine was a part of the strategy to bring Putin to the table. This policy has not changed. That's why both sanctions and weapons are delivered in small portions. They want perpetual negotiations to feel important, not victory. 3/4
