    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    China’s exports of drone-relevant exports to Russia surged in the July – August 2026 window. Below is some data on Chinese exports to Russia of optical fiber cables made up of individually sheathed fibers (Harmonized Tariff System code: 854470); optical fibers, optical fiber bundles, and cables other than 8544 (HTS 900110); and Lithium-ion batteries (HTS 850760).

    The Table Where It Happened: the Trump-Xi meeting and chips (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    Let’s unpack some important Taiwan and AI developments amid the Trump-Xi meeting. The WSJ has a useful explainer on who attended the White House dinner, especially at the Trump-Xi table. Table attendees included President Trump and General Secretary Xi, along with their spouses, Tim Cook of Apple, Elon Musk of xAI, Jensen Huang of NVIDIA, and Lisa Su of AMD. What was said at the table where it happened?Candidly, the seating arrangement doesn’t seem to bode well for chip export controls, which ar

That’s because while the probability of an imminent contingency in the Baltics is not zero, fears sweeping social media appear highly overstated.Russia’s ability to plan and execute a hybrid operation without substantial advance detection by Western (or PRC) intelligence services is highly doubtful.

    P(catastrophe) > P(doom) (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    P(doom) asks only one question: will misaligned AI kill or permanently disempower humanity? P(doom) is the most important near-term risk factor, but it isn’t the only one. This analysis applies a broader measure, P(catastrophe): the probability that the world suffers a global catastrophe, defined as the death of at least 10 percent of humanity or the irreversible capture of the international system by a single, totalitarian actor whose actions cannot be checked. P(catastrophe) includes not only
