If you run an AI org, treat internal comms, identity systems, and dev tools as crown jewels, not back-office IT.
Deep & Emerging TechWhen Electric Cars Were for Women
The early EV era shows how quickly a technology’s social positioning can flip as infrastructure, performance, and norms change.

Deep & Emerging TechNvidia’s Megaspeed ties show potential blind spots in the U.S. effort to block China from accessing advanced chips
Export controls aimed at physical chips leave a large attack surface in cloud access, partnerships, and software-defined performance. If your strategy assumes constrained Chinese access to advanced compute, model your risk with “cloud leakage” as a baseline, not an edge case.
