"Think of a small town where people don’t lock their doors or windows because of the unwritten rule that no one steals. Under these circumstances, the first thief to commit robberies operates at a huge advantage. He can effortlessly get into anyone’s house.
This first-mover advantage disappears as soon as people catch on and start locking their doors and windows. But the thief doesn’t bear the costs of the locks or the hassle of locking all the doors and windows."

The executive branch plays no role in making election policy or regulating election administration
—the Constitution explicitly leaves those responsibilities to the states and Congress.
The “Proposed Rule: Ballot Mail for Federal Elections” therefore conflicts with the Constitution.
Beyond that, it is bad policy that will make it harder for election administrators to do their jobs,

From the ethics policy of a journal:
It is not permitted to share manuscripts under review with AI tools in any form, [...] as this compromises the confidentiality and copyright of material provided by the author during the peer review process.
I think the policy is valid but the reason 'compromises confidentiality' is moot because the papers are on the arXiv with names and all that and thus already part of training data and available to agents. Also local models.

Beyond headcount and human capital: The Effective Cognitive Population as a decomposable capacity unit for AI-era planning
Kwan Soo Shin
arxiv.org/abs/2608.09642 arxiv.org/pdf/2608.09642 arxiv.org/html/2608.09642
arXiv:2608.09642v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: National planning counts population, human capital, and artificial-intelligence preparedness in separate ledgers. Demographic accounting has advanced from headcount to skills-adjusted stocks and still debates how much age structure retains once skills are modeled, yet no existing unit carries the conditions under which preparedness becomes productive capacity. This study introduces the Effective Cognitive Population (ECP), a decomposable unit that weights population by capability and by the conditions under which capability is deployed, anchored to the World Bank Human Capital Index Plus (HCI ) and the non-overlapping dimensions of the IMF AI Preparedness Index. The architecture is portable in principle; the case tested here is artificial intelligence, which has a published preparedness index. For 144 countries, HCI becomes a productivity level, AI opportunity uses digital infrastructure and innovation integration, conversion governance uses regulation and ethics, and the benchmark is ECP = N H(1 AC). Against 2024 total output on identical population bases, ECP raises criterion R-squared from 0.849 for the HCI -adjusted stock to 0.882 and lowers leave-one-country-out RMSE from 0.723 to 0.641, with the working-age comparison identical and bootstrap intervals excluding zero. Eighty-nine of 144 countries move at least ten rank positions from headcount, mostly through the human-capital adjustment itself. Results are stable across denominators, vintages, aggregation forms, and a 27-rule multiverse. The direct A by C interaction is not statistically supported, so the conjunction is a planning rule rather than causal complementarity. ECP is a diagnostic ledger whose scope excludes forecasts of population decline and estimates of AI's causal productivity effect.

PhantomSeal: Proactive Deepfakes Defense with Identity/Context Protection and Forensic Tracing

arxiv.org/abs/2607.20564 arxiv.org/pdf/2607.20564 arxiv.org/html/2607.20564
arXiv:2607.20564v1 Announce Type: new
Abstract: Deepfakes, especially face-swapping attacks, pose significant challenges to authenticity, security, and ethics across science, engineering, and society. While most existing detection/tracing approaches operate post hoc, proactive defenses that aim to intervene before deepfake generation remain limited in terms of real-world effectiveness. In this paper, we present PhantomSeal, the first proactive defense to simultaneously protect both the identity and the context of users' images from being used in face-swapping attacks, while supporting forensic tracing. We present a novel cloaking technique that embeds a selected identity as a stealthy identifier. This mechanism steers the deepfake generation process toward producing content that resembles the chosen cloak identity, thereby preventing successful face-swapping while enabling effective feature-based forensic analysis. The effectiveness and robustness of PhantomSeal is demonstrated in extensive experiments across different face-swapping architectures and models. For example, it reduces the attack success rate of SimSwap, an advanced deepfake model, to 0.30%, and correctly identifies 97.97% of manipulated content.

I think it is very important that we make arguments that actually make sense and take the existing technology into account, even if that develops quickly.
On the other hand, it's also a cat-and-mouse game because when that ethics policy was written, there were no local models capable of helping with reviews and it takes long to make such policies (design by committee!). The arXiv argument was there all the way, though.

I really think for “AI” coding that local models are the future.
It’s basically free to run them on hardware you might already have, doesn’t have the environmental issues that data centers have and you don’t have to share your code or project details with anyone.
I’m a bit ambivalent about the ethics of the training data—for coding stuff that data is mostly open source code. I don’t have an issue with my MIT-licensed stuff used for this, but I know other authors do and their preferences should be honored.
I’m hoping that we get “clean” models for this in the future.
Generally I don’t think LLM-assisted programming is universally applicable to all software development but it can be a useful tool.
I also don’t think LLMs are useful for much else (coding is like a one in a million special case). ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
