A CSET workshop report was highlighted in an segment published by Axios in its Axios+ newsletter. The segment explores the growing push toward automating AI research and development, examining how far AI systems might go in designing, improving, and training other AI models and what that could mean for innovation, safety, and governance.

CSET’s Sam Bresnick shared his expert perspective in an article published by The Wall Street Journal. The article examines how TSMC’s expanding global footprint, especially its growing U.S. chip investments, is reshaping strategic thinking about Taiwan’s semiconductor industry and challenging the idea that its chips alone serve as a “Silicon Shield” against Chinese aggression.

CSET’s Andrew Lohn shared his expert perspective in an op-ed published by The National Interest. In the piece, he explains that AI-assisted hacking signals a deeper cybersecurity threat: not new tools, but the breakdown of core defenses like defense in depth against adaptive, large-scale attackers.

Cole McFaul shared his expert analysis in an article published by BBC News. The article discusses President Donald Trump’s decision to allow Nvidia and other U.S. chipmakers to sell their H200 AI chips to approved customers in China, a move that partially reverses earlier restrictions and has significant implications for U.S.-China technology competition.

A CSET explainer was highlighted in an article published by Bloomberg. The article discusses new bipartisan legislation that would restrict U.S. companies, including Nvidia, from exporting advanced AI chips to China, reinforcing existing controls and shaping the future of U.S. technology policy.

Sam Bresnick and Cole McFaul shared their expert analysis in an op-ed published by The Hill. In their piece, they explain why relaxing U.S. export controls on advanced AI chips would pose significant national security risks, especially as new evidence shows the Chinese military actively acquiring and using American semiconductors.

CSET’s Jacob Feldgoise shared his expert analysis in an article published by CNN. The article discusses the differences between Google’s custom Tensor chips and Nvidia’s GPUs, and how these distinctions shape the AI hardware landscape.

CSET’s Kyle Miller shared his expert analysis in an article published by WIRED. The article discusses how OpenAI’s new open-weight models are drawing significant interest from the U.S. military and defense contractors, who see potential for secure, offline, and customizable AI systems capable of supporting sensitive defense operations.

CSET’s Hanna Dohmen shared her expert analysis in an article published by CNBC. The article discusses how China continues to advance in artificial intelligence despite U.S. restrictions on access to Nvidia’s most advanced chips.

CSET’s Helen Toner was featured on the 80,000 Hours Podcast, where she discusses AI, national security, and geopolitics. Topics include China’s AI ambitions, military use of AI, global AI adoption, and recent tech leadership changes.
