New Comment

I'm closely following this as an export compliance specialist; having worked both on enforcement and corporate compliance.    I'll comment further when I have more time (this is a very complex problem) but I feel as though the problem from a regulatory standpoint is multifaceted.  The government is highly reliant on industry (and probably more importantly and often overlooked, academia) to interpret export regulations and self-regulate the development of AI.  BIS has been playing catch-up for the past three or four years, when it was probably already at least half a decade behind and has been relying on list-based end user controls to impose licensing requirements and enforce them rather than having a comprehensive and holistic approach to AI and its derivative technologies.

Why do you think you're right?

I'm updating based on the announcement of troops deployed to operate THAAD missile batteries earlier this month (https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/13/politics/israel-iran-antimissile-system-us-troops/index.html.  I would expect that these systems will be a target, and while U.S. forces are probably not the desired target as much as the systems themselves, there is a potential for U.S. casualties. F-16s have been deployed to CENTOM AOR, but I presume they are in a friendly Arab country, I presume Qatar (https://www.middleeastmonitor.com/20241025-us-deploys-f-16-jets-to-middle-east-amid-rising-tensions-over-potential-israel-strike-on-iran/)
