Washington Monuments
--------------------

On Tuesday afternoon, I took an Uber across Lake Washington, from Seattle t=
o Bellevue, for a small event
featuring my partner Ian Krietzberg, Puck=E2=80=99s resident A.I. wunderkin=
d. The Pacific Northwest has an unfair reputation for somnolence; the reali=
ty is that it=E2=80=99s a more expansive version of Silicon Valley. As I lo=
oked out the windows of Ascend, a beautiful restaurant that would=E2=80=99v=
e been at home in Hudson Yards or Beverly Hills, I saw not only Mount Raini=
er, but the offices of Microsoft, Amazon, and ByteDance, the parent company=
 of TikTok.

The timing of Ian=E2=80=99s chat was
fortuitous. Anthropic=E2=80=99s latest product release, among other factors=
, had prompted a sell-off across a number of enterprise technology stocks=
=E2=80=94signaling a rotation away, perhaps, from parts of the A.I. industr=
y. It was the perfect moment for Ian to explain the exogenous factors and t=
he industry=E2=80=99s interconnectivity across the economy, from financial =
services to manufacturing. After all, it=E2=80=99s all one world at the top=
 of the pyramid.

In fact, the burgeoning A.I. trade is also relying on
government contracts for revenue to fuel those frothy valuations and market=
 capitalizations. One voracious client has been the Department of Homeland =
Security=E2=80=94and ICE, in particular. In America=E2=80=99s A.I. Dragnet =
( https://puck.news/ice-surveillance-state-trumps-ai-powered-dragnet-expose=

ustomer.io&utm_term=3Df6c60615e3d301d48d28 ), Ian masterfully explains how =
a $30 billion budget has been deployed to marshal artificial intelligence r=
esources into a veritable
surveillance state. =E2=80=9CThe department=E2=80=99s push into A.I., accor=
ding to Nick Reese, who ran emerging technology at D.H.S. between 2019 and =
2023, wasn=E2=80=99t supposed to look like this,=E2=80=9D Ian wrote. =E2=80=
=9CIn the final weeks of Trump=E2=80=99s first term, the president signed E=
xecutive Order 13960 ( https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/12/08=

promoting the use of =E2=80=98trustworthy=E2=80=99 A.I. in the federal gove=
rnment.=E2=80=9D But, of course, Trump II has been far less constrained tha=
n Trump I.

In those early days, Ian reports, the administration engaged in all sorts o=
f high-minded conversations around acceptable data use=E2=80=94including ho=
w to wall off various databases from D.H.S. that posed civil rights concern=
s. =E2=80=9CPart of the challenge is that there=E2=80=99s data that is coll=
ected not for law enforcement purposes that is now being piped into law
enforcement,=E2=80=9D Reese told Ian. But the second Trump administration p=
ivoted toward a =E2=80=9Cmove fast and break things kind of mentality.=E2=
=80=9D If you want a more comprehensive assessment of the very real practic=
al applications of this new platform technology, and how they square with o=
ur citizenship, I urge you to read Ian=E2=80=99s piece.

Shortly after our talk at Ascend ended, I mingled with clients and friends.=
 Of course, we talked about Ian=E2=80=99s work and the markets, but the con=
versations also
meandered to different Puck obsessions. In particular, I was asked about th=
e mass layoffs at the Post and Bob Iger=E2=80=99s successor, both of which =
would be announced the next day. (Believe me, Seattle is hardly a provincia=
l town=E2=80=A6) To each question, I merely offered that my interlocutor sh=
ould look forward to reading about what really went down in future issues o=
f Puck.

On Friday, my partner Matt Belloni dove into the Burbank plotline with a
characteristically excellent piece, Can Disney=E2=80=99s Josh and Dana Hone=
ymoon Last? ( https://puck.news/can-disneys-josh-damaro-dana-walden-coexist=

stomer.io&utm_term=3Df6c60615e3d301d48d28 ). Among other topics, Matt wonde=
red whether the duo could solve Disney=E2=80=99s franchise challenges while=
 managing ESPN and the company=E2=80=99s I.P. flywheel in the post-streamin=
g-correction world. =E2=80=9CDisney=E2=80=99s honeymoon period obscures a b=
unch of underdiscussed challenges across the company, but
especially in the content realm, where D=E2=80=99Amaro is the least experie=

Meanwhile, in For Whom Will Tolls ( https://puck.news/inside-the-washington=

featuring my partner <strong>Ian Krietzberg</strong>, Puck=E2=80=99s reside=
nt A.I. wunderkind. The Pacific Northwest has an unfair reputation for somn=
olence; the reality is that it=E2=80=99s a more expansive version of Silico=
n Valley. As I looked out the windows of Ascend, a beautiful restaurant tha=
t would=E2=80=99ve been at home in Hudson Yards or Beverly Hills, I saw not=
 only Mount Rainier, but the offices of Microsoft, Amazon, and ByteDance, t=
he parent company of TikTok.<br/><br/>The timing of Ian=E2=80=99s chat was
fortuitous. Anthropic=E2=80=99s latest product release, among other factors=
, had prompted a sell-off across a number of enterprise technology stocks=
=E2=80=94signaling a rotation away, perhaps, from parts of the A.I. industr=
y. It was the perfect moment for Ian to explain the exogenous factors and t=
he industry=E2=80=99s interconnectivity across the economy, from financial =
services to manufacturing. After all, it=E2=80=99s all one world at the top=
 of the pyramid.<br/><br/>In fact, the burgeoning A.I. trade is also relyin=
g on
government contracts for revenue to fuel those frothy valuations and market=
 capitalizations. One voracious client has been the Department of Homeland =
Security=E2=80=94and ICE, in particular. In <a href=3D"https://email.puck.n=
