Over on Peoplenomics this morning, we’re earning the subscription fee the hard way. We start with the News Compressor and four things that actually matter: Gulf energy flows, Trump-Xi and Taiwan, the newest Russia/Ukraine wrinkle, and the accelerating AI/compute race.

Get it published, please, George.”
So PN readers get it before the rest of the world does.
But today’s main course may be the most important. What happens when AI gets the equivalent of a radio license? We’re digging into the coming collision between AI, privacy, government regulation and your right to think with a machine without somebody standing behind the keyboard taking notes. And I think I’ve landed on a surprisingly simple framework: license the transmitter, not the listener — regulate harmful actions, not private thought. That’s today’s Peoplenomics. Forty bucks a year, and today alone there’s enough reading and listening to wreck most of your morning.
