This week, Alan, Quinta, and Scott celebrated the third anniversary of Rational Security 2.0 with their Lawfare colleagues Molly Reynolds, Natalie Orpett, and Tyler McBrien, who sat in brutal judgment as the three co-hosts pitched them their hottest takes yet, including:
- Are concerns about judicial ethics overblown?
- Do ethics require that we open the borders and make whoever wants to become one a citizen?
- Should we just treat AI systems like the wild animals they are?
Which takes are undercooked, which too hot, and which are just right? Listen in and decide!
Meanwhile, for object lessons, Scott shared some news about the future of Rational Security moving forward. Listen to the end of the episode to find out what!
