Can ideas developed thousands of years ago help leaders make better decisions about AI, data and digital transformation today? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I speak with Alfonso Asensio, author of Digital Wisdom: Leading Transformation With the Sophia Factor and head of data measurement for global clients at Google in Tokyo. Alfonso has spent his career working across data, digital business and global client leadership, but his latest work looks beyond technical capability. He asks what changes when organizations bring sound judgment, ethical reasoning and human purpose into the decisions that shape digital change. We begin with Sophia, the classical Greek idea of wisdom. Alfonso argues that modern business often treats wisdom as another word for knowledge, even though the older idea also included practical intelligence and judgment. Technical expertise can tell a company whether a system can be built. Wisdom asks why it should be built, who benefits and what consequences may follow. That distinction matters when businesses feel pressure to adopt AI because competitors are doing the same. Alfonso shares the story of a large company with the resources, talent and urgency to pursue an ambitious digital program. When he asked what the business was trying to achieve, the answer became a list of fashionable technologies. AI-driven customer activity, blockchain supply chains and data optimization had become substitutes for a clear objective. His conclusion was that the company was attempting to build its future on buzzwords. Sometimes the better decision is to remain analog in a particular process if that choice serves customers and employees better. We also consider Socratic thinking in organizations where boards and investors expect certainty. For Socrates, confusion was a stage in learning rather than a failure of leadership. Alfonso believes leaders can use probing questions to expose assumptions and contradictions before a technology plan becomes expensive. Admitting uncertainty can be difficult, but false certainty can send a business confidently in the wrong direction. Heraclitus offers another useful comparison. Technology resembles a river that never stops moving, while employees need stability and meaning. Alfonso argues that leaders should create stable banks around that flow through a consistent capacity for improvement, adaptation and long-term thinking. The tools will continue to change, but organizations can reduce exhaustion when people understand the purpose behind that change and have a reliable way to respond. One of the most memorable parts of our conversation compares large language models with the Oracle of Delphi. Ancient leaders sought answers from an institution whose workings they could not fully see. Modern users can receive equally confident guidance from AI systems without knowing which data, assumptions or commercial interests influenced the response. Alfonso's point is not that machines are mystical. It is that people need discernment, source awareness and judgment when an answer arrives with authority. We then turn to Epicurus and the idea of ataraxia, or freedom from anxiety. In a business setting, Alfonso connects this with reducing unnecessary friction, decision fatigue and overload. Systems should be reliable, suited to the organization and valuable to employees as well as customers. Governance sometimes requires deliberately adding friction before investment, so teams can pressure test assumptions and ask whether people will be served by a tool or forced to serve it. Alfonso closes with two questions for any leader considering a major AI decision. What is our identity as an organization, and are we acting ethically? He uses Blockbuster as an example of a company that defined itself through videotape rental rather than entertainment. A clear identity can help a business choose technology that supports its purpose. The ethical check then asks whether transparency, consent and accountability are present, or whether data and algorithms are being used to manipulate people. Are organizations giving themselves enough time to ask why an AI system should exist before asking how quickly it can be deployed? Listen to the conversation, then share your thoughts with me.

Solana just took the most historic step in its governance history: its first real on-chain vote, where any SOL holder — not just validators — could weigh in on the network's constitution, inflation and fees.Camila Russo sits down with Nick Almond, Head of Governance at the Jito Foundation, right as that shift collides with a new threat: Robinhood's own chain moving in on meme coins, the one corner of crypto that was always Solana's. Nick breaks down how the vote actually played out — including the disinflation proposal that was decided with eight seconds left after Kraken flipped its vote — how JitoSOL swung its entire stake pool with a 13% quorum trigger, and why he still thinks Solana's shot at attracting new apps, from tokenized stocks to meme coins, is stronger than people give it credit for.Presented by Oasis — a self-custody wallet built on a 2/3 multisig.

For years, firefighters and their union have been sounding the alarm about Fire and Emergency New Zealand. Now, a select committee report backs that up, finding that FENZ leadership misled select committee and has mismanaged the purchase of new fire trucks. National MP Tim Costley, deputy chair of the Governance and Administration Committee spoke to Guyon Espiner.

As the world becomes increasingly interconnected, our lives are increasingly influenced by decisions made outside our national constituencies. Today, government actionsare likely to affect many people who never participated in elections in which the government in question ran for office. This applies to various policy areas but seems especially true in the financial sphere. As the financial crisis in the late 2000's has shown, the absence of governmental oversight regardingfinancial activities in a country can have consequences far beyond its borders.One mechanism to address this is transnational peer review of financial regulators. Such peer review aims to enable supervisory convergence and dissemination of best practices. Yet, mechanisms of transnational governance themselves are often claimed to undermine democracy by giving decision-making power to experts and thereby taking it out of the hands of publicly elected officials. In this conversation, Yane Svetiev analyzes processes of peer review of financial regulators – both their peril and their promise.

Now for some time, I'd say this would be over a number of years, I've been receiving texts from firefighters who are extremely unhappy with the way their organisation is being run. It hasn't just been over this latest pay dispute and the strikes. This has been ongoing for a couple of years now. There haven't been outright accusations per se, but a deep-seated uneasiness, and in some cases anger, about the way FENZ is running the organisation and the way they're treating firefighters. Now a scathing report has confirmed what they have been saying. The board is under fire and under threat of removal, and questions are being asked as to whether FENZ is capable of buying its own fire trucks, sourcing its own materials. Brooke van Velden, the Minister for Fire and Emergency, says she has absolutely no confidence in the chief executive Kerry Gregory, nor indeed of the board. National MP Tim Costley, who's the deputy chair of the Governance and Administration Committee, said the report into FENZ lays bare years of failings. For example, FENZ bought 30 new fire trucks in 2019. Well, that's good, isn't it? That's what the firefighters have been striking for. Well, yes, they're still not being used. They're almost obsolete before they've put a tyre on the road. Costley says the evidence shows FENZ has not been able to deliver. They've consistently had delays, they've consistently had issues with the trucks, and it looks like they have a culture of changing the design halfway through the process regularly, which would be a bit tricky for the manufacturers. Ladder trucks that FENZ bought have also suffered significant delays. Despite a final inspection in July 2025, they're still sitting with the original manufacturers, not yet delivered to FENZ and far from being put into operational use, which puts the firefighters at risk. They don't have the equipment they need to do the job. How the hell can you have 30 new trucks that were bought seven years ago that are still not being used? The pay disputes are ongoing. Every time I go past my Birkenhead fire station between just after midday when I finish work and there they are, standing on the side of the road, placards and horns tooting. Yesterday Brooke van Velden said she had no confidence in the CEO of FENZ or its board, specifically because of a serious breach of the no surprises clause as she told Mike Hosking this morning. BvV: There's always been issues with Fire and Emergency. We've always known that. Lots of historic issues, payroll, the fleet procurement, asset management. But at least when I've known about it, I've been able to actively hold them accountable to their plans and processes and we have actually seen some progress. This was active withholding of information and I think it reeks of people thinking they're above the law. MH: Indeed, what is it about FENZ because as you say it's been going on for years in various different guises. What is it about FENZ in and of itself that's so uniquely hopeless? BvV: Well, I've asked my officials specifically that question, which is is it because it is a Crown entity so at arm's length from government ministers that they are essentially a law unto themselves. And so I've asked for some immediate advice on whether or not there does need to be a better change to the law to allow for better accountability. Is it the fact that it is a Crown entity that is leading to these widespread cultural issues at play? Why are they not under the purview of the Crown? Make them like the Police, have a Fire Commissioner. Ensure that their funding is steady and reliable and within the budget, not dependent on people paying insurance levies. Because at the moment that's how a significant amount of their operational budget is raised: through levies. And when people cut back on their insurance when times are tough, hello, like right now, then that is felt by FENZ. If they were like the Police, then their budget would be assured. They'd always want more, of course, but at least surely to God they'd get trucks on the road and ladder trucks that could be used by the firefighters. And what is it about public servants that they don't understand their very titles? They serve the public. No, they appear to be serving themselves or they appear to be so hopeless they don't know how to do the job properly. We've seen that with immigration and an ongoing case in immigration. We've seen that now with the board and chair of FENZ. Is the job beyond them? Is it so big that they don't know what they're doing? Are they just not being, for want of a better word, are they not being ridden properly? When you're a minister you have to be on top of your department. Given that this isn't a government department per se, would it be better to have them under a good minister? But then the department is only as good as its minister. When you've got weak ministers, you've got lazy ministers, then the public servants know they can get away with anything. Well, I'm not going to call them public servants because a lot of them are not. Some of them are, a lot of them are not. I'll call them bureaucrats. They know they can run rings around their new minister and they do so. So you'd need to have a minister who is on top of their portfolio to get any kind of better outcome than we've seen so far. I imagine too that for those firefighters who've been sending in the texts, this will be vindication for you. I mean, there'll be no great joy in it because you still haven't got the equipment you need. It's still all that money has been invested with little to show for it.

This week, Kenny Olson and Jay Kolls sit down with Dr. Manjeet Rege, professor and chair of the Department of Software Engineering and Data Science at the University of St. Thomas and director of its Center for Applied Artificial Intelligence. Rege, the author of Ethics and Governance of Artificial Intelligence, cuts through the hype and the panic. The conversation covers what AI actually does well, where it still fails, who is accountable when it goes wrong, and what “ethical AI” means once the press release is over. Bias, deepfakes, jobs, data centers, governance, and whether Minnesota is ready for any of it all get a turn at the counter.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What's on our plate shapes our health, our communities, our food systems, and the future of the planet. In this special live conversation on Chef AJ's YouTube channel, Dr. Scott Stoll, co-founder of The Plantrician Project, explores the Power of the Plate through a science-grounded, solutions-focused lens. Drawing on decades of clinical experience and the latest research in lifestyle and nutrition medicine, Dr. Stoll connects individual food choices to outcomes that ripple far beyond the dinner table. This discussion is rooted in The Plantrician Project's Six Pillars of the Power of the Plate, a framework that expands nutrition beyond calories and macros to address the full system in which food operates. Human Health How whole food, plant-forward eating supports the prevention and reversal of chronic disease and improves quality of life across the lifespan. Community Well-Being Why access, culture, equity, and education matter, and how food can strengthen communities rather than divide them. Environmental and Planetary Health The role dietary patterns play in climate stability, biodiversity, water use, and ecological resilience. Soil and Regenerative Agriculture Why healthy soil is foundational to nutrient-dense food, resilient farms, and long-term food security. Animal Welfare How food choices intersect with ethics, sustainability, and compassion in modern food systems. Governance, Policy, and Economics Why healthcare costs, food policy, and economic incentives must align with prevention, not just treatment. Dr. Stoll and Chef AJ unpack why nutrition science must move beyond individual behavior change and toward systems-level solutions, and why the future of healthcare depends on reconnecting food, medicine, and planetary health. This conversation also sets the stage for the Power of the Plate Conference, where healthcare professionals, researchers, educators, and changemakers come together to turn evidence into action.

The BRICS summit in New Delhi strengthened common ground among major Global South countries on development, cooperation, multilateralism and global governance reform amid global volatility and recurring regional conflicts, officials and analysts said as President Xi Jinping concluded a two-day visit to India on Sunday.The summit, which brought Xi and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi together for their third consecutive year of bilateral talks, also gave fresh impetus to improving relations between the two neighbors, with broader implications for regional stability and Global South cooperation, they said.Speaking to reporters upon the conclusion of Xi's visit, Foreign Minister Wang Yi described the trip as a major diplomatic engagement with Global South countries in the opening year of China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-30) period.Coming after Xi's visits to Central Asia and the Middle East earlier this month, the trip was strategically significant for advancing high-quality cooperation within the expanded BRICS grouping and strengthening Global South solidarity, Wang said.In less than 24 hours in the Indian capital, Xi attended nearly 10 events, discussed development and cooperation with BRICS leaders, and held in-depth talks with Modi to chart the course of bilateral relations, Wang said.This year marks the 20th anniversary of BRICS cooperation.At the summit, Xi said solidarity and cooperation had always been the source of the grouping's strength.He called on BRICS countries to take a leading role in innovation-driven development, safeguarding peace and stability, promoting exchanges and mutual learning among civilizations, and reforming and improving global governance.At a new historical juncture, Xi had responded to the high expectations of Global South countries by reaffirming the historic mission of BRICS cooperation and charting its future course, Wang said, noting that Xi's urging elevated the strategic importance of BRICS cooperation and bolstered members' resolve and confidence to seek strength through solidarity.Speaking at a media briefing on Saturday, Sudhakar Dalela, secretary for economic relations at India's Ministry of External Affairs, said that there was a broad convergence among BRICS leaders on the need to strengthen multilateralism and to make global governance institutions more representative, inclusive, effective and responsive to today's realities.To bolster the strength of the Global South, Xi said during the summit that Global South countries should jointly defend the rule of law in international affairs, hold high the banner of multilateralism, remain committed to a people-centered development philosophy and jointly advance security governance.He proposed five initiatives for "greater BRICS" cooperation in artificial intelligence, trade and investment facilitation, digital industry, intelligent manufacturing and talent development.Lawrence Loh, director of the Centre for Governance and Sustainability at National University of Singapore's Business School, said "greater BRICS" distinguished itself through concrete plans to benefit people in countries beyond its membership."The BRICS summit has a broader implied message for the international community — global development cannot be based on a zero-sum game mentality where development is pursued at the expense of others," he said.Swaran Singh, a former professor of international relations at Jawaharlal Nehru University in Delhi, India, said that Xi had presented "greater BRICS" as a platform for a more multipolar, rules-based order, with a strong emphasis on practical cooperation.He said Xi's proposals overlapped significantly with India's own emphasis on technology, resilient supply chains and a stronger role for the Global South in shaping international affairs.With China set to assume BRICS' rotating presidency for the fourth time next year, Wang said the country would remain committed to, rooted in and supportive of the Global South, sharing opportunities and pursuing common development on the path toward modernization.The bilateral meeting between Xi and Modi, following their talks in the Russian city of Kazan in 2024 and Tianjin in northern China in 2025, also brought the direction of China-India relations into focus.Wang said the two leaders held candid, in-depth exchanges on strategic and long-term issues shaping bilateral relations, with their most important consensus being that China and India should be partners.Under the leaders' strategic guidance, ties have gradually emerged from a low point, with an expanding range of cooperation, record bilateral trade and more active people-to-people exchanges, Wang said.Improved relations serve the interests of the two countries' more than 2.8 billion people and are also important for strengthening Global South cooperation, he added.India's Ministry of External Affairs said in a statement on Saturday that the leaders welcomed the steady progress in relations since their Tianjin meeting and reaffirmed the need to take a strategic and long-term perspective on the bilateral ties."Differences should not become disputes," the statement said.Wang said that each country's development offers opportunities for the other, and that China-India cooperation has significance far beyond bilateral ties, with implications for the Global South and the world as a whole.He urged both sides to build on the hard-won improvement and implement the leaders' consensus to contribute to regional and global peace and prosperity.multilateralism /ˌmʌltiˈlætərəlɪzəm/n. 多边主义solidarity /ˌsɒlɪˈdærəti/n. 团结；同心协力multipolar /ˌmʌltiˈpəʊlə(r)/adj. 多极的bilateral /ˌbaɪˈlætərəl/adj. 双边的

This week, Smithsonian Institution Secretary Lonnie Bunch announced his retirement after a nearly four decade affiliation with its network and ending his seven year tenure as the first African American and first Historian to lead the institution founded in 1848. A decade ago this month, the National Museum of African American History and Culture opened. Bunche's efforts leading both institutions provide a lens through which to consider ongoing contests over relationships between integrating various national identities into larger Social Structures of state affiliation, citizenship and belonging.In an era where white nationalist nativism in the United States increasingly aligns with global white supremacist political movements, Bunch's structural attempts to integrate various competing narratives of collective memory often inflamed U.S. white nationalist ideologues and extremists determined to use high-stakes cultural battlegrounds to cement an emerging minority rule.This collision of narrative and space echoes Paul Goldberger's recent reflection on the World Trade Center's 25th anniversary in The New York Times, where he observed, "You can destroy something in an instant, but it will take a generation to rebuild it, and even then it cannot ever be the same."The Africana Studies Framework allows us to examine both competing ideas of Governance and underlying Social Structures in which they exist. How do we recognize both interpretive differences and undeniable realities? How can we use Movement and Memory to build self-determining Governance formations? And what can and will emerge in the wake of a shifting world system?Are you a member of Knarrative? If not, we invite you to join our community today by signing up at: https://www.knarrative.com.

Brian and Aaron interview Gavriel Cohen, co-founder and CEO of Nanoco and creator of the open-source agent framework NanoClaw, about securing AI agents in enterprise environments. Cohen shares how he built NanoClaw after discovering major security and safety gaps while using agents for an AI native marketing agency, and how the project grew to over 30,000 GitHub stars and over half a million downloads. They discuss why Fortune 500s, financial institutions, universities, and government groups feel urgent pressure to adopt agents but are blocked by control, privacy, and security concerns. Cohen outlines a zero-trust approach using microVM isolation, no credentials inside agent environments, a policy-enforcing gateway with granular controls, audit logs, cost attribution, and human-in-the-loop approvals at key decision points.SHOW: 1062SHOW TRANSCRIPT: The Enterprise AI Show #1062 TranscriptSHOW VIDEO: https://youtu.be/h906EEQSRs8SHOW LINKS:NanoClaw on GitHubNanoCo homepageTechCrunch: The wild six weeks for NanoClaw's creator that led to a deal with DockerThe New Stack: Gavriel Cohen found his own code inside OpenClaw, so he walked awayOpenAI: The Hugging Face incident and the road aheadSHOW SPONSORS:Nasuni - Activate your data for AI and request a demoNordLayer - Use ENTERPRISE10 for 10% offGUEST BIO:Gavriel Cohen is co-founder and CEO of NanoCo, and creator of NanoClaw, the open-source agent harness he built as a small, auditable, secure alternative to OpenClaw.

The episode highlights a pronounced governance gap in how small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs) are adopting artificial intelligence (AI) tools and services. New research from GTIA, discussed by Sharon Florentine, identifies that while AI use has become nearly universal among SMB end customers of IT service providers, most lack formal policies, leadership, and budgeting structure around their deployment of AI. This reflects a foundational misalignment between AI adoption rates and organizational preparedness.According to the GTIA study, 97–98% of surveyed SMBs are already using AI to some extent, yet only 20–25% do so strategically. Strategic usage is defined by having AI under a leadership role, with established policies and procedures. In addition, only around one-quarter of respondents reported having a dedicated AI budget. This suggests that despite broad AI integration, most spending is ad hoc or drawn from unrelated IT priorities. The research surveyed 520 SMBs across 11 verticals, reinforcing the generalizability of the findings.Supporting discussions emphasized that this misalignment is both an opportunity and a risk for MSPs and ITSPs. Unaddressed gaps in governance, budgeting, and cybersecurity may undermine value delivery and create liability issues. Practical challenges—such as unclear funding sources, lack of proactive customer engagement, and potential cybersecurity risks tied to unmanaged AI use—were described as persistent pain points. It was also noted that shifting to a proactive approach is essential for building trust and effective client partnerships.For MSPs and IT leaders, the operational implications center on the need to address governance and budget planning for AI while maintaining a focus on established IT infrastructure. Relying solely on existing processes may introduce unmanaged risk, particularly as customers expand AI use without adequate oversight. Providers are advised to prepare by developing frameworks for AI budgeting, security controls, and policy development, rather than diverting focus from foundational IT services. Neglecting core infrastructure and data practices in pursuit of unstructured AI integration was identified as a critical operational miscalculation. Supported by: Pax8 ScalePad

Cillian Kieran is the Founder and CEO of Ethyca, where he leads its product vision, engineering strategy, and growth. A serial entrepreneur and privacy engineer with two decades of experience, he launched Ethyca in 2018 to bring privacy-by-design infrastructure to developers. Earlier, he built the digital consultancy CKSK to 100-plus employees across four countries, serving clients like PepsiCo, Heineken, and PlayStation. He pairs deep technical grounding with a track record of scaling data-intensive businesses.  In this episode… As companies expand their use of AI, they need guardrails around how the technology is used by employees and how those systems use enterprise data. Because models are trained on data, bias can be introduced through this information, while systems also continue to use this data to perform different tasks. This creates risk, and managing it requires evaluating what data a model or tool can access, its intent when it uses that data, and the economic, ethical, and regulatory implications of that intended use. So, what controls do companies need to manage AI and company data safely?   Because AI wants to satisfy a user's request, it will keep trying to access data unless clear boundaries define what it can use. Using AI responsibly requires managing the data behind it alongside the technology itself. To do this effectively, companies need to know what data they have collected, where it came from, whether they have sufficient consent, and what legal basis applies to its use. Once companies understand those elements, they can give AI access to the information it needs for a specific purpose while limiting what falls outside that use, allowing them to leverage the value of their data while minimizing risk. Governance also needs to move from written policies into controls that can be enforced on a system in real time. And while AI can streamline processes like privacy risk assessments by gathering information and comparing it against policies, past assessments, and relevant requirements, human privacy experts still need to review the output for accuracy and challenge AI when it's wrong.  In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels talk with Cillian Kieran, Founder and CEO of Ethyca, about the importance of unifying AI governance and data governance. Cillian explains how bringing these two areas together helps companies stay in control of their data while allowing the technology to support the business. He discusses why companies are turning to open-source models for greater sovereignty and cautions that bringing a model in-house can still introduce risks. Cillian also addresses the tension between AI's need for data and privacy's data minimization principles, and he stresses why professionals need to think critically, question AI outputs, and avoid relying on AI as a crutch.

Dr. Hansa Bhargava, Chief Clinical Strategy and Innovation Officer at Healio,  discusses the Healio survey of healthcare professionals to understand evolving attitudes toward AI in clinical practice.  While a significant number of clinicians are leaning into AI adoption, significant trust gaps persist regarding accuracy, data privacy and liability concerns. As AI capabilities advance rapidly, healthcare organizations face pressure to adopt these technologies while maintaining rigorous safeguards and establishing clear policies around shadow AI usage and preserving the human-in-the-loop approach. Hansa explains, "Our core mission is really to support and engage doctors and clinicians in the work that they do. To give you a broad viewpoint, there are about two million peer-reviewed publications a year, and doctors, nurses, and clinicians need to stay up to date to deliver the best quality care to patients. And that is sometimes impossible considering the number of hours that they're doing in the clinical setting. So our goal and our vision are to support them by giving them the information right away and sound bites that they can digest quickly and also get to quickly. Because of that vision and mission, we developed Healio AI to make it even faster and more available in a pure format and using good data sources so that they have the information they need for their patients."   "It's almost impossible for anyone to keep up with those changes. They're exponential, as you just said. And yes, that's definitely a concern, but the other concerns are just fundamental issues of accuracy of the AI delivering the right answers, whether it's frontier models or whether it's a model such as developed by Healio. And then also privacy of patients, data privacy, and also legalities in terms of who holds the bag if things go astray." #Healio #HealioAI #DigitalHealth #HealthcareAI #GenAI #MedicalTechnology #HealthcareProfessionals #CME #PointOfCare #MedicalInformation #HealthTech #PhysicianBurnout #ContinuingEducation #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalJournalism #AIinHealthcare Healio.com  Listen to the podcast here

Healthcare organizations need to understand what their AI can access, what it does, and how its decisions affect patients. In this episode, I speak with Eddie Borrero, Chief Information Technology Officer at Cyera, about helping healthcare organizations adopt AI while protecting sensitive data and maintaining strong governance. Eddie explains how companies are implementing AI across the workforce, business platforms, and software development, and why each area requires clear controls, accountability, and oversight. We also discuss his “offense and defense” framework, the importance of least-privilege access, and the risks created when AI agents inherit more permissions than they need. Eddie also shares why healthcare leaders need visibility, traceability, and explainability to understand how AI uses data and makes decisions.

During Black August 2026, the Asantehene, Otumfo Osei Tutu II, and Otumfo-Yere Julia Osei Tutu of the Asante People are visiting the United States. Their trip features a Royal Lecture at Howard University and an Akwasidae Festival at Bowie State University, bracketed by a major African business summit. This historic visit highlights a foundational truth: Global African solidarity and belonging must anchor self-determination to drive local, regional, and global advancement. This journey happens during a time of deep global political friction. As the old Age of European Expansion rapidly deteriorates, powerful nations scramble to renegotiate global arrangements. Meanwhile, political figures in the U.S. fetishize authoritarian leadership and try to destabilize existing political and economic orders. Domestic US communities also struggle to claim collective authority and protect explicit individual rights within a destabilizing US legal system. In grappling with relationships between Governance formations and the Social Structures which hold them together, the Asante delegation raises questions of Governance, where authority is informed by the Cultural Meaning-Making that recognizes relationships between memory and vision, the protective custodianship of Ancestral continuity represented by the Golden Stool, and the living assent of the people in renewed and new Governance formations. As corporate lawfare and a compromised SCOTUS threaten US domestic stability, and neoliberal frameworks continue to buffet the modern university, this week we raise questions of structural autonomy, from the protocols of the Asante to the "jailbreaking" of the Black University, and ask several questions: What does it mean to truly govern with the people's assent? How do we reclaim authority when structures built to rule us teeter? What happens when people withdraw their authority? How do we strengthen our global ties for mutual benefit?Are you a member of Knarrative? If not, we invite you to join our community today by signing up at: https://www.knarrative.com.

Kenji Yoshino, Chief Justice Earl Warren Professor of Constitutional Law at New York University School of Law and a member of Meta's Oversight Board, joins Kevin Frazier, director of the AI Innovation and Law Program at the University of Texas School of Law and Senior Editor at Lawfare, and guest co-host Lawfare Senior Editor Kate Klonick, to discuss what frontier AI companies can learn from the Oversight Board. Yoshino recently co-authored a Tech Policy Press piece with fellow Board member Ronaldo Lemos arguing that meaningful AI oversight should feature independent and representative overseers, external standards, and transparent, reasoned decisions.The trio tests that proposal against some of the hardest questions raised by the Oversight Board's own experience.
