Pope Leo XIV wrote the best document on AI this year — and it reads as systems engineering, not moralizing. Concentrating AI in a few labs is systemic brittleness, not strength. The fix: subsidiarity + data sovereignty. "He's not asking us to slow down. He's asking us to grow up." aaronfulkerson.com/2026/05/26/mag…
@radian @radian will go into more details at @confcompsummit ccs26 CC Summit 2026 – San Francisco, June 23-24. confidentialcomputingsummit.com hosted by @linuxfoundation and @opaquesys
Apple made "trust me" obsolete. Private Cloud Compute shipped verifiable privacy — stateless compute, no privileged access, independent verification — across billions of iPhones. Faith is not a security model. Credit to @radian and the Apple security team. aaronfulkerson.com/2026/06/09/app… So no more excuses. If Apple can do it at that scale, your bank, your healthcare provider, and your CRM vendor can too. "Too slow, too expensive" was never a technical limit — it was a choice.
Defining the privacy-preserving #AI roadmap! 🚀 Aaron Fulkerson (@Roebot) from @opaquesys takes the stage at #CCSummit in San Francisco, June 23-24. 🎤 Talk details: sched.co/2NKP4 🗓️ Full schedule: bit.ly/4u9jS5P 🎫 Register: bit.ly/47hX8qK
📍 Tsankawi, Bandelier National Monument, New Mexico 7/5 🥑 Standing on the same mesa where Ancestral Puebloans carved homes into volcanic tuff 1000+ years ago, you can see Los Alamos on the next ridge over. The place where one civilization built something sacred is within line of sight of where another civilization built something that could end everything. Tsankawi is part of Bandelier National Monument, but feels nothing like it—no paved trails. No guardrails. You walk in the literal footsteps of the Ancestral Puebloans—petroglyphs on the cliff faces, carved cavates in the rock, and a trail worn so deep into the mesa top by centuries of human feet that you’re walking through a groove in solid stone. The San Ildefonso Pueblo still considers this land sacred. Their ancestors lived here, farmed here, read the seasons in the canyon walls. The continuity is unbroken—this isn’t a ruin. It’s a living cultural landscape. Then in the 1940s, the US government took the mesa next door and built Los Alamos National Laboratory. The Manhattan Project. The place where we split the atom and built the weapon that redefined what humans are capable of—for better and worse. Two mesas. One where people built a civilization in harmony with the landscape over centuries, more than 1000 years. One where people unlocked the power to unmake landscapes in seconds. I don’t have a lesson here. But walking the Tsankawi trail and feeling the weight of centuries of feet that carved footpaths while the lab sits quietly on the horizon is haunting.
@whurley @Strangeworks Looking forward to it.
Upcoming Session Highlight: Transformation Readiness, Governance, and Risks In this session we will dive into common challenges with AI transformations. We know that a large percentage of transformations get bogged down going form pilot projects to production. There are legimitate concerns about customer, financial, regulatory, and brand risks when something goes wrong. Many organizations also find themselves ill-prepared for anything but the most cosmetic changes. How can they find a path to success before it’s too late and they overtaken by faster-moving competitors? To dive deeper into this topic, join Frode Odegard, Blaine Mathieu, Aaron Rieke, Henry Peter, Tatyana Mamut, PhD and Aaron Fulkerson at the Post-Industrial Summit 2026 on Autonomous Organizations. post-industrial.institute/summit-2026/ Post-Industrial Summit 2026: Autonomous Organizations February 4-5, Menlo Park, CA
SF, A Phoenix: San Francisco is one of the greatest cities of the last hundred years. It sparked the Summer of Love, helped launch a global music movement, and became the definitive epicenter of modern technology. I grew up 69 miles south in Morgan Hill, back when it was mostly farmers and ranchers, but I spent plenty of time as a teenager hanging out in the Haight... Here's my thoughts on the failure/demise of SF: aaronfulkerson.com/2025/12/13/a-p…
The mission of the U.S. Constitution is to frustrate the human drive to concentrate power by spelling out limits on government and clear, enforceable rights. And by creating a systems of competing branches that hold each other accountable. “How to Read the Constitution—and Why” by Kimberly Wehle teaches you to read the text at its source and see how it protects liberty in real conflicts. aaronfulkerson.com/2026/01/25/rea…
