## Resource

In this episode of Higher Intelligence, we explore the growing debate over AI control—open-source innovation versus government regulation. JC is joined by Doug Smith and James Gress to unpack the explosive rise (and security risks) of OpenClaw, the first mass-market autonomous AI agent. They also analyze a high-stakes standoff between Anthropic and the U.S. government over AI ethics and military use. The conversation highlights operational realities, urgent governance questions, and the future of AI policy for higher education leaders navigating rapid technological change.
