The United States is now embracing a more unilateral and aggressive technology strategy, prioritizing technological dominance over multilateral cooperation, @TFeakin and Adam Segal argue. foreignpolicy.com/2025/06/04…
Diving into Trump’s second-term tech playbook with @adschina in @ForeignPolicy - from chip crackdowns to AI deals in the Gulf, it’s techno-nationalism on full blast.

China's DeepSeek is the latest move in the intensifying race for AI dominance. The US and its allies will need to rethink their strategy if they are to stay ahead. My initial thoughts .@RUSI_org
'While the US retains an edge in fundamental AI research and technology, China has shown that breakthroughs in efficiency and accessibility can be equally disruptive' writes @TFeakin in the latest #RUSICommentary.

A hectic weekend for all IT professionals & the public, thanks @theprojecttv for having me on to talk about the world’s largest ever IT outage 📱💻🚨

Former Ambassador for Cyber Affairs Dr @TFeakin joins us.
#geopolitics & #technology are set to collide in 2024 as the impact of elections, conflicts & #ai escalate in profound ways for business and government leaders. My recent oped:
