U.S. Withdraws From Iraq After Two Decades
Original: U.S. Withdraws From Iraq After Two Decades, and Trump Tells A.I. Giants to Police Themselves https://www.nytimes.com/202
The United States is ending its military presence in Iraq more than two decades after the 2003 invasion, in a major shift for the Middle East. In the same news cycle, President Trump has told leading artificial intelligence companies to regulate themselves rather than face government oversight. Commenters are weighing the significance of both moves, pairing the close of a long military chapter with a hands-off approach to the AI industry.
Why now: A major US military withdrawal and a new hands-off stance on AI regulation broke together in the news cycle.
