Topics:

You wrote a book on cyber and war, how did this come about and what did you most enjoy learning from the other during the writing process?
Is generative AI going to be a game changer in international relations and war, or is it just another tool?
You also touch briefly on lethal autonomous weapons systems and ethics–that feels like the genie is right in the very neck of the bottle right now, is it too late?
Aside from this book, and the awesome course you offered at Brown that sparked Tim’s interest in this field, how can we democratize this space better?
How does the emergence and shift to Cloud impact security in the cyber age?
What are your thoughts on the intersection of Cloud as a set of technologies and operating model and state security (like sovereignty)? Does Cloud make espionage harder or easier?
