Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Interview: David Lat on private equity, AI & other legal trends
Q: Do you think there's a sense that we're just scared that there's a new technology, that maybe those fears are overblown?
Lat says some fears about new technology may be overstated, while acknowledging concerns about job loss and displacement. He notes that past technological advances have often helped people improve and augment their abilities.
Interview: David Lat on private equity, AI & other legal trends
Q: How have you seen the profession evolve over the years?
Lat identifies a faster pace driven by information sharing, increased wealth and compensation in large law firms, and a shift toward a more commercial, business-focused profession.
Interview: What the 2026 Midterms mean for Crypto and AI, with Justin Slaughter
Q: What do you think this does mean to the crypto industry? I mean, is it time to batten down the hatches, rethink how we approach the entire political sphere?
Slaughter advises against preparing only for a fight with regulators or treating crypto as a single-party industry. He recommends explaining crypto's value and engaging Democrats in good faith over the next two years.
Interview: What the 2026 Midterms mean for Crypto and AI, with Justin Slaughter
Q: What makes you feel that this is a signal that the approach Democrats and Republicans have taken is changing, rather than simply repeating?
Slaughter points to new issues such as AI data centers, generational turnover among lawmakers, and election results that suggest political realignment. He says a large freshman class may create its own priorities rather than follow established congressional patterns.
Interview: Blockchains & the Bank Secrecy Act, with Rebecca Rettig, Omid Malekan and Michael Mosier
Q: How do you think that changes the privacy implications, or what are some of the big privacy implications that you're thinking about when the three of you think about the future of finance, with this merging of institutional finance and permissionless in the future?
Michael Mosier highlights risks from data breaches, AI-enabled aggregation and permanent on-chain records, and calls for user empowerment and selective disclosure. Omid Malekan adds that privacy-preserving tools such as zero-knowledge proofs could help reduce reliance on mass data surveillance.
