Assorted links 2026-03-15

Assorted things I’ve read, watched, or listened to:

1. A fighting retreat - An email from Will Wilson (CEO and co-founder of Antithesis) to his company, on delaying the inevitable change that occurs when a startup experiences significant growth.

2. AI as tradecraft: How threat actors operationalize AI - A solid roundup of adversaries’ various uses for AI throughout the intrusion lifecycle.

3. Deception and Detection: Why Artificial Intelligence Empowers Cyber Defense over Offense - “Rather than heralding a revolution, AI automation is likely to further tame cyber conflict. Highly skilled human operators, not AI, will be necessary to avoid being detected by AI-empowered defenders.”
