Meta Absorbs Virtue AI: Who Controls AI Safety Now?

Meta acquired Virtue AI—the artificial intelligence safety startup backed by the NSA and recognized at NeurIPS—just as Washington imposes the toughest regulations in history on agentic AI. Who controls the AI guardians now?

In this episode, we examine why Meta paid whatever it took for Bo Li, Dawn Song, and Sanmi Koyejo: three of the leading researchers in language model safety. We also cover Trump’s executive order on AI, the White House’s forced shutdown of Anthropic, and what the shift toward autonomous AI agents means for global regulation. Artificial intelligence safety is no longer an academic debate: it’s now being discussed at the Department of Defense and influencing hiring decisions at the world’s most valuable companies.
