About
Threading the Needle is a publication on the political economy of AI progress. I write regular essays on frontier AI policy, its politics, and in particular the implications for AI middle powers and the wider world.
I’m Anton Leicht, a Fellow with the Carnegie Endowment’s Technology and International Affairs team, and a Senior Advisor with Fathom. You can read slightly more about me here.
My work on this blog is supported through my position at Carnegie. It has received funding from Emergent Ventures and Coefficient Giving in the past. All content remains fully editorially independent, and I write in a personal capacity.
