Is “industrial policy” really back? Giovanni Dosi argues it’s mostly a dystopian reboot, more zero-sum than visionary-oriented strategy. Our new NLR–ICLE special issue starts with a bang.

The EU says its AI rules are “future proof.” They’re not, @profschrepel.bsky.social argues. Without adaptive regulation (modular rules, real-time monitoring, plural triggers, institutional memory) Brussels (and others!) will always be behind the curve. www.networklawreview.org/schrepel-fut...

Generative AI exposes GDPR’s limits: consent at scale, accuracy of outputs, erasure in trained models. The fix isn’t more principles, says Florence G'sell (Stanford University), it’s adaptive institutions (EU AI Office, expert panels) and iterative rules. www.networklawreview.org/gsell-statut...

NEW: Jin, Wagman & Zhong show how privacy, security & cross-border data laws overlap with AI policies. These overlaps create trade-offs: innovation vs. protection, competition vs. compliance costs. They call for internationally coordinated AI/data gov www.networklawreview.org/jin-wagman-z...
