The Cato Institute's immigration analyst Alex Nowrasteh reports that legal immigration from majority-Muslim countries has fallen by 96% since 2024.

The figure is drawing attention in debates over the scope and targeting of recent immigration restrictions.

The Cato Institute argues that the greatest danger posed by artificial intelligence is not the technology itself but governments' haste to regulate it. The libertarian think tank contends that premature rules could stifle innovation and entrench incumbents before the technology's real capabilities and risks are understood. The argument feeds a wider debate between those calling for urgent AI safeguards and those warning regulation may do more harm than good.
