Summary

I am excited to have you join us for this two part episode with one of the leading experts on global politics and technology, Ian Bremmer. He is a thought leader in the space who is helping to shape conversations at the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI), geopolitics, and national security. As the current digital revolution accelerates, Bremmer's perspectives become even more relevant, helping us navigate the shifting landscapes of our time. His polarizing views come from a clear-sighted analysis of potentially devastating effects of AI. Bremmer has gained most of his recognition for his provocative insights on the pressing need for an evolved governance model involving both technology companies and governments. In part 1 of this episode, we’re exploring the depths of how hyper disruptive AI is and the way it's playing out amid global power shifting and never before seen division among people. Ian makes a compelling case for transparency in AI use and advocates for maintaining democratic values in the face of rapid technological change. Join us as we look at both sides of the proliferation of AI and find out what the new cold war looks like and deep dive with us into: *The emphasis on AI and its impacts on geopolitics and national security. *The looming threat of AI misuse by rogue states, terrorists, and everyday people. *Ian’s stance for why a new governance model to regulate AI and collaboration is needed between tech companies and governments.
