Listen "AI Is Transforming Geopolitics — with Bruno Maçães and Faisal Al Yafai"
Episode Synopsis
The global geopolitical landscape is changing, but not in the way you might think. In place of traditional armies facing off on the battlefield, or nuclear-backed superpowers, there's a new force: AI. On this week’s episode of The Lede, politician and New Statesman columnist Bruno Maçães, author of “World Builders: Technology and the New Geopolitics,” tells New Lines’ Faisal Al Yafai how the battle lines are being drawn in a virtual world — and how the builders of the strongest AI language models will be the true power brokers of the future.
