‘AI Superpowers’: A Conversation With Kai-Fu Lee

The United States has long been the leader in artificial intelligence. But Dr. Kai-Fu Lee — one of the world’s most respected experts on AI —  reveals that China has caught up to the U.S. at an astonishingly rapid pace. As Sino-American competition in AI heats up, Lee envisions China and the U.S. forming a powerful duopoly in AI. He outlines the upheaval of traditional jobs, how the suddenly unemployed will find new ways of making their lives meaningful, and how the Chinese and American governments will have to cope with the changing economic landscape. Dr. Lee predicts that Chinese and American AI will become a dominant force in world politics and economics, with stunning impact for both traditional blue-collar industries as well as white-collar professions.

What does an AI-dominated world look like? How will AI impact Sino-American relations and other multilateral cooperation? Join us for a special event with Kai-Fu Lee in conversation with Andrew McLaughlin.
