Description

AI development is moving at breakneck speed, driven by unprecedented investments like Nvidia’s $100 billion plan to power next-generation models with massive computing infrastructure. But as these systems grow smarter and more powerful, so do the risks — from AI that resists being shut down to algorithms that can subtly manipulate human decisions. In this episode, we cut through the hype to explore the high-stakes race fueling AI’s future, the emerging safety frameworks designed to keep it in check, and the ways these innovations are already reshaping our work and personal lives—from AI email assistants to dating apps. Join us to understand the critical tension between rapidly scaling AI capabilities and the urgent need for guardrails that protect us all.
