Description

Sen. Todd Young (R-Ind.) is big on investing in research in cutting-edge technologies, especially artificial intelligence and biotechnology. But lately, that’s put him in a position of pushing back against the leader of his own party, President Donald Trump, who has imposed steep and swift cuts to federal research funding at agencies and universities. On POLITICO Tech, host Steven Overly sits down with Young for a live interview at the AI+ Expo in Washington to talk about that tension and more. 




Steven Overly is the host of POLITICO Tech and covers the intersection of politics and technology.


Nirmal Mulaikal is the co-host and producer of POLITICO Energy and producer of POLITICO Tech.
