Are we entering an AI era defined not by innovation, but by geopolitical bargaining? In the eleventh episode, Jens de Buhr and Alvin Wang Graylin map the emerging power dynamic between the U.S. and China, as well as Europe’s uncertain position within it. While Washington and Beijing negotiate chips, trade, and AI access, Europe risks becoming a rule-taker rather than a rule-maker. The discussion highlights a structural shift: AI is not just a technological race, but also a lever of economic pressure, national security, and global influence. At the same time, rapid advances in agentic AI and automation are reaching a tipping point, and job displacement is likely to accelerate exponentially. Treating AI as a global public good modeled after CERN emerges as a potential strategic opening for Europe. – Kapitelmarker– About the guests: Jens de Buhr – Founder & CEO, JDB Holding; publisher of DUP UNTERNEHMER; co-founder of the BIG BANG AI Festival.
