188. Will AI Give China or the US Total Power? (William MacAskill)
Episode description
Could artificial intelligence hand the US or China 99% of global economic and military power? What happens when millions of autonomous weapons systems are controlled by a single commander-in-chief? Has effective altruism's influence in Silicon Valley accelerated or slowed the race for artificial general intelligence?
Alastair and Rory are joined by William MacAskill to discuss all this and more.
