    Entering a New Chapter in the Debate on AI Policy

    07/17/2026 | 36 mins.
    The landscape of AI policy is changing rapidly.

AI, Energy and Climate host David Sandalow and Siliconsciousness host David Rothkopf join forces to examine the far-reaching debate over AI policy to examine what’s working and what the future might hold.

    Like It or Not, the AI Bubble Is Real

    07/14/2026 | 39 mins.
    The question is when, not if, the AI bubble is going to pop. As tech companies see share values skyrocket, it becomes more clear with each passing day that the value of these companies is built on a house of cards. So just how bad will the rest of us feel the pop? Distinguished Fellow at the Center for Economic and Policy Research Dean Baker joins David Rothkopf to answer this question and more.

    How Can Democrats Get Their Act Together on AI?

    06/26/2026 | 33 mins.
    After recent primaries, it’s clear that AI is top of mind for many Americans. Whether it’s a mistrust of AI as a whole or just the people at the helms of the companies reaping massive profits, it’s clear that it’s past time for Democrats to have a robust tech and AI strategy. Former Director of the National AI Office Karen Kornbluh joins David Rothkopf to consider what Dems need to do for the midterms and beyond to address this critical issue.

    Who Will Find the First AI Jobs Bite the Most Painful?

    06/05/2026 | 33 mins.

But this time, it’s entry-level and white color jobs that are feeling the effects. Georgios Petropoulos join David Rothkopf to discuss his recent article in MIT Technology Review and share how young professionals can prepare themselves for this new reality and why a new social contract is necessary.
