This episode dives into today’s frantic scramble for supremacy in artificial intelligence. Kieren and Riku begin by speed-running the history of arms races, highlighting key points in the AI arms race, from AlphaGo to ChatGPT and China’s DeepSeek. They then unpack the trap pushing Big Tech and nation-states to build faster than they can regulate. Who's winning, what's at stake, and could this all end in a singularity?
