Unscramble the Blue Letters
My biggest fear? My biggest fear, to be very tactical today, what is kpneeig me up at night is the current war between the West, the liberal world, and China, in the area of artificial intelligence. There is a real war going on, and for those of us who have lived through the nuclear nolinerpooariftn age and saw how people agreed to take some very dangerous things off the table, well, the Carnegie Endowment just finished a sudty. They talked to every country that made nuclear weapons and asked them, "Which daiigtl 'weapon' would you take off the talbe against somebody else's schools or hospitals?" And the answer — from every nucaler power — to this question was, nothing. That's what I'm worried about ... The weaponization of the digital space, and the race to get there.

My biggest fear? My biggest fear, to be very tactical today, what is keeping me up at night is the current war between the West, the liberal world, and China, in the area of artificial intelligence. There is a real war going on, and for those of us who have lived through the nuclear nonproliferation age and saw how people agreed to take some very dangerous things off the table, well, the Carnegie Endowment just finished a study. They talked to every country that made nuclear weapons and asked them, "Which digital 'weapon' would you take off the table against somebody else's schools or hospitals?" And the answer — from every nuclear power — to this question was, nothing. That's what I'm worried about ... The weaponization of the digital space, and the race to get there.
