How has pervasive connectivity transformed geopolitics? Social media has been weaponised and is now used against nations as a tool of war - invisible, subtle, and dangerously destabilising.

How social media has been weaponised?

 

It looks as though NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang is about to be sacked by his board. Not, as it might seem, for having an affair with a purported Chinese spy, Alice Huang (no relation), who diverted NVIDIA chip orders into China, but because of a newly-revealed affair with a subordinate.

As nearly every part of the planet's most valuable firm reports directly to him, no one knows what this will mean for business, investment, and the forward progress of artificial intelligence.

Is this the most successful intelligence operation in history? Is the US administration implicated? And what happens when the figure at the centre of the AI business - making bank and serving as the industries lender of first resort - steps offstage?

Plus: what the US midterms mean for the data centre buildout, and observations from a recent visit to an AI conference - in China.

Big thanks to Kathryn Ryan and the RNZ Nine to Noon producers for permission to rebroadcast our conversation.

THIS BILLION SECONDS: AI@70 -- EP 5 THE AGE OF COGNITION

AI@70 Episode 4 - AI COMES HOME

AI models get 'trained' inside massive data centres, using some of the most powerful computers ever built. We've now learned how to make those models small enough to run on a laptop. Seventy years after it all kicked off, AI comes home.
