Policy Voices | AI & Democracy: Collaborating for a global impact

This podcast episode is part of a special series by Debating Europe delving into the most pressing issues raised by AI in our democracies.

With the United States winning the AI race and the EU leading on legislative power, could this be the perfect match on global collaboration? It does seem like it but there might be some unintended consequences to the EU’s regulation force with the US taking a bit too personally Europe’s take on digital sovereignty. But despair not as this week’s guests remain optimistic nonetheless to the outlook of EU-US global collaboration on AI. After all, with the threat that China poses to both powers, there are, after all, good enough reasons to collaborate. In the fifth episode of the special series on AI & Democracy brought to you by Debating Europe, host Catarina Vila Nova speaks with Andrea Renda, Director of Research at the Centre for European Policy Studies, and Geoffrey Gertz, Senior Fellow at the Center for a New American Security, on what a global collaboration between the EU and the US on artificial intelligence looks like.
