(This is a fascinating discussion with Pepe Escobar by Dimitri Simes Jr that covers the emergence of AI over many decades and the evolution of massive online computing centers like Google, Microsoft, Oracle, plus Facebook & Twitter/X. I've been in the hi-tech software development field for most of my professional life and I was definitely impressed with how well Pepe understands what is happening. He also contrasts the key differences between American & Chinese approaches. Pay close attention to what he says about the new DeepSeek R1 AI project that has been made available for free. There is a lot to digest here. — RAD)
