The United States and China are locked in a race for dominance in artificial intelligence, including its applications and diffusion. American and Chinese AI firms like OpenAI and DeepSeek respectively have captured global attention and major companies like Google and Microsoft have been actively investing in AI development. While the US currently boasts world-leading AI models, China is ahead in some areas of AI research and application. With the release of US and Chinese AI action plans in July, we may be on the cusp of a new phase in US-China AI competition.Why is AI so important for a country's global influence? What are the strengths of China's AI strategy? And what does China's new AI action plan tell us about its AI ambitions? To discuss these questions, we are joined by Owen Daniels. Owen is the Associate Director of Analysis at Georgetown's Center for Security and Emerging Technology and a Non-Resident Fellow at the Atlantic Council. His recently published article in Foreign Affairs co-authored with Hanna Dohmen -- titled China's Overlooked AI Strategy -- provides insights into how Beijing is utilizing AI to gain global dominance and what the US can and should do to sustain and bolster its lead.Timestamps[00:00] Start [02:05] US Policy Risks to Chinese AI Leadership [05:28] Deepseek and Kimi's Newest Models  [07:54] US vs. China's Approach to AI [10:42] Limitations to China's AI Strategy  [13:08] Using AI as a Soft Power Tool  [16:10] AI Action Plans  [19:34] Trump's Approach to AI Competition [22:30] Can China Lead Global AI Governance?  [25:10] Evolving US Policy for Open Models

Suchitra Vijayan speaks with Eric Sype and Jalal Abukhater from 7amleh, The Arab Center for the Advancement of Social Media. They interrogate how Israel's assault on Palestinians is enabled by global tech giants, weapon manufacturers, data brokers, and social media platforms. Building on UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese's landmark report Forever-Occupation, Genocide, and Profit, they examine the “economy of genocide” in which Palestinian life is commodified, Palestinian data becomes raw material for AI-driven warfare, and digital platforms facilitate both propaganda and erasure. The discussion traces 7amleh's evolution from monitoring online censorship to mapping the broader system of digital apartheid. Eric and Jalal detail how big tech companies, Google, Meta, Microsoft, Amazon, have deepened ties with the Israeli state, operating R&D centres that produce surveillance, predictive policing, and autonomous weapons systems, all battle-tested on Palestinians. They also document systematic shadow banning, takedowns, and narrative control on social media, particularly since October 2023, when Meta reversed prior human rights commitments and accelerated censorship of Palestinian voices. This silencing operates in tandem with physical violence: ICT infrastructure in Gaza is deliberately destroyed to impose communications blackouts. The episode closes by examining tech worker resistance and the structural parallels between today's profit-driven annihilation and earlier stages of capitalism built on slavery and colonial extraction. Dismantling big tech's role in genocide requires intersectional organising — uniting tech workers, human rights defenders, and users — to disrupt both the flow of data and the profits it generates. #technology #genocideingaza #meta #microsoft #google

It's a weird time to be an environmental scientist. The proposed cuts to federal science funding in the United States are profound, and if they come to pass, it's not clear what American science will look like on the other side. But for many researchers, science is much more than a career: it's a community, lifestyle, and sometimes even a family business. Outside/In producer Justine Paradis tagged along with researchers in the field to learn what it's like to be a scientist right now. We visit one of the oldest atmospheric monitoring stations in the country, and venture onto the Finger Lakes with an ad-hoc group of researchers struggling to understand an emerging threat to water quality: harmful algal blooms.This is a glimpse of the people behind the headlines, navigating questions both personal and professional, and trying to find ways to continue their work, even as much of their funding is simultaneously collapsing around them. Featuring Bob Howarth, Joshua Thienpont, Irena Creed, Nico Trick, Anita Dedić, and Tom Butler, with appearances from Roxanne Marino, Renee Santoro, and Garreth Smith.  SUPPORTTo share your questions and feedback with Outside/In, call the show's hotline and leave us a voicemail.

It references a Federal Reserve Bank analysis, finding that for every dollar spent on R&D by the major federal agencies, there's been a return to U.S. taxpayers of $1.50-$3.00—in other words, 150-300%.The American Association for the Advancement of Science has been tracking the federal science budget for decades, and publishes an ongoing analysis breaking down the proposed cuts.A map tracking harmful algal blooms in New York State. In the early 2000s, some wondered if seeding the ocean with iron could be a climate solution. They hoped that the iron would trigger the growth of marine phytoplankton and sequester carbon in the ocean. But when Charlie Trick and his colleagues studied it, they learned it had unintended consequences: it triggered the growth of highly toxic algal blooms.A paper on the rise of ammonia, using data from the National Atmospheric Deposition Program and co-authored by Tom Butler.A letter condemning the proposed cuts to science in FY26, signed by more than 1200 members of the National Academy of Sciences. CREDITS Produced by Justine Paradis.
