“We rarely think about chips, yet they've created the modern world,” writes the historian Chris Miller.He's not exaggerating. Semiconductors power everything from our phones and computers to cars, planes, advanced military equipment, and A.I. systems. Chips are the foundation of modern economic prosperity, military strength and geopolitical power.This conversation with Chris Miller, author of “Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology,” was recorded back in April. But we wanted to re-air it, because what Miller lays out in that book, and in this conversation, is essential to understanding where we are in 2023, and the faultlines that will shape the world ahead. Because semiconductors have  one of the most concentrated supply chains of any technology today. One Taiwanese company, TSMC, produces around 90 percent of the most advanced chips. A single Dutch firm, ASML, produces all of the world's EUV lithography machines, which are essential to produce leading-edge chips. The entire industry is built like this.That doesn't just make the chip supply chain vulnerable to external shocks; it also makes it easily weaponizable by the powers that control it. In 2022, the Biden administration banned exports of advanced chips — and the equipment needed to produce those chips — to China, and then further tightened those rules this October. In August 2022, President Biden signed into law the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act, which includes a $52 billion investment to on-shore U.S. chip manufacturing. China has invested tens of billions of dollars over the past decade to build a domestic semiconductor industry of its own. Chips have become to the geopolitics of the 21st century what oil was to the geopolitics of the 20th.In this conversation, Miller talks me through what semiconductors are, why they matter and how they are shaping everything from U.S.-China relations and the Russia-Ukraine war to the Biden policy agenda and the future of A.I.Mentioned:“The Problem With Everything-Bagel Liberalism” by Ezra KleinBook Recommendations:The World For Sale by Javier Blas and Jack FarchyNexus by Jonathan Reed WinklerPrestige, Manipulation and Coercion by Joseph TorigianThoughts?

Semiconductors or "chips" are the brains behind all modern technology, used in everything from smart phones, to kitchen appliances, cars, medical equipment, and defence intelligence. Over 90 percent of the most advanced chips globally, are manufactured in Taiwan, with half made by just one company, the Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company, or TSMC. Economic historian Chris Miller is the author of the Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology. He says Taiwan is also at the centre of one of the biggest geopolitical struggles of our time, with China's ongoing and increasingly aggressive demands for reunification.

Chip War: How semiconductors became the new oil with Chris MillerSemi-conductors, microchips, are the new oil - the scarce resource on which the modern world depends. Today, military, economic, and geopolitical power are built on a foundation of computer chips. This has only accelerated with the emergence of AI. Yet, the supply chain is incredibly concentrated with just a handful of countries and companies dominating.  As with oil in the previous century, chips sit at the center of geopolitics, great-power rivalry and trade, especially between the US and China. How did chips become some crucial and their supply chains so concentrated and what does it mean for all our futures? Our guest is economic historian Chris Miller, author of Chip War - The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology, the New York Times best seller.

When is economic decoupling not economic decoupling? When it drives your allies to tighter commercial links with your adversary. That's the situation the US finds itself in today, when it comes to its policies directed against China. Since the Trump administration put tariffs on Chinese imports in 2018, the US has been trying to extricate itself from commercial ties with the world's second-largest economy. President Biden has expanded the policy to keep China locked out of US supply chains in a few key high-tech industries. On the outside it looks like decoupling or de-risking is actually working. Business operations are relocating to other southeast Asian countries, India, and Mexico. But in crucial ways, the process is only skin deep. Take a closer look and the exodus from China is actually driving closer integration between the Chinese economy, and those of America's friends. On this week's podcast, hosts Mike Bird, Tom Lee-Devlin and Alice Fulwood, examine whether US policy towards China is really working. Caroline Freund, Dean of the UC San Diego School of Global Policy and Strategy, explains how the countries that are expanding their exports to the US are at the same time becoming more integrated in supply chains with China. And Chris Miller, Associate Professor of international history at Tufts University and author of “Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology” describes how reshoring, and lengthening supply chains is going to come at considerable cost.Sign up for our new weekly newsletter dissecting the big themes in markets, business and the economy at www.economist.com/moneytalks For full access to print, digital and audio editions, subscribe to The Economist at www.economist.com/podcastoffer Hosted on Acast.

Ever since the oil crisis of the 1970s and the creation of the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the United States has held millions of barrels of oil in a stockpile to safeguard the country—and its economy—from future supply shocks. Just as oil has kept the world's economic engine running, a new critical component has emerged: the microchip. Everything from satellites and missiles to cars and toasters are powered by chips, making the semiconductor industry a linchpin of both the global economy and national security. The recent chip shortage affected virtually every industry, revealing a new vulnerability that businesses and policymakers are scrambling to address. Chris Miller, associate professor at Tufts University and author of Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology, and Dennis Lockhart, former president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, join this episode of The OUTThinking Investor to examine the global competition to fortify supplies of semiconductors. They discuss the role of geopolitics in chip production, how artificial intelligence is driving innovation and demand, and macroeconomic implications for investors to consider.

China ist in einer heiklen Lage: Zwar hatte die Kommunistische Partei bereits 2014 verkündet, dass man 2030 der weltweit führende Produktionsstandort für Halbleiter sein will, doch momentan ist die Abhängigkeit von den USA, Südkorea, Japan und Taiwan noch sehr hoch, weshalb westliche Sanktionen Peking arg zu schaffen machen. Trotzdem erzielt die Volksrepublik erste Erfolge bei der Fertigung von Chips, vor allem können inzwischen Halbleiter für Autos, Medizintechnik und die Industrie 4.0 hergestellt werden. Woran es aber hapert, sind die Cutting-Edge-Chips. So werden die neuesten und fortschrittlichsten Halbleiterchips, die auf dem Markt verfügbar sind, genannt – womit man bei 14- oder gar 7-Nanometer-Prozessen angelangt ist. Diese Chips können in verschiedenen Bereichen eingesetzt werden, wie zum Beispiel in Smartphones und Tablets, vor allem aber sind sie für Künstliche Intelligenzen entscheidend. Gewissermaßen ist Souverän, wer über die Produktion dieser Hightech-Chips verfügt. Diese besonders wichtigen Halbleiter werden aber überwiegend in Taiwan hergestellt, was die geopolitische Gemengelage nicht einfacher macht. In der neuen Folge von „Wohlstand für Alle“ sprechen Ole Nymoen und Wolfgang M. Schmitt über Chinas Chipstrategie. Werbung: Hier geht es zum neuen Buch von Isabella M.

Der Wirtschaftskrieg zwischen China und den USA wird in mehreren Sektoren ausgetragen, besonders bedeutend ist die Chip-Produktion. Allein in jedem Smartphone werden über ein Dutzend Chips verbaut. Mit dem iPhone erlebte die Chip-Industrie einen enormen Boom, doch dieser fand nicht im Westen statt, die Fertigung geschah woanders. Bis heute werden die Chips für das iPhone in Taiwan hergestellt. TSMC steht für Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company und ist eines der größten Halbleiterunternehmen der Welt. Es ist spezialisiert auf die Auftragsfertigung von Chips, etabliert wurde dieses Modell von dem Gründer und langjährigen CEO Morris Chang. Der 1931 in China geborene Chang wanderte mit 18 Jahren nach Amerika aus, um eine große Karriere in der Halbleiterindustrie zu machen, bis er in den 80er-Jahren nach Taiwan zog, um dort eine Chip-Produktion aufzubauen, die inzwischen den Weltmarkt anführt. Bekanntlich hat Taiwan einen prekären Status: Was würde also geschehen, wenn China Taiwan einnimmt? Und wie versuchen die USA durch den Chips Act Chinas Aufstieg zur Weltmacht zu bremsen?

The Cognitive Crucible is a forum that presents different perspectives and emerging thought leadership related to the information environment. The opinions expressed by guests are their own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of or endorsement by the Information Professionals Association. During this episode, Chris Whitlock and Frank Strickland discuss the importance of AI Education for Leaders. Drawing upon three decades of leading hundreds of advanced analytics and AI programs and projects in government and industry, Chris and Frank address the primary variable in the talent deficit – large numbers of qualified AI leaders. Whether you are a senior or mid-level leader who lacks hands-on experience with AI, or an AI practitioner who lacks leadership experience, Frank and Chris unpack the dynamics between AI programs, projects, people, and technology.  Research Questions:  Chris Whitlock suggests a question related to Large Language Models (LLM); how will LLMs perform with contemporary data feeds, novel, emergent topics? For example: intelligence summarizations? Frank Strickland believes that simulation technologies are ascendant and should be studied more.

During his 22 years of government service, he helped lead innovations including: evaluating and transitioning to production the nation's first long endurance unmanned aerial system; delivering intelligence to the tactical edge using narrow and wide-band technologies; and agile prototyping of big data analytics. The Director of Central Intelligence awarded him the National Intelligence Medal of Achievement in recognition of these accomplishments. He was the National Reconnaissance Office's (NRO) Legislative Director, and a member of CIA's Senior Intelligence Service, where he received the NRO's Medals of Distinguished and Superior Service. In the private sector he co-founded Edge Consulting and helped lead Edge's growth resulting in an acquisition by IBM. As a partner in IBM and subsequently Deloitte, he led large practices providing AI and analytics solutions and services to national security clients including innovations in massive scale property graphs and agent-based simulation.  Chris Whitlock completed undergrad in Oxford – Oxford MS – and began service as an Army infantry officer, then military analyst at CIA. He spent the majority of his 40-year career providing advanced analytics, AI, and management consulting services primarily to national security clients in the Department of Defense, Intelligence Community, and Department of State. He helped pioneer the rapid prototyping and integration of advanced algorithms with software applications starting in the early 1990s. In the past 10 years his work has emphasized machine learning and artificial intelligence applications. He led a large market offering in Deloitte Consulting focused on Mission Analytics and AI in addition to leading large programs for cabinet level departments. He co-founded an analytics company, Edge Consulting, personally leading the development of algorithmic approaches to quantify the value of intelligence. After an acquisition by IBM, he served as a Partner in IBM. If you notice parallels between Frank's and his careers, we are twins who were separated at birth.

“We rarely think about chips, yet they've created the modern world,” writes the historian Chris Miller.He's not exaggerating. Semiconductors don't just power our phones and computers; they also enable our cars, planes and home appliances to function. They are essential to everything from developing advanced military equipment to training artificial intelligence systems. Chips are the foundation of modern economic prosperity, military strength and geopolitical power.But semiconductors are also part of one of the most concentrated supply chains of any technology today. One Taiwanese company, TSMC, produces 90 percent of the most advanced chips. A single Dutch firm, ASML, produces all of the world's EUV lithography machines, which are essential to produce leading-edge chips. The entire industry is built like this.That doesn't just make the chip supply chain vulnerable to external shocks; it also makes it easily weaponizable by the powers that control it. In October, the Biden administration banned exports of advanced chips — and the equipment needed to produce those chips — to China. In August, President Biden signed into law the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act, which includes a $52 billion investment to on-shore U.S. chip manufacturing. China has invested tens of billions of dollars over the past decade to build a domestic semiconductor industry of its own. Chips have become to the geopolitics of the 21st century what oil was to the geopolitics of the 20th.There is no better or more timely explanation of the semiconductor industry — and the geopolitics that have formed around them — than Miller's new book, “Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology.” So I asked him on the show to talk me through what semiconductors are, why they matter and how they are shaping everything from U.S.-China relations and the Russia-Ukraine war to the Biden policy agenda and the future of A.I.Mentioned:“The Problem With Everything-Bagel Liberalism” by Ezra KleinBook Recommendations:The World For Sale by Javier Blas and Jack FarchyNexus by Jonathan Reed WinklerPrestige, Manipulation and Coercion by Joseph TorigianThoughts?

Microchips are the most important driver of technological progress in the modern world, and governments are fighting over who gets to make them. Right now, most cutting-edge chips are made in Taiwan, a country that China claims as part of its territory. The U.S. government is fighting to keep semiconductor technology out of China, and spending tens of billions of dollars to get companies to build more chip factories in the US. Chris Miller is a professor at Tufts University and the author of a book called Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology. In this episode, he talks with Jacob about the extraordinary technology and complex geopolitics of microchips.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What difference does it make to Americans what happens in Ukraine or the rest of Europe? Wouldn't Putin stop once he has Ukraine? Aren't we at risk of Russia using tactical nukes? Isn't Putin just a wise Christian man who's deeply concerned about woke ideology infecting western civilization?

De PlayStation VR2 is vanaf vandaag verkrijgbaar. Wij hebben de virtual reality-bril al een tijdje, maar nog niet iedereen heeft 'm op gehad. Erwin en Tonie beleven 'live' in de podcast hun eerste indruk. Zorgt deze VR-bril eindelijk voor de grote doorbraak?Virtual reality is al jaren op het randje van de grote doorbraak. Games worden steeds toffer en brillen worden beter. Toch moest je vooral een liefhebber zijn. De PlayStation VR2 is met zijn 600 euro nog steeds geen koopje, maar breder gezien krijg je er wel veel waar voor. Na onze reviews in video en in tekst proberen we de bril ook in de podcast. Erwin en Tonie hebben al een tijdje geen VR-bril meer gedragen, en duiken in deze aflevering in het virtuele diepe.Verder in het technieuws deze week: veel updates over Apple en over zonneautomaker Lightyear, dat op het nippertje geld heeft weten op te halen.Tips uit deze aflevering:Boek: Chip War: The fight for the World's Most Critical Technology. Een boek over hoe de chipindustrie is ontstaan. Hoe chips zijn uitgevonden, hoe dat groot kon worden in eerste instantie door de wapenindustrie. Alles komt voorbij, van Moore – van die wet van Moore – en Intel, Sony-medeoprichter Akio Morita, tot ons eigen ASML. En de opkomst van China op de chipmarkt, met alle geopolitieke gevolgen van dien.Serie: Shrinking op Apple TV+, met Jason Segel en Harrison Ford. Van de producten achter Ted Lasso, maar wel met een wat andere toon natuurlijk, maar het heeft hetzelfde soort snelheid. Elk personage is geschreven zodat je ervan gaat houden, zonder dat dit ten koste gaat van onderlinge strijd en grappen. Het verhaal gaat over een psycholoog, Segel, die vanwege onverwerkte rouw het gezeik van zijn patiënten beu raakt. En zijn baas, Harrison Ford, probeert dat op zijn eigen norse manier op te lossen. Mooi gefilmd ook, met lekker veel zomers licht – net of je op vakantie bent.Serie: Hello Tomorrow op Apple TV+. Een merkwaardige serie in een technologisch geavanceerde versie van de jaren '50, met ouderwets ogende jetpacks en robots in klassieke diners. En een verkoper die huisjes op de maan verkoopt, vertolkt door Billy Crudup die echt de show steelt. En al snel lijkt er toch meer aan de hand te zijn dan de vrolijke beelden doen vermoeden…Serie: Clarkson's Farm. Het tweede seizoen is nu toch uit op Amazon Prime Video, ook al was er sprake van dat dat niet zou gebeuren vanwege lompe uitspraken van Clarkson. Maar in dit seizoen charmeert hij toch weer met die lompe aanpak, en krijgt hij het vanuit zijn uit de hand gelopen hobbyboerderij aan de stok met de hele gemeente.Stand-up comedy: From Bleak to Dark op HBO Max. Een comedy-special met een donker randje van comedian Marc Maron, ook al jaren bekend van zijn podcast WTF. Hij weet grappen te maken over zijn rouwproces na de dood van zijn vriendin, die tijdens de coronapandemie onverwacht aan een acute ziekte overleed.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Maybe we can take stock of these predictions and see how much of it we got wrong (or right) at the end of this year!Beginning from this edition, we also introduce a new section to our newsletter called Biopolitik, while will cover all the fascinating tidbits about the biotechnology industry and its intersection with policy and politics.Be sure to check out our Reading Menu. This edition lists some of the best books that the authors have read from last year. With that, we wish you a great year ahead!Cyberpolitik #1: Regulatory tech battles in India— Shailesh ChitnisBig tech is vulnerable. For the first time in big-tech history, technology platforms are confronting slowing growth and bottom-line pressures. Aggressive expansion during the pandemic years has given way to cost-cutting during a cooling economy.Amazon recently announced plans to cut 18,000 workers, mostly in the retail, recruiting and devices businesses. Meta, the parent of Facebook and Instagram, has cut more than 11,000 workers, or about 13% of its staff. It's a similar story across other platforms — Salesforce, Snap, Twitter — no one seems immune.Against this backdrop, regulators are getting more active in reigning in what they see as an overreach by these platforms. In the past, Indian regulators had given technology platforms a free hand. But increasingly, the Indian government has signalled its intention to shape the country's technology landscape.In a series of rulings in October, the Competition Commission of India (CCI) fined Google almost Rs. 2,300 crores for abusing dominance with its Android operating system and the Play Store. The government is also getting into specifics of technology implementation with new rules around standardising chargers (USB-C) and upholding consumers' right-to-repair for devices.In 2023, expect more activity. The gatekeeping role of Apple and Google, which they exercise through their app stores, will be challenged. But since commissions from these stores are a significant revenue source for both these companies, any moves to change this structure will be a long legal battle. With the government's active role in market design, expect more public battles between incumbent tech and the government. Adding to the tech vs regulators battle, India will also be gearing up for general elections in 2024. As the elections draw closer, we can expect the conversations and controversies on the role of social media platforms in disseminating information to be pitched even further.Indeed, 2022 was a busy year for technology policy-making with the semiconductor manufacturing policy and a revised draft of the much-awaited digital data protection bill. But this year, the government has promised to introduce a complete overhaul of the IT Act, which governs much of the digital ecosystem. The IT Act was passed in 2000 and needs to be set up for all the complexity of the internet today - from intermediaries and platforms to AI and data privacy. We also expect the bill's first draft to cover a wide range of online platforms, including social media sites, e-commerce entities and ad-tech platforms.This act can have far-reaching consequences for businesses and civil society since all problems are now technology problems in some form.Biopolitik: Pandemics and regulatory politics— Saurabh TodiThe World Health Organisation (WHO) in 2023 is expected to accelerate negotiations on a draft international pandemic treaty governing prevention, preparedness, and response to future pandemics. The World Health Assembly (WHA) in December 2021 launched the process of negotiating a historical global accord. It established an International Negotiating Body (INB) to formulate a 'WHO convention, agreement or another international instrument' to aid a united global response to any infectious disease crises in the future. Countries felt the need for a new treaty due to various challenges made conspicuous by the experience of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. These include equitable distribution of vaccines and health services among and within countries, knowledge and data sharing, and strengthening countries' capabilities to respond to health emergencies. Although there has been a broad consensus on the ways of working and broad policies that will guide this process, there are also significant disagreements between member states.A central sticking point is the legal nature of this treaty. While the majority of the WHO member states favour a legally-binding instrument, there are differences in how to approach this issue. For example, the WHA has agreed to adopt the global instrument under Article 19 of the WHO constitution, which enables the assembly to draw up binding agreements on a wide range of issues under its mandate. But some countries want the treaty to fall under Article 21, which limits the number of topics that can have binding agreements. Furthermore, some prefer "non-legally binding recommendations" in the draft.In December 2022, at the third meeting of the Intergovernmental Negotiating Body (INB), a Conceptual Zero Draft (CZD) of the instrument was released, which has been developed by the Bureau of the INB following widespread consultation. During the meeting, the task fell on INB to develop a "zero draft" in order to start negotiations at the fourth INB meeting scheduled for February 2023. The WHO has committed itself to a timeline where INB will deliver a progress report to the 76th World Health Assembly in 2023 and; submit an outcome document for consideration by the 77th World Health Assembly in 2024.Interestingly, India has maintained a studied silence over its position on this proposed treaty. As an advocate of the interests of the global south, it must ensure the security of the interests of the developing countries during these negotiations. Given the difference of opinion among countries on these issues, it would be interesting to see how the global community reaches a consensus on this crucial initiative.Antariksh Matters: A Space Policy at Last?— Aditya RamanathanAgainst my better judgement, I am going to make predictions that may be largely wrong. First, the easy part: sometime in 2023, the Indian government will release a Space Policy. While the release of this policy has been long-promised, it is more likely than not to be finally made public this year. Now, the more difficult part: predicting some of the broad contours of the policy. I'll start with some brief background. In 2017, the government released a draft Space Activities Bill for comments. The bill was an important step in laying down a legal framework under which space companies can operate. However, the feedback wasn't good. The bill had vague definitions and granted excessive discretionary authority to government officials. As an example of vagueness, the bill only covered Indians or private entities registered in India, leaving foreign collaborators in a regulatory dead zone.Similarly, it defined ‘space activity' so broadly that even a start-up doing preliminary research and development might find itself coping with a barrage of licensing requirements. The draft bill also offers little clarity on liability. India is a signatory to the 1972 Liability Convention, which makes states liable for damage caused by space activities. The bill simply states that the government will decide the amount of money for which a private entity is liable - the sort of provision that is virtually guaranteed to scare off investors. A lot has changed since 2017. The government has pledged to revise the 2017 draft bill based on comments received. It has also created the Indian National Space Promotion and Authorisation Centre (IN-SPACe) to act as a nodal agency for private space companies. The next steps are to release a Space Policy followed by the heavily modified Space Activities Bill. So here are my three predictions for the Space Policy:One, the policy will be genuinely oriented towards encouraging private sector space activity and will identify it as a key priority for India. There's enough evidence that the government takes this seriously. The private space economy is (rightly or wrongly) seen as an important component of the “Atmanirbhar Bharat” vision of a self-reliant India. The space economy is also seen as a key catalyst for high-technology industries. The Indian Prime Minister's push for the creation of the industry body Indian Space Association (ISpA) is indication enough that this support extends to the apex of the political leadership. Two, despite this commitment to private industry, the verbiage of the space policy will still place the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) at the centre of India's space aspirations. Indeed, it is quite likely that the policy will consider the primary role of India's private sector to be a supporting ecosystem for ISRO rather than a dynamic entity in its own right. This is a somewhat shakier prediction to make, and it is, more than anything else, a hunch based on statements made by ISRO officials and an awareness of the influence ISRO and the Department of Space wield. Three, the policy will likely offer a potential solution to the issue of liability. I suspect the proposal it will come up with is the creation of a space liability fund that can act as a sort of insurance pool. Typically, such funds will be built by space companies pledging a portion of their profits, but the details would probably only become clear in the Space Activities Bill. So that's my largely optimistic prediction for 2023. Whatever the actual outcomes, we'll dissect them in detail for you in this newsletter.Cyberpolitik #2: In Service of the Digital Public Infrastructure— Bharath ReddyAs we enter 2023, we will see increased deployment of different facets of digital public infrastructure (DPI). As we have seen with UPI, this can lead to financial inclusion and empowerment of citizens, but it comes at the cost of centralising platforms in the hands of the government.Different facets of DPI, such as the Account Aggregator framework, Open Credit Enablement Network, UHI for health, and enhancements to Aadhaar and Digilocker, are expected to be deployed and adopted widely. These improvements will likely lead to the seamless delivery of services and unlock easy access to citizens' data across different silos. In addition to this, as Rahul Matthan writes, DPI will also serve as a techno-legal framework for data governance. Across the world, governing how data is collected and used has proved to be a challenge. Regulations have yet to be successful. Companies have been able to circumvent the law, and the capacity required for enforcement is also relatively high. Moreover, since DPI can be encoded into the public infrastructure, they might offer a better solution for compliance. Requests for data, consent and provision of minimal purpose-specific data can be built into the infrastructure, making compliance easier to enforce.However, these advantages come at the cost of concentrating power over the platforms in the hands of the state. The state has access to large amounts of citizens' personal data and is responsible for safeguarding it. It also has regulatory control and gatekeeping privileges for these critical platforms. Concerns over regulatory access are critical given that we expect the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill (DPDPB) and Telecom Bill to be tabled in Parliament this year. The broad exemptions granted to government entities and the lack of independence of the proposed Data Protection Board in the draft DPDPB, 2022, are a cause for concern. The draft Telecom Bill 2022 has expansive definitions and allows for greater state surveillance. Since both bills have received comments already, we can expect them to be passed this year. The checks and balances they will enforce will play a crucial role.Our Reading Menu[Book] Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology by Chris Miller.[Book] 10% Human: How Your Body's Microbes Hold the Key to Health and Happiness by Allana Collen.[Book] Human-Build World: How to Think about Technology and Culture by Thomas P.

With the International Monetary Fund set to unveil its twice-yearly World Economic Outlook tomorrow, we're joined by former IMF Chief Economist Kenneth Rogoff to find out what we can expect to hear. Shares in US semiconductor firms fell on Monday after Joe Biden announced restrictions on exports of microchips and chip manufacturing equipment to China. Chris Miller, author of Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology, explains how we got to this point. With the US mid-term elections less than four weeks away, we begin a week-long look at what is often termed “dark money” in U.S. political campaigns.

There's always been a global race to develop chip technology

Semiconductors are ubiquitous in modern life, powering our appliances, smartphones, cars and electronics. That's led to soaring demand from consumers, companies and governments much to the chip industry's benefit, but its centrality to the global economy has also brought heightened scrutiny from analysts concerned by the deep dependency we have on a handful of companies around the world producing these products. The semiconductor industry is now on the front pages of news sites almost daily, but its story and history show that this isn't a new development, but rather a continuation of decades of globalization and competitions for international economic supremacy. “Securities” host Danny Crichton is joined by Fletcher School professor Chris Miller, whose new book “Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology” offers a panoramic global view on one of the world's most important industries. The book has already been shortlisted for best business book of the year by The Financial Times.

Semiconductor chips are part of the technology we use every day — electric toothbrushes, mobile phones, computers. And there are hundreds, if not thousands, of them in new vehicles. But since the COVID-19 pandemic began, chips have been in short supply, causing, for example, some automakers to pause production lines. Some big tech firms predict the shortage will last into next year and perhaps beyond. Marketplace’s Kimberly Adams speaks with Chris Miller, author of the new book “Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology.” He explains why this shortage happened.

Modern life depends on microchips for the function of everything tech, from microwaves to phones to airplanes to drones. As important as microchips are though, their supply chain is just as fragile. In this episode of China Unscripted, we talk about the importance of microchips to the world economy, how a Chinese invasion of Taiwan could break the microchip supply chain, and how China is trying to shore up its chip manufacturing to insulate it from supply chain breaks.
