The United States is racing to ensure it remains the leader in artificial intelligence. Central to America’s AI boom is the US-Taiwan relationship, wherein American software and Taiwanese manufacturing combine to create the world’s most advanced AI servers.

But the future of AI is uncertain. Policymakers are increasingly concerned about AI’s social effects and that undemocratic countries like China will exploit technological advancements for malign and repressive goals.

What can the US and Taiwan learn from each other about AI development? And how can Washington and Taipei ensure that belligerent governments like Beijing cannot exploit AI to their advantage? Join Hudson for a discussion on challenges and key areas for cooperation in the global AI development competition.
