Are we in a new Cold War? Today on the show, George Takach discusses the historical context of Cold War 1.0 and contrasts it with the current geopolitical landscape, focusing on the role of artificial intelligence in the new battle between China, Russia, and America. He also explores the potential conflict between China and Taiwan, the role of the US military in the region, and the interdependence of global economies.

George Takach is the author of the new book Cold War 2.0: Artificial Intelligence in the New Battle between China, Russia, and America. For forty years, he practiced technology law at McCarthy Tétrault, Canada’s premier law firm. He holds a bachelor’s degree in history, political economy, and philosophy from the University of Toronto; a graduate degree from the Norman Paterson School of International Affairs at Carleton University; and a law degree from the University of Toronto.
