Can Transatlantic Cooperation Transform the China Tech Race? (with Peter Brown)

China has invested heavily in the telecommunications and internet infrastructure of the developing world. In the face of that significant head start, how might Europe and the US team up to catch up in the 5G influence race? What has the EU-US Trade and Technology Council (TTC) accomplished so far towards that end and others? Are we heading into more of a Brussels Effect on tech regulation? What does good AI governance look like? All of this and more are discussed with the European Parliament’s Senior Advisor on Technology Policy, Peter Brown.In this installment, Shane walks us through just how behind the US is on 5G abroad compared to China, how dangerous emulating European AI policy can become, and how effective the TTC has been in considering both issues. The situation is a moving target, but between Peter and Shane, nothing flies under the radar.
