Is China Beating Us? (with Evan Osnos)

What this episode covers

What did the Trump-Xi summit reveal about the future of global power? On a new episode of Stay Tuned, New Yorker staff writer Evan Osnos joins Preet Bharara just after returning from Beijing, where he covered the Trump-Xi summit and the rapidly evolving relationship between the United States and China. They discuss Trump and Xi’s contrasting leadership styles, Taiwan, NATO, America’s standing in the world, and the growing race between the U.S. and China to shape the future of artificial intelligence. The conversation also explores what AI could mean for journalism, creativity, and human originality itself. Then, Preet shares some reflections from the Bruce Springsteen Tour. In the bonus for Insiders, Preet and Evan continue their conversation with a discussion about billionaires, political power, and why Americans remain both skeptical of wealth and deeply aspirational about success.
