Is AI the new frontier of the wealth gap? Join me and tech industry expert Pierre Ferragu as we unpack this critical question, drawing parallels to the transformative yet divisive technological shifts of the late 1990s. Pierre shares his groundbreaking research on what he provocatively terms "Artificial Stupidity," challenging our assumptions about AI's role in concentrating wealth. Together, we navigate the echoes of history, considering AI's potential to mirror the post-dot-com evolution of the internet and the looming risks of over-optimism.

From the dominance of the US in AI design and manufacturing to the fierce competition in the chip market, we map out the landscape where innovation and rivalry coexist. The strategic significance of Taiwan's TSMC, the rise of China's government-backed ventures, and Tesla's relentless pursuit of full autonomy are all part of this intricate puzzle. We also shine a spotlight on NVIDIA's reign in the chip arena, while pondering Intel's struggles and AMD's promising potential. With these insights, prepare to explore the complex dynamics shaping the future of technology and its far-reaching implications.
