The New Power Race: AI, Ethics, and the Future of our Planet

Power, ethics, and technology are being rewritten in realtime. Artificial intelligence is changing how the world works and who holds the reins.

We’re joined by Anne Marie Engtoft Meldgaard, Denmark’s TechAmbassador and head of the country’s pioneering TechPlomacy initiative - a diplomatic mission that stands at the intersection of governments, Big Tech, and global governance.

Our conversation explores some of the most defining questions of our time: if tech and AI development are a race, what happens when we prioritize speed over wisdom? Do we inherently then compromise ethics?

Why we need to understand technology as deeply securityrelated? In this context, why is it important that Europe has a say and we don’t leave our future up to two global superpowers?

We ask if regions like Europe can catch up to increase their tech sovereignty; can we infuse meaning, purpose and community into how AI is adopted, and can we retain agency and remain human?
