Michael opens with retired four-star Admiral James Stavridis for a rapid-fire look at Iran, the Houthis, Ukraine, and the growing danger of humans weaponizing artificial intelligence. Then, after weeks of warnings about runaway AI and its potential for catastrophe, Michael turns to the other side of the story: how AI is already being used for good in education, medicine, public health, and everyday life. Is AI our greatest emerging threat—or one of our most powerful tools? Original air date 21 September 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
