A Eye on AI is a fast-moving briefing on how artificial intelligence is reshaping the world — not for engineers or AI insiders, but for the professionals, business leaders, and everyday people navigating its effects. Each episode tracks the latest developments through three lenses: international relations and trade, business and industry, and everyday life — always asking not just what happened, but who it affects and why it matters. Reporting is grounded, measured, and sourced — we follow the evidence, not speculation.
