  • Ian Bremmer: How Algorithms Reshape Global Power

    Ian Bremmer: How Algorithms Reshape Global Power
    Feb 10 2026

    Power no longer starts with governments. It starts with algorithms.

    In this episode, Ian Bremmer, founder and president of Eurasia Group, explains how power in the 21st century is shifting away from states and toward the companies and systems that program human behavior. Drawing on decades of advising world leaders and CEOs, Bremmer argues this change is unprecedented in speed, scale, and impact on humanity.


    You’ll learn:

    • Why tech companies now hold power once reserved for governments
    • How algorithms shape identity, behavior, and social order
    • What this shift means for global stability and leadership
    • The biggest mistake leaders are making in today’s power transition


    If you want to understand who really controls power today — and where it’s headed next — this conversation is essential.

  • Using AI to Save Water: Why Farmers Matter Most

    Using AI to Save Water: Why Farmers Matter Most
    Jan 27 2026
    We’re panicking about AI’s water use and missing the real problem.Jairo Trad, co-founder and CEO of Kilimo, explains why farmers sit at the center of the global water crisis, and how AI, used the right way, can dramatically reduce water waste at scale.Speaking with Philip Meissner, Jairo shares how Kilimo delivers AI-driven irrigation advice by simple text messages, without sensors or hardware, and why incentives matter more than regulation.In this episode, you’ll discover:- Why 70–90% of global water use happens in agriculture, not data centers- How AI without sensors helps farmers know exactly when to irrigate- Why paying farmers to save water finally makes large-scale change possible- How companies now invest in water security near their own facilities- What a future looks like where water is no longer the limiting factorThis is a clear, pragmatic conversation about fixing water systems — not with guilt or panic, but with smarter incentives that actually work.👉 Watch now to see why the path to water security starts on farms, not in server rooms.
