Can AI be deployed in ways that enhance equality, or will AI systems exacerbate existing structural inequalities and create new inequities? The Artificial Intelligence & Equality podcast seeks to understand the innumerable ways in which AI affects equality and international affairs.

The advent of the age of data is a formidable accelerator of history. As society faces a crisis of politics compounded by the emergence of powerful virtual communities competing with territorial communities, are we on the cusp of an earthquake in the history of humanity? In this "Artificial Intelligence & Equality" podcast, Senior Fellow Anja Kapsersen is joined by Professor Jean-Marie Guéhenno for a thought-provoking conversation about his new book "The First XXI Century: From Globalization to Fragmentation."

ANJA KASPERSEN: In today's podcast I am delighted to welcome an old friend, Jean-Marie Guéhenno. Jean-Marie will share with us profound and thought-provoking insights from his new book, The First XXI Century: From Globalization to Fragmentation, as well as reflections on current events based on his long and distinguished career in international diplomacy.
