Artificial intelligence and geopolitics: Sam Altman (OpenAI), Dario Amodei (Anthropic), and Demis Hassabis (Google DeepMind) sat at the G7 table alongside presidents and prime ministers for the first time. It was not a symbolic photo — it was a statement about where power resides in 2026.

Artificial intelligence and geopolitics: Sam Altman (OpenAI), Dario Amodei (Anthropic), and Demis Hassabis (Google DeepMind) sat at the G7 table alongside presidents and prime ministers for the first time. It was not a symbolic photo — it was a statement about where power resides in 2026.

In this episode, we analyze what was discussed at the Évian-les-Bains summit: the proposal for a U.S.-led international AI coalition, China’s exclusion from access to chips and frontier models, the “trusted partners” framework for allies, and Europe’s warning about technological dependence. AI is no longer a matter for companies — it is national security, foreign policy, and the balance of global power.
