Tech war between China and the USA - and where does that leave Europe?
Thursday, 28/11/2024 / 07:30 PM / Stadtbibliothek (municipal library)
A battle for technological supremacy is raging between the world powers China and the USA. It's about artificial intelligence, superchips and computers, new medicines, self-driving cars and flights to the moon and Mars. But it is also about killer drones and combat robots. China has caught up enormously in many of these new technologies in recent years and is on a par with the USA, which is still the leader. Can Europe keep up in this duel or is it just a spectator? And how will the election result in the USA affect the various relationships? Wolfgang Hirn will discuss this with Dr. Christine Althauser and our audience after the reading. Please register at info@ki-freiburg.de. An event in cooperation with China Forum Freiburg, China Netzwerk Baden-Württemberg, Colloqium politicum, Institute for Sinology at the University campus Freiburg and Confucius Institute Freiburg.
Admission is free.
