TALKING POLITICS

Predictions for 2030 with Azeem Azhar

An extra episode with Azeem Azhar, tech entrepreneur and host of the Exponential View podcast and newsletter. We talk about Azeem's predictions for what will shape politics and technology over the next decade, from climate change to artificial intelligence. Plus we discuss the Dominic Cummings agenda: will the UK government really be able to harness the dynamism of the tech start-up mindset within the hidebound structures of Whitehall?  This is the first of a two part special - you can find the other half of this conversation in a couple of days at <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/exponential-view-with-azeem-azhar/id1172218725" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/exponential-view-with-azeem-azhar/id1172218725</a> Azeem's newsletter is here: <a href="https://www.exponentialview.co/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.exponentialview.co/</a> and the blog by Dominic cummings here: <a href="https://dominiccummings.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://dominiccummings.com/</a>
