Episode 357: 100 Years to Extinction: Dr Peter Solomon on Emerging Technologies and the Risks that Come with Them
Sunday, 3 May, 2026
This episode hosts Dr Peter Solomon to examine the widening gap between our capacity to build transformative technologies and our ability to govern them, with a particular focus on the international risks that emerge when innovation outpaces regulation. The conversation explores how rapid technological advancement is reshaping the global risk landscape at unprecedented speed and scale, with artificial intelligence, autonomous systems, and emerging technologies creating governance vacuums that states and institutions are struggling to fill. We discuss how the risks of ungoverned technology are understood in practice, breaking it down across the domains of development, deployment, and geopolitical competition, and why these risks remain largely absent from mainstream policy and security frameworks.Peter R.
