After almost a century of post-war prosperity and unrivaled American power, we've entered a new era, growing uncertainty and realignment as many of the world's nations now seek to challenge that dominance. And the race for American dominance in the development of artificial intelligence by just a tiny handful of tech billionaires has seemed to put us all on yet an even more perilous path.
If the world is changing at a dizzying pace, the forces driving that change are markedly different than they were a century ago.
In this, our first season, we're going to look at the impact of China in the years ahead. We will look at China's astonishing progress in new energy technologies, battery innovation and EV production, as well as its conflict with American power over semiconductors and microchips and the geopolitical significance of Taiwan. And we will look.
At the transformative force, for better or worse, of one single man, Xi Jinping, President of the People's Republic of China.

In this episode of Mortal Giants we're going to look at the new race for power – literally. The United States is challenging Asia for dominance in production of the tiny semiconductor chips that help reduce reliance on fossil fuels and will expand and advance artificial intelligence. And technological power will be the key to national power in this century. And to the competition between the U.S. and China.
Mortal Giants is hosted by Sandy Garossino and Vina Najibullah. Sandy is a former crown prosecutor and has been the public affairs columnist for Canada’s National Observer responsible for some groundbreaking investigations. Vina is the vice-president of Research and Strategy at the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada. She is a frequent media commentator on geopolitics, Canadian foreign policy, and Canada- Asia relations.
