Dr. Kai-Fu Lee - one of the world's foremost AI pioneers, former President of Google China, and bestselling author of AI Superpowers - joins Schwarzman College for a fireside chat on AI in a Multipolar World: Technology, Power, and the Future of Global Leadership.

The conversation will explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping innovation, economic development, and geopolitical dynamics across regions. Drawing on his experience building AI companies and ecosystems in China, the United States, and the rest of the world, Dr. Lee will share perspectives on the evolving global AI landscape, the rise of open-source models, and the opportunities and risks facing emerging economies.

The session will also examine what leadership means in an AI-driven world, and how the next generation of global leaders can navigate a future where technology, policy, and power are increasingly interconnected.
