U.S. Senator Mark Warner is a three-term Virginia senator and vice chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee. Senator Warner joins Big Technology to discuss whether Washington is prepared for the economic and societal disruptions of rapidly advancing AI. Tune in to hear why Warner believes recent college graduate unemployment could surge from 9% to 30% and why he's more frightened than reassured about Congress's ability to respond at speed. We also cover the Anthropic-Pentagon relationship, AI romantic relationships, data center opposition polling, and the ongoing battle over congressional stock trading. Hit play for a rare conversation with one of the few senators who actually understands what's at stake.
