Explore three potential pathways for artificial intelligence's future in this 10-minute TED talk featuring technology expert Alvin W. Graylin in conversation with TED Radio Hour host Manoush Zomorodi. Drawing from decades of experience working in technology across the United States and China, Graylin presents three distinct scenarios: a future where tech giants accumulate unprecedented wealth creating a class of trillionaires, one where AI competition escalates into warfare, and an alternative where humanity collectively builds and shares AI technology for the common good. Cut through the AI hype and gain clarity on the critical choices facing society as we determine which path to pursue. Recorded at TEDNext 2025, this conversation provides a balanced perspective on AI's potential trajectories and the decisions that will shape our technological future.
