Chip War: The Fight for the World’s Most Critical Technology with Chris Miller
We’re in a race today to control one of the world’s most critical resources – microchips – with the United States and China increasingly in conflict. This race for control does not entail just the quantity of chips produced, but also includes efforts to stay steps ahead of the latest developments in design and computing power. In this week’s episode of Confluence, host Rana Sakar is joined by Chris Miller, author of Chip War: The Fight for the World's Most Critical Technology, to break down current conflicts in the semiconductor industry and put them into historical context. Chris shares views on policies that support the development of chip fabrication capacity; insights on how semiconductors became the fulcrum of geopolitical and geoeconomic competition; and lessons from this history can be applied today and into the future.
