Summary
Artificial intelligence is transforming the global economy — but will America stay ahead? In this audio edition of Exploring Prosperity , host Robert Dewey examines whether U.S. innovation can outpace regulation, comparing today’s AI revolution to past eras when new technologies reshaped productivity, jobs, and global power.

Topics include: * The real drivers of America’s AI edge * How overregulation could slow innovation * Lessons from past technology revolutions * The global race for AI leadership Listen to understand how policy choices today could decide whether AI accelerates prosperity — or stifles it.
