Democracy in the Age of Quantum + AI
About This Event
As emerging technologies reshape everything from elections to economies, public trust and understanding are more important than ever. At the Global Quantum Forum, new national polling data reveals what Americans really think about quantum and AI. Dina Smeltz and Kate Weber join moderator Ethan Bueno de Mesquita to discuss what these views mean for policy, perception, and the future of public life.

While still forming their views on these technologies, more say they are concerned about the potential risks than excited about the opportunities.
