World Business Report

We look at the AI boom in detail, in the wake of comments by Sundar Pichai, the head of Google, in a BBC interview. He acknowledges the risks of a potential AI bubble. We hear the thoughts of a Nobel Prize-winning economist as well. Also, what have the US and Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince gained by the latest state visit to the White House? And why TotalEnergies, the French oil giant, is facing charges over a massacre in Mozambique. You can contact us on WhatsApp or send us a voicenote: +44 330 678 3033.
